Questions for Trump Supporters, 09/21/2025

[Mac1958]

This hits on another important point. I believe Donald Trump is the strongest president ever, rivaling Ronald Reagan, who was more polished and adept at handling people because of his acting skills. Trump is a "New York" real estate tycoon and I use that term to connote one who is brash, arrogant and gets his way in negotiations. Here he has almost entirely eliminated illegal immigration, done away with wasteful foreign aid that was a cash cow for liberals, gotten billions for the treasury in tariffs, is crushing the drug trafficking from Venezuela and other cartels, will make Antifa a terrorist organization, bringing back jobs to citizens instead of illegals, and we want to believe he is a bad man because some in his own party don't like his style. Or worse, yet we want to listen to others "in authority" like TV anchors and politicians like Hakeem Jeffries, Pelosi, Swalwell, Schiff, etal?

You want "style" over substance and think he should be less brash and harsh? We had that under Jimmy Carter and Biden, two of the worst presidents of all time. I want a president who other countries and people hate because they know they can't push him around

Different Americans have different perspectives, life experiences and priorities. Roughly half the country doesn't think like you do. It doesn't make them wrong, it just makes them different than you.

I prefer an American government that functions with communication, collaboration and innovation (the way our Constitution was created). That way, far more Americans have skin in the game, and the weaker party is not trying to sabotage the stronger party.

And I believe in decency, honesty, intelligence and maturity from our leaders. That is the "substance" that I prefer. I believe that thinking that one's tribe has all the answers is egotistical, shallow and counter-productive. Unfortunately, there appear to be fewer and fewer who think like that. That's the way it goes, I guess.

Lies are not facts....

Lies are not facts.... No matter what political party is saying them.

 

[sartre play]

Let's just cut to the bottom line, shall we?

I think you people know that many of us who criticize Trump and MAGA are not lefties or "commies" at all. That we exist across the political spectrum. And I think that writing us all off as lefties is simply your defense mechanism to avoid admitting it.

We include conservatives, liberals, moderates and independents. Republicans, Democrats and Unaffiliateds. I just want to see if any Trumpsters here are willing to admit this obvious fact, or if you're going to just keep playing this game with yourselves.

The predicted insults are providing an excellent verification.

And those who support SOME REPUBLICAN PARTY STUFF, Are not NATZIS.
SAME as some who support some DEMOCRAT STUFF are not COMMIES.
BALANCE, Working together, ... HOW our country was set up TO RUN.

 

[IDIOCRACY]

A few facts first:

• All day every day on USMB, anyone who criticizes the current President is assumed to be a radical/evil left wing communist who want to destroy America.
• At the same time, there is a long list of Republicans who have publicly criticized him as no group of Republicans ever has. Clear, strong rebukes.
• This group includes many of his former staffers, former Cabinet officials, former Generals, former Attorneys, and a wide rage of conservatives.
• It also includes his current Vice President, current Secretary of State, and current Secretary of Health & Human Services.

So just a few questions:

• Do you realize this? Do you understand this? Did I say anything that is incorrect?
• What do you think about when you review those facts?
• Do you believe it's possible that people who are not Left wing have a serious problem with what is happening, regardless of the politics?

I realize many responses will just be personal insults, and that's fine. But it would be nice to gain a little understanding of your thought processes on this.

I think that was their intent. But the two party system is killing us. It punishes candidates who seek consensus. It rewards fear and division.

Because a spelling mistake is so much more important than being part of the discussion.

You didn’t want to answer the questions. That’s okay.

<ahem>

whatever Qs you may have had in the past, on this very thread, or at any point in the future can easily be answered by one simple meme:

thank you for your attention to this matter.

What you neo-leftists are going to have to stop avoiding is that Trump is not overwhelmingly loved by the right and is often correctly criticized. I don't like his incursions into Iran and Venezuela and think he has bigger issues at home to deal with. I don't like his brash style and I certainly wouldn't trust him in a room alone with my daughter or to walk my dogs. It is easy to criticize Trump. What you neo-leftists will never understand is that we don't love Trump, we can't stand you neo-leftists. It is you friggin' morons that make Trump look better in our eyes. You want us to stop preferring Trump? Give us someone better.

... that will almost certainly be ignored.

Because it doesn't fit their prescribed narratives. And it doesn't make them feel good about being so obnoxious and annoying.

Y bother when u lie rt. Out of the gate?

Leftists have a serious credibility problem.

Thats not called a spelling error, I thought u were a left intellect?

Oh thats right, u r

/-----/ Try asking a straight and honest question, rather than your loaded hyperbole.

Mac1958 is a fanatic trump hater

Everything he posts is dripping with venom toward trump

For him to present himself as a reasonable, non partisan person who merely questions a few trump policies and is mercilessly attacked by rabid MAGAs is laughable

 

[Mac1958]

And you illustrate the point of the thread for me.

I can always depend on Trumpsters. Good stuff!

The trump haters are often on the wrong side of the issues so they attack trump’s character instead of his policies, which are popular
