Philly IRS Worker Regrets Voting For Trump After Being Laid Off: ‘I Loved Doing That Job’

Jay Smith, was an IRS worker from Philadelphia, but recently found himself among the thousands laid off in the Trump administration’s latest cost-cutting crusade. This Philly IRS employee regrets voting for Trump, and was found wishing he would have opted for Kamala Harris in a recent Reddit post.

In a video pulled from from the post, Smith tells a reporter, “I loved doing that job,” while reflecting on getting exactly what he voted for. 

Smith’s abrupt end as an IRS worker is a masterclass in the lore that invented the phrase, “a leopard eating your face.”  It’s the classic example of supporting policies that, in theory, should target “other people,” only to realize you’re not as exempt as you thought. Like cheering for the villain in a movie, only to find out you’re the next victim in the sequel.

It doesn’t doesn’t stop there. Smith’s lack of understanding in how he voted against his own best interest was quickly repurposed by the Democratic congress.

In a move that only furthers the exploitation of the American working class and its vulnerability to placated politics, Democratic congress members came up with a plan. They decided to take unemployed constituents like Smith and march them out in front of Republicans during Trump’s recent Congressional address. Essentially, making people who have been rendered jobless by the U.S. government do their jobs as members of congress for them. For free.

Comments from the Reddit post are, as expected, a mix of pithy and political:

“The leopards were not supposed to eat MY face. I personally wanted the leopards to eat the faces of other people, you know which ones.”

“An IRS employee voting for Trump is akin to a fire department run by arsonists”.

“He told you he was going to do this. He told you TO YOUR FACE. I have not one ounce of sympathy for his voters, third party voters, and people who could have voted but didn’t.”

In the end, Smith’s story serves as a cautionary tale about the unpredictable nature of political decisions and their personal repercussions. It’s a reminder that policies aimed at “draining the swamp” can sometimes leave you high and dry.
