I hate this framing that they were hoodwinked and lied too... They had 4 years of Trump to reference and lifetime of quotes and actions to judge. Every person who voted for Trump in 2024 needs to spend a few years eating $#!& Before I give them the time of day much less ask for their support.
If you voted for Trump in 2024 and finally realize that he lied to get your vote and things aren't going well, it's okay to change your mind.

Write your representative in Congress and tell them how you want them to vote. Tell them how things are going. Tell them to hold Trump accountable.

REPORTER: Do you think the independent redistricting commission should be disbanded?

HOCHUL: Yes. I'm tired with fighting this fight w/ my hand tied behind my back. With all due respect to the good govt groups, politics is a political process. And to think we're gonna do this with a purity test ...

Boyle: "This is really the breaking news ... because of the size of the deficits, because of the paygo act, that would trigger sequestration of Medicare, and it would total over $500 billion. The official figure that CBO confirms is $535 billion in cuts to Medicare."

As part of the red-carpet treatment, Saudi officials arranged for a fully operational mobile McDonald’s unit to accompany President Trump during his stay.

According to local reports, the unit was set up near the Saudi Royal Court.

One of the largest immigration detention centers on the west coast is located in Tacoma, Washington. It's a private prison run by GEO Group.

To my knowledge, the mayor of the city has never visited the prison to check on the facilities nor her constituents who are detained there.

Trump:

"Tariffs have come in and every country has called us... If we asked most of these countries to do us a favour, they would have said no. Now they'll do anything for us... Tariffs give us great power".

This is what really motivates Trump on tariffs - not trade, but corruption & quid pro quo.
