"The U.S. #DepartmentOfVeteransAffairs, as of Thursday, has ended a new #mortgage-rescue program that so far has helped about 20,000 veterans avoid #foreclosure and keep their homes.
The move leaves millions of military #veterans with far worse options than most other American homeowners if they run into trouble paying their home loans. And it comes at a time when nearly 90,000 #VA loans are seriously past due, with 33,000 of those already in the foreclosure process, according to the data and analytics firm ICE."
I struggle to give a single fuck about this predicament that Veterans by and large brought upon themselves.
No.
Not all of them voted for Trump, and even if they did, they’re clearly not mentally well and need to be helped.
Whenever anyone disavows Trump and Republicans, we need to embrace them so they stop working against us making things harder.
Plus, turned Republicans are helpful in turning others like themselves over even if just by sheer example.
We must build community, not tear it apart.
Oh please, spare me the kumbya bullshit with Republicans and veterans.
There’s no community to be built here. They’ve proven they will vote the Hard R after getting fucked over hard the first time and they get to have the day they voted for this election just like the rest of us has to have the day they voted for.
Go fuck yourself. You display the exact same lack of empathy as the current administration and the same bigoted ignorance as it’s supporters. Veterans are absolutely not a conservative voting monolith, and you’re effectively condemning an entire class of people based on your stereotype
Oh boo hoo! Won’t somebody think of the idiots who are suffering from the consequences of their own actions? 61% of veterans voted for trump again after the first time they got fucked over by Trump, nope, have the day you voted for.
And I didn’t condemn an entire class of people, the Neo-Nazis they voted into office did so take your “go fuck yourself” and tell it to the people who actually condemned this group that you care so much about that voted against their own interests, again.
