We realize that most Americans didn’t vote for Trump (only 49.8%) and that most of those who did probably didn’t understand what tariffs are and how they work and we realize that Trump’s action and our response are going to hurt poor Americans, and poor Americans in red states more than others, but we’re not going to take illegal tariffs sitting down.
Just a reminder who Trump is pissing off.

Nah, that’s a shit take. If you didn’t vote, you’re at least okay with the prospect of another Trump presidency, or you didn’t care enough to vote against him. You’re complicit either way.
Hard disagree. Those who didn’t vote said exactly what they stood for. Dems had the power, and completely ignored it and didn’t get voted in as a result.
If you’re blaming non-voters you’re just causing unnecessary division amongst the left. The US has been fascist for a long time. And everything happening has been a long time coming. Trump is a symptom, not the cause.
I don’t know - in some parts of America, getting out and voting is made more difficult. On purpose.
We all saw that voting by mail can work during Covid. The qons want to claw that back.
Some things that are necessary are also hard. If you don’t do something necessary because it wasn’t as easy as you thought it should be then you’re a piece of shit. Nothing will change until Americans collectively decide to make good choices in spite of the difficulty and you’re making that take longer by helping people feel justified in taking the lazy way out.
