I'm laughing at all the boomers that suddenly just lost huge chunks of their retirement after voting for this dip shit.

I can only assume Germans have a word for this sort of sick satisfaction when you watch bad people hurt themselves.

Schadenfreude: The pleasure or satisfaction someone feels when they witness or learn about another person’s suffering, humiliation, pain, or failure

My grandpa with a Trump certificate of authenticity on his desk said he put $50,000 in around March 17th. He said "this is the bottom my boy, he's turning it around". I don't know if I should cry or laugh.
