Summary
Consumer confidence has declined since Donald Trump’s return to office, with the University of Michigan reporting a drop in sentiment and rising inflation concerns.
Many Trump voters are frustrated by market turbulence and sweeping executive orders. Voter Paul Bisson fears economic instability, saying, “That’s not what we signed up for.”
Geneticist Nicholas Schuch plans to move savings to Swiss Francs, expecting ongoing chaos.
Polls indicate growing anxiety, with some supporters questioning Trump’s policies and their long-term economic impact.
No. This is exactly what they signed up for. WTAF did they think was going to happen?
They expected to never face the consequences of their shitty shitty actions.
They thought the leopard would eat other people’s faces and not theirs. Remember that one lady from his first term? “He’s not hurting the right people.” That quote tells you everything you need to know about his voters.
Yeah, you lived through a whole term of this shit already. Not sure how you can be surprised now.
That’s a good comment
Lol, I did enjoy that very much
They hoped for cheap eggs and open racism.
They are 50% there.
With all due respect, this is exactly what you all signed up for you stupid fucking pieces of shit.
“all due respect”
Not much respect is due here
Don’t worry, none was given.
This is not only what you signed up for, but you signed the rest of us up for it too.
Thanks.
With all due respect
Which is about Zero.
Can gurentee you more than a few are swallowing hte ‘they’re elminating waste from OUR taxes’ line eagerly.
Such as my parents.
that “waste” is gonna go right into the pockets of the wealthy and the select few.
run 'o the mill redcap maganuts are not on that list–never were
Oh I’ve been aware. For the past TWENTY. FUCKING. YEARS. I’ve been aware… that’s how long i’v been trying to get them to step away from this shitbag hate spewing open sewage pipe.
They insist I’m, and I fucking quote, ‘divorced from reality.’
The last political talk I had with my 70+ year old mother ended with her screaming at me and crying while she called me a know it all for actually having thought through my convictions and having data to back it up.
I called her out for holding a brick in her hand that has access to all of human knowledge and saying all she did was look at fucking Facebook.
Then I get told I don’t know what I’m talking about despite knowing very well what I’m talking about.
These people are demented
This sounds like why I don’t talk to my family.
Or more accurately, why they (thankfully) choose not to talk to me. Because I’m more than happy to be considered the ‘know it all’ because I bother to rub two braincells together and force them to have to spark a thought to defend themselves.
They insist I’m, and I fucking quote, ‘divorced from reality.’
Let them know you’re still happily married to reality, but they’re more divorced from reality than trump is from his first wife.
I hope you get what you vote for.
Please, no. Don’t wish that on the rest of us.
I hope you get what you voted for.
Thanks, but I’m from Texas. I never get what I voted for. I either get the same ol’ shit or new shit that carries the ol’ shit’s water.
Yeah, same. I left 13 years ago for California. And despite the fact that I’m living in a shelter, I’d rather be here than back in my home state.
Bullshit. I live in a red state. They’re not turning on him at all. You can always find a couple of people to express any view that you want to amplify and write an article pretending they’re representative of their entire group.
Exactly, go to any conservative space and they’re just happy that the “libs are getting owned.”
Chaos was the main constant his entire first presidency.
Fuck. Does nobody remember infrastructure week?
Infrastructure Week lasted four years and was always two weeks away. This term is apparently Executive Order Day, every day that ends in a “why”.
Anything to stick it to the libs?
Fuckers.
A Republican would let Trump shit in their mouth if it meant a ‘lib’ had to smell it.
Dumbasses voted for a clown and didn’t expect the inevitable circus.
Womp womp.
The reason I find it hard to sympathize with the people who voted for him is because he’s been advertising everything he’s currently doing for the past few years, and now the people who voted for him are surprised that he’s actually doing what he’d said he’d do.
He literally said he didn’t care about people and just wanted votes
Do we really think there’s a significant number of Trump voters out there who regret their vote? Really?
It seems far more likely to me that most Trump voters are doubling down. “Prices are going to come down way lower than they were before Trump took office. This is actually Biden’s fault. Prices are going down, actually. Particularly eggs, depsite what the woke MSM would tell you. In fact, eggs are cheapest in states with the least restrictive gun regulations and highest deportation rates for illegals. Prices have never been this low. Trump is making Mexico pay our grocery bills.”
Sure, you can find one or two people who will claim to be regretful Trump voters. (Just like you can find a very few microbiologists who swear the universe was created in six literal days around 6,000 years ago.) But I can’t imagine any significant number of Trump voters having that much self awareness and intellectual honesty.
Probably one day they will have a regret, but now as you say so…
I see no criticism or complaints from his voters at all. Here’s what I’m seeing from them:
“You can’t expect results already, it’s only been less than a month! It will take some time for his policies to work.”
“The problem with the eggs is because Biden ordered millions of chickens to be killed.”
The egg thing is going to be VERY painful cognitive dissonance for those that walk into a store and find no eggs, or a limit on purchase, etc. And that may take a while before that changes.
These people lie to each other, themselves, and to “the libs” on a regular basis. I’m sure they can lie about empty shelves, too, but it will be a bigger lie than just lying about what prices were before vs. now.
I agree with you. People should see Trump’s approval rating. He is doing well so far.
I dunno if I like articles like this, because I haven’t really heard anyone really say this. I like in podunk Midwest state and folks around here are set that things are already getting better, and if they aren’t, it’s because of the last administration or because Democrats keep getting in the way.
Online, comments from articles and a certain sub reddit are all bouncing around ecstatically and shouting “WINNING” with everything that is happening. I’d like to think the mirage is fading, but I have been able to find truth of that just yet.
I never thought the leopards would eat my face…
“this isn’t what we signed up for”
literally everyone has been trying to tell you it is
They signed up to make everyone else suffer and now they’re shocked and dismayed that they’re probably going to suffer too. I feel for everyone that has to share a country with people that would throw them to the wolves first chance they get while demanding unearned respect for themselves. But if I were religious, I’d tell these people to rot in hell.
Seriously, if sanity ever returns to the world, I hope that the lesson we walk away with is that right wingers, conservatives and religious fundies should never be allowed anywhere near positions of power again. Because when they have it, their whole aim is to uplift themselves and only themselves while fucking over everyone else in society.
Bullshit. Trump supporters have no idea what “market turbulence” means and are cheering the executive orders. This is just manipulative feel-good bullshit.
This, I keep hearing about how “Thanks to Trump common sense is being restored!”
And when I ask what they mean by “Common Sense”, they tell me the most transphobic shit I’ve ever heard in my life and give me a lecture about how it’s “time for me to stop playing dress up”
And I’m like “Dress up? I’m a fucking tomboy who happens to be a transgirl, what exactly am I dressing up as?”
I know what they mean, but pretending I don’t makes them angrier, and at this point I hope they have strokes.
Lmao fuck all of them. This is exactly what they signed up for. You fucked around now find out you worthless cunts.
