"Emmitsburg Mayor Frank Davis voted for Donald Trump in hopes he would cut federal spending. Now Davis hopes those cuts don't include the permanent cancellation of classes at the National Fire Academy, which is part of the town's identity and helps drive its economy. Davis is also a chief at Emmitsburg's firehouse, known as the Vigilant Hose Company."

Trump killed the Fema training academy. It's not coming back.

Religion is the biggest con job of all time, and those at the top are wealthy as fuck, most of the rubes believing that shit get nothing out of it except feeling like they picked the right one.

Humanity it seems has some ingrained switch to believe bullshit as long as you think "you're in the in crowd"

MAGA is no different, in fact there is a lot of overlap, because if you can believe a dude walked on water because some 1000x copied and altered book said so, you'll believe pretty much any bullshit modern scheisters will come up with.
