POV of a Quiet Trump Supporter

I'm a moderate who agrees with perspectives from both the left and the right. I have friends who are Liberal and friends who are Republican. If someone has a different perspective than me, I never get upset with them. I listen to their point of view and always respect their individual opinion. I've always enjoyed politics and listening to different podcasts and shows. When I was 18-19, I voted for Trump. I was open about it and got a lot of hate in the blue state I'm in. When the next election came around, I was exhausted from hearing everyone's opinion on Trump. I didn't like Biden as an option, and I was focused on surviving in my own life. So, I decided not to vote.

I'm 26 years old now. I understand Trump is far from perfect. I've heard all the same cons about him millions of times from people who spew the same brainwashed monologue. Most of these people aren't really in tune with politics or world events. I just agree with them to keep the peace since I never bring up the conversation of politics around them 99% of the time.

My real point of view: I like Trump. Most politicians and celebrities have narcissism. Guess what? I don't care. He is very patriotic and I genuinely believe he wants to see this country succeed. People who compare him to Hitler are sick in the head and have no concept of history. My grandfather was a German-Jewish Holocaust survivor, and my family still remarks that he would have loved Trump. I believe in liberty or death. I agree with people disagreeing with me. I love respectful debates. I love the First Amendment and the right to bear arms. I love seeing legal immigrants come here and change their lives for their families and themselves. I love seeing a mix of nationalities in my beautiful city. Seeing the assassination attempt on Trump and his response to stand up and address the crowd made me realize he is a real American, like the leaders I read about in history books. I love America. Yes, I support Trump even if he is far from perfect. He represents the grittiness and unwavering strength of this country. If you disagree, guess what? That's your right.

I'm at the same place you were in the 2020 election, just not going to vote. I don't care for either candidate.
@BohemianBabe Maybe 4 years of Trump and a republican congress will convince the dems to get their act together. The party is certainly a mess at the moment.
@independentone If Trump wins and becomes a dictator, which is what Project 2025 would do, then it doesn't matter what Democrats do. We don't be having real elections anymore.
@BohemianBabe If you're buying into those fear tactics, you might as well just join some cult.
Project 2025 is just the agenda of some far out right wing nut job from the heritage foundation.
@independentone Bruh. Over half over the people behind it were in Trump's last administration. These aren't random fringe people, these are mainstream Republicans who will absolutely be in Trump's cabinet again if he wins. Also, Trump will do whatever the Heritage Foundations wants. He doesn't care about abortion, but he still put anti-choice judges on the SCOTUS because that's what the Heritage Foundation wanted.
@BohemianBabe All just fear tactics, not going to happen
@independentone Why not? Who would stop them?
@BohemianBabe The Constitution
@independentone Who would enforced the Constitution against these people, who don't believe in the rules of the Constitution?
@BohemianBabe If you want to run scared, that's up to you, I choose to believe the country is strong enough to withstand a handful of nutjobs from the heritage foundation.
@independentone Once again, who is going to enforce the Constitution against the Republicans? The SCOTUS?
@BohemianBabe I really don't want to speculate on something that hasn't happened, and in my opinion, will never happen.
I do think if the dems want to win the white house and possibly either the house or senate, Biden needs to step aside, and do it soon.
Joe Biden can not beat Trump and with the hollywood set not donating, the house and senate will also be lost.
