Vice President JD Vance announced on Wednesday that the Trump administration would "temporarily halt" over $200 million in Medicare funds for Minnesota in an effort to address fraud in the state.
The number of people who leap up to blame anyone except the people that voted for Trump is fascinating to me. Objectively the people that voted him in, and somehow entirely blameless.
Nobody says Trump voters are blameless. That’s a straw man.
But Trump voters lack some of the moral culpability of those who knew better and still didn’t vote, or threw their vote away on Jill Stein or whatever.
There is no point in trying to shame MAGA voters for bringing about what is happening now, because they like it. What can you say to that?
On the other hand, leftists who didn’t vote against him feel that shame deeply, as evidenced by the fact that they cry like little bitches whenever you remind them.
Pfft. The ones who are still proud of themselves at this point I lump in with the Trumpers. Most of ya’ll are just reflexive contrarians who would never vote for anyone who might win. We didn’t lose your vote, because you aren’t possible to win over.
And those of you who speak this way about individuals who protested their voters seem incapable of seeing the bigger picture; that the reality is that people want to vote for a principled leader who believes in something, and the Democratic leadership failed us in 2024, just like they failed us in 2016. And even after winning in 2020, they still a managed to fail us by failing to uphold international law and failing to jail an insurrectionist pig that’s now in the white house.
They failed us because they believe in nothing, and that’s why people protested their vote. Wake the fuck up and focus on primaries in 2026, then the general, and so on, and prevent this from happening again.

Oh, like me!

Well, I could be convinced to vote Democrat in the general if the Democrat candidate is themselves a reflexive contrarian.
But with the current slurry the DNC is producing, I suppose you’re right that I’m nigh impossible to win over, yes.
Nailed it.
Who’s blaming? I am informing protest-non-voters what they voted for.
Most of them are a lost cause. I don’t think anyone is saying they are blameless.
