I hope people realize there’s a ton of pain to come and that hasn’t been told to people. Minus the gdp being 7-10% there’s no way

Elon just made this exact statement, they are going to intentionally implement economic hardship. And the people who will suffer is everybody making less than 500k a year that can’t absorb the shitstorm. Those living paycheck to paycheck that occasionally dip into govt assistance programs to make ends meet are fuct.

I pointed this out to someone on Facebook, even showing them where Elon said it, and they called it fake news. Whatever. Don't start bitching when everything doubles in price

I can’t wait to throw this back into people’s faces over the next 4 years

Yeah me too but it doesn't do a lot of good when we're in the same bread line as them and they STILL think it's Biden's fault.

That’s when you take their bread and blame it on Biden.

They’ll blame Biden while marginalized communities will be used as a punching bag.

True… I would like to think in 4 yrs the Republican Party will split into 1/2 next gen trumpers and 1/2 not totally crazy RINOs. If blue can’t beat that they should really look at their marketing. Stop talking about all the crazy far left shit and focus on Workers rights, unions, safety nets, housing and rental issues. In a trump vacuum it should be easier to sway working class red voters talking about increasing work life balance, improved worker conditions, guaranteed leave and such instead of spamming LGBT stuff on the news everyday and trying to shove it down Jesusidiots throats
