Really curious what Trump supporters feel about our current economy that Trump has destroyed.

So what I’m seeing so far from the Trump presidency is an attack on the following: LGBQT+ community, libraries/museums, national parks, Medicare and Medicaid, and our public education system. Oh not to mention we alienated our allies and became Russia’s bitch. So how are these positive things?

If Republicans cut $880 billion from Medicaid:
- Millions of children will lose their health care.
- Funding for community health centers will dry up.
- Your mom and dad may not be able to get the nursing home care they need.
That's what happens when Musk runs the government.

Worried. Worried about our future. Worried about LGBQT+ rights, worried about racism, worried about women’s rights. How is this 2025 in America?

The CDC purged terms such as “transgender,” “L.G.B.T.” and “pregnant person,” from its website to comply with an executive order. Intense backlash prompted the reinstatement of some resources. But guidelines for safe contraception and information on racial inequities in health care remain missing.

Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.
Let's steal those ideas.

Since Monday I have honestly been in shut down mode. I haven’t been able to handle thinking about what is currently happening to our country and so many rights. I am normally very involved and up to date but this is just devastating. Is anyone else feeling down or avoiding the situation?

Elon Musk is likely to be given office space in the West Wing, giving him close proximity to President Trump as the world’s richest man steers a project that aims to cut as much as $2 trillion in government spending, two people with knowledge of the planning said.
