Wonder how many of these firefighters voted for Trump? Hope they realize now, he doesn’t give a fuck about you. Unless you’re giving him millions, then he’ll rep your car company on the white house lawn
First, don’t stereotype. Many older men are anti-Trump.
Second, making help dependent on political views makes us no better than MAGA.
This is a reductionist statement that discards people based on a flawed and imposed perception of them.
Finally, and the least important point of all, many of the men you are talking about have social media histories which refute your claim. As I said, this doesn’t matter because even MAGA chuds deserve healthcare.
This feels like 1 spite politics, or 2 bot propaganda to defend dehumanizing Republican actions.
Gross.
The person you responded to made two claims. One stating Trump doesn’t care about firefighters and another stating that Trump will rep your company if you pay him enough. They didn’t claim anything about “older men”. They didn’t even claim that many of them DID vote for Trump. They just wondered how many of them might have voted for Trump and are now experiencing a “Leopards ate my face” moment.
You’re putting words into someone else’s mouth and that’s what’s gross.
I understand the debate perversion nitpicking you are engaging in, and it’s a silly way to intentionally misunderstand someone.
The firefighters are all older men due to their profession and the nature of time. I understand their claim, you understand mine. I am not rejoicing in causing harm to others, and you are. I will gladly maintain an opposing view to people who think in that manner.
“Many”?
Pfft. That ephemeral claim implies hope in hidden numbers but is pitifully lacking IRL, and slopping that limp dick around is irresponsible at best (meanwhile, signaling to your fellow citizens that maybe you’re not doing so hot, on the inside).
“Many”, in this instance, is a wheezy rallying cry with zero confidence, squeaking up from an impacted minority that wishes their impotence in the face of oppression were anything but.
even MAGA chuds deserve healthcare.
No. They don’t — unless by that you meant “the most efficient, humane kind of EoL healthcare that a dollar can buy”, then by all means.
Many of them did. Maga is popular among firefighters and cops.
At this point screw them, I have no empathy for maga fucks.
The bitter irony to be a staunch republican voter while working in a completely socialized field for a barely livable wage.
More like billions but yeah
If there was one thing I think could get Jon Stewart officially involved in politics it might be this. What a colossal fuckup.
Stewart should have run when he was younger.
He’s 62. It’s a shame that I hear that and think “only” 62, but compared to the recent couple options we’ve had, he’s a spring chicken.
62 isn’t even that old. Average life expectancy for American men is ≈76, and that’s including our terrible lifestyles and eating habits.
If he got elected in 2028, he’d be 66, and even if he served two consecutive terms, he’d be 74 by the end—several years younger than Biden or Trump when they each started, and still younger than even the average life expectancy.
US males that are 62 have an average life expectancy of 82.
Stewart/Mangione for president?
“Straight-shooters for healthcare”
Again? Didn’t this happen 3 weeks ago and they almost immediately backtracked?
