Why do people still support Trump?

Post Reply New Topic

he has set the tone from the top, for some bad actors to harm this nation in manifold ways. he gives tacit "permission" for racist thugs to wreak havoc at protests, he has hired downright crooks to run various gov't organs into the ground, he has blatantly compromised the u.s. postal service for the sole purpose of screwing over voters by delaying their ballots thus rendering them uncountable, and in the process thoroughly screwing up rural mail delivery, i have been getting bills in the mail so delayed that they are already past-due. the worst, is that he has openly invited foreign actors to mess with us. he has set us at each other's throats, he has assaulted us with 20k+ LIES under cover of gov't authority, he has DELIBERATELY botched the national response to covid19 and as a result has BLOOD ON HIS HANDS to the tune of 160k+ and counting. first he made us an international laughing stock, then an international object of pity and now an international pariah with many countries refusing american visitors. he has wrecked our economy, we are now in a 30s-style economic depression, the only thing saving us so far have been those relief payments that the GOP are now cheaping us out on.

Oh okay. I didn't hear about those things with Trump, especially the mail one.

I guess I just don't understand American politics in the sense, that a lot of people seem to only join two sides, instead of forming their own individual opinions, more, unless there is a lot of that as well?

I thought we all engaged in it in some ways but my question is what can I do about it?

What can you (general you) do about it if you work in a place where you have to follow procedures and laws but they work against the minority. Such as if you work as a mortgage broker and you give out loans but you also have to follow the rules so that means you would have to deny loans to people with low credit score and not enough income but that would work against the minority.

This is a uncomfortable topic to talk about so I know people will be reading this and go "what do you mean I am involved in this somehow?" They call that fragile

What does denying loans because of low credit have to with racism though?

Systemic racism.

Oh okay, but there are white people I know who were denied loans because of bad credit too though, so does it count as systematic racism, if white people are denied loans for bad credit, as well as other races?

That is a good question.

Bad credit is a symptom of poor economic conditions. The reasons why various people are poor is complex. Systemic racism, classism, and personal choices all contribute to ones inherited socioeconomic position in society. How far one can go in life is than a function of education, intrinsic skill, opportunity, and luck. I say education in a broad sense for any form of learned information, not necessarily from a school.

I hate what Trump is doing to this country. I have to be honest it almost makes me feel suicidal. I just hope I can survive this mess and not cross that line... And keep what's left of my sanity.

Edit: I'm just saying I REALLY do not want to live to see an actual war being fought on American soil. I'm at least smart enough to know exactly what happens in every war. I don't want to end up as 'collateral damage' or being taken prisoner by sadistic psychopaths. Really bad stuff happens to POWs in every war ever fought, just look at what our military did in Abu Ghraib during the War in Iraq.

It seems to me that the left will admit that no single solution exists meanwhile the right would rather pretend it's not an issue worthy of attention.

Are other people denied loans that might otherwise be approved if they were white? Are whites denied loans at the same rate as others? The fact that whites are also denied loans isn't proof that systemic racism doesn't exist.

Oh okay. Well for example, how often do they know the race of the person applying for loans? For example, when I apply for a credit card, they don't know my race, since I am applying online and they do not see me, unless they still no by other means?

A credit card is different than a loan. Loans are generally applied for in person at a bank (but not always).

Oh okay. Well there are white people I know who I would be extremely surprised if they could get loans. I don't have any black friends, but I have an Asian one, who could probably get one more likely, than those particular white ones I know. So I thought maybe it depends on the credit a lot more, unless I am wrong.
