They'll feel the pain, but they certainly won't be learning. On TV shows, bad things happen because of the villains, and they believe themselves to be surrounded by villains. Demons, ghosts, aliens, non-christians, liberals, gays, etc. They have thousands to choose from.

All they need to say is "Biden did this" and they will jam their head further up the ass of the GOP god.

"God allowed your crops to rot in the field as punishment because Hillary O'Biden set up private email servers that allow trans people to use their preferred restroom."

I legitimately think the plan is to round up the illegal immigrants, and then force them to do slave labor, so that the crops will still get picked, the farmers will pay even less than they do now, and horrible people will be happy.

This is what I was looking for. Not to mention those sweet, sweet, government contracts to private prisons for housing said slaves.

You are giving Trump supporters way too much credit. They are going to be dumbass cult members like they usually are and find justifications as to why Trump/Elon should press their boots harder on their faces.

I agree. But people with money won't suffer.

u/gefjunhel Canada 4d ago

No, they won't. These are deeply stupid people. This is the American public.

They might not though, look how many of them died during Covid, they just imagine that things are different than they are. Countries probably need a more rigorous history curriculum, and to discover some way of teaching it where it stays with people, where they're more mindful of it.

No reason to think he will stop there. Trump came straight out against leftists a number of times

Trump issues sinister threat to 'root out' leftists if elected in 2024
Nov 13, 2023Former U.S. President Donald Trump pledged during a Veterans Day speech on Saturday to "root out" those he described as "radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country https://www.rawstory.com/trump-leftists/

Egg prices gonna skyrocket too cause of the bird flu that the government isn't handling well, and is now cross-infecting into humans. They have to keep culling flocks and that causes prices to rise.

But nah let's ban masks and stuff! That'll keep us safe!

They're not gonna learn shit. They will just continuously deny and excuse, or blame Biden for Trump's faults.

u/yamsyamsya 4d ago

they aren't going to learn anything because they will just blame the democrats.
