What Did You Get Out of Voting For Trump?

I keep hearing about Trump voters realizing that they will be losing their meals on wheels, Medicare coverage, preexisting condition coverage, housing subsidies, CHIP cuts, no new job markets through new technology, no new job contracts through investment in civil infrastructure construction, college grants are being slashed, and the average American will likely face tax hikes, all to help pay for the tax breaks being given to billionaires.

Billionaires are making out like bandits, with our tax dollars.

I'm just wandering, at the end of the day, what will the average Trump voter have gained?

You do realize you've believed your own party's propaganda, right?

Time is a beautiful thing. If I'm wrong, everything will be okay. If it happens, it can't be denied.

But seriously, what will hardworking Trump voters get from Trump?

Where is it found in the constitution for the Federal Government to fund Meals On Wheels? Furthermore, you still don't understand that conservatives are not looking for things from government as you are. So your question really has no relevance.

The Constitution doesn't demand the Fed fund meals on wheels. But it doesn't prohibit it from doing so either.

I know a lot of conservatives on Social Security, Medicare, WIC, kids covered by SCHIP, on unemployment, etc. Implying that conservative voters don't want anything, while they also file for benefits is a bit ridiculous.

Some of the biggest complaints are coming from Trump voters who are poor and on programs standing to be cut.
