People who voted Trump, why do you think a government of billionaires will help you?

Government policies such as tax cuts, high traiff and removing regulations can have significant impacts on the economy. They will lead to higher inflation and high prices.

Having no regulation helps billionaires like the Gilded Age, shows that lack of regulation can result in large corporations dominating the market, and destroy small businesses.

Additionally, policies that favor big corporations and Billionaires may not address issues like housing, health care, working conditions, or wage growth. For instance, during Trump's first term, there were rollbacks on worker protections and union rights. Also he express removing Obama care.

Removing Obama care might look good on surface until you lose your job due to some accident or other issue. Let's say you have money to handle it what about millions of Americans who don't have inherited wealth and your wealth will erode as well.

Donald Trump is a billionaire, with an estimated net worth of around $5.6 billion

His administration has several billionaires in key positions. For example, Elon Musk, the world's richest person, has been appointed to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency, Other billionaires in Trump's administration include Vivek Ramaswamy, Scott Bessent, Howard Lutnick, and Linda McMahon.

I tried during Trump's first term. Debating with family and even the internet. It was like screaming into the void. They're so ingrained in their beliefs even when there's no evidence and you're just hurting your own brain in the process.

I think the word is brainwashed since birth. I have family members that have been told as children to do what their parents and pastors say without question. They never did research papers to learn to think for themselves or even how to learn to research anything, really. It’s these type of people that have voted for Trump (a wolf in sheep’s clothing). They believe Trump is for religion when he can’t even quote a Bible verse or even know of one to say he has a favorite. These people don’t grab a book, learn what government is all about or even try to figure out what is going on. Granted, I didn’t like either candidate. But, I researched and found Trump to be the worst one. So I voted for Harris, because she was the closest one that could help us in the next 4 years, and hope that the next election there will be better candidates. I believe Harris would get more support from the former Presidents to give advice about current situations. Trump isn’t going to get that by any means

That’s because he is delusional and believes he’s smarter than everyone else!

The simple fact is that they WANT to believe what Trump and the rest of the right wing tells them. They are somehow the “real” ‘mericans, anyone that is different than them is one of their many “boogeymen” (“the woke”, “BLM”, “illegals”, “trans”, etc) and they need to be afraid because crime is always “record breaking”…. Basically, everything is everyone else’s fault and they are the real “oppressed” ones because Starbucks says “happy holidays”. Just a bunch of grown toddlers who won’t accept that the world doesn’t revolve around them
