Does Loving Your Country Mean That You Have to Love Trump?

[ChristisKing]

I still have mixed feelings and doubts about Trump right now, but I'm just a little confused why an awful lot of MAGAS seem to think that if you're not on the Trump train your an American hating left-wing leftist.


The reason why I bring this up is not just because of reactions I've had on the message board that I actually have things that I dislike about Trump now (although I still have likes) and that I'm uncertain of, but because of the dirty looks when I wear my hat. I mean it's not even saying whether I support Trump or not, so why do people have such a problem with it? Do they automatically tie it to being pro-Trump anyways?

1: Did loving your country mean you loved Obama?
2. Did loving your country mean you loved Biden?

A good topic.

I would submit, no, not at all. They are completely unrelated.

NO.

Doesn't mean you have to hate him either.

Heck no and you're actually one of the people who hasn't attacked me due to some criticism that I've given towards Trump so thank you for that. I just don't know why I get all of the dirty looks for showing patriotism today though, so that's the point of this topic. I just wanted to acknowledge that part.

 

[ChristisKing]

NO.

Doesn't mean you have to hate him either.

And I don't. I just don't trust him as much as I used to. He says something one minute and another thing the next to the point where I can't believe anything he says anymore.

We have had decent exchanges. I hope it lasts and is not messed with. Trump is attacked all the time. And to me, his bragging and his ego is safe to discuss. His bragging on a bus to me is moot. Men often brag and as often lie. IF a woman is beautiful, men often brag she is an easy lay. I dated a lot of beautiful women and if others dated them, they would brag they had sex with them. While some did, others lied.

OK, now you discuss his lying. Tell us what lie you think he told really upset you?

The left have ALWAYS hated America, long before Trump ran for office or the MAGA movement.

The America hating left and the CORRUPT just in it for the money scams Democrats were the perfect pairing. They have now added the depraved sicko pervs to their nasty coalition.

 

[Seymour Flops]

No, you don't have to love Trump to love the USA.

But a lot of the worst Trump bashers are people who were Dixie Chick types "embarassed" to be Americans long before Trump switched parties.

No, just the real estate. America of old is gone. We have gangsters and lying conmen running things now.

Well, if you love America then you agree with Trump's Make America Great Again policies for the most part. No, you don't have to love Trump or agree with everything he says. A sane person knows nobody can agree with everybody all the time. So Trump says some 'bad' things, so what? His actions in regard to his vision and his policies certainly show he is the most pro-American POTUS of our lifetimes.

 

[ChristisKing]

OK, now you discuss his lying. Tell us what lie you think he told really upset you?

His lock her up crap that he dropped as soon as he got elected... Promising to release the Epstein files and get people arrested, confessing to be a Bible reading Christian one moment and thinking highly equal to Jesus and praising Allah the next, promising to lower grocery and gas prices and get our country out of debt,... Those are just the ones that come to mind at the moment though.

He also promised us no new wars but I can see why he attacked Iran now since they were getting ready to use Nukes. I think that I got all of those unkept promises and lies right though. Anyways, I'm getting off topic.

Oh yes I owe you an apology about Trump's response to Iran in order to stop them from using Nukes, but what about all of the unkept promises that I posted about above?

 

[ChristisKing]

Also if Trump wasn't as focused on Israel as he is right now he possibly could accomplish everything that he promised in his campaign.

 

[task0778]

And I don't. I just don't trust him as much as I used to. He says something one minute and another thing the next to the point where I can't believe anything he says anymore.

True. I don't trust anybody in Washington anymore.

 

[ChristisKing]

I will also add this. I think that the war in Iran is what escalated inflation again, but the problem is that Trump bit off more than he can chew and I still am on the fence about the whole entire Epstein files thing because if Trump were innocent and he knew for a fact that he was innocent, why was there such a fight involved?

 

[ChristisKing]

If Trump was trying to protect friends of his it would be more understandable, but I personally still would put the safety of women and children over our friendship.

 

[LA RAM FAN]

NO.

correct but it ALSO does not give trump worshippers the right to come on and say you have TDS syndrome like they have with the op just because she does not like some of trumps policys.
