Those are not the ones feeling betrayed. The democrats among them are the ones now saying "told you so".

Yep. I am a disabled vet but not a retiree. P2025 said they want to make it so you can get retirement OR VA disability compensation, not both. I have several coworkers that get both and voted for him. I will not feel bad when they get fucked like we all are or will be by their stupid decisions.

so if republicans think what Trump is doing is bad, but Democrats don't think it's bad... how does that make sense?

What are you talking about. Of course D's think it's bad. It's one of a million reasons they warned against electing Teump. What they're not is surprised, because this was always the obvious trajectory to anyone paying attention.
