Seven quick wins Trump voters demand in his next first 100 days
Whether we like it or not

How can President-elect Donald Trump best please his voters as he comes out of the gate like no president ever?
Apparently, based on his campaign promises, a majority of American voters prioritize these seven agenda items:
1. More poor immigrant suffering
Trump voters want to see armed government agents drag nonwhite families from their homes if they lack the right government papers as their children scream in fear.
Even though many Trump voters are psychotically paranoid of armed government agents, hate government papers, and fight to protect children from books and not being born.
2. More happy billionaires
Even if Trump needs to put America more in deficit and debt with lucrative tax breaks for people who don’t need more money because the MAGA poor still swallow the old trickle-down economics swindle. And think PhD economists are stupid when they point out that Trump’s 2017 tax breaks eventually fueled inflation to blame on Biden.
3. More hate for fellow Americans
As the Scottish say, feck ’em. Feck peace, love and understanding. Feck respecting people who are different. Feck people who are marginalized. Feck people who are suffering. Feck anyone who loathes not loves Trump. Feck ’em all.
4. Less knowledge
America demands immediate curbs on schools, libraries, colleges and independent, professional, objective journalism that fails to bow to uneducated MAGA dictats.
America agreed that knowledge makes us stupid. It’s more relaxing to accept whatever nonsense the Trump media feeds. Informed critical thinking to question state propaganda and challenge authority is too hard.
5. Less democracy
Americans are proudly self-governing, even though we vote far less than most democracies. But doing democracy has gotten too exhausting. And we hate the politicians we elect. Besides, national politics has become ridiculous reality TV, now led by a reality TV actor, meant to feed rage addiction. Why bother paying attention or being involved?
6. More nihilism
The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy definition of nihilism literally describes the Trump American spirit, motivated by “the belief that all values are baseless and that nothing can be known or communicated. It is often associated with extreme pessimism and a radical skepticism that condemns existence. A true nihilist would believe in nothing, have no loyalties, and no purpose other than, perhaps, an impulse to destroy.”
7. More revenge and retribution
Nothing would please America more than Trump’s Justice Department planting a few severed heads on stakes for having the outrageous audacity to hold him accountable to the Constitution and the rule of law for his litany of high crimes, misdemeanors, felonies, corrupt acts and rape (sorry, “sexual abuse”).
America thinks Liz Cheney, Jack Smith, Rep. Adam Schiff, the House January 6 Committee, prosecutors, judges, honest election officials, Democrats and countless others on Trump’s political enemies list deserve whatever they get for justice-involving our triumphant Dear Leader.
America: as the old saying goes, beware of what you wish for.
