More than half of the $23 million-plus [Trump] raised has come from people who identify their occupation as “retired.” Other titles of people who gave the most contributions in aggregate include “attorney,” “CEO,” “sales” and “home maker.”

    It just wouldn’t feel so wretched if they weren’t the ones that told us growing up to not listen to everything we heard on the internet, or to always watch out for slick fellas looking to cash in on you, then them turn around and get taken for just that. Then they turn around and yell at us about how we’re now the ones being unreasonable for having listened to them all those years.

    I feel bad they’ve been taken advantage of. But I don’t feel bad that they let themselves get to that point.

    Everyone has to know when enough is enough.

      Yep, and don’t forget that they’re the ones who taught us to stand up for what’s right, but now they stand up for someone who is clearly a career criminal and the worst kind of racist, and a lying, cheating theif. Their response to all that? A resounding “meh, politics. It’s all political”

      Yeah, you are definitely not wrong. My mom is one of them now and the brain rot is real, but also so much of my childhood makes sense. It was always there in some form.
