When ABC News' Terry Moran asked Pres. Donald Trump to respond to voters who may be concerned that rising costs are not what they "signed up for," Trump responded: "Well, they did sign up for this actually."

This might be the most true thing Trump has ever said.

Every Trump voter is a pathetic beta cuck.

Wouldn’t that mean they

A. Have a relationship with a woman

B. That another man would want to shtup

I feel like 90% of these trump voters fail this test

Nothing he has said or done hasn't been openly boasted beforehand. His supporters just aren't willing to pay attention or think critically.

He's been screaming about tariffs at the top of his stupid fucking lungs for years. It's almost all he talked about on the campaign trail this time. Almost every reputable economist on the planet warned us that's not how tariffs work. I have no sympathy for his voters for being "blindsided."

But he was only supposed to raise prices for 'those' people, not us good godly muricans...
