"I didn't think it would hurt me." - Trump voters for the next four years.
As a school bus driver, I work with a bunch of older people who are already utterly dependent on social security and medicare to have any semblance of a life that doesn't involve living in a tent in the park and dumpster diving for dinner. They are mostly trumpers. We're all Teamsters as well, and a few are married lesbians (and these are the most rabidly pro-trump of all). I have made a few attempts to convince them that trump (and Republicans for fucking decades) are out to destroy social security, medicare, unions and gay rights (among lots of other things) - but they reacted to me like I had grown an extra head. Somehow they've convinced themselves that the GOP is the original source and the protector of these things.
Spend all your time on a bus listening to AM Talk Radio year after year after year and see what happens to your brain.
Americans are the most propagandized people on Earth.
They do know that just because it's a Republican porn of choice, Republicans don't actually hate lesbians, right?
