I don't ever wish for anyone to lose their livelihood as it can be brutal in unimaginable

ways. I have never experienced such firsthand - never laid off anyone - fired my fair share of poor performers. One of our three children are currently being squeezed by a takeover and we will assist in every way possible and the spouse impacted is one of the hardest working people I know - no fault of his own, it happens.
As for the federal government employees being displaced, unemployed - I get it but you were never meant to be bulletproof. You work for us and your bosses spent like drunken sailors and it had to stop sooner or later because you are depleting my ability to provide.
If I don't want nor can afford a product - I don't purchase but I have had no voice in your employment - other than to break the law and not pay taxes which would have no effect upon you. I am deeply sorrowful for your current plight but the rest of America lives with this hovering cloud every day. To do nothing would be catastrophic for the overwhelming majority of us and that is unacceptable. I could be empathetic if living within one's means was happening but that has not been the case for years. Be angry but make sure your aim is directed where it belongs - at those who have been fleecing others for their own gain.

Every time I got laid off it worked out to my advantage.

Yet Trump continues to spend like a drunken sailor

On what Tardo?
Just one example is all I ask.

I’ve spoken to four close friends today who are barely staying afloat in this economy and living off savings. It’s very difficult for multiple industries in the private sector. There are no sob stories for us.

The thing is, without all the bureaucracy their regulations create, businesses could produce more faster and therefore create jobs for these people.

I was laid off when I was in my early 20s. I hated the job and it was somewhat dangerous but I didn't have enough sense to quit. I went back and finished college. It turned out well.

Lay offs and getting let go is a fact of life. Sometimes it's our fault and sometimes it's unfair.
Life is a bitch and really doesn't care about our whining voices. Suck it up and do what ya gotta do.

His trip to the Superbowl. Using Air Force One to fly around Daytona, overcharging the Secret Service while he stays at his resorts (where he spends most of his time)

Unlike the former POTUS who worked 1 of every 3 days and did absolutely nothing to mitigate the size and growth of the Federal government...billions to Ukraine, billions for illegals....he was awful

The FEDGOV was paying like $30k a month to rent a house so they could protect that piece of crap Hunter Biden. Dude wasn't elected to anything. There was a greater chance of him killing himself than some deranged person getting him.

Life is not fair and you’re not entitle to jack squat. Work, save, do good in school, and don’t marry a crazy whore.
Holy shite this country is so full of weak dumb people. No wonder it’s so easy to be a big fish in this retarded pond. Everyone else is a fricking guppie. I guess that’s OK with me. If everyone was like me I’d have too much competition and not be able to do as well.
