Its counterproductive pointing out to them just how wrong they are..It only strengthens their need to defend their opinions against all logic and its hard enough without the rest of us rubbing it in. They feel bad enough already.. Thank you. 😷
@whowasthatmaskedman I care about the feelings of genuine people. I don’t care about the feelings of antagonists. Trump supporters tend to be antagonists.
@justanothername I also get many Pro Trump posts are trolls and attention seekers. Obviously they cant afford therapy, so they come here. But Political commitment to a position is strong in many Americans. It is after all the nation of "My Country, right or wrong."😷
@SW-User I would settle for kids being taught "Financial Literacy" in schools, so they know what money is and how to manage their own. Economics is really only housekeeping on a grand scale.😷
You know when you are sitting in church and even though the preacher does not know you from Adam (pardon the pun) and then he starts in about what sinners you all are. He starts listing sins and as soon as he gets to your sin he stares right at you? You know that feeling? This is how I felt when I read this post. 😁
Were you talking about ME but didn't want to name names?
@HoeBag I had no one specific in mind. I just genuinely feel that the social culture in much of America makes it hard to admit publicly when you have made an error, and people dig in, when they really should just pack up their tent and find another cause..😷
@Mamapolo2016 Not really. I just think there comes a time to stop flogging the dead horse. Even Trumps family are now just wishing he would shut up and go away so they could move on..😷
@whowasthatmaskedman To play the devil's advocate here, one could argue that Trump's candidacy in 2016 survived among 15 more mature more able more experienced candidates because no other republican was willing to point out his lies and his childishness and his race baiting. I'd hate to see that same mistake made again.
Even back in 2016 Lindsey Graham, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Marco Rubio, Nikki Haley, etc; they KNEW how bad Trump is/was [media=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P43wDpKQxaM]
@HoeBag I agree the intensity of all this way out of hand. Trump aside;does anyone really believe that one man can solve a nations problems? Certainly not the problems America faces. But putting Trump back into the frame, his flaws and failings are so great as to turn the majority of the nation (and the planet) against him. He is a paralysis tick on Americas jugular vein. And thats being generous.. I realise he is being followed as the Messiah by some, and thats not going to stop. But America really does need to focus on its more real and pressing issues..😷
@novaguy2u Which is why they deflect, redirect and abuse. And its difficult in the face of that not to reply aggressively. But someone has to be the grown up.😷
Arguments against someone’s opinions rarely works, even with the facts on your side. And I figure if the koolaid hasn’t worn off by now then they’re probably gonna be ride or die with Sweet Potato Hitler for life, so discussions are largely irrelevant anyway.
I listen to Trump supporters, and right-wing people (which isn't always easy), and I try to understand the way they think; their mindset; their motivations.
@pdqsailor1 I get that it is not easy to feel empathy with something that appears that deliberately stupid.. But junk yard dogs are trained to bite by their owners..Given a different opportunity they could have been loving pets..😷
@whowasthatmaskedman LOL... they hate everyone, because they were trained by their master to hate everyone...but its like they are wearing this big sign that says "kick me" on their backs..
My question is where are the moderators at. People are getting the ban hammer for posting their own tits but you have people running around actually inciting people to violence in some cases and we get crickets.
I think we should try to convert Trump supporters into DeSantis supporters. If there's enough momentum there for DeSantis to challenge Trump, the shitfight is going to be hilarious
@whowasthatmaskedman I think I've grown twisted and bitter about politics where I'm less invested into whether Trump or Desantis emerges from the swamp and mostly just morbidly curious how ridiculous it gets
@plungesponge I understand the curiosity. But there are 300 million people out there trying to have a life.. How it goes does matter to most of them..😷
SW-User
Yes and maybe buy them a trump doll to help cheer them up
Can you really try and claim you're any more intelligent to Trump supporters if you voted for Biden though? the answer is no. You just come off like a damn fool
But he doesnt make money. He loses it, then stiffs his suppliers while going bankrupt on them after stripping any cas out. He is about to pull the same stunt with his Trump Technologies, and his investors stand to lose everything (as usual)
That's excellent news. Maybe the dummies will lose their last penny.
