About this "GM THING"...
I recall in 1980 the late "great" Ronnie Reagan took a trip to Pittsburgh, donned a hardhat and went to the steel mills which, at that time, were churning out vast amounts of steel products for America and much of the world.
Standing there in his workshirt and hardhat, he joked around with the workers and told stories of "Welfare Queens driving Cadillacs" and the like. Patted these workers on the back, got back in his limo and took off.
They all thought he was a great guy and voted for him. Reagan's trade policies essentially caused the near-shuttering of American steel production and most of these huge, bustling plants went silent after decades of literally non-stop, 24 hour a day production.
But but but...Welfare Queens!!!
But but but...Hillary's emails!!!
But but but...Border Wall!!!
But but but...no fucking jobs at the plant. I hope each of those dumbasses who voted for Trump sobs on his or her way to the Unemployment Office to register for the benefits...or as the Trump/McConnellistas would call them: the "entitlements which need to be cut back".
I do feel bad for those who voted with the Democrats who now, unfortunately, get to say, "Toldja so!" to the dopes.
