A small business owner who voted for Donald Trump recently posted a video on TikTok, pleading for help as crushing tariffs on China threatened to bankrupt his operation, which imports alloy wheels. His call for support, however, drew little sympathy from some fellow Americans.
“Votes have consequences,” he was told, with many comments from Twitter/X users relishing the notion that another MAGA voter was suffering because of their political choice. The backlash prompted a second video from the man, in which he dropped several F-bombs while criticizing the apparent heartlessness of those celebrating his hardship.
Are they being mocked, or are people just pointing out the reality of the situation?
He should be mocked and ridiculed until it penetrates his tiny brain that he is part of the problem and he is getting what he deserves.
He voted for him twice and says would vote a third time. What a pathetic piece of shit.
Its not a sports team, and people like this don’t understand that you don’t just vote one way because its the team you cheer for. Vote for what affects your life in the most positive way.
This dumb ass got what he deserves.
…pathetic piece of terminally stupid shit.
But we have to listen to him because he’s where centrists want the party to be.
On one hand he voted exactly for this.
On the other hand, he is a worker that was systematically exploited to be less educated about political affairs and then exploited further by having his work taken from him.
On the one hand, he’s a fascist. On the other hand, HE’S A FASCIST.
It’s shitty that people relish in the suffering of another but it only takes a room temp IQ to have realized Trump was a con man in 2016. It took even less intelligence to realize Trump was unfit to lead in 2020. Voting for him post Jan 6th? You’re a fucking traitor.
He’s still a shitty person because he likely voted for the horrible things Trump would do.
The thing with that kind of mindset is that it doesn’t propagate as within a population not driven by exceptionalism. They feel so special that they can point their fingers and rest assured they are different or would be safe, because they wouldn’t commit a specific attributed mistake. Until it happens to them, but couldn’t possibly happen to the rest, and again and again.
Wheelhead got exactly what he voted for. And Republicans have the answer: grab those bootstraps.
Well 0 fucks given. Anyone Saying this wasn’t told to them a million times doing the election are either fucking stupid and shouldn’t vote, or clearly living in a fucking vacuum on Fox planet.
Is there any reason to believe that he wouldn’t vote for him a 3rd time?
no, because he will if he has the opportunity
No, but democrats will pretend to believe he might if it means they get to move to the right.
i had to eat notebook paper as a child, suffer beatings, and survive homelessness. pull yourself up by your bootstraps and get good, i guess?
He can get a job as a picker on another farm. Maybe one owned by a big corporation. Maybe his own former farm once it’s sold. They are freeing up work conventionally done by imigrant workers, right? Hard work pays off under conservatives, right?
Oh you want to talk about “heartlessness”? Give me a fucking break
Yes.
At least he can get work occupying Greenland
It is interesting to read the coverage. Many of us didn’t relish anything. We find it ironic, we find it good for the lulz, and we ask ourselves, “Do you think he learned anything?” followed by the observation, “Meh, probably not. Reality never interested him, so why should things be different now?”
We don’t want Trump supporters to get fucked. Rather, we want to live in a world where Trump can’t fuck over anyone. But that’s not the situation right now, and karma’s a motherfucker.
