Why Do People Support Trump?

[pismoe]

Because of those candidates still left in the race Trump is still the best choice.
Unlike the others he is the only candidate that has said he will put America first

--------------------- America First , nothing else matters especially if you have kids .

 

[Dale Smith]

I see here and elsewhere people who otherwise identify and conservative or Republican or both. Yet if you asked them even 9 months ago, would you support a life long Democrat who favors single payer healthcare, favors use of eminent domain for private gain, favors abortion, and has never held office they would answer a resounding NO.
And yet here they are supporting Trump, who is all those things and more. A man with professed intentions to commit war crimes, an idiot on foreign policy, a serial adulterer, a man who plays footsie with racists.
How to explain this?

Conservatives don't want brown people in this country and Trump was the first one to make a big deal out of deporting the brown people so all is forgiven

How many thousands lost their pensions and savings because of Trump bankruptcies? Don't worry. We'll find out in the General Election.

Trump doesn't have the Federal reserve to let him avoid bankruptcy like the US government does. Where would all the entitlement programs be without the Feds being able to go into perpetual debt? They'd be bankrupt, just like Trumps companies. Only difference- Trump gave them jobs to start with.

Trump bankrupted numerous companies. How do you think he'd do with access to unlimited money?

Bankruptcy and foreclosures are built into the system of the fiat currency scam. USA.INC has declared bankruptcy 4 times in it's history and is currently owned by the IMF which is owned by international bankers and you don't even know it. Your lack of knowledge of how the system actually works totally astounds me because you seem to know so much about other stuff.

Bankruptcy existed long before we had a fiat currency.

Agreed, but bankruptcy and foreclosures will happen with a certainty under this fiat currency system because it is like a game of musical chairs. It's not always due to mismanagement but because you can't find a chair.

The countries with the highest standard of living are socialist.

List of countries by Human Development Index - Wikipedia ...

Please smoke more and eat more saturated fats liar.

Third world socialist countries have the highest standard of living huh? I guess that's why they're all migrating to America, a capitalist country. I don't see majority of people immigrating to socialist countries, but running from them.

The question is, how can anyone not support The Donald. To start off with, he is the only candidate not sponsored by the zionist neocon establishment. Add to the fact he says what most rational people think and you have a winning combination. As far as manufactured "issues" like abortion, that is irrelevant since that is technically a state issue.

You are on to something with your comment. Trump doesn't talk down to us like most politicians. He talks to us more like our coworkers, people at the bar, or even our family when discussing politics.

I was listening to the Rush show last week when he had a caller on. The caller said every time Cruz speaks, you expect him to break out in the Gettysburg Address or something. When you talk like that, it brings into doubt the sincerity of what you are saying.

No one did, fool. A few very large banks earned less profit that year.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Trump could have probably gotten a drone job with the government but he made things happen and met freaking payrolls and employed thousands of people and built things. What did Barry Hussein ever do besides try to follow the "dreams of my father" (who hated America) and undermine the freaking Country? What did Hillary ever do but trade her self respect for political power?

Well......Obama did destroy our healthcare. That's saying something......

The appeal of populism is that it gives "easy" answers to the problems that anger the ignorant masses.

What's complicated about illegal immigration? Simply enforce the law. That's the only thing you need to know.

For the first time in 5 1/2 years, I agree with everything in a Rabbi post.
Unlike Trump supporters that have claimed repeatedly that they were true conservatives, Rabbi has stayed the course of being a true conservative, unlike the weak-minded fakes who have shown they have zero convictions.
So, in the end, I have clashed with Rabbi and I don't like him at all, I think he's a dickhead, but I respect his convictions.

 

[WheelieAddict]

People support Trump because many have seen their standard of living plummet and realize most republicans are part of the problem. Trump's message about layoffs and jobs to China resonates with a lot of people who have had that happen to them and have been ignored by most politicians as they face hardships.

People are supporting him because they know every other politician will sell them out, are sick of it and desperate for good paying jobs, and he represents a change from that whether he can get it done or not.

The standard of living has been going down the tube for almost four decades and your hero Trump, has contributed to the problem by offshoring his apparel while American clothing facilities sit idle.
I swear, Trump supporters are so ill-informed they qualify as dumb-*****.

Understood, but where do we go from here? There are very few choices.

Asking this question about Trump was more valid when there were still a dozen or so candidates in the race. But now we are down to two. Who else can we support if we don't like Trump? Hillary? Sanders?

Since Ronald Reagan, I can't think of a time where I was happy with our candidate. The people I wanted to represent our party never made it to the finish line. You have to learn to live with these things.

Yet, I supported them because I knew of the disaster that would take place by ushering in a Democrat. I know what they stand for, and anytime Democrats get leadership, it costs me money, liberty or both.

He's never dodged sniper fire...

He's not under investigation by the FBI for jeopardizing national security, for crimes under the Espionage Act...

So yeah, let's all support someone who is clueless and hasn't answered pressing questions on real issues with any substance.

He's not a career politician who got his start being 'released' from a group for a major ethical breach...

---------------------------------- only problem with that is that instead of a million legals a year like it is now they just say that they'll build the wall and let in 10 million LEGALS a year . Gotta stop the immigration of ALL types IMO , no one has a RIGHT to immigrate to the USA . And the powers that be purposely import third worlders to further fracture the USA with their Diversity .
