Summary

Anthony Muro, a Marine veteran and former VA hospital worker, regrets voting for Trump after being fired amid sweeping government cuts led by Elon Musk.

Muro was one of 25,000 probationary (new) federal employees terminated, including 1,700 VA workers. Despite court orders deeming the firings unlawful, he remains on administrative leave.

Muro criticizes Trump’s efficiency drive as harmful to veterans, saying cuts damage morale and care quality.

Many VA staff and veterans fear reduced services and long-term impacts on healthcare. Muro hopes to continue helping veterans despite his uncertain future.

As a veteran, lol fuck that guy. Hope he gets exactly what he voted for.

The only way these assholes get a pass is if they over-correct.

They need to start campaigning for Democrats, lead the charge against fascism, make sure that they get all of their friends to change their minds too.

If all they are going to do is sit by and complain, well you are just getting what you voted for.
