You can’t convince ANY Trumper or Independent. I spoke with my ex-husband again about all this last week. He’s very wealthy, hates Trump, but hates all democrats too. So he threw his vote away to the 3rd party will be buying more TSLA during the dip. And here is why I’ll never talk about politics with him again; he thinks it’s a GREAT IDEA that Muskrat is taking a sledgehammer to the government. Doesn’t matter that Musk is an unelected foreigner doing major damage to our country. “It’s what’s needed.” Ex-husband said.
I always believed he was smarter than that, but nope. He’s got enough money to ride this out and retire at 55.
No, he’s got enough, and he’s diversified very well. We’re both 54, and I was really, really hoping that I could retire at 67. However, I don’t know if I can come back fast enough after this nosedive. But the ex-husband will be fine and he’ll retire next January.
That’s the U.S. in a nutshell. The very wealthy will be fine, but people like me who are constantly trying to just hold onto what I’ve already earned will be worse off by a mile.
I’m really REALLY curious to know from these people when they say “it’s what’s needed” and they’re doing as well as you say…why? Why is it needed?
If you’re doing well, then surely dismantling everything that hurts others isn’t what’s needed unless it’s solely going to help you and only you (or others in your same position). If that’s why, then the problem isn’t the system…
When we were young, he was hardcore republican because “small government.” And he’s convinced that the biggest drain on the budget is poor people. I’ve argued that wealthy people and farmers are the biggest welfare queens. And our military is the biggest drain, but he won’t see.
I now understand what a moron I’ve been to believe that he ever meant it when he agreed that healhcare should be provided, college should be free, and childcare should be free. I see that he’d be the first person demanding those get shot down. I mean, anyone buying the TSLA dip is telling you they don’t care about the human quality of life, nor about naziism. They only care about making money.
I’ve come to the realization that he’s still republican, but Trump is obviously brain damaged, so ex can’t support him. But maybe the rest of the repugnants aren’t that bad.
Pretty much 100% bullshit as you’ve probably already guessed. I will no longer talk to him about anything requiring brain function because he’s proof that wealth <> intelligence.
Thank you for taking the time to write this. It is definitely all bullshit and I still don’t understand how someone with wealth can think poor people are a drain on society considering in a society where there are ways to win then there will be a loser. In another timeline, his wealth that he’s accumulated might be seen as poor and he’d be a drain on the economy despite all he supposedly has.
Not everyone can be reached, but I don’t think no one can be reached either. It just takes the Dems growing a fucking spine, though, which is the harder lift, IMO.

Will probably he doesn’t have his money under a mattress… so I guess he may eventually unretire 🤷♂️😂
