My hubby and I are both on Social Security. I am a retired school teacher he is a retired mechanic. Its really a stetch to make money last through the week just for food. My daughter who is in her 30's struggles to pay her bills. Its just outrageous! And all they care about is the rich.
What state are you from? I am also a retired teacher not yet using SS but my teacher retirement ( mn) is enough - but I taught for 38 years
I am from Virginia. Took early retirement right before Covid hit. Taught Middle school science, 7th grade.
Totally understand-
Just wait, it’s going to get WORSE!! Everything meant to HELP the WORKING POOR is disappearing 💔💔 The REPUBLICANS DON’T CARE 😡
You are correct. They won't care till it hits them. I dare say alot of MAGA are on Medicaid At 69, I never thought we would we going thru this crap. The struggle is real and I will not give up or give in.
I'm a retired mechanic too and inherited a house. Without the house my wife and myself would be living in one of our old cars. Rent is ridiculous, let alone food and everything else.
Vote Blue and get your friends and your daughter's friends to do the same.
Yes , they do not care about anyone but themselves. We the working or retired poor, mean nothing. We are a dime a dozen to them.
How happy are you with TRUMP eliminating democrats taxing Social Security?
What’s a good solution for you your hubby ?About your daughter in her thirties did she put that clown and his regime in office thinking they’d really help her?
No she voted for Kamala. She has voted in every election for a Democrat.
What’s wrong with you Kevin? Why do you automatically assume that her daughter voted for Trump? And why would that mean she deserves to suffer for the choices made by billionaires?
My 30 some old kids voted for Kamala. Always have voted Blue like their mom, dad and step dad.
What’s wrong with me is I’m sick of post election bitching. When most of the people who are bitching voted for that fool
It sounds like you live in a red state. The only ones I know who are bitching are Democrats, but I live in a blue state; none of the maga I know are bitching yet.
I live in Virginia. I am a Democrat. I know alot of Dems and Republicans are both complaining.
If I hear a maga, (family members), complaining, they blame Biden and his policies.
Luckily all my family are woke. Friends who are MAGA are no longer my friends
I no longer speak to most of my family and have no friends. I am too opinionated to keep the peace by keeping my mouth shut.
Same here about keeping my mouth shut.
Voter’s remorse?
I vote Blue since I first voted for Jimmy Carter.
IKR? And now the regime wants to take that from us (and Medicare).
As a Cowboys fan, I hate to admit that you’re right 😀 I see your struggles and add….. “and my football team hasn’t been to or won a Super Bowl in 30 dang years.” It’s rough out here.
Steelers fan since 4 yrs old. Remember what good football was.
Cowboys fan since the late 70’s. I also happen to be a Cubs fan. So, I have lived through some shit 😀
I'm sorry to hear this. It's a disgrace after working hard your entire life and contributing so much to American society. Not only does the duopoly have no respect for us, but they work as hard as they can to make our lives more difficult daily. Meanwhile Israelis have free healthcare and education.
And yet there are many people in your situation who still support maga! Continue to do what you’re doing: speak up, speak out, contribute and vote blue, every election top to bottom. Sweeping both houses in 2026 is our only way out of this madness
I email, go to a bridge protest every Friday.
👍 Me too. It’s hard to talk about with friends and family but it makes it more real, easier for them to relate so I do it anyway. Stay strong, you’re not alone
But did you vote for Trump ?
Never in a million years. Would never vote for that racist, rapist, fraud ,cheater, traitor. No I didnt vote for Trump and never will. And I will never forgive anyone who voted for him or just didnt vote.
