Remember when dipshit conservative voters thought this admin was going to increase the quality of their lives by addressing the cost of living and corruption and waste in our government?

Instead, they elected people like themselves; children trapped in adult bodies. So this is what they get. Something that in no way makes their lives easier.

Hegseth is a waste of oxygen, but the bottom line is the majority of voting Americans are too, and that's why he's where he is. Our culture is rotten. Things aren't going to get better any time soon. America is too stupid for that.

Yes, but they are PWNING TEH LIBZ!

Why can't you see how that makes everything better?

Seriously, I was talking to one of the cons I know this weekend and he's balls-deep in the MAGA Cinematic Universe. This is someone that thinks we were living under tyranny under Obama and under Biden, and now that we have "freedom", he looks forward to the economy being so much more beautiful (he also idiotically thinks that the economy under Biden - and which was the envy of the world was just terrible - though to be fair, I keep hearing centrists, and quite a few so-called "leftists" say the exact same dopey thing in spite of all the evidence of my eyes).
