he will fuck over brown people but he'll also fuck you over

only difference is that someone will write about his fucking you over, as though that is the worst thing that could have happened. instead of writing how a racist got fucked over due their racist decisions.

and just had the time of her life as she chanted "Lock her up" with the crowd. I have no empathy for any Trump voter.

You voted for Trump because minorities were getting benefits just like you. You didn't want that, so you voted for the clown who promised to eliminate Federal benefits. But there was no fine print. Trump didn't say "for everyone but white people".

Live with the consequences. The rest of us have to...

to let themselves be brainwashed into acting like chickens for colonel sanders.

EVERY FREAKING DAY dummy. Now I have to live with your stupidity. Fuck off.

"She was stunned to hear the president wants to downsize SSI. She hadn't heard about it until CNNMoney called her."

She probably would not have heard about it at all, if CNN hadn't called her. Too busy being an ignorant voter, probably fondling her firearm.

Remember: "God doesn't believe in retirement".

The question now is, what are you going to do about it? Voting Republican got you into this mess. Does that suggest to you a way forward?

She could have had Hillary Clinton as her president. I'm sure she was much more concerned about that than about what might happen to her SSI payments.

Plenty of sympathy for those people in the same situation who were smart enough to vote for Hillary. But in my mind, the people who voted for Trump were asking for it. They just didn't care about something happening to anyone else. They only understand and care when it hits them.

"Plenty of sympathy for those people in the same situation who were smart enough to vote for Hillary."

I heard that.

There's only ONE person in that article who didn't vote for the big orange, treasonous turd, but who are STILL on the tRumputin train to HELL stating that what he's doing is "fine with them,"even if it means total disaster and ruin for millions of people like THEM. Some folks LOVE to be abused, used and made complete fools out of, and I'm fine with that. Like you, I ONLY worry about those who don't believe IN or board the tRumputin train to HELL. The rest of 'em can keep going straight to hell if they want to

and embrace the devil

Forewarn ignoramuses like Ms. Shockey that this is what will happen, as far back as a year ago or more. To a person, that crowd was unable to review drumpfs and the gop's history to gather some sense of what the future will bring. They refused, or were incapable of rubbing together 2 brain cells to generate some reason, logic and common sense. They let the RW noise machine, as well as their own built in bias's and prejudices tell them drumpf would be good for the country, despite the overwhelming stacks of evidence to the contrary.

I am thrilled these cretins will reap what they've sewn, but regret the rest of us will also share that shit sammitch.

Trump just doesn't despise minorities, he despises poor people too.

So anytime that you believe you are superior to anyone.....just remember. He doesn't include you in his vision of Amerikkka and your whiteness doesn't change that. Loser.

to gut needed services for people. It's been their wet dream for years and years.

How does it come as a surprise? How are you stunned?

Are you that ignorant about how government works?

Regardless of what you think you heard Trump say - he's a republican.

You voted for the GOP wet dream, now you get to live it.

You didn't pay attention during the campaign. You only listened to Trump's feel-good bullshit. And you're still not paying attention because someone else had to tell you what was in Trump's budget.

Wake the fuck up, woman.

When you go for the fancy wrapper and disregard the warning labels, you get screwed over.

I'm done feeling sorry for these idiots. Their racism and bigotry should turn around and bite them all on their asses. It seems that's the only way they can learn anything -- and for a good percentage of them, not even THAT will teach them.

He has Multiple Sclerosis. He has a lot of problems. He knows better that to think Republicans want him to do anything but die young, and would never even considering voting for a rapist bigot.

You don't even have to pay, unless, of course, the library is "too socialistic" for your uninformed ass.

She is only worried that she can not survive. You did this to millions of others also you worthless piece of crap.

This thread is why they call us elitist.

Directing ridicule and hate towards people who will suffer, is exactly how the GOP treats all of us. Joining that festival of hate toward chosen within a group liberals supposedly care about is all part of the same cruelty and hatred that Paul Ryan and this entire administration directs at us.

This woman voted for someone widely known for decades as a con man, a liar, a cheat, a bankrupt and a buffoon.

This woman voted for someone who personally displayed cruelty, ignorance and rage during his campaign appearances, and who showed no grasp whatsoever of economics, politics, international relations or any of the other realities that are heart of the president's job.

She couldn't be bothered or couldn't find the time - any time at ALL - in an election cycle that lasted the better part of two years to inform herself on candidates, issues and the realities of governing. And she couldn't be bothered or find time to learn anything in an age when information and news and analysis has never been more accessible.

She voted for someone who promised to torture POWs, promised to build an enormous, useless wall, promised to deport tens of millions of Americans, promised to jail his opponent in the general election.

She voted for sociopathy, greed, venality and crime. She voted for someone who vowed to hurt people. She voted for someone whose legislative plans will hurt tens of millions of people - financially and physically. And lo and behold, as it turns out, those t4ens of millions include her.

She voted for cruelty. Now she's hurt and confused and mystified by what Her Guy is doing.

Gee, I wonder why.

Singling out those who went for the wrong candidate and enjoying their pain is beneath what I would hope my fellow Democrats would be.

It's wondering if they're paying attention.

It's wondering if they're going to stop being consumers, and start being citizens.

This "they" you mention is at war with us; they seek to erase not just the "far out leftist", but anybody they deem liberal, and any person who is too 'different' for their tastes or deviates too far away from their version of normality (Which is them). And by erase, I mean from the public discourse, but a small but growing faction (In particular, the Adam Lanza and Dylann Roof Wannabes AKA the "alt-right&quot aims to literally erase us.

It's time to fight back. When the Krista Shockley-type people of the US renounce their support of Trump and start speaking out against the psychopathic movement they helped to create then I can picture people here being supportive of her, until then, how do we know they're not just going to go back to supporting cuts against the poor and minorities as long as it doesn't affect them?

By all means consider only nondisabled people unworthy of compassion. I hope you aren't so hypocritical that you found 45's insult of a disabled man unacceptable then are willing to denigrate this woman who is among the marginalized herself. It's an absense of basic common decency also lacking in this administration.

in that way. She's an uneducated soul though, and now she'll have to live with the consequences of that.

There was a time when people knew the basic things that Democrats stood for, but we've lost that. I think we've got a lot of work to do.

I'll be living with the consequences, too.

The GOP took great advantage of their power to deny SSI recipients increases in payments during Obama's presidency. It was raised every yr. during the Bush admin. This was by design with the knowledge that the less educated voters only blame the president. Keeping the tax cuts and bailouts were criticized a lot even here. It's hard for people to see nuance when they have an emotional reaction.

I have a friend who voted for Hillary, and also said "at least he talks about poverty." I can't relate because I was unwilling to listen to him at all. So, I don't know what he said that made people think that. In retrospect I think it's worth remembering that while he's no serious actor, he does have some training in that realm.

I try to keep in mind that most people don't follow politics as closely as I do. I don't want to see people suffer, but I do hope they will learn.

when I lived in Georgia...I never heard any news that was not positive for the GOP...a progressive TV and perhaps radio is really needed. to reach people like Shockey.

and all the other Shit Gibbon voters. Ms. Shockey and her fellow balls of feces probably donated to Andre The Midget last night, too.

sympathy for her. My sympathy rests with those who also rely on this type of aid, but who actually voted against him last November.

And I have zero sympathy for her. Actually, less than zero sympathy, if that's possible.

for him.

She is allowed a bit of complaining.

But the rest of Trump, which also sucks, she voted for, so let her cries be brief and her newfound activism be long.

vote in order to wake up. I don't wish her any ill will.

Liberals have deluded themselves for centuries that people like this will see the light and vote their own rational self-interest. They never do. No matter how badly the suffer, they will blame it on the 'others.' It won't even be a tortured rationalization; it will be an uninformed don't-care-about-them-facts statement. And if things get so bad that a small handful of them like this woman vote in desperation for 'the other,' they will be back to voting against their self-interest by the following election.

I've come to believe there really is no hope for these people.

Granted, we here at DU are, most likely, news junkies and political junkies, so we're well informed and stay up to date. People like this are on FB playing games or maybe don't have internet at all.

Ignorance. It's what's for breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight snack at Trump's place.

You cannot have it both ways.

And why? Because I have enough on my plate caring for the people in my personal circle that Trump voters would consider putting in a "high-risk pool" or consider "the other."

you and others like you made that bed, now go sleep in it!!!! I will reserve my sympathy for those who didn't vote for the orange monster and are stuck sleeping in that same stinking bed along with the morons who voted that freak in. You can't say you weren't warned, you chose not to heed the warnings because OMG Hillary had emails and she's a woman!

.. where you can't tell good truthful guys from
evil liars..

you get what you're getting.

I'll bet the idiot would still vote for trump.

How could she not vote for Trump again?

and his...
That is the way he sees it...
That is what rulers demand and expect.

Got that!!!!!!

Tikki

I pray they live a painful, horrible unsatisfying life
