(11,532 posts)The idiots who voted for them seem to have very faulty memories.
But when you support fascism what do you expect?
The only difference now is that you have 2 psychopaths running the federal government and they are definitely going to end Social Security this time. It's going to happen, just like they forced women back into being baby machines.
All the old ladies who live off of their dead husband's social security here in rural TN who voted in the Trump-Musk presidency (or should that be the Musk-Trump presidency? At least Musk doesn't have dementia....or does he?), are going to starve to death.
They have no income except their dead husband's social security. They live in small trailers on a little bit of land they inherited from relatives. They all voted for Trump. I talk to them regularly. They love Trump and some have even equated him with their gods.
And now comes the part of the con where you lose every cent you own. They bought into the con so now they will have to pay. I hope they enjoy eating every other day and living in chicken coops.

(5,517 posts)If enough people dependent upon SS, and the family and friends of people who are dependent upon SS stand up and fight in every way the resistance spectrum will allow, then we have the power to fend them off.
If we dont fight like our lives depend on it, well, we get what we deserve.

At least my northern hometown voted D in the middle of the sea of Rs. The difference is the education. I don't believe AL has laws about keeping children in school where in my hometown, nobody skipped school and got away with it. As a childless 65 y o, I will never understand that stupidity.

(8,495 posts)so cable tv wasn't even available back then. It's the dumbing down of children and ignoring children that don't show up to school.
