MAGAt loses his federal job

The trump sign probably only came down so they could put it back up at whatever trailer park they move into. They’ll gladly vote for the next trump-aligned fascist. These people are incapable of learning.

Yup. Realtor likely took it down because any political flag will devalue a house or turn away potential buyers.

Gonna be complaining DEI made him lose his job and Biden’s taxes made him lose his house

It’s kind of scary that 3 weeks is all it took for them to list their home.

“Most Working Americans Would Face Economic Hardship If They Missed More than One Paycheck”

And on top of that for most government workers their paychecks have been remarkably stable. Assuming you’ll always be employed plus easy credit and bad financial habits are a bad combination

Pretty much this. For many, up until basically right now, working in the federal government all but guaranteed employment for years. I tried very, very hard to be employed at my local NIOSH branch (sadly didn’t make the cut) because of this fact.

Man, that’s tragic. I was poor most of my early life, and when I finally started to make enough money to be comfortable, I knew that the thing I couldn’t do was fall into the lifestyle trap. Living well below my means saved me so much hardship when things weren’t going well. I know that many don’t ever get to the point of comfortable, though, and there’s a bit of luck and effort, to that.

I wish we could do that. Renting and buying houses today makes it incredibly difficult to live very far below your means.

Bet he also had a $100k truck parked in front of that home. Bought with a loan with 12% interest

12% is pretty insane for an asset that depreciates as fast as a vehicle does.

My first car had a 23% interest rate on the loan. I had no credit history and was relying on people I thought knew enough about car buying with me to help me know if I was getting shafted. That dealership has remained on my do not buy list ever since, even after changing ownership due to the previous owners practices of fraud

Because cars are status symbols and people are fucking stupid. So of course capitalists exploit these dumdums. There are even companies where you can rent-to-own tire rims. And of course those companies make hundreds of millions a year.

If their whole financial system is built on getting the next paycheck or else, this is quite to be expected. He might even be smart (for a magahead) putting it on the market as early as possible instead of clinging to it.

Doesn’t seem likely unless he was renting. Even if you miss one mortgage payment, your bank can’t take your house that fast. If he was renting, he might have been threatened with eviction and chose to leave.

If it was posted for sale it likely wasn’t a foreclosure that fast. Perhaps the owner did the math and saw very quickly that they wouldn’t be able to keep up with the mortgage, or no longer had any reason to live in that city because they were there only for the job. With the job gone, the need of the house in that city goes with it. I’m just speculating.

Honestly might just be that, especially if they were working in DC proper.

Well if he was renting, his house being up for sale wouldn’t really matter.

It just kinda proves to me that the story is most likely bullshit, or they were always planning to sell the house.

The fact that this guy posts this on X with a paid-for blue checkmark tells you everything about why Trump won and why he’ll keep winning. The left has made almost no effort to win the information space. They just lose and then celebrate when some of the harm falls back on MAGA.

How about his for a change: Win. Try to win. Stop kowtowing to right wing information propaganda spaces that stifle the left like X, Fox News, and Rogan. Fight them like the right fights the left in the information space. True, you won’t get to celebrate when your neighbor suffers from Trump, but it’ll be because he didn’t vote Trump in the first place.

I saw the “Dems are the Uvalde cops Magas are the shooters.” And goddamn it salpped ever since. You guys need to get a real 3rd party that is real grassroots socialist.

I’ve been watching people go on and on about a Socialist revolution since I read about Gene Debs in high school.

I haven’t seen them actually do anything yet.

Need to finish that Elden Ring dlc first.

Easy to say, hard to do.

that would be me. sucks im too poor to run a campaign though lmao.

This is a liberal account, he’s not a leftist. Leftists have been in the streets, while liberals remain in the tweets.

Nice rhyme, might steal it

I don’t believe in intellectual property, so you can’t. It’s yours as much as mine.

You expect a “both sides” maga to know that? Seeing all these “it’s the dem’s fault for not telling us how shit trump would treat us” folks is crazy. Everyone want to blame the dems for the lepords.

The democrats ran the same candidate against Trump and lost two out of the three times they tried. Do you happen to know the definition of insanity?

put that on a bumper sticker

everyone in the country should be liberal. but it seems most just ignore the term and definition behind it though and just assume only left/democrats want to have freedom

There must be dozens of them.

Thanks, I literally thought it up when I typed “in the streets”.

It’s amazing how everyone doing everything right is a leftist and everyone they disagree with/who isn’t doing things right is a liberal. That’s why leftists are in position of power!

Remind me again, are the democrats currently in power?

We really need a Herman Cain Award for Trumpers who have lost their livelihoods. I used to love the old compilations of dozens of posts only to have the inevitable “COVID ain’t no joke”.

Covid deniers when their opponent is covid

That’s a little big, but not too far off from the actual world’s smallest violin
