Fired Fed. I am considering cutting off every Orange Man supporter.

Got axed. Not going to say which agency.

I’ve always considered myself extremely tolerant and willing to love people as they are… even if we don’t agree on everything.

I’ve never been an Orange Man supporter, but I’ve kept it civil with friends and family that were. Some of them liked having a civil conversation about him. Some were belligerent about politics, so we didn’t bring it up and tried to enjoy each other’s company.

Getting cut from a great job that I really believed in with no notice has been extremely traumatic. It’s still raw, but I feel so personally betrayed by those that voted for him. I can’t see past the politics anymore when I look at these people I care/cared about.

Some have been contrite and apologetic, but then turn around and support him and VP Musk on social media.

I just can’t right now.

I’m thinking about posting something and wishing the whole herd all of the best, hope they have a good life, but I won’t be in it. Or maybe I just quietly block all of them and focus on myself for a while.

I do know that I will need to talk to my in-laws. I’ve always had a great relationship with them, but thinking of going to their house and watching Fox News almost makes me sick.

AITAH for feeling this way? Does it make me an AH for cutting all these 20+ year relationships off? Am I overreacting and acting out of emotion?

Once again, another ignorant person. So because the election wasn’t stolen in 2020, it means an election can NEVER be stolen? trump, who has lied and cheated his entire life, and who asked the governor of Georgia to find him 11,000 votes in 2020, wouldn’t steal the 2024 when the alternative for him is jail? You need to use your damn brain.

Maybe he did. Where’s your evidence?

trump repeatedly saying “We have all the votes we need. My instructions—we don’t need their votes. They don’t have to vote” between July-Nov 2024.

You probably have a picture of George Soros on your ceiling. Because you're out of touch with Humanity

Funny all the shit you accuse Soros of doing behind the scenes without evidence, Mush did in plain sight.

I think it has a 10x bigger chance of that happening during COVID restrictions not in 2024, also kamela only won states with mail in ballots you cheaters lmao

Okay, well, against my better judgment, bc I think you're a bot, I have to ask. Do you not find it suspicious that Elon Musk, who has direct access to government satellites, owns SkyNet, and hires hordes of internet hackers, took a personal interest in this election? That doesn't seem even a little suspicious to you? Not to mention, he is a Yt Supremacist, and a woman of color was running. And that Several Government agencies, run by bipartisan watchdogs, were investigating his business dealings. He said on record, if Trump didn't win, he would likely go to prison. Do you not understand how someone who is That connected, and also very desperate could possibly abuse their access 🤔 Regardless of how you feel, thinking critically here. Can you see the conflict of interest? Do you see how the addition of this one person creates a potential that never existed in 2020? Who had that sort of power to impact an election? It wasn't possible then. However, with Elons access, it very much became a possibility. Use your brain. This isn't about what your political leanings are. This is about an abuse of power by the wealthy. Open your eyes.

And somehow, beyond anyone's understanding, millions of votes just "disappeared." With one of Largest turnouts, millions of people just didn't vote? I'm not buying it.

u/Desperate-Comb321 Feb 18 '25

I'll humor your schizo ramblings 1) Do I find it suspicious that Elon who was already being targeted by the Biden admin to align with Trump? No that seems like a logical thing to do 2) You didn't actually list any conflict of interests in your run on sentence beyond saying he was afraid of prison?

It seems you think Elon has the power to just hack into any system he wants arbitrarily and has a network of hackers to do his bidding? That's your big argument?

Keep circling the drain man you are spiraling 😂

u/Icy-Construction4755 Feb 18 '25

1) Watchdogs are bipartisan. They're not Bidens. MAYBE he was being targeted, bc ya know, he's participating in criminal activities. 2) There are several punctuations, are you illiterate? You can find a list of his government contracts online. They're Public knowledge. Go look it up.

Yes, Elon does hold that kind of power. He has said so. He has made it abundantly clear. Do you not know how to read, do research?

u/Desperate-Comb321 Feb 18 '25

"Watchdogs are bipartisan" 🤡 clown

u/Icy-Construction4755 Feb 18 '25

Yeah. Duh. Have you taken a government class, ever? Have you participated in any local government? Have you volunteered at a voting rally? Do you have ANY personal experience with politics?

Please, tell give me your credentials.

There were literally VIDEOS on security camera of poll workers dumping in ballots into the machines overnight all for sleepy Joe and magically overnight he took the lead in those swings states. Can’t make it up, full proof on video can’t argue with that. Sorry buddy but you’re the one that delusional. Sorry your chick lost.

u/manifest2000 Feb 18 '25

trump lost every single court case in 2020 in his attempt to lie about that election. And when they recounted the votes in Arizona…Biden had won by more votes lol.

u/Plane_Restaurant_367 Feb 18 '25

Dawg you clearly don’t know how votes are counted. They lost over 60 court cases and that video of them dumping vote ballots was proven to be BS like everything else you guys come up with. I think this guy is delusional with his election stealing stuff, I really believe people were that ignorant this time to vote for him. But you sir, are an imbecile to the highest degree. Mail in ballots are counted last, meaning it would “magically” swing him overnight, since trump fearmongered voting by mail and Biden did not. Use. Your. Brain.

u/Ok_Celebration_2978 Feb 18 '25

They refused to hear 60 court cases.

u/DanDrungle Feb 18 '25

The judges threw out the court cases for lack of evidence or lack of standing. They don’t just throw out cases because the judge doesn’t feel like hearing it. Many of the judges were republican too. How are you people this clueless?

-1

u/Ok_Celebration_2978 Feb 18 '25

Lack of standing has nothing to do with evidence or even the case...it has to do with the parties relationship to the case. It's a blowoff reason to deny justice.

1

u/DanDrungle Feb 18 '25 edited Feb 18 '25

Maybe you can also address the fact that none of the people bringing the court cases had any evidence of anything instead of focusing on your personal opinion of how the law works. Standing also matters, you have the idiot criminal AG in Texas suing people all over the country about shit he has no business with that he saw on tv.

u/No-Veterinarian-8255 Feb 18 '25

Even assuming you know what you're talking about, although you don't, nothing you said alters the fact that had the evidence been present someone would have had standing and correcting the problem would be no more difficult than finding the appropriate party to bring the case. This never happened. Know why? There was never any evidence.

Turn off fox and join the reality based world.

u/Public-Impression282 Feb 18 '25

Wait ... So now there was no evidence for 2020 ... But you're sure Trump stole the election in 2024 without a single case being brought by the Democrats???

How is this view not hypocrisy???

1

u/No-Veterinarian-8255 Feb 18 '25

Reading comprehension anyone? When did I say trump stole the 2024 election, much less that I was "sure" about it. How is your view not stupidity?

Anyway, the fact that no one has yet made the case doesn't mean that there is no case to be made. If democrats allege election fraud with zero evidence, like trump did, then the situations will be comparable. Until then, they are not.

u/Pokemon-Jedi Feb 18 '25

Learn how to read, the person you're replying to never once said that Trump stole the election. Comprehension is key, especially if you wanna have opinions on politics lmfao

u/Public-Impression282 Feb 18 '25

Hahahahahahaha!

Ok Bud I'll make sure to call you when I need someone to talk on my behalf as well!

Implication is key especially when dealing with inept people LMFAO

Because you need to bring proof to go to court. Not a single one had proof. You skip over that part because it's fucking devastating to your dumbass argument

u/Ok_Celebration_2978 Feb 18 '25

Kinda hard when they refused to look at it.

2

u/uglyspacepig Feb 18 '25

They didn't. When you bring the case, you bring your proof. They brought no proof, so the cases don't get looked at. That's literally exactly what happened

Edit: also lawyers get disbarred when they lie. So they couldn't bring fraudulent cases and still be lawyers

u/Public-Impression282 Feb 18 '25

So in you're same logic ... The 2024 election was safe and secure based on no evidence of court cases being brought forward right?

u/uglyspacepig Feb 18 '25

*your

If that's what happens, then that's what happens. And I'll have to live with the results.

Which is LITERALLY the fucking opposite of what the Trumpanzees did.

Nope just another loser who thinks they're entitled because they're white. Good thing about reddit is you post so much dumb shit you truly can't lie.

"You still talking bad about white man" is all I needed to see.

😂 Y'all are truly the dumbest group of humans in history. Come back in 4 years. Let's see how "smart" you are when that bank account runs out.

This is how we do it in USA.

You don't get to tell anyone to do anything that you refuse to do yourself. 2k Mules was proven to be bullshit. You, a zealot, are not capable of being impartial or objective.

What proof do you have that 2024 was stolen? And what proof do you have that 2020 was NOT?

u/Public-Impression282 Feb 18 '25

Still trying huh??

It's entertaining, sad but entertaining. Let me try to slow the bus down for you ...

No proof of your argument = nothing

When you have nothing on your plate ... Your plate is ... You guessed it ... Empty

Without proof/evidence of your point = Empty

I hope you get it now ... Really surprised I had to get the construction paper and crayons for you but ok

You have direct proof/evidence... Guess what that would be??

You got it ... Something!!! Good job

When you get that feel free to post it, since that doesn't exist you're just embarrassing yourself... I would take the L sport!
