    They’re furious, questioning his sense and tactics. Even say he’s acting like a child. And they’ll still vote for him. So close…

      At some point no matter the topic, everyone should ask themselves “what would it take to change my view”.

      If the answer is going to be “nothing will change my view”, you may have a problem and should start questioning why nothing can change it.

        As much as i agree, the self-awareness required is where this one stalls out

          discussing with stupid is like playing chess with a pigeon, you may play chess way better than that pigeon, but its gonna shit on the table, jump around all the figures throw them around like it’s winning and there isnt a thing you can do about it.

          It would take a LOT and over a LONG time and the best he could do is die without me thinking he was a COMPLETE cunt. But he could still drag himself back to “I guess in the end he wasnt all bad”

    He sees an attractive, successful young woman, and he tries to bully her to fulfill his weird fantasy. That’s his schtik. Duh.

    Very good! He managed to piss off another group. Hopefully, some of his (female) followers will getting doubts. And doubts are good.

      From what I’ve seen I’m guessing his deal was that he was a Trump supporter in 2016, saw who Trump really was, started to support anyone but Trump, then Trump won the primaries and he said, well thank god I live in America where I will still be able to buy an AK while having previous charges for weapons of mass destruction.

    I sure hope the cult sheds energy this way. A few voters here suddenly get butthurt, a few other voters get alienated by the same inflexible clumsiness of their orange clay idiot idol, the cult cannibalizing itself via many individual “I laughed until they insulted me, they insulted ME!” adding up to never being able to win another election.

      The soft landing for the cult exit would probably need to be something like “Trump isn’t what he used to be”.

      Then give them time to take account of how he always was…

        Trump isn’t what he used to be

        I think that’s a brilliant statement to have posted all over social media, let them all see it, it’s definitely a door with an “Exit” sign on top!

    Of all the things, why did “I hate Taylor Swift” pick up so much steam? I’m glad that it is impacting him negatively, I’m just kinda confused by it all.

    It’s the kind of thing that even if it were true, you should just be able to control you actions better. It’s really scary that he was (and could be) commander in chief of the US military. Really scary that he would have a hand in diplomacy and foreign policy.
