This is a ramble, because i just don't get it.

Women dying in hospital parking lots.

The policy of solving the nations woes by placing high tariifs on other nations.
(You don't hear much, as of late, about drill baby drill)

Planning to deport 21 million immigrants. Apparently, if they have some skin color, legal immigrants are included. Placing them in camps and giving them a "serial number."
And for kicks, tent cities for the homeless. Definitely out of sight. Away from commodities, of course.
They can be delivered in rations. You know, like the native americans.

Excuse me...im watching a pair of eagles hunt my property....

Talk about executing the unfaithful. Or simpy imprisoning them.

He takes no responsibility for his actions.

He bowed to putin and the world watched. He kissed Kim's ass as the world watched.
He allowed the woman he called weak and stupid to rattle him over crowd size. Crowd size. Could you imagine if someone he idolizes critiqued him, in person?

His lies are repeated so often and with such conviction that he has millions believing.
I have a brother than can do that. He is a sociopath.
Remember that in just these past weeks, the maga crowd has vehemently insisted that haitians are eating pets. They argued, showed videos and photos. They were convinced of this absurdity, because trump said so. The idea that it put people's lives in jeopardy is of no concern.

He lies about the state of the economy. (It is the best recovery in the world). He says, as he did in 2020, that the stock market will crash if she is elected. If anyone that reads this has investments, they are doing pretty well with them.
Unless of course it's trump stock. That isn't doing so well...

He lies about crime.

I could go on.
And on and on.

I won't even go into his legal woes. That's a whole thing...

So, tell me maga people. What is it? How do you support a guy with these flaws? Do you people ever listen to a full speech or interview with him? I am not an educated individual, but what comes from his mouth has no meaning. He says what floats in his aging head. He's laughable. Seriously.
And his truth social posts. Come on people. Potus? Really?

It isn't Republicans who support Trump, it is actually a low-life crowd of uneducated rednecks from other countries who form the basis of the MAGA-movement in America that lies at issue here. Republicans at large have abandoned Trump because he does not support their view of what constitutes a Democratic Republic.

@swirlie I can see your point. However, it does fall at the hurdle where the Real Republican Party decided to welcome Trump and his people in, just because their own hold on power was slipping due to a declining demographic. Its not like Trump was an unknown quantity. The more Republican establishment you were, the more you knew about the real Trump..They knowingly grabbed the tiger by the tail and now they are stuck with the consequences..😷
@swirlie Denial and avoiding reality doesn't help anyone. Pretending it is 2003 is not going to make it true.

I wouldn't at all say that the Real Republican Party welcomed Trump in, but what they really did was dismiss Hilary Clinton at her face value. To have a female POTUS, white or otherwise, was incomprehensible in the American mind and quite frankly still is.

In America's uneducated view of their reality, a truly 'unknown' male 'Trump' as a fledgling politician back in 2016, was a better roll-of-the-dice than choosing a 'well-known' career female politician with plenty of political experience to her credit and who had America's back. Trump did not, nor does he today.

Trump was a registered Democrat before he entered politics and anyone in the NY business world knew what low-lifes the entire Trump family have always been, which dates back as far as the 1930's when the Late Fred Trump and his mother formed 'Trump Corp' together.

America as a Nation had no clue who the real Donald Trump was when they elected him to POTUS in 2016, despite numerous books that had been written about him from as far back as the 1980's which revealed who he was, what he was all about and which also revealed that he suffered from Attention Deficit Syndrome since before his adolescent years.

@swirlie the republican party embraces him, swirlie. Because trump commands an impressive base. @whowasthatmaskedman has a good take on why they need that base. Many true republicans were indeed driven from the party or pushed to the edges.
But the numbers of maga faithful is huge. Many, many of this group of people never voted in their lives.
And they are indeed easily manipulated by operatives in other countries, flooding their chosen media spaces with propaganda disguised in memes.
It's insane.

I totally disagree with you. The Republican Party no longer exists in substance today.

What exists today is the Trump Party who's base are those who form the MAGA movement, whom are not traditional American Republicans.

The MAGA crowd are uneducated rednecks who push their extreme-right agenda on right-wing extremist websites, who say they represent the Republican Party of America. They do not.

Again, I totally disagree with you. The very large percentage of America who identify as Republicans, are still the old guard, traditional Republicans. That part of the American 'right' has not changed.

What has changed however, came from the introduction of the Trump Party which formed on the heels of the extreme-right MAGA movement which actually had nothing to do with Trump himself. Trump never formed the MAGA movement, but he did become their spokesman. Trump is a Democrat and always has been a registered Democrat until he entered politics.

The American Republican Party got hijacked by the Trump Party, like the wolf who wore sheep's clothing. It wasn't that the Trump Party replaced the Republican Party, it's more about how the Trump Party has overlaid itself onto the back of the Republican Party like the sheepskin being overlaid on the wolf.

@swirlie Part of your point I concede. The classic Republican party has been ground away since Reagan. It was a hollow corrupt shell by the time Trump came along and ripe for the picking. A whole new party will have to emerge after this, if democracy still has any say at all. The question is, will it be the rarty of the aspirational common man, like Eisenhowers party? Or the party of the privilged rich, Like Liz Cheney and Paul Ryan?😷
