Not sure where he's going with that. Hoping he'll clarify.

I think you can be the biggest MAGA Trump supporter on earth and still admit the guy is extremely ego-driven. You can love him, vote for him, defend everything he does, whatever. But pretending ego, status, attention, and personal validation aren't a huge part of what drives him is just silly. You don't have to deny every obvious flaw or personality trait to support someone.


I think this is fair.

These Donald Trump hating retards... might eventually realize that he's irrelevant in the grand scheme of things. It's already happening. The nazi king concentration camp ICE gestapo is wearing off. You'll now be afraid that AI is going to kill you, and you'll never believe who can stop it... the people who destroy everything they touch! They've figured it out!

But there's a catch. It's oddly going to sound like the same Democratic plan as before......

I suppose I’ll give er a shot:

I was drawing a comparison between two things.

The first thing is the popular theme on this, to wit: “it’s okay to both criticize and support your favorite politician at the same time”. However, it’s typically put in much snarkier terms.

The second thing, which is my argument for a good comparison, is that it’s also okay to criticize the criticism, full stop.

**See, the context in which I even bring this up is when a Trump-favoring poster dare jump in one of those many Trump “criticism” circle jerks and post with disagreement, they’re hit from multiple directions with the aforementioned popular theme, or tagline, as it were. The obvious insinuation to/towards the daring Trump supporter being that you’re a brainwashed cultist physically incapable of criticizing your orange leader, unless you agree will agree with xyz criticism. (just a little levity there)

Anyhow, that got away from me a little at the end there, but hope it helps. I bet it’ll help you. Some of the others there, I have my doubts.

Thanks for clarifying. I don’t think I did anything to try to silence you or keep you from speaking. I just responded to your question in what I thought was genuine good faith.

If there’s something I said that came across as ridicule or an attempt to shut you down, point it out and we can talk about it. Otherwise, your broader point is fair enough, but I’m still not really seeing how it connects to what I actually said or why it was directed at me in particular.

Not tired of him as much as I’m tired of RINOS not getting shite done over the last two years.

By the way, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but aside from the occasional sporting jab back and forth, I really don’t come here to troll, and when I do I'm matching energy. Sure, I enjoy giving SirWinston and STDcuck shite. It’s basically "on sight" with those two. But generally I’d much rather have a reasonable debate with someone arguing in good faith.

You and I disagree 95% of the time, but I’ve always respected you as someone who argues in good faith, and I’d like to think that respect goes both ways. So, respectfully, it’s a little disappointing when you respond to me as though I’m just trolling you instead of actually engaging with what I said.

Well, you do have me thinking. Perhaps I got caught up in a case of “right idea, wrong person.” If I came across as dismissive of you, I would rescind any such idea. Upon further thought, I do have an overall positive perception of our previous discourse. It was those other rabble rousers in here, stoking up discord. No-good yankee agitators, I’m sure. Lol

Seriously,

These are the threads that always make me laugh. They are always either a troll, or are started by someone really dumb. If you can't see what we are currently fighting against Globalism and Communism, then I'm afraid it is too late for you.

I bought him for too long.

The guy is just the carnival barking grifter he always has been. Now, I'm worried how stupid he will get before he's done.

Interesting…..looking at the up/down votes on this post, 33% down is relatively large in a conservative environment like this board (a super small sample).

37/74

just want someone who is genuinely patriotic, puts the country above themselves or their party, respects working families, and is focused on making America better for the next generation. I can appreciate what Trump did without believing he’s the person I want leading the country today. Both things can be true.


That’s the problem. He sold everyone a bill of goods thinking that he was a man truly for the people. He never was. If you watched him throughout the years, he was nothing more than a real estate conman, turned reality TV star and had no interest in the people, only enriching his family and his friends. It’s just that simple.

I think all Presidents, even when successful, have a shelf life. Usually it’s about 6 years. Trump has dominated politics for 10 plus years. And he has not just dominated politics, he has sucked every bit of oxygen out of the political arena.

Yes but he has also made some really just dumb political decisions. In spite of all of that he has still thrown more strikes than balls but he is starting to throw more wild pitches and that is a concern.

Still, my biggest fear isn’t what Trump does or doesn’t do over the next 2 years. My concern is that, due to his ego and desire for personal validation, coupled with his merry Mensa bands of seal-clappers, he will try to dominate the next Presidential election cycle and we will end up with whomever he endorses and not the best candidate.
