Is not liking Trump reason enough to vote against him?

The economy was growing under Trump. Since when have liberals cared about deficits? Maybe you should check on our national debt? What are we at? 35 trillion and counting?

Trump had nothing to do with Covid. Trump tried to keep the country open, democrats shut it down and THEN blamed Trump for the ensuing loss of jobs.

If it weren't so fucking ridiculous and disingenuous I'd laugh.

Above is the blob...

Criticizing a GOP governor of what was then a Red State for re-opening too early.

Care to explain your bullshit statement?

To the “change-the-subject-mobile” Batman!

Why would I vote for a man I don't like or trust.

Because that was ONE FUCKING MONTH into coronavirus. It started late March, that was 3rd week of April. Trump just didn't want shit shut down for years like liberals did.

That is why I am NOT voting him. He wants to be dictator. Fuck OFF!

Nixon? LOL! He was a crook.

His only transgression was to try and cover up for some well meaning staff that thought he needed help to get reelected. He got reelected even with that hanging over his head. And to say that Nixon was a crook, he's a choir boy in comparison to both of todays presidential candidates. His only real sin was lying to congress just like Clinton.

But he--your blob-- didn't want the states to re-open.

And it was a red state--Georgia that voted for the blob in the previous election--that was closed.

It wasn't liberals and it wasn't your blob saying that the states should re-open. You're wrong on both counts.


How does it feel to have the doors blown off of your argument before your very eyes?

I ask this question seriously,

No you don't.

We have had numerous pandemics try and come into the US. Before Covid, the only real successful on dated back to 1918. Yes, the Spanish Flu actually originated in the US and is, today, known as Influenza which we have a cure for now. That was taken care of by isolating, masking. That should have been how Covid was handled right from the very first. WE have had numerous try and come to the US (mostly from passengers of Airlines and Cruise ships). The problem with Covid was it was isolated much too late. It should have had the incoming passengers quarantined for at least 2 weeks like we did N1H2 which was an imported version of Influenza. It was isolated and the Flu Shot was created to counter it. That flu shot is administered once a year in people like me. WE keep it quarantined so you don't die from it. I don't expect you to understand because you are just plain stupid.

Oh yea, more people died from Covid under Biden than Trump, but Trump did it wrong.

Yea, fuck off loser.

 

[scruffy]

I despise him. He is a Fascist and wanna be dictator

So what? So is every politician that ever lived.

Only the shallow and ignorant would put personality traits over substance, policy and action.

tRump let the genie out of the bottle. And Biden put that genie back in the bottle AFTER it killed a million people. When tRump decided (late to the party) to only allow US Citizens to fly into the US without medical testing and no isolation that allowed the pandemic to go hog wild.

In 1969, the protocols of testing and isolation were put into place for the H1N1 virus and very few people were even aware it was going on at the time. You got off the plane or the ship and were immediately isolated for 2 weeks while being medically attended to. No fuss, no muss. And even then, over 248K died. And that was with all the pandemic protocols in place. You know, the ones that tRump toss out.

So there is the facts. You can no longer say you are ignorant. Now, if you continue this nonsense, you prove that you are just plain stupid.

Is not liking Trump reason enough to vote against him? I ask this question seriously, because I see a logical gap in this oft-mentioned rationale. Specifically, how is not liking Trump an objective reason for preventing him from another successful term in office? If democracy didn't end during his first term, why would it end during his second term?

It seems to me that opposing Trump on that basis is more a narcissistic fear of his success rather than actual fear of his failure. Hell may have no fury like a woman scorned, but in this world nothing creates greater enmity than exposing the fallacy of long held beliefs. As the evidence mounts, many people will double down on these beliefs and lash out at those who question them. Are you one of those?

Depends on why you don't like him. I don't like him because he's lazy. There was very little actual work done by Trump. A ridiculous among of his time was spent rage tweeting in 'executive time' rather than taking care of the work of the nation.

If someone working at McDonald's spent 3 hours a shift on his phone, he'd get fired in the first day. I expect more from a president that I would a McDonald's employee.

I don't like Trump because he's a liar. He's profoundly, pathologically dishonest. He lies even when it will do him no good at all. You can't trust anything he says. Even when his lies hurt people and result in attacks on the capitol, bomb threats, threats against officials, evacuations of schools, he'll still cling to the lies.

I don't like Trump because he's increasingly boring. Even his own supporters are wandering off from his rallies.

I don't like Trump because he's whiny. He's always the victim. He's one of cuckiest people I've ever heard of, always being the victim, never taking responsibility for his own actions. He takes credit when things go well, he blames others when things go wrong. That's the behavior of an entitled piece of shit. Not a grown ass man.

I don't like Trump because he's called for the termination of the constitution.

Surely there's something in there that would motivate a person to vote for someone other than Trump.

Yes, disliking Trump is a good reason not to vote for him. Character counts.

The Spanish Flu and the Chinese Flu pandemics both ended because of herd immunity, not isolating and masking. That is why few people take the Covid vaccine anymore. The Chinese Flu was specifically dangerous to elderly people with preexisting conditions. They are the ones who should have been quarantined, not the general population.

While they didn't really understand why the masks worked, it was a law in may places. 5 bucks would be about 100 today. Not something everyone could afford to waste. What was discovered in 1969 was that the masks helped to lower the spreading of the disease by keeping the splash affects from spreading it. No, it doesn't prevent a person from catching the pandemic but it does slow down the passing of it from person to person.
