From a friend on Facebook about 'Trump World'

"This is an argument I'm seeing more and more from the right as Trump's psychoses continue to unfold and roll our country under:

TRUMP SUPPORTER: "This is Trump world now. You better get used to it. And if you don't like it, move!"

So this is how I've decided to respond: "As a citizen, it is my patriotic duty--not choice, but *duty*--to stand against tyrannical decrees that are in direct opposition to the Constitution. If you are unhappy with living in a democratic republic and would prefer the laws and mores of a Third World dictatorship, there are plenty out there to choose from. YOU move."

I'm tired of these people thinking this is *their* country and they're somehow more deserving of a space in America than I am. They are not, as they've been proving over and over again, some salt of the earth chosen people. They are not Christians, even if they may claim to be. Christians follow the teachings of Christ and try to emulate Him. These people don't even listen to their own Pope. Which should be beside the point, because we are *not* a Christian nation, no matter how much they want to pretend we should be. The Founding Fathers they all pretend to revere made sure of that. If someone wants or needs to be ruled by a religion, that's called a theocracy. We don't have one of those here, and the wants and needs of those who wish we did are not more important than their fellow citizens'. Yes--FELLOW CITIZENS.

I was told just this morning that if you didn't count New York and California, Trump would have won the popular vote. As though the people living in those places somehow shouldn't count.

Bigots are not more American than I am. They can shoot all the guns they want, eat all the apple pie, sing all the Toby Keith songs--if they don't believe in the Constitution except as a piece of paper they've never read but think they can wave in my face every time I use my rights to say something they don't like, they are not more American than I am.

And I'm tired of people giving me arguments from the KKK manifesto and pretending it has nothing to do with skin color or culture or orientation or whatever else they try to pretend not to disdain and hate. You elected a Mussolini wannabe. He said racist/sexist/homphobic/xenophobic things right out loud, and you said "okay" and pulled that lever. You were okay with voting away people's rights. You were okay with every single unconstitutional thing he proposed, and even if you weren't, you didn't care enough about the people who would be hurt because you *still* pulled that lever. If you're going to repeat White Supremacist rhetoric to defend your choice, at least acknowledge where it came from and fucking OWN it. And then YOU move."

1. Bookmarking to steal some of your responses for the right wingers in my life.

Made any good veg dishes lately?

[mntleo2]

8. What CrispyQ said n/t

[DinahMoeHum]

2. Why not just a shorter and sweeter response?

like
"FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE. THIS IS MY COUNTRY, TOO"

[elmac]

7. I would shorten that a little

like
"GO FUCK YOURSELF DUMBASS"
I guess its a good thing I don't associate with fascists.

[forgotmylogin]

12. "I've been here longer than you, and I've paid my taxes."

"This country does not belong to Donald. There is no such thing as "Trump World" beyond his stupid gold penthouse."

[Fantastic Anarchist]

52. That place is gaudy and tacky as fuck.

Just a waste of money. Who decorated that monstrosity?

[niyad]

3. k and r and bookmarking for what will undoubtedly be continual use.

[anarch]

4. you know, if it was an option to move to another planet, I would do that

but since that's not an option, I guess we'll have to fight.

either way, I feel like the only response to something like this from a bunch of fascists is, "fuck you!!"

[Fantastic Anarchist]

53. Fight back, comrade anarch!

This is not their Earth. If they want fascism, let them board a shuttle they paid for, and and have an unsafe and unpleasant trip. Fuck them.

[Useless in FL]

5. YES!

Bookmarking to use when needed. Thanks.

[smirkymonkey]

6. K&R and Bookmarked!

Nice Job!

[manicraven]

9. Beautiful except too many words for Trump Chumps. Just say, "I don't support fascists."

[LittleGirl]

10. I'll have you know

that since I live in Europe right now, I didn't want anybody to claim that since I don't live in the states, I don't have a say anymore.

So Fuck 'em. I'm moving home next month, in 36 days because I am joining the fight.
I am joining the #Resistance Fight.
There is so much more I can do there than sit back here in Europe and watch my home country implode.

#Resist and Fight until I Die!

[ffr]

14. It comes naturally, doesn't it.

[LittleGirl]

23. Thank you for that!

my 3400th post. It's been a long stretch where I didn't say much, but I've got a big mouth and I'm going to put it to use now!
Edit: ooops typed the number wrong, ha ha

13. "You were okay with every single unconstitutional thing he proposed, and even if you weren't...

YOU DIDN'T CARE ENOUGH ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO WOULD BE HURT, BECAUSE YOU *STILL* PULLED THAT LEVER."

This is the single biggest problem I have with tRump supporters and Hillary Clinton haters. They are selfish, self-centered, motherf-ing schadenfreude haters of what other people have. And they're so blinded by their absolutionistic hating ways, they cannot find inclusion in bettering someone else's life equally.

[Fast Walker 52]

17. I'm a well-off white Christian-heritage male, who in theory should benefit from Trump-GOP policies

but I hate them, because 1) I'm a democrat, 2) I'm sane, 3) I CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE

[TexasBushwhacker]

22. Yeah, I heard a Trump supporter on the radio

She was positively gleeful because "I'm a Trump supporter because I'm a small business owner and he's going to lower my income tax rate from 35% to 15%."

So if she's been paying 35%, that means her taxable income is over $416,700 (assuming she's single) and she thinks she pay the same tax rate as someone making $37950.

Excuse me but FUCK HER!

[Fast Walker 52]

33. I agree, and to be clear

I'm not THAT well off. I'm comfortable.

[Fantastic Anarchist]

54. They only hurt themselves when taxes are not assessed equitably.

Then people will be able to buy their products and services. They lose money more money than they will pay in taxes. Stupid assholes.

[uponit7771]

[Orsino]

15. Understand that if his win isn't their win, they have nothing.

They won't easily abandon that faith.

[Fast Walker 52]

18. he made them feel like powerful winners, though it made them shed all sense of humanity

in the process

[Orsino]

20. These are people with huge holes in their souls...

...if they are depending on a win by a man known only for fake wealth and empty promises charged to ordinary people. It seems that what they're really rooting for is for others to lose.

[Fast Walker 52]

34. sure seems that way...

[Fast Walker 52]

16. the "love it or leave it" argument is just fucking lazy idiocy. It means they have no idea

what is going on, and just exist in their own selfish idiot world.

[TeamPooka]

19. Trump's margin of victory in the Electoral College was the same amount of votes that Texas has

so if they attack NY or CA, blame it all on Texas.

[Stellar]

21. Bookmarked for future reference.

[dae]

24. Great OP thanks for sharing.

[world wide wally]

25. They claim to be more patriotic as they wink at Russian involvement in our election.

They claim the economy sucks as they vote for the people who will do everything in their power to tip the scales to the already wealthy and say "fuck poor people"

They claim to have God on their side as they support any reason for war that Trump comes up with.
They claim to have God on their side as they support a man who lies more than half the time. Wasn't that a commandment?

How about just fuck you phoney assholes. If you want a fucking Hitler fascist, just fucking come out and say so.

Stop all the phony ass patriotic and religious bullshit. At least be a PROUD TRUMP FASCIST... not a sniveling phony.

26. THE LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT CROWD

FUCK THEM

[liberal N proud]

27. Here is my short response to the support for treason

Opposing trump is no longer political! It is about the survival of democracy and everything our fathers, grandfather's and uncles fought and died for. We owe it to them to preserve this nation and not allow a fascist regime to destroy in a few short weeks what took more than 200 years to build.
You can't be a patriot or a Christian if you support the hate filled actions coming from the trump white house.

[phylny]

37. (and mothers, grandmothers, aunts, daughters, etc.) :) nt

[liberal N proud]

39. I totally agree, but I was considering my audience and their ignorant equality views

Most of them didn't see the women's roles as a contribution.

No intention of forgetting everyone's contributions.

[phylny]

41. True enough :) n/t

[Glamrock]

28. Someone said that to me the other day.

I said, "yeah, I know how you feel. I kept waiting for the tea party to leave when we were in Obama world. That first amendment sucks!" Walked away shaking my head while he sputtered trying to come up with an answer.

29. My Response to "if you didn't count New York and California, Trump would have won the popular vote"

If you don't count my belly fat or ass fat I'm a skinny person.

[mnhtnbb]

36. If you don't count the dumbfu*ks in flyover country who are too stupid and self-destructive

to realize they are voting against their best interests, then the most qualified person (Hillary) wins.

[phylny]

38. If you don't count California and New York, where are the taker states going to get money? n/t

[MasonDreams]

31. rec & BOOKMARKED

It needs to be said.The KKK thinks that they are "Christians". The "right" claim the founders were Christians. Some were, some just Masons, all just people. US & THEM. If you think THEM are the problem look in the mirror. If the person in the mirror is "Christian" then it is time to realize. Forgive those who trespass.How would you like to be treated?
Misspellings like Jehovah & Allah, are small trangressions easily forgiven by a merciful God. Have you no compassion for those who have no faith?
The new "President" has given us the priceless gift of showing us where that Wide Gate is. Rejoice, you are not the rich man. Neither a camel, nor an oragatange can pass through the eye of a needle. This man, more so, than any person I have encountered in this life, has gained the world and lost his soul. Watch closely, he is a Master of
Deception and is turning brother against brother.

[voteearlyvoteoften]

32. You move!

Yes

[raccoon]

35. You rock.

[TrekLuver]

40. I tell em that I'm staying so I can torture their asses. And I do it very very well.

[torius]

42. I tell them

they are using the Internet and social media, liberal inventions. They couldn't find musicians to play at the Inauguration because most people who create the entertainment they enjoy are liberals. They enjoy Social Security, Medicare, and the ACA, all things liberals fought for. They get to have clean air and water and workplace safety because liberals battled Republicans and won these for everyone. So instead of just take, take take and troll troll troll, why don't THEY make a contribution?

[kimbutgar]

43. Great comment

They are correct it is not their country. It is our country. And, I just also have the right to say it's my country! You friggin leave. I would call ou those who put down the coasts. If they had a chance of a good job and live on either of the coasts they'd go in a heart beat.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

44. Bravo, and great responses!

[keepthemhonestO]

45. wow

well said. Whenever they say this crap it makes my skin crawl and I never feel like I have a good response. Good one

[SleeplessinSoCal]

46. to add to his claim had he campaigned in CA, he'd have won it....

He campaigned in Costa Mesa, Orange County, and pretty reliably Conservative. Costa Mesa went for Hillary.

[Mr.Bill]

47. In the 60s when we heard

America - love it or leave it, we had an answer. Change it or lose it.

[womanofthehills]

48. A republican women in our small town was going on about how wonderful it was that Trump was

doing everything he said he would do. So I questioned her on why she thought big oil was more important than indigenous people having clean water. Her friends went crazy on me - they found a photo on me protesting in the women's march - they posted it and said because I was marching they could tell I had hate in my heart. I don't usually drink but I just had some rum - not even worth answering them because they are beyond rational. They are the religious bigots and they are f**king crazy. Psychos to the max!

[iluvtennis]

49. Amen...thank you, love it

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

51. Nice. And thank you for the paragraph breaks!

Many otherwise proficient readers have difficulty with blocks of online text longer than a few sentences. It's scientifically proven and explained.

[Mc Mike]

57. It's only fair. After all, who can forget how all the teabags moved out

of the US, when they were unhappy about the last 2 Prez elections?

[47of74]

58. I don't even bother responding anymore.

I just block them.

Fornicate them and the farm animal they Fornicate in on.

[ProfessorPlum]

59. yeah, and if assholes hadn't have voted, Trump would have lost with 0 votes

stupid argument.


I see this about every four years when someone says "if only white people had voted, the GOP candidate would have won".

I always ask them, "what's your point?"
