Let's make fun of Trump, bash him, etc. while we can!

Some Americans endure food insecurity, but such reflects the extreme disparity of economic result in America as the result of economic choices of our right-wingers.  Let us remember that the GIs saw a government uniformly sympathetic to their economic interests  while Millennial adults saw such only for a couple of years in 2009 and 2010. The economic elites who believe that the common man has a duty to compete to show who can suffer most for those elites in a contest to decide who deserves survival have had continuing influence in American political life through the 4T. Their dream is of German productivity on African wages. Those elites believe in a managed economy with themselves as the managers deciding who wins and who fails. I have heard such called 'socialism for the rich'.
But here is how you could benefit from America becoming more 'blue' in its politics: you are in the Twin Cities area, where air conditioning isn't quite a necessity as it is in Kansas City. Air conditioning is not quite a necessity for housing in places like Grand Rapids or Lansing -- yet. It can make life more pleasant, at least on those sultry days of midsummer when the temperature and humidity both soar.   If income is more evenly distributed, more people would get air conditioning, and you would have more business.
Did I make your choices or any decisions for you during your life? I'm not your parent. I'm not your boss. I'm not a fellow coworker or a friend or even a casual acquaintance. I'm a reddish poster here who has little interest in you and that's it. I suppose you could blame me or the Republicans for your personal problems or personal woes if you think it helps or gains sympathy or political support. I suppose you could claim to be able to identify with the bad feelings and the financial hardships experienced by American workers who lost their jobs because of a combination of multiple government related trade deals with Asian allies and neighboring countries and the passing of a bunch of new environmental laws and regulations that have taken place over the last fifty years and a bunch of cheap foreign goods entering the American market on a regular basis and so forth and demand that government fixes all the problems that it played a significant role in creating for decades. I keep pointing out that their are economic elites who have influence over your political elites but you seem unable to acknowledge them or seem to be oblivious of their presence and power of influence over your second rate politicians.
