“They voted for Trump to punish the Democrats.”

Oh, that didn’t work. Losing elections isn’t the same as being punished. Not saying it was a bad move, I’m saying it was the wrong one. It was also a bad move though.

“All Harris had to do was stop the war.”

Oh is that it? Just as a VP / figurehead, swoop on over and say, “Stop it.” Man, why hasn’t anyone ever tried that before?

Dearborn, I hope your lives work out ok. You’ve really fucked up.

"We would have voted for Harris if she would just have brought peace to the Middle East!"

...

And cured cancer. That's all that we need.

...and solved world hunger.

We don't need anything except peace in the middle east, a cure for cancer, and solutions to world hunger. And that's it!

You just made me hear Steve Martin.

That tactic was tried in 2016 and failed. The political party isn't the one getting punished when you vote that way nor does it encourage them to change their ways.

Changing the direction of a political party is a long, drawn out affair that requires sustained political action over the course of years.

I have a feeling a lot of people who voted for Trump are going to be hurt by his policies and they're going to be completely shocked as though this wasn't known already. How could they possibly have known the person who bragged about hurting them when elected would actually hurt them when elected? /s

They won’t be shocked. They’ll blame it on liberals and democrats and anyone else who had nothing to do with it… because nothing is ever their fault, it’s always a conspiracy by someone else.

Not just as a VP, but it's not even our fucking war. She's going to go stop the war being waged by a sovereign nation? MK then!

I hope it doesnt work out for them. I kind of hope a bunch of them die in a fire because that's about what it's going to take for people to start understanding how serious all of this is.

Not really, so many died from COVID and look at us. They'd say the fire was Chinese.

A world renowned, pathological liar "played you"? The guy famous for a decades long history of incredible contradictions, tall tales and epic falsehoods. That guy. The Mythomaniac to end all mythomanics. The compulsive liar that lies more easily than he breaths? He played you? Really? I'm shocked!

I am still shocked about one thing: How could they fall for it???

[-] Pandantic@midwest.social 3 points 1 day ago

Most didn’t, they fell for the third party choice.

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Still counts

Only now, at the end, do you understand?

[-] reddig33@lemmy.world 48 points 1 day ago

I don’t feel sorry for these people. We’ve been through the Trump administration once already. They completely knew what they were voting for.

Headline is misleading. It was a quote from a single individual.

It's like the trolley problem but the person pulls the lever to kill as many people as possible to "send a message" to whoever is tying up people on trolley tracks.
