A Maryland hairdresser who voted for Donald Trump in 2024 after believing his promises to lower living costs said she has since lost her home and car, struggled to pay her credit cards, and watched customers disappear from her business. Now, she bitterly regrets helping return him to the White House, declaring that only the devil could govern with such cruelty.
Celia Salmerón, 58, accused the Trump administration of bringing hardship rather than the financial relief he promised voters. She immigrated from El Salvador as a child, and now runs a hair salon in a working-class Maryland neighbourhood with a large Hispanic population.
‘He promised to give us money. But he didn’t give us anything. What he gave us this time were problems,’ Salmerón recently told a media outlet, adding that she had been unable to keep up with her debts and had lost almost everything she worked to build.
‘Ever since Trump came in, I have been bankrupt. I have lost everything: my house, my car. I can’t pay my credit cards,’ she said.
I wish humans were smarter :(
I wish they had more empathy more than anything else.
Fun Fact: Conservatives are biologiclly unable to experience empathy. It is not possible to hold conservative views and experience empathy simultaneously.
Conservatives are limited by ingroup/outgroup thinking when it comes to empathy, the Epstein class simply lost their empathy altogether. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-wealth-reduces-compassion/
Conservatives and Capitalism are what is killing us AND the planet we live on.
Granted. One person is now insanely smart, enough so that the average human intelligence is significantly raised, but in practice nobody ever listens to the smart person because they’re too dumb.
Wait, I’ve seen this movie.
Alex, give me “How every midwit in the universe feels for $300”.
They are, but they need adequate education rather than evil indoctrination. They need social media without misinformation algorithms that prey on their tribal instincts. They need proper guidance and love as children to develop healthy coping skills. They need to be kept away from dark triad people.
