Also, for the record I'm happy to report that my workday was actually stress free. I disassociated with enough former friends that I was never harassed at all about the election results. The few right wing friends I still speak with were respectful. The one I was most concerned with did approach my area first thing in the morning, which I feared would lead to something unpleasant, but he seemed to only actually be checking on how I was doing. Then he just asked about Venom 3, because other than being the work liberal my other title is movie guy. I appreciated it, and it gave me a little hope that maybe not every Trump voter is out of reach entirely.
The only comment he made was actually just "I would have been fine if Kamala won, I just want to not pay $8 a pound for ground beef". So yeah, the actual sort of ignorance to how things work that probably put this guy back in office. I feel the best course of action though if people really want to engage Trump voters and see if there's a way to win them over is to wait a while for now. He won't have all those gifts Obama left him this time around.
Yeah well...grocery prices might drop some if we just stop having food safety standards i guess.
But yeah the tarriff stuff is gonna be really bad for the one thing NOT really hit too bad by inflation, consumer goods.
So thatll be fun for those idiots.
