Well, when the term "gloating" was brought up, I thought it was in celebration of upcoming American prosperity. Well that didn't happen. The economy is pretty bad now. Trump promises to kick people to the kerb, and he paid a guy to swing a prop chainsaw showing how he's destroying families and their livelihoods. Cutting jobs is one thing, and may be necessary, but then laughing and mocking the families is taking it to a whole new level. Who's gloating? No one is hiring. Anyone losing their jobs from the chainsaw will have a tough time finding a new job now. Maybe it's their fault for not updating their skills. But making fun of them? Do they deserve that? The economy is about to get way worse. There's nothing to be gloating about now. A lot of us are wise and can lecture about silencing others, but those who do that are probably well-versed about arrogance and pride. It's the central theme in nearly all Shakespeare's plays. Help me understand why we should laugh at those who are going home to tell their families they lost their jobs?
