General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: I've been hurting my brain trying to figure out how any sane person could still support tRump. Then [View all]A HERETIC I AM
(24,876 posts)This is what a co-worker/fellow truck driver told me yesterday when the conversation turned to how Trumpy was handling the current situation.
I've ridden with this guy in the past, as he does the same, 48 hour trip up to Cincinnati, over to Pittsburgh and back twice a week.
We were talking about how the company had made changes to another long distance trip and I said something about how bad it could get if the Postal Service started closing the huge sorting centers we both go to for lack of personnel.
"Not gonna happen" he said.
"Why"
"Cause they got it under control"
I told him about the situation in Italy where the largest hospital in the north of that country was being overwhelmed by patients. he then gave me some bullshit about how that wont happen here because Italy didn't "close their borders with China and Trump did"
I said Trumpy has bungled the response since day one
"You need to stop drinking that Koolaid"
Ahhh...I see....This was quickly going to devolve into a "I'm not stupid and gullible, YOU are" kind of thing.
He got right in my face when I asked him if he was calling me "a special kind of stupid"
"You are if you vote Democrat"
Well, you fucking dopey redneck asshole, I hope you get sneezed on by the wrong person now.
The Dunning - Kruger effect in action.
BTW, He's HUGE (and by that I mean morbidly obese) and can't walk further than about 50 yards without a sit down. I don't wish death on him, but....well..... fuck him anyway.
