How is it a "self-own" to be double-crossed by someone else?

For one, because he should have known all along. When I support a candidate, I will generally study a candidate’s declared platform…especially as it pertains to me and the future of my job.

Secondly, if you DID take him at his word, why? He’s always shown himself to be a liar.

That’s why you don’t throw your support behind people like that. This is a leopards ate my face situation. Open and shut case closed.

Okay, so you don't know what LAMF is either, lol. LAMF is only when you explicitly support a thing happening, under the assumption that it will happen only to others or only to a certain demographic that does not include you, and then it also happens to you.

In this situation the thing happening isn't even a thing that CAN happen only to some people and not others. Literally cannot be LAMF.

Tired of people ignorantly applying random labels to things. People like you are why there are no "hol up" jokes in r/holup anymore, it's just r/funny #46.

Open and shut case closed.

You're as confident as you are wrong, congrats.
