He is despised by people that despise the people that support him. This couldn’t be more obvious.

And trump says it all the time “it’s not me they hate, it’s you”. Trump was a celebrity for like 40 years, nobody ever hated him until he supported average, unimportant people. And that is exactly why people are getting outraged by they way he is being treated by the government. It’s an effort to silence opposition. And they will do it to the next guy, and they will do it to you.

Most people would say there are aspects of his personality that they don’t like, or just straight up not like him as a person. But he still has a huge following, which shows some people can separate how good of friends they can be with someone from how well they can do the job, and some can’t.

Perhaps, but their votes count as much as yours though so it may make sense to try to appeal to them by not being a jackass.


And this ^^^ is the problem, this is why the constitutional republic is in jeopardy. We have millions of uniformed, weak minded people who can't process information and data to make a prudent decision. We have millions of people that vote solely for the government's tit, they vote for a candidate that has been approved by late night television hosts who are leftists, they vote for a candidate because the Gaslight Media has destroyed their ability to think and behave independently of the media's influence.....we are living in the information war era....some understand and are less affected, millions have been captured by the leftist propaganda and others flatout resist and call out the psyop.

Agreed. Now, be honest with yourself, which is more likely: this changes, somehow, and they all begin thinking like you, or Trumps approach changes, thereby gaining their support?

It allowed Joe Friggin Biden to occupy the White House.

There must be better than that

Because if you choose poorly in a primary, you are guaranteed to lose, even if you win. And if you think they could steal it from Trump but would be okay with DeSantis winning, then you're a fool. You either crush them or you will be crushed, and you're not crushing them with a moderate, which is the only Republican they would cheat just enough to barely win.

I want my President to do his job not cede it to Fauci, to not let the country burn with riots and use his DOJ to investigate and prosecute voter fraud which they are charged with doing (not just whine about it on knock off twitter)


Just me.

I don't, I said they would cheat him and would only cheat a moderate just enough to win.

You should be screaming at Trump to handle himself in such a way that he garners 51% support from the American electorate, rather than screaming at the electorate to just accept the narcissistic ahole for what he is. In the end, it’s far easier for Trump to handle himself in a way that garners 51% support - change one person - than expect about 50 million people to rethink their positions.


This would seem to indicate the our modern society that often extols the virtues of “keeping it real” is actually full of shite.

People would actually prefer to be lied to so long as the people lying appear nice, say nice things and speak in proper platitudes.

Doesn’t speak too well for the mental acuity of this 50m.

Interesting and sad.

It’s the way he conducts himself honestly. People don’t like it. That’s it. That’s the answer. I’m sure people are going to talk about “my feels” and such, but it doesn’t change the fact that many people find him distasteful and morally reprehensible. They want more from their leaders. I’ll put it like this. If a politician acts in a way with his temperament that I would not accept from my 9-year old children, then I’m not going to be inclined to vote for him.


Do you apply this standard consistently?

I find that many people that really don’t like Trump, and used those feelings as the basis of their 2020 vote, have now checked themselves out of politics.

Then you are ignorant. He didn't. As pointed out over and over, and done so by article after article, Trump ignored Fauci on reopening and followed his own plan recommendations. DeSantis followed those.

Your Ignorant... Trump did not close a signle damn state because....wait for it... HE LACKED the power in the constitution.

Again, you seem to want a king or dictator and not a Republic.

I'll admit I'm not a huge fan of Trump's outbursts and often narcissistic comments but I had to be honest in 2016 when my pick for R candidate for the presidency didn't survive the debates, I had to listen to what Trump was campaigning on and more often than not I agreed with his vision for America.....I still do and so far I don't see a R candidate that can match Trump's original vision for America and they certainly can't match Trump's passion.

I’m a lot like you, I didn’t like Trump’s style but I liked his policies.

But I cringed every time he’d say something outrageous, and every time he’d fire someone and replace him only to fire the replacement. He didn’t know how to build a consensus or a strong administration.

And I can understand how independents were turned off by Trump to the point that they would vote for a Biden. Many became disgusted by Trump and his methods.
