He presided over one of the best runs in the markets. And it was stable and calm, not chaotic mess like right now.

They wanted to oppress others more than improve their lives. Seeing the amount of people backpedaling is crazy.

The "I don't care if it hurts me as long as it hurts others more" mentality.

Seeing it in action is baffling. They could advocate for Medicare for all, feeding children, helping homeless vets, etc. they rather focus on the 20 collegiate trans students that won’t even make a bleep in history.

I've been friends with my buddy for going on 30 years. His mom is deeeeep in MAGA stuff and Qanon. I've known her that long too especially since we were friends as kids. She said something about homeless vets and I said Bernie has a plan to house every homeless vet and taxes are only on people making 250k+. She's lower middle class btw, if that. That's all I said I didn't say fuck Trump or rant or rave or anything. That's it. She unfriended and blocked me. After literal decades of being her son's best friend and seeing her tons of times.

Sad but not surprising… they are all hateful mean spirited people. Rather unfortunate…

Baffling is underselling it. I'm a Canadian living in the US. Imagine how I feel right now? The only good thing Trump has done is single handedly made sure the Conservatives and PP don't win the next election.

I heard that, and that brings me great joy. Hopefully it starts a movement worldwide. I know the Conservative Party in Canada was basically guaranteed to win until he started this bullshit, so congratulations for you guys.

Yeah. They probably were going to have a legitimate majority, but the last poll I saw had them down around 6-8 points to the Progressives. The turnaround has been swift and unambiguous.

u/Hammi_and_Chippie Mar 08 '25

You’re using confusing/incorrect terms here. The Conservative Party of Canada is also known as the PC’s or Progressive Conservatives. So when you say the Progressives, most Canadians would assume you’re talking about the Conservatives. I can understand why the names would be confusing when it is in fact the Liberal Party of Canada that is more socially progressive.

There's still a pretty good chance the cons can win, but they are much closer to minority government territory than the majority that was being forecast pre Trump.

u/Efficient_Ear_8037 Mar 07 '25

Due to mysterious circumstances, people suddenly really didn’t like the Conservative Party…

u/Away_Media Mar 08 '25

And uniting Canadians? Seriously, what's the real situation up there? Are they divided?

My friend, the US is not going to have another true election under Trump or his goons. Not under Elon, not with the amount of money and power they hold now.

I’ll eat my own heart if in four years, providing we’re all still alive, that scumbag orange willingly relieves his position as president for a non-Conservative individual he didn’t personally select.

The president is g great magician, he can take gold and turn it to a smoldering pile of shit.
