‘I can’t believe someone is trying to rip me off’
How the hell is he winning so much of the Black and Hispanic vote? Like… any percentage at all?
Because most people don’t follow politics that closely and are simply unaware of stories like this, but are vulnerable to the forces of nostalgia and false memories of the first Trump administration, plus lingering fondness from the character he played on the Apprentice.
A higher percent of the Hispanic support than any republican nominee in history (as high as 45%) with closest next being George W. Bush.
Do they just not know that he’s trying to kill them?
Surely this leopard won’t eat MY face!
Apparently not, otherwise they have some serious delusions going on…
He’s not, he had higher polling with African Americans in the last two elections than actual voters, he had extremely low voting numbers with African Americans, slightly higher with men, but not by that much, it’s really common in politics to have a lot of people doing shady bullshit to see if it will sway elections, also the population nation wide is low enough that getting a sample size that’s actually representative is not likely, even some trusted unbiased polling was using the opinion of one single person to represent all polling numbers in a whole state and the poll was pretty old by that point as well, so with African Americans you see a lot of really strange lookin poll numbers, but believe me, Trump going after Haitian refugees with racist tropes about ‘‘savage’’ and voodoo bullshit made him quite vile to antiracists of all stripes, I don’t think those numbers are going to pan out at all.
Now Hispanics, that’s a whole different story, being Hispanic myself I can tell you, it’s not a solid voting block. We aren’t as good at consistently voting in our own interests. There’s light skinned people who think they’re white enough to be in the whites only club, racism isn’t hard to find among Hispanics, many do hate African Americans and others, so the white identifying crowd can be pretty similar to racist whites in a lot of ways, you also have Hispanics that are very concerned with hyper mauculinity and want the strongest man, and only think in terms of displays vs substance, and there’s deeply religious Hispanics who can get drawn in with the evangelical rhetoric. So your not going to see a big percentage on one vote or issue with Hispanics, it’s always going to be a mixed bag even with Trump’s promise too deport more Hispanics from the US regardless of legal status, or his call backs to ‘‘operation wetback’’ or this bullshit, you just won’t see big sweeping numbers from Hispanics it will always be slip up.
Hispanics have a very high population of religious voters and many of them don’t believe in abortion. For many religious people, even if they disagree handily with everything else the Republican party does, they will not vote Democrat because of the abortion issue.
There was a pretty large research study and a bunch of podcasts on it.
well you have Cubans for one…
Considering how he treated Ivana’s grave I’m really not shocked that he’d be an asshole about someone he doesn’t know at all.
Trump was reportedly still irked by the bill later that same day, with him claiming that Guillén’s grieving family was trying to take advantage of his wealth.
“Can you believe it?” he said, according to a witness. “F—ing people, trying to rip me off.”
So this is rather telling, him thinking that the “money of the US government” is “my money”
This is because he desperately is clinging to the ancient ideal (and I mean ANCIENT. Like early Middle Ages ancient) that everything in the kingdom is the direct and personal property of the king.
So in that sense, the billions of dollars allocated to the military every year is actually his money.
Is anyone surprised by this?
He had his wife buried for a fraction and stuck her on his shit golf course

He should not only do it, but he should live stream it.
Just one more thing that should absolutely torpedo any political career, that won’t hurt him at all. His MAGAt cultists probably think that was “speaking the truth” or some stupid shit like that. Anyone who would be bothered by his comments has abandoned him ages ago.
Somehow, some way, this orange clown makes me angrier everyday, even when I thought I’d seen the worst of him.
Trump reportedly complained later in the day that these “fucking people” are “trying to rip me off.”
He thinks it’s his money.
He-s mad he’s not in the Funeral business.
I mean, to be fair, at least someone cares about the egregious waste that taxpayers spend their money on just to make rich people rich.
It most certainly should not cost $60k of taxpayer money to bury a soldier. Someone, odds are a small group of interconnected people, is making profit off of fleecing the American public.
That cost isn’t even high by civilian standards, and the military has struggled to provide proper servicee, you’d be surprised how many people who are in uniform providing services at military funerals are just people willing to volunteer to do so at their own cost, some travel quite a length to do so.
The next time someone asks you about being a patriot, supporting the troops, and so forth, keep in mind that your against proper funeral services for veterans to save a nickel and represent that view. Be honest, let them know you don’t care.
That’s not what he cares about here, though. Very obviously.
As one of SO MANY examples, he charged the secret service, i.e. Taxpayers, ridiculously inflated daily costs after requiring that they stay in trump owned properties throughout his time in office and have events planned and catered by his businesses at equally exorbitant prices.
So, on balance here, You’re either ignorant or you’re intentionally trying to show trump in what you think is a favorable light. You can acknowledge that what you said here is unfathomably short sighted at best and edit your original post OR you can just sit there unmoved and show your whole ass as a fraud trying to make a coward’s argument for trump.
The only problem I have with your statement is the implication that the only “someone” is trump.
Everyone should care about waste or excess spending.
Edit: and trump himself has driven a shitload of waste and excess for personal gain.
We never buried my Dad’s ashes ⚱️. That’s dumb. Why go establish a debt to keep someone’s ashes in a bottle. We keep them in the living room. It’s just ashes. I personally agree with Trump on this. He’s still going to loose and am still gonna kick his nuts off when I find him in hell after I pass away. And most Mexicans aren’t fucking…not right now at this moment. It’s daylight. We’re working.
Trump said he’d fund it. He didn’t
If he’s not going to keep his promises, he should f**K off.
Wouldn’t it be great if what we do with our loved ones after their passing is not up to you or Trump though?
Exactly! I don’t care what anyone else does at all with any of their loved ones. And I expect the same. What kind of an asshole stands in between that situation.
Latinos , take notice
they won’t
Trump cultists: “He isn’t racist.”
“You see, he meant it as in: “A mexican that fucks”, which is a totally normal thing to say.”
Yes a totally normal thing to say about a sexual assault victim who was murdered by her assaulter.
To be fair to him that is an exorbitant amount.
I could see a frustrated dad grumbling about “Price of X” on his own time, and it wouldn’t be the death of their character. My dad has extended frustration to me when I’ve overpaid for things.
What sets this moment apart, to me, is the choice of language for the noun. “a fucking Mexican”. It’s extremely important to me that THAT is his label, and that racial identity somehow influenced the expected cost in his mind.
Then maybe he should look at what he did as president and realize why he should fuck right off and not ever be seen again.
“Donald Trump raged when he learned the funeral bill for Vanessa Guillén—the U.S. soldier who was sexually harassed and horrifically murdered by a male soldier at Fort Hood in 2020—cost $60,000, a bombshell report revealed Tuesday.
That outburst came after Trump invited Guillén’s loved ones to the White House and offered to pay for her funeral…”
He offered to pay. No one asked him to do that.
I’m not upset that he’s upset at the amount. It’s purely the second half of that sentence that shows what a piece of shit he is
