I really don't want to see a Trump presidency because of all the chaos that will ensue, but the teeny little diabalical part of me really wants him to lose his job because of it. This motherfucker is literally being saved by Joe Biden, but he's too stupid to see it.
I have heard that, in the UK, there was a correlation between areas that receiving EU funding and areas that voted most heavily for Brexit.
The UK government did not keep up that funding.
We should start listening to these people then and start giving them what they're asking for: No help at all and an expectation that these chucklefucks "pull themselves up by their own bootstraps" like they've told everyone the fuck else for a hundred years.
You keep voting to get no help? Okay, you got it. We'll never help your stupid asses again. That's what you wanted, right? To succeed by your own hard work and nothing else? Let's see how it works out for you considering we've been propping up your economic dead weight areas for decades.
As a taxpayer, I'm more than happy to stop giving these fucking losers money if they keep saying they don't want any of it.
So let British Steel fucking die and let these people eat their own fucking words and deeds. Cry me a fucking river, this is what you voted for.
I keep saying it, the US should split up in two countries so the red States can finally become the third world country they want to be.
