    The most annoying thing over the next few years is going to be listening to:

    “What happened to my helthcare?” "You voted for Trump who promised to take it away. " “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

    “Why are the prices of groceries so high?” “You voted for Trump who promised to deport all the illegal farm workers who picked your food for low wages.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

    “Why did my daughter/wife/girlfriend/mother die in a hospital parking lot?” “You voted for Trump who promised to make life saving healthcare for women illegal nation wide.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

    “What happened to the minimum wage?” “You voted for Trump who promised to lower it.” “But I didn’t think it would effect me!”

    “What happened to the Palestinians?” “You voted for Trump/voted for a third party candidate which allowed Trump to rise to power then he gave Netanyahu the go ahead to wipe them out.” “But I didn’t think that would happen to my family!”

    Suck it up. This is your bed. You shat it in. Now lie there and be quiet. We’re tired of your bullshit.

      Honestly, I think it’ll be worth drilling the fact that it’s the Republican Party, not just Trump. Otherwise, folks deep in the cult will just use the current figurehead as a scapegoat for everything wrong with the party without acknowledging that the party itself works against them.

      They probably will, anyway, but it’s worth a shot.

      “Why did graphics cards quadruple in price?”

      “You voted for Trump, who supported China steamrolling Taiwan, and now all of TSMCs foundries are bricked.”
