In this clip, Tara Devlin from Tarabuster unpacks a post from Democratic Underground, where a woman confronts a vocal MAGA supporter complaining about the skyrocketing cost of her insulin.
Sharing her frustrations with her liberal friend, who posted details of the encounter on DU, this Trump-supporting Medicare recipient was furious her lifesaving prescription (once an affordable $10 thanks to Joe Biden and the Democrats) has now risen to a crushing $782 (under Donald Trump).
Just one week in, and we can already say “I told you so”. Though, “Kentucky Woman” from DU has a more pointed response - “TOUGH SHIT”.
Thank you, Kentucky Woman, for seizing the opportunity to enlighten someone about the consequences of voting for their own demise. Since the mainstream media won’t step up, it’s our duty to remind the Trump-voting “forgotten men and women” that, despite the convicted felon President’s promise to lower the cost of living “on day one,” the miseries they so shamefully hoped would only be visited on targeted minority groups won’t make exceptions for them.
Republicans, it seems, only “see the light” when they are affected directly. Now, it’s up to patriots to remind them that the leopards are indeed here for their faces as well.
One day at a time, dear patriots. One day at a time.
“We stick together, we win!”
I'd like to say fuck 'em, but they fucked all of us, too. Oh, what the hell... Fuck 'em anyway. Ignorant, racist shitheads.
Yep. That’s the worst part of this all. 31.8% of the American voting population gave us this nightmare - but good people will be hurt too.
I've made this analogy on numerous occasions through the years...
I can only warn my kid so many times that the fire will burn so don't touch it. If they proceed to touch it then so be it. They'll learn the hard way.
Same thing here. They voted for this, don't expect sympathy from us...we warned you.
Tough shit indeed.
