Yeah, so I expect 90% of us are already blocked on this account. It will just be another "old man yells at cloud" website for him. Racist, sexist, arrogant (shit like "I've been on a boat once...") statements just going out to the void.

He's a carbon copy of Winsor - repeated assertions that Harris is worse, is an idiot, but never saying why or offering any proof. Maybe he IS winsor, just with a different username.

Trump supporters' reactions to this will be so predictable.

You're just making shit up and assuming you know everyone's views. It's not. You're just trying to make yourself feel special for being an American.

Well, China is certainly celebrating the end of Voice of America...so much winning, right?

And some more buy into it hesitantly, but justify their decision with mental backflips as "maybe at least they'll balance the budget" or "at least Elon has a chance of being competent" or "if they can't do anything we were fucked anyway".

Give evidence on where this happened. I can give one - Trump's degree.

They said this about Brexit too - "teething issues" they called them. It's now been 5 years. So let's check back on this in a few years, you'll probably be blaming someone else by then.

I'm actually at PIA in Florida now, are you there? What's hilarious here is that at the registration area, they have signs "sorry the shirts and goody bags aren't here yet, they're stuck at customs. We hope they will arrive soon". There's going to be so much winning...

Yeah, they said that about Boris Johnson too during the Brexit negotiations - "he's just pretending to be crazy and unpredictable, but he's really playing 4D chess! Those EU negotiators will be thrown off-balance and we'll gain leverage!" Then Boris pretty much rolled over and gave the EU everything they asked for. Then complained that he was "forced" to take the deal and tried to back out of it almost immediately... Those people saying this probably haven't negotiated anything significant in their lives.

I'm going to take a wild guess... that you've taken 0 economics courses before. 1, tops.

You still have my respect, voting 3rd party is much better than some here (like @dogyks) who DID vote for Trump and are now desperately trying to justify to themselves the shitshow that's now happening. Keep on!

I'd rather die free than live under Putin's boot. Looks like your capitulation is complete.

No he won't. He thinks the US sent 500 billion and is "trying to get it back". He's just trying to shake down Ukraine for far more than the US actually sent, and stopping all aid is already a given. He's fully a Russian asset. ...but at least DOGE might balance the budget right? (no, they won't do that either)

I've heard the "but we need to pay the national debt" refrain so much now that I think it's a Russian narrative... Winsor was parroting it, now every russian bot I see online is parroting it. I don't have an economics background so I don't know exactly how the national debt works, especially with a country whose currency is considered a reserve currency like the USA. The UK only paid some war bonds from WW1 (yes, that's world war ONE, not two) in 2015, so when your side keeps saying "we're going to get fucked SOON" you really need to qualify when "soon" is.
