What does it mean and whats the context? Actually curious as an ignorant non spanish speaking EU person.
In English, it's more or less telling people to "enjoy what you (all) voted for".
ah yes, the illusion of my vote mattering in my state, topped with an icing of illusion of the candidates undemocratically selected by my party representing my views in any way whatsoever. But I'm told it was on me to get off my couch and go vote for one genocider or one that was very likely a genocider, but also a complete fascist nutter. Both choices have broken laws that should have put them behind bars for the rest of their lives.
Really, this is all my fault. Why am I so terrible?
There are a lot of things to be said about Trump, but we've actually had positive headlines regarding genocide heading into his presidency, and it's no coincidence that the ceasefire in Gaza will go into effect when he takes office. Genocide Joe is just going to stack corpses until they wheel him out of the White House.
I don't say this pretending that there isn't likely some profit in it for Trump, because we saw in his first term that every decision he makes profits him financially in some way, but grift is better than more dead civilians.
I'd like to argue with that, but you are factually correct.
