  But 30% of voting age Americans would still vote for him because he’s arresting brown people they don’t know.

  The joke is that costs haven’t even truly gone up from his taxes yet. Just wait until after the midterms when the legislation they passed is scheduled to take effect.

  The average American is so fucked.

    I made peace with my country
    Though I never could believe
    Somebody else’s struggle
    Is the reason that I flee

    Can you carry more
    If you leave me back?
    What’s left to take?
    Who’s lives come last?

    – Excerpts from “Reverend” by Greensky Bluegrass

    These lines from a brand new bluegrass song of all things have been living rent free in my mind. I’m not particularly oppressed, but witnessing the oppression of others has me wanting to leave. Once we run off all the immigrants, and all the people like me leave, will the people who vote for fascism and hatred in this country be able to keep it all from falling apart?

      Most people can’t afford to leave. Enjoy the privilege.

    I get the sentiment, but I haven’t seen a billionaire I’d want to put my mouth on.

      Can’t imagine you’d want to put your mouth on a pig or cow either, but properly butchered and prepared, they are quite palatable.

      I imagine it’s the same principle.

  Maybe they shouldn't have voted for an orange dipshit named Trump. Americans deserve what they voted for, even the ones that didn't vote. Fuck both groups
