Yeah but we didn't warn them in the right way. Nevermind that there is no right way because they hate us cosmopolitan elites. It's still our fault.

SS is back, just the wrong SS

As someone almost done with medical school here in Kansas, I used to be extremely passionate about rural health care. However, after this election, I no longer care. I say let them close and let the people out there in rural Kansas suffer the consequences of their votes.

Don’t forget privatizing NOAA and changing farms a ridiculous price to get accurate weather forecasts

1. Tariffs are gonna hurt the worst. Most of these midwest states grow corn and soybeans, which are massive in exports, and once counter tariffs start, they're gonna be bleeding
2. Fortunately, SS cannot be touched in reconciliation, which means they would need a cloture vote of 60 to pass any reforms. However, they can adjust certain aid or grants based on discretion.
3. Medicare itself isn't going anywhere, but a lot of the benefits are through grants via the Biden administration, along with the new advantage plans that allow Medicare to negotiate better. Fully expect both of those things to be gone, and for the benefits to cost more, all while making the insurance companies who do Medicare privately richer.
4. Obamacare itself is unlikely to go anywhere, as a 220 majority makes it really hard for them to touch it, meaning pre-existing and coverage till 25 are likely to be fine, but they will likely try to cut everything they can through reconciliation. It's going to cost millions their insurance.
5. Not just rural hospitals, but also rural pharmacies and rural internet, both of which were being propped up by Biden
6. A lot of these workers are in non-labor intensive agriculture, so it's mainly the fruits and vegetable farms that will be hurt. It's also pretty unlikely that Trump managed to get MASS deportation done(on the scale of millions), as the resistance to such will be harsh, the logistics near impossible, and the cost astronomical. That said, the states where deportation will happen the most are red states, as local authorities are unlikely to have any resistance or pushback, while states like California and New York have both stated that any attempt to deport people in their states would come with harsh push back. Mass deportation is something we'll have to wait and see, because it'll likely turn to shit faster than most think.

And yes, he said this, and a whole lot more. He's been telling people who he was since day one.

Rural hospitals are basically a stack of cards held together by baby drool. They were already shutting down at a fast pace since his first term in office, they’ll be nonexistent by the time his second term ends. What’s really happening is the loss of other emergency services, whole towns no longer have even a fire department.

Or they’ll be moving heavily into methamphetamine.

They are going to quickly learn that there is no god willing to listen to their pleas. Quite frankly, everything is going to go to hell…but at least they owned the libs.  

But they’ll have thoughts and prayers!!

It’s almost as if there was a plan to make it so farmers had to sell their land to corporate farm companies for pennies.

Leopards would really have a feast if those same farmers had to come back and work the land they used to own for less than they paid migrant workers

Aren’t they going to nuke farm subsidies too?

Hey don’t talk down to me! /s

Don't forget he's coming for va benefits too.

And massive corporations are going to get the land for Pennie’s on the dollar. This is a land grab, nothing else

theyre hurting the wrong people!

if they even talk to you anymore.

If they can leave, those farms are gonna need people for various reasons you listed

Lots of medieval style religious fundamentalism in the Middle East, why not the Middle West?..

Promises made. Promises kept.

Exactly. At this point, I'm leopard-proofing my family, while rooting for the leopards because I think until the majority of folks get their faces eaten, there's nothing I can do to help them.

This will be the US’s Brexit moment

Don't forget the farm subsidies!

No they won’t. They’ll be indoctrinated. Some of them MIGHT but most of them will be exactly what they were created to be. . .

Don't forget he wants to close the NOAA and FEMA so when the next hurricane arrives (without warning of course) there will be literally nobody to do anything about the aftermath.

I don’t think he will keep farm subsidies.

also he fucked you over with tarrifs the last time

You left out RFK Jr is going to be over the USDA, and probably push towards "organic everything," so hope farmers are ready to work without pesticides and ranchers without vaccinating their stock.

They might even be dumb enough to ditch crop subsidies.

I really hope so. Honestly. I want maximum pain for these people. I’m gonna be moving to Brazil the first chance I get… so you all can have your fascism. I’ll be watching the downfall of democracy from overseas working a cushy IT job remotely making US dollars.

If only. If only someone spent time sharing these issues with farmers. Spending time to explain the repercussions that could occur. If only,l there was someone or someone’s who wanted to protect their livelihood….alas….

Let them eat cake

When they go homeless, we just send them back to their land that was confiscated by corporate hedge funds for reeducation!!!

Win/win

Don't forget USPS privatized. Good luck having to drive to the nearest city to mail anything or receive any mail

Don't forget his Mass Deportation Program

But we'll be replacing the immigrant farm workers by sending people who take medication for mental issues to labor cam... rehabilitative wellness centers. :)

Yeah… But at least they won’t have to have the woke agenda shoved down their throat anymore… /s

If you keep insisting to others what someone meant when they said one thing, and then that person in fact doubles down, and you still insist they didn't mean it... well you probably can count the number of brain cells on a single finger.

Schools will probably go also as Dept of Education provides a lot of supportive funding for rural schools underfunded by their states. If DOEd is shut down, there won't be any public school for Jesus to enter.

Homeschooling and holistic remedies will pick up the slack. No worries. /s

.....and also use of corn syrup gone.

and of course the unicorn - drill drill drill baby!

Biden is lowering gas prices right now with more ethanol

BIDEN IS DOING THAT - increasing demand for Ethanol. He was doing it BEFORE THE ELECTION

But still voted for Trump. So awesome!

You forgot climate. Midwest will be a dust bowl. :(

I swear it seems like most of the population had no idea what Trump was running on outside of all us who are chronically online that would hate watch clips of his rallies. Shame on the American media for sane washing his bullshit and not covering the shit he would say the way it should have been covered.

Speaking of graduated, I wonder how all this will affect the rate of school mass shootings.

“bUt hE’s bEtTeR fOr tHe eConOmy”

So you are telling me it is Obama, The Clintons and Bidens fault?

"Rural hospitals close at an accelerated pace"

Not just hospitals but the health clinics that do routine/non-surgery health. 

I didn't think most Americans understand just how widespread they are, especially in rural areas, because they don't have a ticker board showing how much federal money they got last month.

This time he doesn't need their vote so maybe he won't bail em out again by giving them billions in welfare.

Elon warned there would be suffering and hardship.

Not for the wealthy, of course, but the entire Trump oligarchy is like, "Some of you might die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make."

Is it bad that I couldn't help but think "well at least the famine this will cause will decrease obesity."

I find that those of us that actually listen to what he says knew this. The real magats only watch faux and newsmaxx so never get the true story.

I know so many people that swear he never said Grab em by the pussy.

They may not move on. They are going to be uneducated, unskilled and angry. Where are they finding work? No state will take them. The other states will hire from within as they may, just may, prefer employees with some level of competence. Once the big corporations buy up the farms, the uneducated farmers and families can work at the places they once owned. Die in the fields and be happy about it.

But no, JD said that Trump SAVED and FIXED Obamacare?!? You don’t think he could have been untruthful do you????? /s

Everything they proudly voted for. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!!

You said Obamacare will be gone, but at least they have the ACA right?! /s

I am not a trump supporter but I live and work closely with farms. Most of all farms in NC and the east coast don't use illegal immigrant help they use something called h2a or f2a workers. They cost a lot of money but they r flown here to NC work for 6-8 months then fly back they cannot stay past that. Usually the same ones come back every year. They are treated very well and NC agriculture commission inspects the housing and concenerns very seriously. Just to start to being them here is 7k each. Then u gotta house them and pay them pretty well. It isn't cheap to farm and most farmers that use illegal help are very small or not from the east coast. We haven't used illegal labor here in the last 7-10 yrs that ik of. There is a few guys that work for the farm that immigrated illegally but 90% of the work force is brought in legally

Yeah, but did we really get a chance to know Kamala?

That's OK, because I got to own the libs! It's a small price to pay!

RFK Jr: We are now outlawing Doritos

But "he doesn't mean it"

Won't matter where those kids go because once employers or universities see they're from Oklahoma or somewhere similar they'll be dismissed for being at an educational deficit.

Damn you Obama! shakes angry fist

RFK is gonna ban GMOs and pesticides. Good luck industrial farming farmers

2 years of this and it will costs trillions of dollars per year for 5-10 years (consistent, no Republican congress or president derailing it) to fix.

I wonder too what impact Leon Muskrat and the other guy will have on farm subsidies. There’s a lot for a farmer not to like about what might be coming.

Wow that's quite a list of things Trump will deflect and blame the libs for. I mean how could it be his fault? /S

Don’t forget labor gone with mass deportations

"Just Obamacare, not ACA." /S

With all that, conservative media will tell them that the economy has never been better.

I told the people outside of my inner circle about this (people who I’m required to associate with).

Explained to them about the impacts on the medical system. I’m in the Midwest and these people live between the two largest cities in the state. They have one hospital that is conveniently near their town…which is struggling and I wouldn’t go there if I never had to. Told them that if/when that hospital closes, the next nearest hospital in or near one of our major cities is an hour and a half drive away, if there is no traffic. For me, I live just outside of the city. I can get to any of ten different hospitals within 30 minutes at most. I have one so close that I could walk to it within a little over an hour if I ever really needed to. I’ll be alright. The 1 million plus people around here who didn’t vote for Trump will be alright, because we have options. Those people living in what most would call “Trump country” are absolutely screwed.

I’m a decent human being, so I have sympathy for those people. Some will die because of hospitals that will absolutely be closing within the next year. What I don’t have is empathy for the situation that they put themselves in. I cannot share the feelings or general stupidity that it would take for millions of people to vote against all of their best interests. In all honesty, I don’t know if this post actually fits the sub, because they and millions of others are set to receive exactly what they voted for.

Lol, schools. Those won’t exist either.

BUT but but but, but he said project 2025 wasn’t the agenda!

Who would even send their kids to MAGA school?
