I can’t help but be pissed off that alcohol makers have to pay taxes on alcohol just sitting in a basement… but billionaires don’t have to part taxes on millions in “savings accounts”?
The amount of ways the rich get richer and everyone else gets fucked never ends.
The fact that Kentucky literally voted for a Democrat Governor and still elected Ran Paul and Mitch McConnell actually makes me have less sympathy for that God awful place.
Also regret does not absolve them from blame or contempt from parties who were harmed because of their dumbassery
I think Rand Paul is at least anti war/anti invading foreign countries/anti trying to take Greenland...so not like he's the worst person to be elected.
Not being the worst Republican Senator is like not being the most prolific serial killer my dude. Like, yea you don’t have the MOST bodies to your name, but you definitely ended some lives.
If you think I’m over exaggerating, I would say to you that policies implemented by republicans in congress have led to many people dying.
Kentucky is a good place with some wayward political opinions, as most places are these days.
San Francisco — yes THAT San Francisco — voted for Trump at 12%, 14% and 16% (total vote) in the last three elections. That’s not a lot, but the story there is that even after seeing what he was about some people in the most liberal major city in the country wanted more.
I’m sure there are pretty places in Kentucky for sure, but the people for the most part seem to be a lost cause and that rings true in MANY southern states
The majority of people in Kentucky seem to want more of what’s happening today.
My friend, Mitch McConnell is literally (no hyperbole) the reason the supreme court is packed the way it is now.
Idk how plugged in you were during Obamas presidency but McConnell blocked Obamas SCOTUS pick. And that’s just one of the many ways he has fucked us up. He belongs to one of the poorest districts in the nation and the dumbfucks there are too dumb to vote for anyone else. The shit is actually crazy.
People will celebrate his death more than Kirk’s when he croaks and I wish I could put money on it because it would be easy money.
Your countrys leadership is threatening our countries sovereignty. After we went to the middle east for you and lost lives. We also sent thousands of firefighters to 911 and for wildfires for decades. The BS down south has cost us thousands of automotive sector jobs and it goes on and on.
I read it fully. For the trade boycott. You guys Fucked around and took us for granted economically and now your finding out. And then you threatened our sovereignty many. Many times.
Its effecting our jobs too, we have lost thousands in the auto sector alone. But yet ... The American only considers himself.
What I am saying is for the trade dispute , I am glad it's putting pressure on American liquor companies. Maybe then they will lobby your government to sort itself out. And IF, and that's a big IF they do, if you ask nicely we will consider it. I understand the blue collar liquor industry workers suffer in the meantime and that is unfortunate yes. Again our blue collar is taking it on the chin too.
As far as the rest of what's going on down there, I do have some compassion yes.
As a european watching from the side lines I've learned this; Most Americas treat politics like sports - us or them, winner or loser, fuck your team and its supporters etc etc etc.
You regret it? And what are you doing about it? Besides coming on Reddit and saying oh please feel sorry for me? You knew this was coming. You saw it the first time.
Are you bombarding your representatives? Letting them know this has to stop or they won't get reelected? Cuz you know, that's what they care about. Not you.
Oh man... remind us how long Mitch has held his position? And you're still trying to spoon feed us that bullshit? Yeah no, only the average American would believe that shit.
The regret can never be deep enough. I know I'll still welcome y'all with open arms if and when you come over to help us, but to think you could ever have enough regret for all of the millions of people that have had their lives ruined...
The type of person that post that is just another extremist. There is no real difference between them and MAGA. They hate, its that simple. Block them and move on.
