I don't think people love Trump. I know I don't.

I don't think they like the actual guy, but what he represents to them. He is the first republican candidate who has stood up to the democrats since Reagan. Now, Reagan was loved, and by a lot on both sides of the aisle. trump is a tool for the angry voters from the right wing. Gingrich was close to being the guy, but then he did some stupid stuff and disappeared.

they love the guy. i know tons of trump fans and they love him. a guy without a single redeeming quality and they love him.

i agree with you that they love that he pretends to be some macho tough guy. that he is fighting the evil democrats and establishment for them. its all fucking bullshit. trump loves himself and himself only. a pure garbage human being.

most of that is because the republican propaganda machine is fucking massive and extremely effective. what fox news and am radio has done to the american people has been a disaster. just constant rage baiting the people consuming it. its probably mostly effective because your average republican is a moron. the vast majority of the republican base is very uneducated. they fall in lock step with whatever message the republican party puts out there. will vote against their best interests and show a disturbing lack of empathy.

trump and his cronies are clearly criminals. were some democrats criminals? yeah. im sure they are. lets get them too.

the problem is trump has no regard for this country. anyone that thinks they weren't trying to overthrow the government by overturning the election is a child with their fingers in their ears. it happened. there was a plan in place and they were trying to execute it. shockingly Pence found the one time in his entire life to do the right thing. more people than just pence but he was a key figure that they needed and he wouldn't go along with it.

trump is a danger to this country and that is why he needs to be made an example of. whatever punishment he gets, if any, won't be enough. no telling how his mishandling of documents cost this country. this isn't a tds rant. its just the facts. which many people will refuse to listen to because they are to insecure to realize they backed the wrong horse.

There are some very accurate points in your post, but to claim that republicans or democrats are more/less educated is a fallacy. Both parties have morons voting for them, and both parties have intelligent supporters. The problem is that the idiots on both sides yell the loudest, so people assume they represent the totality of the group.

sure there are some dipshit democrats. but just going by anecdotally, it isn't even close. republicans are part tards. way more than dems.

with my job i deal with mostly high school educated people or drop outs. lots of lower iq folks. and lots of them are republicans. not even knowing their political stances, i would never take life advice from most of these people. never the die hard republicans. they are always fucking stupid. i understand there are smart republicans but the vast majority i run across are fucking idiots.

again this is all anecdotal. but i just don't know too many people i would call democrats or liberals. i know probably like 4 democrats really well and they are pretty bright people.

most of the smarter people i know are moderate to slightly right. which is how i would really classify myself. some here might say bs because i shit on the republicans so much. but it really is true and if we all had beers you would understand. but here is the kicker, there is zero chance we would vote for the shit show that is the republican party today.

the republican party hasn't been fiscally conservative since before reagan. maybe bush 1 was fiscally conservative but i don't remember. reagan wasn't. bush 2 wasn't. trump certaintly wasn't.

the republican party is all about banning everything. there is zero small government. it is only culture wars, ban anything that isn't white, christian and male and tax cuts for the rich.

i have loved ones that are gay. it is an absolute disaster what the fuckface republicans are doing to people that are simply different than them. its disgusting. boycotting companies for acknowledging people exist? fuck off

i am all for letting people do whatever they want if it isn't hurting anyone else. you know, like freedom. the republican party is 100% against that. only stupid people would be against that
