Why do working class Americans vote against their self interests?

[daveman]

Since the 80's and Ronald Reagan, a key component of Republican policy has been the Dumbing Down of America, the GOP has always known that their survival hinges on keeping Americans uninformed.

It's working better than ever.

Just listen to Trump supporters on this forum for a preview.

Remember, kids, being "informed and intelligent" requires dutifully repeating what you're told by your Democrat masters.

Working class Americans making $40,000- $50,000 a year proudly fly their TRUMP flags from their Pickup Trucks

But it is Bidenomics and the Harris economic plans that focus on stimulating the middle class. Do what is best for the working class.

You missed a marvelous opportunity to shut the fuck up.

It's always funny when people whose personal lives are mostly dumpster fires of used diapers claim they know what's best for everyone else.

The worst thing I heard was this plan to get rid of the death tax. That will , in just a few generations , allow the super wealthy to OWN everything and everyone. We will be totally enslaved. It was thrown in their with no taxes on tops , and all the other giveaways. They probably hoed no one would notice their end game.

 

[daveman]

It's called stupidity & the need to bleeeeve his bullshit.

Lemme guess...you were all "Joy"ous when Harris told you to be.

 

[daveman]

I figured at least some of you would be turned off by Trump's antics when he mimicked giving a blowjob at a rally.

But it appears he cemented more MAGA support. Talk about weird.

You didn't seem to object to Harris blowing people.

Still running on the shell when you got beat on the issues.

Like you are hoping no one notices your painfully obvious promotion of socialism? GTFO.

How much does the death tax raise every year?

 

[skews13]

Sure. You know what else? They made more and spent less when Trump was President. They were safer from potential crime and war escalation when Trump was President. I guess you think voters are stupid and will believe you when you tell them this isn't true???

Wages are higher under Biden

More jobs with better wages under Biden

Violent crime down under Biden

Infrastructure money that will create construction and manufacturing jobs for years to come under Biden

Afghanistan war ended under Biden

Russia and China kept in check under Biden

NATO bigger and stronger under Biden

Energy production at record highs under Biden

Respect for America regained under Biden


Is the sky blue in the imaginary world you live in?

Explain what Trump's plan is to end inflation.

Because he sure as hell hasn't. Or do you think he will cuz you just have to bleeeeeve he will?

You Libtards really are dense.

1) The first thing that he will do is stop creating fiat dollars out of thin air. Pumping paper dollars into the world market doesn't mean that there's more money. It means that there's more paper. That sort of irrational thinking and obsessive spending devalues the dollar and reduces it's buying power.

2) Trump will reduce taxes, fees, penalties, and interest rates on American businesses; American farmers; and working class individuals. This will trigger economic growth and job creation. The supply will meet the demand which will lower prices.

3) Trump will end or reduce pouring our tax dollars into foreign pockets. Instead of funding wars, that money can be used on America's infrastructure, which will put millions of Americans back to work. Giving billions of tax dollars to Ukraine, Iran, Israel, Palestine, and others when Americans are struggling is a slap in our collective face.

4) Trump will end or seriously reduce illegal immigration which is a huge burden on America's taxpaying public. One of the reasons the Demwit Libtards were literally crushed on November 5th was because they put Americans last. Trump is an America First kinda guy. This will help put unemployed Americans back to work and give them buying power.

5) Trump (with the help of Elon Musk and hopefully, Ron Paul) will cut the government's bureaucratic fat which will go a long way in restoring confidence in the American people.

Ultimately, there is no better cure for reducing inflation than by allowing the free market to flourish. Government needs to keep it grubby hands out of the market and off of people's hard-earned income. It's been proven time and again that Socialism doesn't work. Stealing from people who've earned their money then giving it do deadbeats and illegals is a really bad, economy-crushing idea.

Seems like people thought the economy did pretty good under Trump, until covid

COVID hurt both presidents terms in office.

Unfortunately they only see the problems ( most of which Biden did NOT create ) which trump points out over and over assigning all the blame to Biden. The blame game solved nothing. Schemes and short cuts , like trump is proposing either don't work and come back to haunt US.

Talk about voting against self interests…
Why do highspanics, who are mostly catholic and staunchly opposed to abortion, vote for democrats who endorse and celebrate abortion?
Why do black churches, who oppose homosexuality, vote for democrats who endorse and subsidize homosexuality?
Why do homos, who are hated to the point of extermination by Muslims, vote for democrats who support Islam?
Why do Jews, who are hated to the point of extermination by Muslims, vote for democrats who support hamass, etc.?
Why do Muslims, who hate homos to the point of extermination, vote for democrats who subsidize homosexuality?

Hopefully because they are not people who are filled with hatred and prejudice for others.

I take it you would rather have sky high prices then? Fucking Communist shitbag. I am so glad that Liberalism can crawl back under the rock it came from.

Sometimes that prejudice is warranted, dumbass.

It was a world-wide post COVID event. Biden did NOat create it . In fact he did such good damage control here in the US that he is handing over a good growing economy to trump. Just like Obama did. Now let's see how trump screws it up again.

Colin Powell had it right in his book. He was talking about Vietnam (and this sentiment was echoed later in the Ken Burns series). Paraphrasing the book...'We couldn’t understand the battlefield and every “win” was actually a loss on the only scorecard that mattered; how the vietmanese people felt about us’. Later in the Burns series, it was put a slightly different way. Again paraphrasing... “When you can’t count whats important, you tend to make what you can count important.”

The average citizen in the backwards red states does not understand how a tariff hurts them or how giving money to Botswana in foreign aid to buy the goods that are made at his factory helps him in the long run. Its sad but they can’t wrap their pea picking heads around it. So the blob makes it easy for them to understand. You’re a victim. Vote for me and I’ll protect you. Shockingly, it works on people.

Excuses, excuses. The economy is shit right now. I am still coughing up well over $3/gallon for gasoline, moron. The Chink Bug was a biological attack.

 

[Roudy]

Those interests not being economic.

In bigotry and fear and cruelty, maybe.

So we get the guy who told union workers children could do their jobs... the guy who laughed at the idea of firing them all, if they dared go on strike... the guy we have on video colonizing bribes from the ultra rich ... the guy who would take away the health insurance of 30 million working people...

Record number of Blacks, Latinos, women and young people voted for Trump. He won both the popular and electoral vote, flipped the Senate by up to 5 or more seats, and on the way to keep the House.

People got sick and tired of Leftists and their warped, depraved ideology. This was a generational shift.

The fact that you and the rest of the Leftist nut jobs are still in denial over what actually happened is only good news for Trump and the GOP, it means the American people will keep teaching morons like you the lessons of the 2024 election over and over.
