It's hard to be irrational when the bar is set so low that we place a man who doesn't even understand the difference between life and health insurance managing the world's largest bureaucracy and commanding the world's largest military. There is no rational reason to 'respect that he won'. He won because millions of Americans trust their Facebook news feed for objective factual news. There is nothing worthy of respect in that regard.
Isn't Trump the empty vessel in a more literal sense? He has no ideologies and just mimicks the last individual that complimented him the most. So, wouldn't those voters be hypocrites in a rather absurd and obvious manner?
Not empty, but old and tired, with no clue about how to dress. Those costumes she wore during the campaign were ridiculous.
I love how the people that voted for Trump blame Trump winning on the people that didn't vote for Trump.
The Russian double agent rapist I love how some Democrats can't accept blame they ran the only candidate vulnerable to Trump
Uh, Mr. trump isn't a Russian double agent, and I've never thought of the man-child as a rapist. He loves to treat women like trash, having a documented history of abuse towards women, but a rapist? He doesn't have the balls. I think he is quite possibly being blackmailed by Russia, because his behavior towards a foreign power hostile to our country, a foreign power with documented evidence of an attempt to influence the 2016 election, something John McCain called an act of war, makes no sense whatsoever. Yet here you are still defending the man. With all due respect, it's bizarre.
He is sexist imo. Its repulsive . But I'm glad you can reasonably separate the attitude from actually assaulting women. I understand some of his confrontations with women have influence on people's judgements but I truly believe a lot of his rhetoric is meant to stir the pot. He is a reality star who wants to remain a topic
I think there are many candidates that would be vulnerable to Trump. I don't think the other candidate really matters much. The narrative gullible elderly people read on their Facebook news feed had more prevelance in Trump winning than whatever the Democratic candidate did or did not do.
regardless of Clinton's own strengths and weaknesses, the truth still remains... Democrats for the most part voted for Clinton. Republicans and so-called conservatives for the most part voted for Trump. Its those that voted for him own responsibility for it. While many that did now claim they didn't (skirting blame and responsibility) doesn't change those two simple and irrefutable facts. btw, just count how many posts you have made defending Trump on this and every other thread.
It has nothing to do with elderly people people and their inherent intelligence. It has to do with them not being raised in the internet/social media age to hone the skills of distinguishing between valid and fake sources. There have been an influx of elderly people in the past 3 years signing up for social media accounts. It's been a massive boom. Elderly people have discovered that one of the best ways to keep in touch with distant relatives is through online social media. It's a very benign geniune reason. Unfortunately they weren't raised in that atmosphere to understand the subtle nuances in distinguishing between trollish headlines and legitimate news sources. I mean scroll through your Facebook news feed right now and just see all the plethora of disinformation in every other meme being posted. I personally see this phenomenon with my own mother. She's relativly new to the internet. She has about 4 years of experience on it. I'll see the junk she follows in regard to 'alternative treatments'. She can't tell what's sponsered content and what's geniune information. It takes practice and time. It has nothing to do with elderly people being inherently dumb. Then when you factor in the notion that the elderly turn out to vote the most of any demographic, it's legitimately possible that shitty news feeds from social media led to a Trump victory.
You act like he started the Iraq He hasn't disappointed Republicans. You live in a Democrats bubble. He is pursuing their policies
In your compulsion to defend Trump you seem to have difficulty completing thoughts. Why are you bringing up Iraq? And where do I say republicans are disappointed by Trump. I say republicans are responsible for voting in Trump. They own him. I did say republicans here and elsewhere refuse to take responsibility for Trump though. Look how many republicans and so-called conservatives now claim they didn't vote for him... and increasingly, saying they don't support "this" or "that" about Trump. That doesn't takeaway blame though.
Because using you using the word blame as if they deem his as not looking out for them You seem to just want to argue about the past. Get over it. Yes they are to blame congratulate or whatever But I congratulate him for winning with the same base everyone else deemed dead All I defend on is he is not a Russian double agent rapist. I don't feel a compulsion. I feel common sense I thought it was clear I brought up Iraq to say he hasn't done anything terrible in actual policy
Again, you are very hard to follow. But if you are saying "republicans are to blame for Trump, not Democrats" then I guess we are in full agreement. Your last sentence simply shows your admiration for Trump. As does your compulsion to defend him. Me... I simply point out all of the horrible things he says and does. Going back in time is pointless... stopping further damage of the mistakes made November 2016 is vitally important.
And all I say he should be congratulated for winning and he isn't a Russian double agent rapist. Shame on me
Every time I begin to wonder if Trump voters worry they might have made a mistake voting for him, I see posts like this and I know they feel more secure than ever in their choice. It's the "moral superiority and eliteism" stupid. Keep it up for a 2nd term!
