I can understand people liking the Republicans:

Gerald Ford
Ronald Reagan
George Herbert Walker Bush
George W. Bush.

I'd like to hear why people like TRUMP so much.....I just don't get it.

I promise: I won't snap at somebody. I'm just curious.

Frankly, many of us don't much like Trump the man. But we can separate the symbolism from the substance. Personally, if given the choice, I would much rather have Obama as a neighbor, but Trump as president. As neighbors, the Trump's would be far too noisy.

Hi! How could you not be lovin' this president?

Did you know under his administration we:

-Have a great economy!
-Are building a Space Force
-Are the largest producer of oil and natural gas in the world
-Have the lowest rates of minority and female unemployment in decades
-Are receiving billions of $ in tariffs from China
-Have convinced North Korea to stop nuclear testing
-Are bolstering our military to Mighty again
-Are bringing back steel, auto, and other manufacturing jobs by the thousands
-Are protecting freedom of speech on college campuses
-Have annihilated ISIS
-Are trying to protect our borders
-Have put GOD back in our government
-Again, The Economy
-Are the envy of the world

Also, people love to throw around the word racist. But I have seen numerous examples of Trump NOT being a racist, and none of him being racist. I am pretty sick of that juvenile rhetoric. Plus he like NEVER takes a day off, he obviously loves his job, AND he doesn't take a salary!


Like Ann Coulter (via M Knowles) said, "When they call you a racist, you know you've won"

I’m not a Christian....so this God thing doesn’t apply to me.

There are many non-Christians who are decent people; most aren’t atheists like I am. The “religious right” is all about Christians—and no one else. They disregard people of other religions. The United States is not, officially, a Christian nation (I have not much animosity towards Christians, by the way.

Religion and Government must be strictly separate. That’s what the Founding Fathers wanted.

The economic recovery started under Obama.

Our military has been “mighty” for a long time. Trump has had nothing to do with that.

Obama was quite vigilant about protecting our borders, too. He wasn’t such a jerk about it as Trump is.

Protecting “freedom of speech”— for conservatives.

How much are these folks in manufacturing jobs being paid—especially if they are nonunion?

I know some military guys who despise Trump because he acts like such an expert on winning wars when the bastard actually weasled his way out of serving in Veitnam AND had the nerve to mock John McCain who was actually a POW in the Veitnam War.

The Pentagon certainly isn’t thrilled with him.....

Let me emphasize: I don’t knock anybody as a person for supporting Trump. I have friends who support him. I just wish he would go away.

Two of my grandmothers love him and I don't hate them for it, but it feels like 90% of MAGAs are quick to attack anybody who dares to criticize Trump with gaslighting, blame deflecting, and mud-slinging. Why shouldn't I despise them? If they can't play nice then f**k em all!

Yup, the economic recovery started under Obama, but conservatives don't care. They'll just roll their eyes and go back to giving Trump 100% of the credit because facts don't matter to them. They'll find some way to rationalize it.

My mom is a Trump fanatic.

She watches FOX news 2-4 hours per day. She sleeps with FOX news on.

Anything negative about TRUMP are "Democrat lies".

She hates AOC and Pelosi. Regarding AOC, "I HATE THAT WOMAN!" she declares.

That's what years of watching FOX news does to you. :)
