The other day I spoke with friends and former co-workers who I know voted for Trump. It turns out that some of their family members received a letter terminating their federal job. No severance pay, or unemployment benefits.
They had been working for the federal government for years, and their contract stated that they could not be fired unless they had done something wrong. They could not believe what is happening. Some now say that the biggest mistake of their lives was voting for Trump. They voted for others to lose their jobs and civil rights, not for themselves.
I guess they didn’t believe Trump when he said….. “I don’t care about you, I just want your vote “. These Trump supporters are suddenly surprised that cruelty and revenge as a political strategy actually hurts people, until it affects them.
Social Security, Medicaid, SNAP Benefits, Education Funding and Medical Research are next on the chopping block. Don't say you weren't warned.
