"How are the Trumpbots coping with Trump's apparent flip flop on illegals?"
Apparently some of them aren't taking it very well at all.
When Glenn decided to take a few phone calls from Donald Trump supporters, he probably wasn’t expecting one of the spookiest calls of his life. Nate from Virginia called in to Glenn’s radio program Wednesday to explain why he was voting for Trump. The call took an unexpected turn when Glenn asked about how trustworthy Trump could be with his promises.
The caller gave a disturbing ultimatum. “As long as he does the basic things, the foundational things, which is build a wall, he’s not going to have people like me coming after him,” Nate said. Watch the clip from The Glenn Beck Program: Trump Fan Makes Threats on Air Glenn sought clarification.
“Okay. So if he doesn’t build a wall like China, then he’s in trouble,” Glenn said. “It’s the wall that is your line?” The caller’s reply was dangerously threatening.
“Oh, he’s in so much trouble,” he said. “You don’t even understand the backlash of us, the ones who are so frustrated and angry and tired of all the political stuff. We’re going to come after him personally. You know what I mean? We’re going to get him.”
Glenn gave the caller every opportunity to clarify what he was saying. “I don’t know what you mean,” Glenn said. “Hang on. What does that mean?” He must have meant impeachment, right? Yes, but it didn’t stop there. Apparently, violence wasn’t out of the question for Nate.
“Well, I mean, hey, you yourself said he’s condoned violence in the past, hasn’t he?” came Nate’s reply.
Glenn couldn’t hide his shock at what he was hearing. The caller went on with a chilling threat: I’m just saying, he’s appealing to people who are very frustrated and angry. Their frustration and anger can only be subsided if he makes his promises true. And he has a lot on his shoulders. Maybe he himself doesn’t even know how much. But if he doesn’t come through for us, he’s going to have bigger problems, bigger problems than what you know. That was enough to make Glenn declare this the “spookiest” phone call he’d ever received.
I knew it was just a matter of time before the Trumpeteers became fed up with Trump. How? Trump's base of support is extremely right wing binary thinkers. Well, one can't in effect tell binary thinkers "we're gonna have a deportation force and send all the illegals packing because they are stealing jobs Americans should have" and then months later essentially say "we may not have a deportation force, but we're going to send them packing and then readmit the 'good ones.'"
Were Trump's base the moderate Republicans, a step left or right wouldn't be a big deal. But his base is a bunch of far right poorly educated people. They see everything, literally, only as comprehensively as can be addressed in a tweet or two; when someone tries to explain the full spectrum of a topic to them, they have only some sort of deflective reply. They are 100% certain about their infallibility on everything. Think they are smart, yet can't get any job that requires one to actually be smart.
There's just no reasoning with folks like that; it's their way or the highway. But for better or, more likely, worse, Trump has ingratiated and inured himself with those folks. At this point, Trump's only real option with them is to hope they "get over" the extreme promises he made. Of course, doing that makes him no different than all the other politicians that run for office, which, of course, is what Trumpeteers claim they are unable to abide.
You're nothing but an internet fart."How are the Trumpbots coping with Trump's apparent flip flop on illegals?"

The orange chickens come home to roost. Live by violent rhetoric......
"In 2013, the United States gave Mexico $51.5 million in foreign aid. Of that amount, $24.8 million, the largest segment, was designated for democracy, human rights and governance."
Makes a good down payment on the wall...
How can you still trust him to "build da wall"? He has a much better shot of deporting the illegals as he once promised since the laws are already in place to do so and he's backing off of that. Building a wall is the hard part because the legislation & funding isn't there."In 2013, the United States gave Mexico $51.5 million in foreign aid.

Trump supporters are smart and figured out that there is plenty of hyperbole in his speeches

Ahh, so him previously saying that we need to deport illegals, that they all "needed to go!", that other Republicans he was running against were soft on immigration because they don't want to mass deport was just...hyperbole.
Rightwinger liked your post.The man is taking a wizz all over you and what you THOUGHT he stood for. You gonna ask for more?
I told you all MONTHS ago this man had no principles beyond his own ego. The prospect of LOSING THE ELECTION is causing him to change his stance that won your support in the first place.
Hell DONALD HIMSELF told everyone that people were dumb enough to support him no matter what he did when he said he could shoot someone & still retain your support.
How do you feel about being taken for granted?
Says the person who will be voting for FUCKING HILLARY? You are a fucking piece of shit.I guess the silence speaks for itself. Far be it for anyone to dare attempting to hold him to his words.
I gotta work early so I'm out for now but I look forward to seeing your thoughts tomorrow at some point.

So we just give Trump a free pass to do or say whatever? Seriously?The man is taking a wizz all over you and what you THOUGHT he stood for. You gonna ask for more?

The alternative is Hillary.....Glad i could help
I don't get this mentality. When I made my ex wife mad I didn't point at my father or next door neighbor as an excuse. With this line of thinking no politician will ever be held to account.
For the record Trump's position on illegal immigrants is one of the biggest reasons I was considering him as they have a major impact on the industry I work in. So what now? I just say fuck it, trumps flip flops are meaningless?
They aren't, not to me.
The OP is just you with your perpetual whining because your pick didn't get the nomination. Grow a set for fuck's sake.IrrelevantRightwinger liked your post.The man is taking a wizz all over you and what you THOUGHT he stood for. You gonna ask for more?

And there it is. Can't articulate a rational response so resort to calling me a Hillary supporter which is in no way based in reality. That woman has 0 chance of getting my vote.Says the person who will be voting for FUCKING HILLARY? You are a fucking piece of shit.I guess the silence speaks for itself. Far be it for anyone to dare attempting to hold him to his words.

Oh, and before you say you are going to vote for fucking Gary Johnson, that is a fucking vote for FUCKING HILLARY.
I am sick of you. If you have financial problems and continues into the cuuuunts presidency, then you will only have your socialist ass to blame.
Fuck you and your bullshit.

Are you talking about the flip or the flop?I for one could care less if he flip flops as long as he does what he says he will do if he's elected.
