“Most of us are Trump voters, and we still believe in a leader who builds. That’s why we’re asking President Trump to reverse the stop-work order issued to Revolution Wind by Interior,” Yerman told Canary Media.

. . .

Yerman and other commercial fishermen remained quiet the last time Trump’s assault on a wind farm put them out of work. This time they’re speaking out.

“It’s madness to stop a project that already had permits,” said Jack Morris, a Massachusetts-based scalloper and manager for Sea Services who voted for Trump. ​“This is not something any of us planned for: the captains, the crew, the shore engineers, the people we buy food from for our trips.”

"Wait, wait! Trump isn't supposed to hurt me, only the people I've been trained to hate!"

"Wait, wait! Trump isn't supposed to hurt me, only the people I've been trained to hate he made it okay to hate out loud!"

They got what they voted for. Play stupid games; win stupid prizes.

"It’s madness..."

So they get what they voted for... 🥱

He said he was going to do this. Like, did they vote for the racism (yes) and assume everything else was fluff? (Yes)

Everything trump is madness. They only care when it affects them. Why should I care about your pet issue when you’re happy to step on everyone else? Cry more.

“It’s like having the rug pulled out from under you. … Nobody understands why Trump did it. I don’t know what Trump’s agenda is,” said Morris.

Oh boy. It’s so funny.
