The first veto of the president’s second term killed legislation that would have brought clean water to some of the most conservative parts of the state. Residents wonder why.

Probably because he wasn’t bribed to grant the project. Oh well, the tRump voters can die of thirst in that conservative area of Colorado. It’s what they wanted by voting for it, and nothing of value will be lost.

    “I can’t believe he would do that to us,” said Shirley Adams, the Republican mayor

    Oh, god, stop, please. My sides are hurting, Shirley.

    “I don’t understand why” he killed the bill, she said, but “I guarantee you he’s done it for a reason.”

    Yeah, the reason is: You are idiots that will vote for him and his stooges again anyway.

      They think he’s god. They both work in mysterious ways.

      Really they are both cruel imaginary strong men, that fools worship to be part of a group and feel loved.

      Most of them have dad-shaped holes in their hearts. I wish I knew a healthy way to help them fill this.

    Hey now, they voted to own the Libs, and this is a sacrifice they need to make to own the Libs.

    You hear that? It’s the Libs being owned while Trump emails donation requests to people that voted for him and whom he just left without water. They’re certainly not laughing and posting this in a comm about leopards eating…oh…wait.

    “She said she voted for Mr. Trump and still supported him, but felt stung by the veto.”. Sounds like they are having the day that they voted for.
