It's kind of annoying that 51 people lost their jobs to tariffs and they only write an article about the rich guy at the top of the family empire. But I'm sure that the 50 other families' quests for food and shelter and medicine were pretty boring compared with the breakage of the boss's money-generating machine he inherited.

Granted, he is the one who most deserves the leopardsatemyface recognition.

Bow down before the one you serve, you're going to get what you deserve.

[–] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Wilson is a dumbshit and he will not learn from his mistake. Zero sympathy.

If your business needed undocumented labor to crawl back into the black, maybe your business acumen isn't as great as you think.

[–] Tedesche@lemmy.world 2 points 1 hour ago

Bah-hah-fucking-hah!

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 hours ago

Well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of my own actions!

[–] zebidiah@lemmy.ca 18 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

And he'll vote Republican again in 26 and 28

[–] Blum0108@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

At least he's old and will age out of voting soon!

[–] PseudoSpock@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 hours ago

Not soon enough for my liking.

[–] ProfThadBach@lemmy.world 29 points 3 hours ago

As a fellow North Carolinian I say fuck him. He got what he voted for.

[–] unabart@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 hour ago

It’s funny because he lost everything and is in financial ruins.

Be nice to this guy. He voted for racism, not to be poor. /s

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 1 points 47 minutes ago

If we make fun he'll never change! /s

Even after losing his business to Trump’s policies, he stands by his vote: “Given the two people running, regardless of what they said on the campaign trail, I would’ve voted for President Trump again.”

His brother Stephen agrees: “I don’t think I had a choice to vote any other direction.”>

This got me. I would put money on that he would vote for Trump again.

[–] frazw@lemmy.world 102 points 6 hours ago (9 children)

Yeah the logic always stuns me.

"If I vote for a Democrat they'll probably take some of my money through taxes and I'll be poor"

Trump wins and ruins their business, they lose all of their money.

"At least I'm not poor because of evil Democrat taxes"

They have truly been brainwashed. Whatever bad shit republicans do they still believe the Democrats must be worse, because the republicans told them so. Even though the republicans have provably been lying to them for years.

He would have voted for Trump again, even if HE KNEW his business would go under?! Wtf are these people thinking? That's some royal hate

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 4 points 1 hour ago

Republicans don't know how to think. All they know is what daddy tells them. lol

Idiots.

[–] Goodeye8@piefed.social 14 points 4 hours ago

It's just good old brainwashing. They believe that voting for democrats will ruin their life so they vote for republicans and if republicans ruin their life then it's bad luck.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 16 points 6 hours ago

Yeah because they won't lose a lumber mill this time.

Right?!

Some beautiful day, they'll be able to record a video of it, so we can finally hear what they're playing!

[–] db2@lemmy.world 45 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Don't worry, your lumber mill will still be there, it will just be owned by someone else.

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 11 points 5 hours ago (3 children)

Nah. A lot of these mills don't open back up because it's not profitable enough to retrograde them to handle smaller and smaller trees that are harvested.

[–] marduk@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 4 hours ago

Usually a reopening also means inspections and addressing building and equipment safety concerns that could've been swept under the rug for decades

[–] faltryka@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Exactly, there was a huge covid boom for lumber mills and the market got saturated. Now all those small shops that opened during the boom can’t survive on the post Covid margins and are shutting down.

As much as Trump is a shitbag, this is probably more likely tied to changing mill economics post covid.

Sounds good.

The less money this freak and his family have, the less they can contribute to felons, rapists, insurrectionists, and pedophiles.

Hope it hurts.

Oh no! Not the day you voted for! Anything but that!

I'm not saying he deserves that, ofk he doesn't. But I'm not really good with multitasking. And I'm already too busy feeling like shit for all the poor people who didn't even had the chance to vote and was separated from their family, or lost it all, just because dumbass people like him belived that "they" were the problem. So, good luck.

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 5 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

Actually he’s exactly the kind of person that deserves it.

Every one of these jackals voting for this ass on the grounds of it making other people’s lives worse, does in fact deserve to have that turned back on them.

[–] pivot_root@lemmy.world 14 points 4 hours ago

I'm not saying he deserves that

You might not, but I sure will. In fact, I'll even translate a common idiom into terms he could understand:

"You cut with the saw you intentionally dulled."

[–] damnedfurry@lemmy.world 3 points 2 hours ago

What a strange thing it is to imply that you can only feel bad for a finite number of people.
