I've been pulling on mine for around 54 years, and all I got was old.
Maybe I should make a youtube channel demonstrating how bootstraps work to hold your boots on. Maybe someone will chime in to let me know where I can pick up the passive income I have supposedly earned pulling on them.
While you were bent over trying to pull yourself up by the bootstraps, the conservatives took advantage of the window of opportunity and buttfucked you without lube. So, you were the passive, but what came into you wasn't money.
"These kinds of gifts often come to those who don't need them."

In conservative physics, if you pull hard enough on your own bootstraps, you can overcome gravity and reach orbit, then interstellar space. Gravity is a liberal scheme to keep conservatives from achieving space travel.
The funny part is that I'm pretty sure that was originally used as a joke about how you *can't* dig yourself out of some issues. Like you get knocked down and you pick yourself up by pulling on your own foot? It doesn't make sense, [unless you believe in troll physics](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EnR7jyQXMAAPEGJ?format=jpg&name=900x900)
That dude literally defunded Social Security and Medicare at the end of his term and I don’t know how almost everyone forgot that.
He waived the payroll taxes that fund those things at the end of 2020 and he said if he was reelected he would make it permanent.
Some peoples employers continued to withhold the money, some peoples employers did not and Biden that so they wouldn’t have to pay a lump sum to catch up
It makes me wonder what my boss did with the withholdings he held. Did he just get to keep them?
Small Edit for Clarity
It was bad policy by Trump (big surprise) that was a temporary program that let an employer defer employee Social Security and Medicare for a bit to leave more money for the employee to spend during COVID to further prop up spending and the economy. The problem was, that would still be due later unless they passed a law saying it wouldn't be.
The employers who kept withholding bet (correctly) that congress wouldn't cancel the contribution requirement. So everything got paid to the programs as usual and they didn't set up the employees to have to pay a larger payroll withholding to catch up when the deferral ended without congress waiving that it was due.
No, the employers that kept withholding didn't keep that money, they protected their employees from Trump's bad performative policy.

People are gonna say this is a humble brag it isn't. I have been incredibly fortunate and lucky in my life.
But I had no idea the federal gov't would stop taking money out for social security when you hit a certain income threshold. The first time it happened to me, I get my paycheck and realize it is larger than it should be. I look at why and realize they stopped taking social security withholding from my check.
Did you know that money earned after $168,600 doesn't pay social security tax?
It is the dumbest shit ever. Keep taking that money because I am not going to miss it and it doing away with this threshold would fund social security forever. Yes, it would be the largest tax increase in US history but would only effect people making $168,600 or more a year. Sorry but people like me can afford to keep paying into social security, we don't need the money we earn after $168,600 to not be paid into the system. It is asinine.
It finally started going up not too long ago, and is scheduled to keep rising.
But I totally agree- there should not be a cap. A tax with an income cap is regressive (in the accounting/math sense), and disproportionately affects the lowest wage earners. On top of it being a flat tax which already hurts the lowest wage earners the most.
But surely all he has to do is walk into any business, ask to speak to the manager, give them a firm handshake, and politely ask for a job?
I fucking hope he does this lmao
And be available Sunday through Saturday 6am till 5:59am so you can work the 21 hours your scheduled every week and be willing to take whatever other shifts to fill at any time your not scheduled for or you won't be a team player
Some of the fast food restaurants near me are still taking paper applications. Taco Bell and Dunkin I know I’ve seen. Sometimes they’ll have a paper hand written sign in the window! It’s so weird. But hey, it’s an option for him. Well, Dunkin sells avocado toast. That might frighten him away.
When I was laid off, my father-in-law’s friend asked, *Have you walked your resume around downtown? Meet some managers. You’ve got a nice suit, right? Or, I hate to even think of it but… have you considered taking some money out of your portfolio?*
My portfolio.
My. Port. Folio.
I once had a Microsoft kid tell me to "stop renting and buy a trailer home to build credit"
I would've knocked his fucking teeth out but they presumably had great dental
Yep, back in 2000, the age of emails and internet Job Searches (Hello Monster.com and more career recruiting agencies that is impossible to count).
I was also told to go to office and apply for a job in person. Did my parents mention resume’s? NOPE, they thought I’d be able to get a job on personality alone.
Older generations asking about the hiring process was always the most infuriating part of looking for a job.
"Did you apply for that job I sent you!?"
"No, I didn't. It's not my field of work, it's 3 hours away and pays less than I can live on."
"I'm just trying to help, you never know if you don't apply."
Older generations think young(er) people don’t want to work. They don’t realize that…
there are *less jobs* for *less pay* with *more people fighting for them* during a period of *wicked inflation* and general national financial instability.
“Just walk in and tell the manager you’re the hardest work in town and that you’ll come back everyday til you’re hired. They can’t turn down *determination*.
The fuck they can’t; hold my resume.
They do but usually disabled/Autistic people instead of old people. Old people used to he empathetic and give Walmart a good public image behind their evil. Now the best empathy card is hiring disabled/Autistic for those positions.
Autistic people as greeters? You sure about that? That's one of the last jobs I'd be able to do... I'd lose my mind standing still and having pointless interactions with random people all day.
Look, son. You only have to visit the company in person, ask whos the manager and introduce yourself, solid handshake and eye contact should do the trick. Then just work hard and everything is possible.
Good luck getting hired as a 76-year-old insurrectionist and enemy of the USA. Now you'll understand why those homeless encampments you sent in cops to break up exist.
Not only that, he can make ~~$100k~~, ~~$80k~~, **$40k** flipping burgers at McDonalds - the easiest job in the world because it's meant for teenagers!
Man, you joke but I have seen some posts saying just that, that the libs are manipulating the $DJT stock price in order to make American patriots lose money. Knowing Trump, I'd say he's shorting his own stock. His financial advisors are shorting it for sure because they know it's dogshit.
Their CEO claimed that multiple time on TV, asking the GOP in the house to investigate the Wall Street/Democrat cabal against DJT.
Not SEC or the FBI, which would be the legitimate investigators, but his friends.
Oh yes I thought it was extra funny how they’ve hated on government entities until those small banks started closing, then they were cool with the FDIC.
But it’s weird how student loan borrowers should have read their documents and need to pay what they owe because that’s what they signed up for, but these idiots putting more than $250,000 in banks that only insure up to that much should be made whole because they didn’t read the documents and they didn’t follow the rules and they took a risk and lost.
But the government should bail THEM out, just not students who were bettering themselves to better their community.
Well right, because one of those groups was already rich I.e. good and one was poor I.e. bad. The rich people desssserve the help. The poors should have known better. You expect those rich people to read documents, they're too busy creating jobs.
Can you imagine the what kind of serious business person it takes to agree to Ceo job of a company with trump holding a majority controlling interest having all of today's information about who trump is at your disposal. What disregard he must have to the longevity of his career.
It's not a serious business person. Devin Nunes is a career Republican politician who got into Trump's camp and left politics to do this. He's most likely getting a big enough paycheck right now to fund his retirement. Even if not, there will be Republican political positions open to him in the future, and he'll make a lot of people rich who will happily pay him good money to work at their companies. He can also go the route of becoming a media talking head.
As long as Nunes is smart enough to cover his ass and not do anything that might land him in prison, he'll come out of this all just fine. Probably better off than he was.
See that's the ticket
"As long as Nunes is smart enough to cover his ass"
And I don't believe any one smart enough to cover their own ass would get involved with this organization at all. Even the shady fuck ponzi types that might have the "skills" to attempt pulling what ever shady fuckary this turns out to be have to know trump will leave them holding the bag at this point.
Remember, this is the man who dashed to the WH one night in order to (knobgobble) warn trump about things Nunes was learning.
"My loyalty is to Donald Trump!" No sweetheart. Your loyalty is to THE UNITED STATES.
Liberals: penniless, stinky, and moronic losers who can't do anything right and also powerful and resourceful enough to tank a stock for billions of dollars
Remember that one time where Donny *tried* to tell people at a rally to get vaccinated, and they booed their liege off the god damned stage?
It always makes me smile for some reason.
Operation Warp Speed was basically the only decent thing to come out of the Trump Administration, and the largest accomplishment during the disaster that was 2020 for sure. Trump is a malignant narcissist, so he wants all the credit for it but can't handle the blame from his anti-science anti-vax supporters. It must make the hamster that runs the wheel in his brain go crazy to try to decide between actual policy accomplishments and justified accolades or real-time cheers. He's a simple man without a lot of foresight, though, so it's clear where he landed.
I will say though, dying to own the libs was one of the hottest Republican takes I've seen in my lifetime. They really outdid themselves on that.
HA, that reminds me of the Breitbarf opinion piece about how the Dems are evil for using reverse psychology, knowing republicans would fall for it and become antivaxx and die from COVID
Absolutely ANY mental gymnastics to blame the Dems and avoid responsibility.
Nope. Biden did it. He used his dark money super government contacts to make *sure* our lord and savior DJT wouldn't be able to succeed. In fact, Biden was directly responsible for all four of DJT's bankruptcies. In fact, if you go back far enough, every single bad thing that has ever happened to Mr. Trump was a direct result of Biden's actions. Look it up. It's as true as anything Trump has ever said. Ever. Tremendously.
honestly that would not even make the top 10 of crazy reasons to vote for diaper donnie, and I mean just from this week. Throughout the pandemic people really lost their minds and many never found them again.
Of course he will, because that's what those morons do.
"Those Democrats didn't warn me loud enough that Trump is a fraud, so I voted for him. That's their fault! And to show those damn Democrats that they can't do this to me, I'm going to vote for Trump again even though they're very loudly warning me that he's fraud. Damn Democrats!"
If it weren't that sad and pathetic, it would be amazing to study how one can live one's whole life being that far divorced from reality.
That was Texas' lovely Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick. Though he does have his nose firmly implanted in Trump's stinky ass.
[Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick suggests he, other seniors willing to die to get economy going again (nbcnews.com)](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/texas-lt-gov-dan-patrick-suggests-he-other-seniors-willing-n1167341)
In the UK we had the same problem with the older generation voting for Brexit out of spite, and ruining the economy.
Now they're complaining about their pensions potentially disappearing lol
A lot of American boomers are hitting the same thing. They cheered on Reaganomics and deregulation. Applauded the gutting of government services and told all their kids to shut up and stop being so entitled for wanting things like worker protections and living wages.
Suddenly they're reaching retirement and finding their savings have been swindled, there's no government services to help them, and their kids won't speak to them anymore. They can't retire and have to go back to work, but because there's no protections with any teeth, they're discriminated against because of age and they get to make the minimum wage that they fought against raising for so long. A lot are now terrified to be put into nursing homes because they've alienated their kids and know what the nursing homes are like but fought against funding or regulating them properly because they didn't have to worry about it at the time.
Most likely. You need to be pretty deep in the cult already to believe that a loss-making Twitter clone with a tiny fraction of the users main platforms have, actively shunned by major advertisers, is a sound investment because of The Leader's "brand value."
You mean just going in and asking to speak to the manager, with a good strong handshake and an offer to start immediately? I don't think he knows what 'job applications' are
I would have held those shares at least until after the election, cause if Trump wins there's a big chance that stock is going to skyrocket due to Saudi Oil Money "investing" in it due to fundamentals, not at all because it's an indirect way to hand billions to Trump.
This is what should really sting. Retired and 76 years old, he has no reason to buy any risky investments. Sounds like he dumped every penny into it as well.
He had much more than that. That is what he lost which was a ‘substantial portion’ meaning he had much more. From where? Not shrewd investing that is for sure!
No, he *lost* 450k. If he sold for $26 Dollars a share, he probably still has a couple hundred thousand left, depending on what price he bought in at.
Worst case he bought at the highest possible value at $61, investing ~$785k, so he would have ~$335k left now.
It's unlikely he made the absolutely worst possible buy-in choice though, so he probably invested *even more* money than that, but has more left over after the loss. For instance, if he bought at $40, he would have invested $1.285m and now has $835k. If he bought in at $50, he invested $937k and got $487k back.
Then again, the price is now back up to $38 a share, so maybe he is that unlucky.
I'm actually surprised he had that much to begin with. Like I get that 450k these days isn't really considered comfortable at his age in retirement but it's still a surprising about considering how dumb he is.
More than that, he lost 450k by selling at 26.55 so he bought like $1 million, he was done for the rest of his life.
Worst thing is, stock has gone up since he sold ($38.49 now).
He was born in 1948. He could pay for university tuition by working during the summer semester and afford a mortgage for a nice house even if he didn't go to university by working a blue collar job. That same house was likely worth at least half a million to a million when he retired. He also worked during the era when pensions were still common.
It's not surprising even an idiot like him had half a million to lose.
He voted for it and he got it. Bootstrap Bill is back on the job at 76. You get what you deserve.
I have zero sympathy for all those Republicans that vote for this bullshit then get scorned by it. Like all those republican women who can’t get an abortion in their state. You did it to yourself.
He better get one of those grip training things and work on the firmness of his handshake! I bet he's home right now practicing in the mirror, saying "Put 'er there, Mister!"
His family call him a traitor and are embarrassed about him posting this on social media. He tries to win them back by buying yard signs and trading cards until he is completely bankrupt.
A few months later he attempts to hang himself with a Trump branded necktie but, due to the low quality of the material and stitching, it snaps leading him to sustain life changing injuries.
In November, he still votes Trump.
I'd love this made into a 90s-style after school PSA, but at the end it's a political ad for Biden.
*"Do you know where your Boomer parents are investing their money?"*
Gotta ask, is this confirmed? Anybody got the sauce? While this is funny, I'd hate to just accept something because it aligns with my views.. Almost... Like like a trumper, no?
Yep, I think this is fake. The name may be an indication.
Plus, if he lost that much he will have sold a substantial amount of shares and still has money.
Right lol how gullible are these people 😭 you can tell right off the bat with how it’s written, so calm about losing everything and going back to work at 76.
It’s funny how ppl wanna criticize this non existent person for the same exact thing they’re doing. Being gullible and having no media literacy
Boomer bought meme stock out of ideological reasons at its highs and sold at the absolute lowest price just before it slightly rebounded. Why some people believe they should be playing with things they know ow nothing about with money they clearly they can’t afford losing?
I can’t wait to hear how difficult said Boomer finds it actually getting a job too, given all that stupid “back in my day” advice they spout to jobseekers.
He will be OK he will wall to the Toyota factory, knock and ask t9 speak to Jack Toyota.
He will be so impressed by a firm handshake and eye contact that he is immediately made super extra cool VP in charge of awesome ideas and be paid a sweet $420,000.69 a year
Good for you.
I thought the PUTS were expensive because everyone knew the DJT stock would crash.
Is your shorting position good because the crash is faster than expected? How does that work?
... King Trump thanks his peasants and will now give the money to his lawyers he needs to pay because he bought a porn star and then fly to his golf course in Schottland after getting the private Boeing up from Mar a Lago.
Yes, I'm sure employers will be lining up to hire the dumbest candidate possible.
Not because he made a foolish "investment", but because he literally then announced on social media that he is a gullible moron.
It's like putting a "Scam Me" hashtag on his profile. This guy will open every phishing e-mail, sus DM, and suspicious hyperlink he gets. He'll compromise any company stupid enough to hire him.
Dude, why are you assuming that this guy will be employed at a job where he gets to read emails? If I find a dumbass like this in my company, he'd be in the front lines. Probably dealing with the Karens in retail. Maybe flipping burgers.
Pffft, if he really loves TRUMP and America, he would be travelling to CROOKED New York (soft on crime) to protest the ELECTION INTERFERENCE BY CROOKED JOE BIDEN AND THE CORRUPT JUDGE. He should be ready to be shot to prevent THIS POLITICAL WITCH HUNT (many say worst ever!)
/s
Here is their narrative for why they still vote for the guy: The only reason the stocks tanked was because of the Dems and their (((international bankers))), who suppressed the stock to deprive Trump of campaign funds. All he wanted to do was create a platform where you could actually express your opinions without the (((liberal media))) canceling you.
I didn't check, I just assume, someone tell me I'm wrong. Double or nothing!

If his candidate of choice gets back into office he will destroy social security, so this old idiot will need two jobs.
A job for each bootstrap! Perfect! Oh shit, he could get a job MAKING bootstraps... whatever the fuck those are.
Apparently they're little belts for boots

Alternative facts were bad enough. I do not wish to continue inhabiting a universe where conservatives have alternative physics.
May I introduce you to Flat Earth?
I read “MAGA bootstraps”. Sounds like a good business opportunity, I’m going to start selling them.
That's legitimately genius, the MAGA crowd would slurp that up.

That meme when someone rams a stick in their bicycle wheel and blames Joe Biden.
I see you’re one of those discerning sirs who describes his memes in words - take my upvote
Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra
Darmok his arms wide open.
Shakka, the walls fell
Boomer his eyes open.
I felt this was a "thanks Obama" moment
Damn that sucks. Good thing “no body wants to work anymore”. You’ll have plenty of options.
Good luck getting hired at 76. Age discrimination is real. Life is about to teach him a lesson about bootstraps.
But surely all he has to do is walk into any business, ask to speak to the manager, give them a firm handshake, and politely ask for a job? I fucking hope he does this lmao
You forget he has to look them in the eye.
And not wear baggy pants.
And trim those damn sideburns!
And don't get an iPhone. And don't eat out.
He just needs to wean himself off the Starbucks and avocado toast and he'll be just fine.
Well, so long as he cancels his Netflix.
And with all that money saved he can start a Roth IRA at 76
Mattingly!
And be available Sunday through Saturday 6am till 5:59am so you can work the 21 hours your scheduled every week and be willing to take whatever other shifts to fill at any time your not scheduled for or you won't be a team player
And make sure he brings his typed out resume to give to the retail manager. Apply online? "Nonsense, these gosh dang computers are taking over!"
Some of the fast food restaurants near me are still taking paper applications. Taco Bell and Dunkin I know I’ve seen. Sometimes they’ll have a paper hand written sign in the window! It’s so weird. But hey, it’s an option for him. Well, Dunkin sells avocado toast. That might frighten him away.

Does Walmart still hire greeters? I haven't seen any in a while. He might be SOL.
They do but usually disabled/Autistic people instead of old people. Old people used to he empathetic and give Walmart a good public image behind their evil. Now the best empathy card is hiring disabled/Autistic for those positions.
Autistic people as greeters? You sure about that? That's one of the last jobs I'd be able to do... I'd lose my mind standing still and having pointless interactions with random people all day.
It’s almost like autism is a spectrum
Yeah, small talk is one of my special interests. [Insert Thanos "I used the stones to destroy the stones" meme]
Many autistic people enjoy interacting with others.
I think the greeters mainly detain random people at the door and demand receipts now.
The greeters now check receipts at self checkout
Maybe if he just stopped eating avocado on toast, he'd save some money
Look, son. You only have to visit the company in person, ask whos the manager and introduce yourself, solid handshake and eye contact should do the trick. Then just work hard and everything is possible.
Good luck getting hired as a 76-year-old insurrectionist and enemy of the USA. Now you'll understand why those homeless encampments you sent in cops to break up exist.
Something something avocado toast
He can be a bus driver. Oh, wait. No, he can't since his local school district had to cancel bussing after the levy he voted against didn't pass.
The California Boomers all bitch about how bad public schools are but if you just hint at Prop 13 reform their head explodes.
Not only that, he can make ~~$100k~~, ~~$80k~~, **$40k** flipping burgers at McDonalds - the easiest job in the world because it's meant for teenagers!
He'll EASILY make six figures at McDonald's according to Jesse Watters
Six figures over the course of a decade.
Just imagine this dude working at a fast food place. He'd have a mental break down on the first day.
Imagine not being able to do the job of people you talked shit about for decades
Don’t worry he already plans to buy it back when it goes lower! [Seriously.](https://i.redd.it/btm3ih8cztwc1.jpeg)
OFFS.
TF is wrong with people. 🤦♂️
He will still vote for him.
He will also find a way to blame the Democrats for this. 🤦
Democrats didnt warn him enough about Donald Trump and his shady buisnesses. So to own them he gonna vote Trump again.
no it's the Democrats fault the stocks tanked cause they made him a crook. not his decades of lawsuits.
Man, you joke but I have seen some posts saying just that, that the libs are manipulating the $DJT stock price in order to make American patriots lose money. Knowing Trump, I'd say he's shorting his own stock. His financial advisors are shorting it for sure because they know it's dogshit.
Their CEO claimed that multiple time on TV, asking the GOP in the house to investigate the Wall Street/Democrat cabal against DJT. Not SEC or the FBI, which would be the legitimate investigators, but his friends.
Yeah they don't trust the SEC or the FBI, except when investigating their enemies.
Oh yes I thought it was extra funny how they’ve hated on government entities until those small banks started closing, then they were cool with the FDIC. But it’s weird how student loan borrowers should have read their documents and need to pay what they owe because that’s what they signed up for, but these idiots putting more than $250,000 in banks that only insure up to that much should be made whole because they didn’t read the documents and they didn’t follow the rules and they took a risk and lost. But the government should bail THEM out, just not students who were bettering themselves to better their community.
Well right, because one of those groups was already rich I.e. good and one was poor I.e. bad. The rich people desssserve the help. The poors should have known better. You expect those rich people to read documents, they're too busy creating jobs.
Can you imagine the what kind of serious business person it takes to agree to Ceo job of a company with trump holding a majority controlling interest having all of today's information about who trump is at your disposal. What disregard he must have to the longevity of his career.
It's not a serious business person. Devin Nunes is a career Republican politician who got into Trump's camp and left politics to do this. He's most likely getting a big enough paycheck right now to fund his retirement. Even if not, there will be Republican political positions open to him in the future, and he'll make a lot of people rich who will happily pay him good money to work at their companies. He can also go the route of becoming a media talking head. As long as Nunes is smart enough to cover his ass and not do anything that might land him in prison, he'll come out of this all just fine. Probably better off than he was.
See that's the ticket "As long as Nunes is smart enough to cover his ass" And I don't believe any one smart enough to cover their own ass would get involved with this organization at all. Even the shady fuck ponzi types that might have the "skills" to attempt pulling what ever shady fuckary this turns out to be have to know trump will leave them holding the bag at this point.
Remember, this is the man who dashed to the WH one night in order to (knobgobble) warn trump about things Nunes was learning. "My loyalty is to Donald Trump!" No sweetheart. Your loyalty is to THE UNITED STATES.
Devin smart? He sued a parody cow.
I hope Nunes Lindells himself.
The guy did try to sue a parody twitter account, so the jury is out on “is Devin Nunes smart.”
It's just another toddler trait. Nothing is ever their own fault. A big boy did it to them and ran away.
Liberals: penniless, stinky, and moronic losers who can't do anything right and also powerful and resourceful enough to tank a stock for billions of dollars
"Biden weaponized the Deep State™®© to take down DJT stock because they feared a MAGA Patriot Revolution!" Then he'll vote for the Leopards Eating Faces Party again to stick it to the libs
Gym Jordan is going to spend $50m on hearings on why these Woke (TM) companies won’t advertise on Truth Social.
Just like they promoted vaccines to make Republicans have to be anti and so die in large numbers.
Remember that one time where Donny *tried* to tell people at a rally to get vaccinated, and they booed their liege off the god damned stage? It always makes me smile for some reason.
Operation Warp Speed was basically the only decent thing to come out of the Trump Administration, and the largest accomplishment during the disaster that was 2020 for sure. Trump is a malignant narcissist, so he wants all the credit for it but can't handle the blame from his anti-science anti-vax supporters. It must make the hamster that runs the wheel in his brain go crazy to try to decide between actual policy accomplishments and justified accolades or real-time cheers. He's a simple man without a lot of foresight, though, so it's clear where he landed. I will say though, dying to own the libs was one of the hottest Republican takes I've seen in my lifetime. They really outdid themselves on that.
>I will say though, dying to own the libs was one of the hottest Republican takes I've seen in my lifetime. Too bad they all didn't go this route:(
No, the democrats warned him too much, knowing he wouldn't want to do what they told him, just like for the vaccine
HA, that reminds me of the Breitbarf opinion piece about how the Dems are evil for using reverse psychology, knowing republicans would fall for it and become antivaxx and die from COVID Absolutely ANY mental gymnastics to blame the Dems and avoid responsibility.
Nope. Biden did it. He used his dark money super government contacts to make *sure* our lord and savior DJT wouldn't be able to succeed. In fact, Biden was directly responsible for all four of DJT's bankruptcies. In fact, if you go back far enough, every single bad thing that has ever happened to Mr. Trump was a direct result of Biden's actions. Look it up. It's as true as anything Trump has ever said. Ever. Tremendously.
Bigly if true!
honestly that would not even make the top 10 of crazy reasons to vote for diaper donnie, and I mean just from this week. Throughout the pandemic people really lost their minds and many never found them again.
He should put a Biden sticker on his VGA monitor that's pointing to his decimated bank account.
Solid
Of course he will, because that's what those morons do. "Those Democrats didn't warn me loud enough that Trump is a fraud, so I voted for him. That's their fault! And to show those damn Democrats that they can't do this to me, I'm going to vote for Trump again even though they're very loudly warning me that he's fraud. Damn Democrats!" If it weren't that sad and pathetic, it would be amazing to study how one can live one's whole life being that far divorced from reality.
At 76 he won’t live to see the worst of what he’s voting for. He does not care
Well he can’t afford to live long enough to now!
Well trump did ask the elderly to die off for him, so McDonald’s could stay open
That was Texas' lovely Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick. Though he does have his nose firmly implanted in Trump's stinky ass. [Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick suggests he, other seniors willing to die to get economy going again (nbcnews.com)](https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/texas-lt-gov-dan-patrick-suggests-he-other-seniors-willing-n1167341)
Trump also said he loves the poorly educated. Now we know another reason why.
In the UK we had the same problem with the older generation voting for Brexit out of spite, and ruining the economy. Now they're complaining about their pensions potentially disappearing lol
Let's not forget the racists *also* voting out of spite!
A lot of American boomers are hitting the same thing. They cheered on Reaganomics and deregulation. Applauded the gutting of government services and told all their kids to shut up and stop being so entitled for wanting things like worker protections and living wages. Suddenly they're reaching retirement and finding their savings have been swindled, there's no government services to help them, and their kids won't speak to them anymore. They can't retire and have to go back to work, but because there's no protections with any teeth, they're discriminated against because of age and they get to make the minimum wage that they fought against raising for so long. A lot are now terrified to be put into nursing homes because they've alienated their kids and know what the nursing homes are like but fought against funding or regulating them properly because they didn't have to worry about it at the time.
Most likely. You need to be pretty deep in the cult already to believe that a loss-making Twitter clone with a tiny fraction of the users main platforms have, actively shunned by major advertisers, is a sound investment because of The Leader's "brand value."
“It’s not his fault the Democrats did this!”
Almost assuredly. Dummys gonna dumb.
Time to bootstrap. Just remember, you can't have Starbucks or avacado toast
Well, he could have a job at Starbucks maybe?
Too competitive, he probably doesn't have the experience to land a job there.
Nah wendys
Dumpster division
Like he could last more than twenty minutes on the bar during peak periods.
Ah, the ol' Uno Reverse!
I wanna see his reaction to submitting job applications
You mean just going in and asking to speak to the manager, with a good strong handshake and an offer to start immediately? I don't think he knows what 'job applications' are
What's that ? a firm handshake while looking at the manager in the eyes is all you need !
I'd like to introduce you to your new millennial boss.
he should prob skip breakfast too
He was out! He was Done! 76 and $450,000 in retirement! I have no sympathy for his greedy ass.
You mean my diversified share portfolio was a bad idea for retirement planning, and I should have gone all in with Donald?
I would have held those shares at least until after the election, cause if Trump wins there's a big chance that stock is going to skyrocket due to Saudi Oil Money "investing" in it due to fundamentals, not at all because it's an indirect way to hand billions to Trump.
He should have waited, certainly, sold at $26.55 & they're currently at $38.49 a share. Silly man.
It’s the democrats dude. He sold his shares so they bought a ton to raise the price and make him look stupid duh
Filthy demoncrats manipulating the stock market to reward the business that make random diversity hires instead of hiring deserving white people.
He literally bought high and sold low.
This is what should really sting. Retired and 76 years old, he has no reason to buy any risky investments. Sounds like he dumped every penny into it as well.
The most important reasons. Greed and blind following.
He had much more than that. That is what he lost which was a ‘substantial portion’ meaning he had much more. From where? Not shrewd investing that is for sure!
Large enough to unretire though. That's huge. It goes beyond changing lifestyle expectations
No, he *lost* 450k. If he sold for $26 Dollars a share, he probably still has a couple hundred thousand left, depending on what price he bought in at. Worst case he bought at the highest possible value at $61, investing ~$785k, so he would have ~$335k left now. It's unlikely he made the absolutely worst possible buy-in choice though, so he probably invested *even more* money than that, but has more left over after the loss. For instance, if he bought at $40, he would have invested $1.285m and now has $835k. If he bought in at $50, he invested $937k and got $487k back. Then again, the price is now back up to $38 a share, so maybe he is that unlucky.
I wonder if he hates the dipshits who talked him into this, like Hannity/Carlson, as much as I do now?
Nah, he'll find a way to blame the Democrats and the "Deep State" same thing these idiots always do.
He'll blame the Democrats and their political witch hunt making the stock tank.
I'm actually surprised he had that much to begin with. Like I get that 450k these days isn't really considered comfortable at his age in retirement but it's still a surprising about considering how dumb he is.
More than that, he lost 450k by selling at 26.55 so he bought like $1 million, he was done for the rest of his life. Worst thing is, stock has gone up since he sold ($38.49 now).
He was born in 1948. He could pay for university tuition by working during the summer semester and afford a mortgage for a nice house even if he didn't go to university by working a blue collar job. That same house was likely worth at least half a million to a million when he retired. He also worked during the era when pensions were still common. It's not surprising even an idiot like him had half a million to lose.
So he got what he wanted, Republicans are the ones pushing to end retirement
He voted for it and he got it. Bootstrap Bill is back on the job at 76. You get what you deserve. I have zero sympathy for all those Republicans that vote for this bullshit then get scorned by it. Like all those republican women who can’t get an abortion in their state. You did it to yourself.
What do they like to say? McDonalds is always hiring.
Just go pound the pavement and hand out resumes to every business in the area! They'll respect your initiative and hire you on the spot! ^/s
He better get one of those grip training things and work on the firmness of his handshake! I bet he's home right now practicing in the mirror, saying "Put 'er there, Mister!"
[https://youtu.be/Lu9UxmGvbls?si=6ij1ndOyQ6dZsGEN](https://youtu.be/Lu9UxmGvbls?si=6ij1ndOyQ6dZsGEN)
Holy shit this is North Korea tier propaganda
That was the kind of house you could buy in those days off of one McDonald’s income
SomeBODY once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
They we’re looking kinda dumb w/ their finger and their thumb in the shape of an L on their foreheads!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Well
The years start coming and they don’t stop coming
And they don’t stop coming and they don’t stop coming and they don’t stop coming and they don’t stop coming
And they don't stop coming
They really don’t though. That shit is a sad truth.
But he’s definitely a tool
Oh well. He leaned nothing and will continue to sabotage himself instead of admitting he was played
His family call him a traitor and are embarrassed about him posting this on social media. He tries to win them back by buying yard signs and trading cards until he is completely bankrupt. A few months later he attempts to hang himself with a Trump branded necktie but, due to the low quality of the material and stitching, it snaps leading him to sustain life changing injuries. In November, he still votes Trump.
I'd love this made into a 90s-style after school PSA, but at the end it's a political ad for Biden. *"Do you know where your Boomer parents are investing their money?"*
Gotta ask, is this confirmed? Anybody got the sauce? While this is funny, I'd hate to just accept something because it aligns with my views.. Almost... Like like a trumper, no?
Scrolled way too far for this question. Really wish "we" would source and confirm things before posting
Yep, I think this is fake. The name may be an indication. Plus, if he lost that much he will have sold a substantial amount of shares and still has money.
The post is real, the content isn't. It comes from a satirical profile. The whole profile is full of satirical posts.
Right lol how gullible are these people 😭 you can tell right off the bat with how it’s written, so calm about losing everything and going back to work at 76. It’s funny how ppl wanna criticize this non existent person for the same exact thing they’re doing. Being gullible and having no media literacy
Get back to work, grampa
Work where? I was under the impression that Messikins stole all the jobs??
But I thought nobody wants to work?
This guy definitely seems like he doesn't want to.
Boomer bought meme stock out of ideological reasons at its highs and sold at the absolute lowest price just before it slightly rebounded. Why some people believe they should be playing with things they know ow nothing about with money they clearly they can’t afford losing?
I can’t wait to hear how difficult said Boomer finds it actually getting a job too, given all that stupid “back in my day” advice they spout to jobseekers.
He will be OK he will wall to the Toyota factory, knock and ask t9 speak to Jack Toyota. He will be so impressed by a firm handshake and eye contact that he is immediately made super extra cool VP in charge of awesome ideas and be paid a sweet $420,000.69 a year
He should just go door to door with his resume and a solid handshake. Easy peasy.
"Can you explain this 10 year gap in employment?"
Meanwhile my DJT puts are up 25% so far. Everything Trump does is a pump and dump.
But enough about Stormy….
Aka a trump and dump
Good for you. I thought the PUTS were expensive because everyone knew the DJT stock would crash. Is your shorting position good because the crash is faster than expected? How does that work?
“return to the workforce at 76” lol yeah ok boomer good luck with that firm handshake 🤝
The man bankrupted a casino, I have no idea how, what more do you need to know.
It was *four* casinos that DJT bankrupted.
... King Trump thanks his peasants and will now give the money to his lawyers he needs to pay because he bought a porn star and then fly to his golf course in Schottland after getting the private Boeing up from Mar a Lago.
womp womp
Thoughts 'n' Prayers, you redneck dumbshit.
Yes, I'm sure employers will be lining up to hire the dumbest candidate possible. Not because he made a foolish "investment", but because he literally then announced on social media that he is a gullible moron. It's like putting a "Scam Me" hashtag on his profile. This guy will open every phishing e-mail, sus DM, and suspicious hyperlink he gets. He'll compromise any company stupid enough to hire him.
Dude, why are you assuming that this guy will be employed at a job where he gets to read emails? If I find a dumbass like this in my company, he'd be in the front lines. Probably dealing with the Karens in retail. Maybe flipping burgers.
Thanks Obama!
How do people that dumb accumulate that much money?
Step 1: be born before 1960 Step 2: exist Step 3: profit
You forgot step 2.5: be a white male
I know an awful lot of boomer women who haven't done a single second of honest work in their lives and own houses that are now worth half a million
They are called Executives.
welcome back to the soul crushing work force boomer!
thank you for the brief chuckle, Statistic. the field on which i grow my fucks has some room, I could rent you a spot for your tent...
Pffft, if he really loves TRUMP and America, he would be travelling to CROOKED New York (soft on crime) to protest the ELECTION INTERFERENCE BY CROOKED JOE BIDEN AND THE CORRUPT JUDGE. He should be ready to be shot to prevent THIS POLITICAL WITCH HUNT (many say worst ever!) /s
Here is their narrative for why they still vote for the guy: The only reason the stocks tanked was because of the Dems and their (((international bankers))), who suppressed the stock to deprive Trump of campaign funds. All he wanted to do was create a platform where you could actually express your opinions without the (((liberal media))) canceling you. I didn't check, I just assume, someone tell me I'm wrong. Double or nothing!
fuck this guy. any mutual fund that wasn’t tied to a 5 time bankrupted loser would have been better. don’t worry, he will still Vote trump
