The rest are either stupid or just under a great misapprehension.Characterizing half the country as racists without a good bone in their body just because of how they voted on a single election is a bit far don’t you thinkI love how you focus on race. I didn't say all Trump supporters were racist; most of them are sure, but the rest are either genuinely unintelligent or misinformed and guillible. I know good people who [would have] voted for Trump, but I do not know good people who support Trump. It's not about who you voted for, it's about who you support on a day-to-day basis. You're not a good person if you support an administration that separates young children from their families and locks them in cages. You're not a good person if you support an administration that enables sexual misconduct. There are lots of people who deeply regret their vote for Donald Trump, either thinking he was some democratic sleeper agent or that none of his policies would get through or he would drop out of his own accord. I think these people were wishfully thinking and ignorant; that doesn't make them bad people. But we didn't have a taste of Trump's governing style before 2016's election. Now that we do, I think decent people everywhere have an obligation to vote against him. There's no excuse this time.

I've never met a single Trump supporter who was also a good person.
I think Eli touched on a pretty good point though. It's not necessarily that people who voted for Trump are terrible people, just those that continue to support him two years into this shit show.

No Trump supporter I know actually taking children away from their parents. No Trump supporters I know actually support grabbing women by the pussy. No Trump supporter I know would actually support the destruction of America that you and Challenger think is happening.
When they look at Trump, they see a man who is flawed but who also has the economy growing, a strong stance on foreign affairs, and a willingness to criticize allies for not pulling their weight.
They’re tired of constantly being told they’re responsible for the ailments of black people, then women, then gay people, then trans people, then immigrants, then everybody else and their mother.
They’re tired of the identity politics.
So when a guy steps up and says everything they think and feel, it resonates a lot with the average person. They’re not thinking “this inspires me to hate Mexicans and women”. They’re thinking that Trump speaks for them.
The point of this long winded explanation is not that Trump is a good president or that excuses can be made for some of the genuine horrible things that he’s done. But you should remember that people are people and relegating them to the one dimensional view you have of them is doing them and yourself a disservice
"What were you imagining when you voted for President Trump?""He said 'The system is rigged.' He said he was going to be a new sheriff in town. And all he's done is surround himself with crooks. How many people have been indighted who were in close cahoots with him? And there, in front of the world stage, he looks at Putin, puts his arm around him and says 'This is my buddy.'"..."When I voted for Trump, I was looking for change, I was looking for maybe a non-political person coming in and a businessman bringing his expertise and skills into leadership. He's just not focused, not very sincere to whatever he decides to do. Things change fast, a good example is his positive relationship with Vladimir Putin and then the sanctions against Russia... I'm just not sure who is running this country right now."..."So is it fair to say that these character issues you have with Donald Trump supercede even the issues you voted for?"Unanimous: "Yes."..."I've been a life-long Republican since the day I turned 18. I think these midterms are really importan because the Republicans, I'm very sad to say, have become very, very spineless; they've become cowardly and just extraordinarily unwilling to stand up to Donald Trump's bizarreness that takes place daily in the Whitehouse."
We're not "thinking" it's happening. This is what's happening. The United States' President is a puppet for Russia, and elects people to important positions of power, not based on competency, but on loyalty. That's "Mad King" shit, dude. Have some respect for your own country and history.
I don't know what else to tell these people when they're being racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic and any other nonsense I'm leaving out. We have to call out these things, no matter how minute they may seem, to really get rid of them.
It just doesn't matter the good he's done because it is so drastically outweighed by the horrible and fucking retarded things he does on a day-to-day basis. Do you watch the news (genuine question)? I don't like MSM either (they just published these bullshit 2020 DNC numbers that made me roll my eyes.) but if you watch anything other than Fox News it's really hard to take anything this guy says seriously. Like has been already stated, if you can't distance yourself from an administration that's done all these horrible things despite the few good things he does for you, there's not much I can say in your favour. You're obsessed with your own problems and need to look outward. Republicans have been broken since Obama got elected a second time and are trying to win back the culture wars. But you can't do it with this guy in office.
Why is it when you say “the people” I get the feeling you’re saying “white people”, like those are the only real Americans and the only ones that matter. You give away how much a racist as xenophobic scumbag you are in every post, and you don’t even realize it. This is how ingrained racism is in your psyche. In case you didn’t realize, Nguyen, you’re not “the people” you’re referring to. “Trump speaks for them”. You’re right. He absolutely does. He’s taking white trash racism straight to the whitehouse.

I’m not entrenched in anything, if trump was just an incompetent dude I wouldn’t care this much. But Cohen ran out on him and is giving the FBI who knows what information on crimes trump committed during the election and his presidency. So think real hard who it is that’s stuck on ideology here and is ignoring the facts.
