Oh how the turn tables. I wonder how MTG became such an authority on the intricacies of managing and staffing a large corporation? Maybe it was from her experience as a “part time coach” at a CrossFit gym? 
 

Poor, uneducated MAGA voters are learning just how little they matter. Like Trump said - “I love the uneducated!”

Or maybe helping run the family-owned construction company in rural Georgia.  Y'know where they hire all the PhD level framers, roofers, and concrete-pourers.

My wife went upstairs to wake our kids up this morning.   As she woke up our 12 year old daughter, the first thing she asked was who won the election.  My wife tells her Trump did, and she started to

This could go anywhere, but a neighbor I barely know just stopped me on a dog walk to say how happy she was about the election. I tried to brush it off but she just kept going. When she said something

Congrats on you and your wife failing as parents and raising a generation of pussies.

America First MAGA fixing to be shocked when Donald Trump chooses dudes with 12-figure net worth over investing in their dumb asses.

And I am here for it.

That would require them to pay attention.

They only have the attention span to care about ‘issues’ for half a football season every 4 years.

In 2028, they’ll complain about trump and MAGA as if they didn’t vote for him. They’ll tell you your vote doesn’t count or mean shit even when they voted for this jackwagon multiple times and he won 2 of 3.

Dude.   They will never complain about Trump and MAGA.  Trump could personally come into their house, shoot their dog and rape their daughter, and they'd blame the "goddamned communist Demoncrats!"

We do not prioritize education. And I consider trades to require education. Underfunding? Not when we need a new football stadium or art class.

 

I appreciate the sentiment but has the arts in public ed ever triumphed over sports?!? Hell, I wish there was more funding in the arts personally.

It comes down to some of these big tech companies want you to come in and immediately know what to do, and not have your 6 month learning curve. They’d rather hire an incredibly cheap foreign contractor in the same position and just fire them if they can’t keep up. There’s a lack of patience for molding tech talent.

No it has not. But the trades are rarely taught anymore. We are a push for college nation.

There are plenty of artists. There are not many art jobs. Need a plumber? Wait for an appointment or pay extra. Need an artist, I can find you quite a few ready to do some work tomorrow.

The arts are important. But they should not be deemed critical. Especially after a large Enchilada dinner.

Also, adding glitter to something you bought off Temu is not art. It is a craft. We confuse the two.

Coming soon to Trump’s America: detention centers all over the country to house “corrupt” Americans, i.e., those who oppose Trump.

❝China has built or expanded more than 200 specialized detention facilities nationwide to interrogate suspects ensnared in Xi Jinping’s widening anti-corruption drive, a CNN investigation has found, as the Chinese leader extends his crackdown beyond the ruling Communist Party to a vast swath of public sectors.

Since taking power in 2012, Xi has launched a sweeping campaign against graft and disloyalty, taking down corrupt officials as well as political rivals at an unprecedented speed and scale as he consolidated control over the party and the military.

Now well into his third term, the supreme leader has turned his relentless campaign into a permanent and institutionalized feature of his open-ended rule.

And increasingly, some of the most fearsome tools he has wielded to keep officials in line are being used against a much broader section of society, from private entrepreneurs to school and hospital administrators – regardless of whether they are members of the 99-million-strong party.

The expanded detention regime, named “liuzhi,” or “retention in custody,” comes with facilities with padded surfaces and round-the-clock guards in every cell, where detainees can be held for up to six months without ever seeing a lawyer or family members.

It’s an extension of a system long used by the party to exert control and instill fear among its members.❞

So delicious watching MAGA meltdown over the Elon H1B debate. You can tell that so many are conflicted in arguing that we need to allow companies to pay foreign workers less at the expense of Americans. It goes against their core beliefs and their heads are spinning.

its a great topic to bring up with maga acquaintances.

MAGA Boomers, aka my MIL, will never know anything about this. Fox News won’t talk about it, so it doesn’t exist.

Yeah, those who have been gleefully watching this have to understand that MAGA doesn't really know this is happening and probably wont find out.   They'll continue to get screwed by the oligarchs and continue to blame everyone but themselves.

Not only are they talking about it, they appear to have picked a side (at least for now).  Indian engineers don't watch FOX all day.

MAGA will realize that bringing in very different groups will often lead to fights. I’m unsure if the white, 40k/yr, blue collar worker is going to have much sympathy for an unemployed, white software engineer who is used to $200k and working from home.

people are quick to point to others as being lazy but won’t puts themselves in that category.

High Quality Im Shocked GIF

 

Forbes found that Trump's businesses hired at least 1,670 temporary foreign workers since 2008.

In 2023, Mar-a-Lago requested H-2B visas for: 53 waiters and waitresses, seven hotel desk clerks, 17 housekeeping cleaners, five first-line supervisors of food preparation and serving workers, 24 cooks and five bartenders per the Department of Labor.

Impossible to find Americans that will take those jobs?

During the start of Trump's first Presidency, the top 20 Americans owned $776 billion.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/chasewithorn/2016/10/04/forbes-400-the-full-list-of-the-richest-people-in-america-2016/

 

Now, in 8 short years they have tripled their wealth. Prior to 2016, it had taken the top 20 decades to triple their income.

God he's just such a fucking moron. 

 

Counterpoint:  he may be, but he's brilliant in figuring out what 1/3-1/2 of this country wanted, and doing exactly what they wanted to see and hear.  

All politicians are malleable, but he's set a new standard that may never be matched.

Yes it's easy to lie to people when you're an immoral piece of shit.
