Rules:
- The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
- Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.) Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
- For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
- Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
- This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
- All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

MODERATORS
It's important to remember that these people were lied to on every issue except immigration. They come by their anger honestly, and y'all are going to need those votes in 2026 if you want any hope of changing anything.
We were all lied to. They need to take the blame for believing any of this BS. Seriously. How far can your head fit inside your own ass to believe a fucking word from this administration? Ugh. I'd agree with you about votes if I thought there was any chance of a fair election, but the last one wasn't fair, and they are making sure the next ones are less so.
They don't hear words from the administration. They hear Fox News, see their FaceBook feed and talk to friends and neighbors.
It’s not like they’re ever going to change voting for him. At this point, why care?
Because they actually might. These economic conditions are threatening their very survival.
So don't let schadenfreude make you stupid.
He did the exact same thing to farmers in his last term and the still voted for him again.
Sorta? It wasn't nearly as bad as this and he got subsidies for them.
LOL no they won't. When they get to the ballot box, a lifetime of being a Republican will prevent them from voting for anyone else. Regardless of everything else, they're still a Republican voter and Republican voters never vote Democrat no matter what. They'll lick a boot before they vote Democrat.
Plenty of conservatives loath Trump. They won't vote for him, but they'll stay home before voting D.
Then they’ll go out of business and their farm will be bought by a big corporation. Congratulations on getting what you voted for, I guess
They were lied to on immigration as well. But the problem is they have to realize they were being lied to on the other stuff too.
