$2 trillion in deeply harmful cuts through 2034 in programs and services for families and communities, including cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and student loans.
Any vestiges of actually good things the federal government does are being wittled away. F***ing pathetic
-
Didn't you hear? They're telling us the government doesn't work.
Here's an example, straight from their policies!
-
Oh the government works... Just not for us. Especially since it's went fully rogue
-
That’s Republicanism 101 - clamor incessantly about broken government, then break it after gaining office to say “I told you so”!

If only we could have stopped this somehow
-
The government has always been run by the wealthy, half-assedly protecting workers rights at best. The only logical choice remains - unionization.
-
The logical choice was to not let trump win, to keep things moving forward and to make progress.
There are a lot of accelerationists in the crowd and they don't appreciate how bad accelerationism makes things. It's a shame.
-
Things weren't moving forward though, that's exactly how we lost the support of the working class. Inequality and cost of living have been going up every decade.

Bit late for that. I think at this point what you need is a revolution.
-
What if we win - will we just try again, but voting harder until we need revolution again? With our current demographics, it could easily become a right wing revolution too.
We need a new power structure centered around workers, and always have. This is where capitalism leads.

You still could, but it requires taking to the streets in protest. The days are ticking away as he consolidates his power. It won't always be an option.
-
I appreciate the protests that are happening, but protests won't do much until polling changes.
Pretty sure Trump just made a thinly veiled threat on the life of the Governor of Maine while declaring that, "I am the federal law".
You're asking a lot of people for very little return.

very little return
Seriously?! Stopping the march of fascism is "very little return"?! You understand that this will get worse and worse, right? It might not seem that bad now, but they'll haul away more and more minority populations, steal more power, start wars, and oppress everyone else. You're not fighting against what conditions are like now. You're fighting against what they will be when he takes full control.
There is only one way out of fascism, and that's by fighting with everything you've got. But it seems like once you realize this, it'll be too late.
