(80,700 posts)I hate it, too, when somebody treats the employees like shit. They already get paid shit. They shouldn't have to take abuse as well.
And I'm reminded of that ol' cliche - "elections have consequences." And that goes double for the deplorables. I'm having a VERY difficult time "understanding" them, as I'm often told I must do. Nobody held a gun to their heads and ordered them to vote for him. The truth was all out there. His lousy track record (on so many fronts) was out there on the record. The choice was glaringly obvious. And they went the wrong way. Willingly. Even eagerly, including those we tried to warn - that it would utterly screw THEM IN PARTICULAR! They believed the lies and the bullshit. So that's what they get now. And they will reap the whirlwind (and the killer tornado, and the Category 5 hurricane, and the 8.1 earthquake, and the Ebola epidemic - for which they'll very likely lose their health care).
Hope they're happy...
