Canada sends it's regards
Clearly, this was Biden and Obama's fault. -Fox News /s
Point and laugh
Lmao
And nothing of value was lost
Except the jobs of those people more than likely... Meaning the town will suffer depending on its size.
Edit: the population of Clermont KY is 478 according to a quick search.
So the town may just die
Most of whom voted for Trump. It sucks for them but the US isn’t going to get better until the people supporting the GOP learn some really hard lessons
I agree that they mostly voted for it. But it sucks to cheer for people to suffer because they were swindled.
They weren't swindled, he was president once already. Anyone claiming to not have seen this coming is either too stupid to care about or lying.
Seriously, if they voted for Trump in 2024 they are either heartless or brainless. Probably both. Those soulless shells of people have less sense than the dead people they think keep voting for Democrats.
Their kids and disabled family members get my sympathy, but the grownups who chose this? They had it coming.
Brainless and cruel. I know some absolute morons who still vote democratic because they're fundamentally good people. They don't hate people on the basis of being gay, or race, so they vote democratic.
We say they are stupid because they don't have the same information we have. We run in different circles, and read different information intentionally.
But there are neurosurgeons out there who live in towns where everyone watches Fox News and such and everyone around them repeats the same shit, and they believe Biden caused the inflation, and Trump did nothing wrong and was going to fix inflation with a magic wand and no policies to do so. It is enforced by everyone/thing around them. Should they realize, yeah.. but that neurosurgeon isn't "stupid", they are ignorant.
I don't think they are stupid. I think they are greedy and cruel. In the past that could lead to them getting ahead of their fellow Americans. The reality is that they are now in the pool of people who are hurt by greed and cruelty and they were willfully blind to it. Many GOP voters would still vote for exactly what is happening to them right now if only it would affect people they hate (everyone) more than it affects them. American "exceptionalism" and "individualism" contributed to this.
Let’s see how they vote next time
I hate to tell you but, you're going to be very disappointed.
They'll vote the way they are told to by the companies owned by the people who's interests don't line up with theirs.
We say they are stupid, but the news tells them what to think, it agrees with everything their friends are saying because they watch the same news, and it isn't likely they are going to suddenly say something that is against all of the people around them.
Parties are a terrible way to do democracy.
Well, they do have a Dem governor. Unlike my state they don't guzzle the red koolaid (WV).
I still hate them for continually voting in the fucking geriatric turtle though.
don't worry… they also believe in ultimate personal responsibility
We need to stop giving them grace they don’t deserve.
I agree but it’s also valuable to remember that they’ve been subjected to a hostile system from birth. They should know better but it’s ultimately the people exploiting everyone that are the root cause of it all
And nothing of value was lost.
Your shit whiskey gives me heartburn.
Male it forever. Get fucked.
Make it Buttery Males Forever!
lol I'm gonna leave it 😆
I love to see the good news!
Kentucky might flip blue. What do y'all think?
