Conservative / fascist leaders deserve it, the rest of us do not. The kids who were too young to vote, the leftists who fight against fascism, and the workers who don't have the time to follow politics do not deserve any of what is to come.
Young voters voted for Trump. Tons of kids support him: https://www.axios.com/2024/11/07/young-men-voters-trump-2024-exit-polls
Unionized workers had grassroots support for Trump: https://www.axios.com/2024/09/18/teamsters-endorsement-harris-trump-2024
Staunch democrats sat out, or protest voted: https://www.axios.com/local/detroit/2024/11/07/why-biden-outperformed-harris-throughout-metro-detroit

Lard ass promised to "make coal mining great again".
They got nothing, which was to be expected.
Biden, as much as I find faults with him, actually did come through big for unions and the unions members, I'm sorry but they're not the brightest here and we're failed by their union leadership and by Democrats to get it through their thick skulls that Democrats actually did a shit ton for them and had their backs.
"Yeah, but liberal Hollywood offended me with their wokeness". Or, "Yeah, but the smartypants college grads talked down to me"
