I don't see the problem. They get what they voted for. They willingly made that decision.

Republican voters don't give a fuck about anybody but themselves.
They LOVE Trump's immigrant-hatred precisely until the lack of cheap labor threatens their wallet.
They LOVE Trump's cuts to social programs as long as the cuts ruin other peoples' lives.

Why are we supposed to feel bad for them????????
