      His tariff plans were no secret, and we already got a taste during his first term of how this shit never ends up doing anything but hurt US business, but somehow you decided to vote for him anyway and now this outcome is a surprise?

      ➕ 💯 This right here 👆

      Whatever narrative/excuse/willful blindness/willful ignorance you may have deluded yourself with, this is exactly what you wanted and what you got. Mafia Don Mangolini was very clear what he would do and how it would happen.

      Fuck you and your regret as “enthusiastically” as you supported Chump. 🖕 🖕

    Trump: “I’m going to be a neutron bomb”

    Musk: “I’m up for neutron bombs!”

    CEOs: “Can you only neutron bomb some things?”

    Trump: “No.”

    CEOs: “Eh, he probably doesn’t mean it.”

    Media: “Trump not going to be a neutron bomb, everyone says”

    Voters: “…eh? Sorry, is there an election or something?”

    In what part of “They’re eating the dogs!” did he think Trump was going to be a sane and stable leader?

    I feel like the people who think CEOs are better than the rest of us need to look at just how fucking stupid you’d have to be to think a trade war would help small businesses.

    They published a book describing what they were going to do. It was, like, a million times easier than effort Arthur Dent was expected to have put in to protect his house, and this was for our entire fucking country.

    It was free, online, in easily downloadable and ingestible form. People that read it were saying quite loudly that it was a Very Bad Thing, and got told they were overreacting or suffering from TDS.

    Anyone curious about what else to expect need only read P2025. They fucking told us. Avoiding this was so damn easy if more people would only pay attention. And we’re doing away with our education system being of any future use, so that’s another thing to look forward to.

    When a fascist runs for office, you don’t vote them in. We failed so hard and the consequences haven’t even caught up yet.

      Most CEOs, and board members and C-suite officers get there through a web of nepotism rather than any amount of skill, inherent or learned.

      In short, they’re all dumber than a box of rocks.
