It's time to face it

They truly loathe us. They smile in giddy anticipation of seeing us suffer. They high five each other in spasms of orgasmic glee at what they've done to us. They find it hilarious that they are killing the very people who put them where they are. Who pay their salaries. Who believed their lies.

I feel that my heart is breaking.

Because they will continue to vote Republican. By the time they suffer as a result of the bill, they won't link their suffering to the bill. They'll do as they always do, blame Democrats--particularly those uppity women and persons of color.

and not have a guilty conscience about it, but I'm a Liberal so I can't be that mean. But I do hope that Orrin Hatch, the author of the corker kickback, shits his pants outside in public someday.

Any republican who voted for this crap is full of hatred.

A few who voted against this, have a thread of decency. Yes, there were a few. But we need 2 decent republican senators to vote against this. Just 2...are there 2? I don't think so..

And on top of it he won't create any jobs either. He's going to let his 1% friends create them.

And the 1% will create jobs, but not until Americans are willing to get less pay than the Chinese. When that happens all the Corporations will rush to bring their companies back.

I never thought the day would come when that could actually happen, but give it a year or two. Young people will have very few choices. Go into the military service and fight to protect American "interests", work in a corporate factory, or work in the servant business for rich people.

And he does so without ANY criticism from Republican ranks. There have been murmurings from McCain, Flake and Collins, but no concerted internal resistance.

He is the one who gets away with everything (so far). He appears unfettered (so far). And now the GOP-compliant-state media is saying that MUELLER IS ATTEMPTING A COUP. Balls of sheer brass, but not immune to a war-club wielded by Democrats/progressives. Immediate problem: Democrats do not have the numbers in government; fixable, but time is tight when the country’s under attack from without (Putin) AND within.

Trump-lovers are mostly low-information, no-college-degree white males. They love to hear/see the Supreme Asshole yapping about AntiFa, “deep state,” Obama, Hillary, and all the customary red-meat subjects. They don’t care that he lies his ass off every single waking minute, they get off on his bullying, and are empowered to be more assholic themselves.

For them, fascism is exhilarating when riding high. Which is why it’s crucial to bring that ride to a crashing, painful (for them) conclusion as quickly as possible.

As for their supporters, f**k them, they deserve to suffer...but you know what the ones that survive will still vote for them, because they all seem to believe that they're just one lottery ticket away from being in the same clique!

They freely chose to believe the lies, because they hated Clinton and Obama more then they loved this country or even their own children, some followed like lemmings, some are bigots, some are racists, some religious fanatics, some because they believed things would be different!

Too many of them believed in the myth of someone who wasn't a part of the establishment, being able to do a better job...especially when that man was a lousy businessman and more of a con man!

So, as I said in the beginning, f**ck them, they deserve to suffer...unfortunately many good people will suffer as well, and for them it's undeserved!!!
