You’re laughing at him but degenerates like me who enjoy sports gambling are one of the fastest growing voting blocs in America. We demand our tax breaks.

I’ll give you the humble gambler a pass but if every employee at FanDuel and Draft Kings was taken out back with hammers I wouldn’t even click the NBC article about it

I'm a CPA and must admit I'm not aware of a 'tax dedication'. Grok, can you assist?

Whether it’s bankrupting an Atlantic City casino or bankrupting every professional poker in America, the truth of the matter is that Trump hates gamers.

Well, *single-player* games. Or ones that run on a user device rather than an external server or in a browser. We need to keep it compatible with the Make Adobe Restore Flash Games mandate. Also, any multi-player mode must be usable with a direct plug-in connection (or maybe Bluetooth, I guess).

This ☝️ isn't only a 'sin tax', pro Christian Right because gambling is a sin. It's also a targeted attack on Indigenous and Tribal Peoples!! Tribes own over 500 US casinos which make over $27 Billion annually.

Still makes me mad they kneecapped online poker only to then allow an even more destructive form of gambling. It was a more elegant degeneracy for a more civilized age.

It is the year 2025 and it is possible that supporting tax cuts for crypto gamblers may win over more young male voters than supporting the expansion of public mental health care
