I’m curious, how many Trump supporters do you know outside of this forum?

It’s quite a charge to say Trump supporters think the guy can do no wrong. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone here unable to call the guy out on his bullshit.

I’m almost to the point where I don’t give a shit if he wins or not. I’m tired of the childish stuff. What keeps me going is when I see liberals do shit like post a picture of their 5 year old holding a sign that says “white privilege”, I’m afraid of the liberal agenda gaining more speed.

Trump winning or losing has more to do with what would happen otherwise than it does to do with the man himself.

But to my original question, I see/hear that said quite a lot, and it’s just not true of anyone I know, or know of. Outside of LT Fan.
well said

Well, this was an interesting back and forth to read. What I will say is, I do appreciate the fact that you guys could have a civil conversation without going at each other's throats. That's a minor miracle in today's political environment.

Who said Trump was a real Republican? Me? Wouldn't be putting words in people's mouths now, would you?

And as far as your embodiment of the Republican party stuff? ~flush~

I laughed at you mentioning Romney and McCain because when they were running for President, they too were shit on and lied about by the Democrat party, as if they were truly the devil, as claimed. But when it was all said and done, they rolled over and showed their belly, so were then accepted by the Dems.

Now tell me how more about how my brain is broken as a conservative.
And what does that have to do with their stances on Trump?

My in-laws, my grandfather, my mom.

It's quite interesting to me that you say you don't care whether or not he wins, that's definitely something I haven't seen in real life or online.

I have no idea who 'they' are that you are referring to. I'm only talking about myself. Since it was me you were talking to when you made the comments of Trump being the end all, be all of the Republican party, the embodiment, or what ever to what I said. It is only common sense that you were insinuating I was included in your stupid broken brain theory in regards to my laughing at Romney and McCain.

My girlfriends mom is a true (Trump) believer, she sends out the craziest shit via email that is conspiratorial, illogical, etc but we all just ignore it since she's approaching 80 and obviously isn't going to change.

Sadly, I think for some folks who embrace extremes, there's some kind of psychological comfort that assuages some deeper issue and I think this is true for whichever extreme one clings.

problem is the truth usually becomes a casualty in these instances

Romney and McCain were two RINO losers who delighted in stabbing their own party in the back. And now there's a rumor that George W., who did untold damage to the party, is gonna endorse Biden. Trump was our instrument of destruction.

They being McCain and Romney, I don't see what the way you describe Democrat characterizations of them have to do with their stances on Trump.

Do you think Trump is an extreme political person or is he maybe a very different person than the run of the mill politician? It’s my view that he cares less about politics and how the system works and takes the position that the office of the Chief Executive of the US should run the office like a business CEO.

This is one of the reasons why he is attacked by “The loyal opposition” and others that think he isn’t acting like a conventional politician. He isn’t a politician and will never be because he has been an independent Chief Executive a good part of his life and patterns his style in the manner he thinks will get the job done. Never think that he is stupid or doesn’t have a clue about what he is doing because he didn’t amass his wealth by being stupid.

Does he bore you to tears bloviating about himself, yes he does but ask yourself is he doing his utmost to keep his campaign promises in the face of of a shadow group who will do anything to try to get him out of office. The answer is yes he is trying his best to keep his promises. When is the last time an elected official tried to do this rather than just join the swamp and the daily objective was to do nothing about those he represents but does everything to keep his office.

Trump isn’t extreme he is just a different breed than the career politician who goes to Washington with goals and finds out he is just another soldier for the cause of what the party requires to stay a politician.

I've never voted for a Democrat for President so why don't you fuck off with your ideological bullshit.
Sorry, I call 'em like I see 'em.

The difference is I'm able to think critically
Tap the breaks, chief.

You have fucking no idea what you are talking about if you feel like you're about to take a run at me.

Why not check yourself before you make yourself look like more of a fool?

It's really just one huge coincidence, nay a liberal conspiracy, that lifelong Republicans like McCain and Romney publicly condemn Trump, and in Romney's case voted to remove him from office. It can't be that he's an embarrassment to the country and perhaps even an existential threat, as noted liberal Mattis implies.
I don't think you are reading what I'm saying.

Trump does, in fact, behave embarrassingly, and he is, as you've said and I've agreed, a divider.

Where you and Mattis are both wrong is that he is some sort of threat to the Constitution.

Well, at least, any more than Obama, Bush, and Clinton have been. We can get down to the nitty-gritty and debate about the unconstitutional expansion of executive power all day, but in that regard, frankly, I would say Obama was significantly worse.

On top of that, for as odious as Trump, in fact, is for the majority of Democrats and even Republicans, he was elected because people were tired of the BULLSHIT being pushed by the other side. Instead of waking the fuck up, the left and the media are doubling down more than ever before.

Maybe Trump does not get re-elected because now that everyone has seen who he is, they might be tired of that, but all that is happening is the stage is being set for an even worse Donald Trump. On either or both sides.

There is, in fact, an overt left-leaning bias in the media to the point where bias does not even describe it anymore. It is full fledged unhinged dishonesty and propaganda. There is zero denying it. One needs simply look around this thread. It is eminently worse on the left than it is at Fox or whatever other blogospheres you want to point to on the right. Trump Derangement Syndrome has taken over the last functioning vestiges of their brains and it's apparently infected you as well.

Trump is not an existential threat if Obama wasn't. That's a sad joke. You need to check reality.

It's hilarious when somebody claims that they are able to think critically, or whatever other bullshit where they try to come across as so much smarter and/or morally superior to the masses. Regardless of whether it's about football, politics, or whatever.

GTFO. :lol

Oh, look. That dumb twat Kathy Griffin is trying to be relevant again. I hope this is investigated and she's charged with threatening the President's life.

She might as well be wearing a sign that says, "Please love me."

I don't think there is any debating that. I have never seen so many executive orders outside of the bounds of the constitution in my entire life.

The fact that Trump is being condemned by multiple military leaders is so choice.

These guys all have more honor in a singular turd than Trump would have in his entire life.

I think they've forgotten how "chain of command" works. And I'm still waiting to hear Mattis explain Trump's "unconstitutional" actions.

What is wrong with the Federalist? And I will laugh at you if you cite some mediamatters or equivalent bullshit saying they are white supremacists
No, it is not exactly down the middle.

Isn't that what all of the "media is bad" crowd is asking for? A non-biased media?

I don't think people really want that.

They want to be right. And they want the media to back that up.
