One thing we have going for us, although it doesn’t seem to be helping as much as one would think, is that Trump isn’t wasting any time showing his true colors. He could have played it cool and pretended he was going to be a rational methodical republican, like George Bush did at first. But no, Trump isn’t leaving the rash actions that he will take as president to the imagination. He’s going to throw the elderly and working class Americans of the midwest (that believed his rhetoric, and voted for him) directly under the bus, right away.

He’s doing it in broad daylight, right in front of everyone, as if to say, to the American people: “Just you try and stop me.”

Chris Hayes asked these folks questions, and they appear to be completely delusional about Trump’s true motivations and intent.

Do Trump voters know that Congress is organizing to turn Social Security, Medicare and the ACA into a tax cut for the wealthy? By Dave Winer, for Scripting.com

From the post:

The Trump voters, and there were quite a few, said some things that I think they are going to learn are wrong, and that will happen soon, especially if somehow there can be cross-pollination of news from MSNBC-land to and from Wisconsin-land, they might hear about the disasters-in-the-making before they are actually complete.

A Trump voter said, with no dissension, that the racist stuff that Trump campaigned on wasn’t real. But it is real. A Muslim woman there, born in Wisconsin, she spoke with a Wisconsin accent, wore a hijab, said she was scared for herself and her family. There’s talk in TrumpLand (the one on Fifth Ave in NYC) of requiring Muslims to register, even Muslims who are American citizens. So there it is. The racism is real. Registering comes first. Then armbands, then…

Do the Trump voters know that Congress, of the same party as the incoming president, is organizing to turn Social Security, Medicare and the ACA into a huge tax cut for the super wealthy? That’s your future. No retirement, even though you already paid for it, and you can buy health insurance with money you don’t have from an insurance industry that won’t sell it to you.

They seemed confident that there would be time to vote Trump out in four years. A big misunderstanding about how long it takes to undo social programs if you don’t care about the people who depend on them.
