I think my favorite flavor of Trump voter is the person who a) is very upset about high grocery prices and b) is fired up about Trump's plan to deport 50% of the nation's agricultural workforce.

They are great, but my favorite is the (hopefully) rare TikTok radical who is voting Trump to hurt white people or advance racial justice.

My favorite is definitely the one who brags about how his small business growth has been better than ever these last few years and his stocks are soaring… …and then launches into a temper tantrum about how Biden has torched the economy with socialist policies. Not that I know anyone like this…

My favorite is the construction worker who is seeing more construction happening now than ever before due to the infrastructure bills, but is voting for Trump because he hates all the traffic the construction is causing.

don't worry, the 50% can grow something in another country which will then be subjected to 100% tariffs!

166% of the nation's agricultural workforce I think, they want to deport 20 million in a country with an estimate 12 million undocumented workers.

my favorites, i guess, are the republican united states senators who are mostly chihuahuas yapping around trump. but every now & then, like post-Jan 6, they whirl at him & yap & snap, angrily. a few days later, they're his hoard of rat dogs again. (lookin at you Lindsey, MoscowMitch... et al)

Mad enough about economics to absolutely undermine any hope of recovering from the smugly evil shit Stephen Miller is joyously waiting to unleash on the Nation. So much of Trump's plan is about waiting to do the 'Hold My Beer' to Brexit.
