And as you'd expect, with their hospital closing, they remain loyal to Trump, refusing to believe that the funding cuts had anything to do with the closure. That everyone is just picking on Trump and using him as a convenient excuse.

It's a cult.

    The cost is borne by us,” [Sharon Jorgensen, 73] declared. “To us, it’s health, not politics.”

    Yeah, us leftists have been saying Free Universal Healthcare for years, but you keep politicizing your own health. Now try to solve your health without begging to feds.

    If that is the case, 99% of the links posted in this comm should be removed. We keep seeing people negatively effected by their own choices, voting against their self interests, and yet doubling down. Regretful MAGAs are exceedingly rare.

    I think we need to come to some consensus on what we're doing here. Are we a community of hope, looking for evidence of changing hearts and minds? Or are we community of people bitterly laughing at the self-inflicted misfortune of racist, homophobic, xenophobic, pro-fascist creeps, knowing there's no hope left for American democracy?

    You have described torture.
    The same torture Nebraskans committed on immigrants who laboured their farms.
    The same immigrants being death encamped.
