What do you see in this man????
Seriously, what redeeming qualities do you find in a man like Donald Trump? Is he a smart man? he a good leader? Is it because he's an articulate leader who plans his actions? Is it because he's a good boss?
If you can answer any of these questions with a straight face, or with any sort of dignity, you might want to rethink your choices in life.

And race.

(63,221 posts)Exactly! They are all about the hate. They like him because he makes life miserable for the people they hate.
The thing they don't realize is that he is simultaneously making their lives miserable as well. But they don't care. As long as they see pain inflicted upon their "enemies", they will sacrifice their own well being.

(1,527 posts)The libs wanna take my guns, and kill millions of babies!!! Any thing Trump does is A-OK as long as they can fall back on these. And these two they will say out loud.
Yes they are closet racist, and may not even admit it to themselves even if they come back with "All lives matter". But 30 years of Rush Limpball and Fux Nuze, and they will not listen to any reality, or actual facts. I saw someone called the Trump Davidians. About right.

(14,972 posts)They are not fucking ashamed of the reasons. They'll tell you straight up. Not much hesitation to do so either.
A bunch of them will also spout counterfactual bullshit about various conspiracy theories, and often do that as an opening gambit. But scratch the surface and they will quickly admit and embrace the overt bigotry, in substance if not in name.

He says things they want to hear, he acts like they want to act, he hates the same things they hate and he seems like a success to them.
There are a shit-ton of racist assholes in this country who have waited all their lives for a guy like this to rise to national political power. Still others who just want him to appoint judges and roll back abortion and gay rights.
What they see in this man is someone that says things they have always wanted a president to say, but until now, no president would.
This guy just doesnt give a shit. And they LOVE him for it.
The thing is, it is all a con. Hes a fraud and they have all been conned, but they dont care!
As long as he continues to be ruthless and cruel to the people they hate, as long as he keeps rubber stamping the judges, as long as he doesnt raise their taxes, as long as he keeps spending money on the military so their dicks can get hard shouting MERICA!......
But as Howards Stern said the other week, and Mary Trump said in her book, Trumpy wouldnt give the time of day to the average MAGAT. He doesnt care about them one iota. Not a sausage.
But the rest of us, and we WAY out number them, are fucking tired of this clown show.

Wow, did you ever nail it. Its the sad truth to the extent that even the few 45 supporters who know hes a con dont care they love their hired gun.
Can it get any more subversive and nihilistic than that?

(12,286 posts)I do not give a flying fuck what MAGAts think, want, or wish.
I don't need their opinion.
In fact, I don't WANT their opinion.
That they support trump and trumpism is totally disqualifying to me. They are non-persons. Full stop.
They are subhuman scum and I will never forgive nor forget this.
Ever.
Fuck them all to hell and back.
