Hit the fuckers in the wallet, then see how proudly they wear that stupid red hat.

If they want to vote for someone who puts kids in cages they need to pay the price.

We can get our food/goods from non-Trumper businesses and farms in blue states, or from Canada and Mexico.

It's the blue states that have high populations and purchasing power, yet we have far less representation or control of the direction of the country. It's absurd that diverse 'mini-nations' like California, New York and even Texas (to be fair) have the same two senators as tiny shithole states. And the founders could never have envisioned what important national role senators (or the Supreme Court, which The Senate confirms) would have.
