I was a huge Trump supporter until 30 seconds ago, but thanks to reading your intriguing comment I saw the light and switched my vote to someone more reasonable. Thanks!

I can't wait for the Trump rally with Nation of Islam and KKK members.

Its like every shitty person in the US is coming out of the dark hole we left them in to praise Immortan Trump.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend?

I am from MA and we have a natural hatred for Romney. I am all about what he is pitching at Trump. Any other republicans want to jump the fence for just this one election, we got room in the anti bigot bus.

I'm still not convinced Trump supporters are totally on the "bigot" bus.

While I do think his positions are prone to alignment for those socially misaligned, I do think his strong political image and cross left/right political lines on topics make him a very alluring candidate for many.

I'm still comfortable with calling those passive bigots. Even if you don't actively think you should close the US borders to certain people on purely religious grounds (as an example), if you're still willing to accept that from your leader, that still makes you bigoted enough. And I wouldn't associate with a person like that.


I think the term bigot is a very improper use of word for Trump supporters. I think the "silent majority" of Trump supporters are the ones who kept quiet and lived in a society with completely different opinions (feminazis, political correctness, equality instead of fairness, ever increasing involvement in the government telling you how to live your life) that them, and now they are speaking up, to have their opinions heard. A lot of Trump supporters I know back in Canada are some of the most open-minded people I know, the "bigots" (I hate that word,close-minded) ones are the ones that believe Trump would destroy America after seeing him portrayed by the media for 5 minutes.


Sums it up.

Some people here are so caught up on their left-wing beliefs they literally can't understand what you wrote. They can't comprehend some of us want stop to government meddling in our lifes and can't even see why it is so bad. They literally don't see that most of the problems on the world are a direct result of big goverment.

War on drugs and War on terror, for example, are just government programs, and as such have caused horrible suffering and the opposite results of their intended purpose.

Socialized healthcare and the welfare system are other government programs. Are americans getting healthier? Is the economy doing better?

I also put money on him, will keep you updated on my bets.

Literally everyone understands what he wrote, they just don't agree.

The war on drugs and the war on terror are not things that Trump will stop.

Socialized healthcare and "welfare system". Literally americans are getting healthier but not as healthy as people with better socialized systems. And the economy is doing great, the median buying power has been going up steadily.

You're inventing a rhetoric that doesn't exist. I understand that you're tired of being lied to by the government, now you're lying to yourself. I get the anti-establishment sentiment but it's not a reason to drop critical thought altogether.

There are still many votes to be counted in several states, but from the numbers I'm seeing currently (both those reported and projections), Clinton overall largely surpassed her targets for the night, even though she came below them in a couple of cases (for example OK). Sanders is way below his targets (which obviously take into account his more favorable states down the road), and he didn't even manage to win Massachusetts.

Mathematically, this was a bad night for Sanders, and a great night for Hillary. She will be the nominee.

some of the trump comment is just a reflection of how reality is eg price on sex with models. it is this way because people are this way. the general state of society is keeping up appearances while ignoring the darker reality, and trump simply exposes the charade

I mean the reason Trump and Bernie are getting as much support as they are is because of their lack of big company funding. Trump is just the GOP version of Bernie, except the only difference is GOP doesn't have a Hillary Clinton to keep him in check.

Under the pretense that the religious views are anti-thetical to liberal US values.

Oh it's great then!

-_-

I mean, have you seen the studies done social positions on immigrant Islamic populations in Western countries?

That being said, I think Trump's point can be a lot more nuanced than anyone, or any media gives it credit.

Also, no joke, I've actually heard some one say "I'm glad Trump is running, therefore I know who on my Facebook friends lists are bigots and racists", in real life.

LMAO.

I had a friend in elementary school that I never saw after 5th grade and she's a trump supporter. I feel sort of sad about that.

I am from MA and we have a natural hatred for Romney. I am all about what he is pitching at Trump. Any other republicans want to jump the fence for just this one election, we got room in the anti bigot bus.

I'm still not convinced Trump supporters are totally on the "bigot" bus.

While I do think his positions are prone to alignment for those socially misaligned, I do think his strong political image and cross left/right political lines on topics make him a very alluring candidate for many.

I'm still comfortable with calling those passive bigots. Even if you don't actively think you should close the US borders to certain people on purely religious grounds (as an example), if you're still willing to accept that from your leader, that still makes you bigoted enough. And I wouldn't associate with a person like that.


I think the term bigot is a very improper use of word for Trump supporters. I think the "silent majority" of Trump supporters are the ones who kept quiet and lived in a society with completely different opinions (feminazis, political correctness, equality instead of fairness, ever increasing involvement in the government telling you how to live your life) that them, and now they are speaking up, to have their opinions heard. A lot of Trump supporters I know back in Canada are some of the most open-minded people I know, the "bigots" (I hate that word,close-minded) ones are the ones that believe Trump would destroy America after seeing him portrayed by the media for 5 minutes.


Sums it up.

Some people here are so caught up on their left-wing beliefs they literally can't understand what you wrote. They can't comprehend some of us want stop to government meddling in our lifes and can't even see why it is so bad. They literally don't see that most of the problems on the world are a direct result of big goverment.

War on drugs and War on terror, for example, are just government programs, and as such have caused horrible suffering and the opposite results of their intended purpose.

Socialized healthcare and the welfare system are other government programs. Are americans getting healthier? Is the economy doing better?

I also put money on him, will keep you updated on my bets.


I really have no idea why you think Trump cares about any of those things. The only candidate I can think of who even discusses those issues was berated by Trump as an ugly loser multiple times on stage.

A religious litmus test for country entry is pretty much as far from stopping the government meddling in our lives as you can get.

"blood coming out of her wherever"

What do you want him to say? Pussy? Cunt?

"deport all illegals"

Fully support this. I'm an immigrant and I want them all out.

"temporarily ban all Muslims until we can vet them"

Better than letting them in with no background checks. The nice thing about Islam is you can choose not to be Islamic. And when you choose to identify with an ideology that's linked to a modern wave of extremism. It's not a small percentage either.

"my critics will have problems when I'm in power"

"loosen libel laws"

The media is fucking disgusting right now. On both sides too, not just the left. They can say whatever they want, even if it isn't true or tenuously true at best, and get away with it because nobody will care when they come out to apologize. They need to be reined in.

"look at her face. are we serious?"

Love it. Fiorina's reaction was indeed hilarious.

"schlonged"

I want my president to use the same words I do, that's another reason to vote for him!

"hillary lacks strength and stamina"

Whenever I hear Hillary's voice I tend to agree. And she's not running a very energetic campaign outside her existing target demographics. Have you seen her vines? Atrocious. Needs to try harder. Low energy.

"it doesn't matter what the media writes as long as you have a hot, young piece of ass"

Totally true. If you have a hot guy or girl giving the news (preferably both) then you've got half your viewership finding it hard to turn away from the screen.

This is miss america and this is miss universe. I own them, and they're really gonna do a number on me.

Can't find this one in context. Please elaborate.

"Denounce the KKK? Hmm let me think about it"

Had no idea what was going on
http://nypost.com/2016/02/29/trump-i-would-have-denounced-kkk-but-cnn-gave-me-a-lousy-earpiece/

"Megyn Kelly's questions so hard"

You realize he was toying with her?

I mean the reason Trump and Bernie are getting as much support as they are is because of their lack of big company funding. Trump is just the GOP version of Bernie, except the only difference is GOP doesn't have a Hillary Clinton to keep him in check.

Right but the rest of Sander's platform is viewed as legitimate because it's based on the reality of other countries, whereas the rest of Trump's platform is complete lunacy. And some of you might argue that Sander's policies are lunacy as well because the US can't afford them, but the general direction he wants to go toward is at least tenable. Other much poorer countries are going there and they're thriving and rapidly catching up with the US in economic terms (and have long eclipsed it in other ways). No matter how often people say "trump says it like it is" (despite the fact that many of his statements are complete lies, but different ones from the ones the "normal" politicians say), it's still not realistic.

If you're tired of being lied to by politicians, how do you accept one who says he'll build a wall and make mexico pay (lol), or who will prevent muslims from entering the country (lol!!!!!). He's full of shit like everybody else, the difference is he's not politically correct in his bullshit.

Right because the media is just taking his quotes out of context.

I will take this since xDaunt is probably exhausted.
"blood coming out of her wherever" (must have just meant nose or ears right? LOL)

He meant "wherever."
"deport all illegals"

There's nothing wrong with that statement except that you politically disagree with it.
"temporarily ban all Muslims until we can vet them" (i.e. "hey are you a terrorist? no? okay good")

The same with this one.
"my critics will have problems when I'm in power"

Hot air.
"loosen libel laws"

Not the president's job, don't worry.
"look at her face. are we serious?" (please ignore that my face was so flawed I got plastic surgery and hair surgery, and use spray tans LOL)

He's also made fun of Ted Cruz's face.
"schlonged"

What's the problem?
"Hillary lacks strength and stamina"

Do you expect him to compliment his main opponent?
"It doesn't matter what the media writes as long as you have a hot, young piece of ass"

I genuinely wonder whether you were alive in 1991 when he said that.
"This is miss america and this is miss universe. I own them, and they're really gonna do a number on me."

When they dumped ice on his head for ALS...?
"Denounce the KKK? Hmm let me think about it"

Maybe, and I'm just spitballing here, the media should stop giving interviews to the KKK just to stir up shit for news stories and bait a candidate.
"OMG megyn kelly's questions so hard"

Is that a direct quote?

LMAO you are grade A clown if you even tacitly say "hey Trump supporters are just the silent majority, nbd, they're not PC and stuff".

If they're the loud minority, where have they been all these years, and why can't the rest of the field get more people to vote for them?

Under the pretense that the religious views are anti-thetical to liberal US values.

Oh it's great then!

-_-

I mean, have you seen the studies done social positions on immigrant Islamic populations in Western countries?

That being said, I think Trump's point can be a lot more nuanced than anyone, or any media gives it credit.

Shit, I've stayed in one of his resorts before... FUCK. TO BE FAIR, I stayed before he announced his candidacy, do I get a social reprieve?

Also, no joke, I've actually heard some one say "I'm glad Trump is running, therefore I know who on my Facebook friends lists are bigots and racists", in real life.

LMAO.

I had a friend in elementary school that I never saw after 5th grade and she's a trump supporter. I feel sort of sad about that.

Was talking to a black friend of mine, and he had liked this Trump page on facebook. This mutual acquaintance of our came up to him and asked if he really supported Trump with a pretty accusatory tone. He blew it off as "oh I just think Trump is hilarious to watch"; I legit could tell she was like a hairs width away from calling him an Uncle Tom, but then started talking about how great Bernie Sanders was, and why Hillary Clinton was a "cunt".

Couldn't he just not make up a stupid line about a woman probably being on her period? It's tactless and juvenile.
