It really isn’t about anyone “loving” Trump. It’s far more that he’s a much better choice than puppet Biden or anyone else on the Democrat side.

……it’s about a better choice on many fronts…..that’s it. Love doesn’t enter the equation.

History will judge him as a brat weaned on the teat of public funding while his daddy served as governor of Michigan, and who like others grew so accustomed to not working for a living that he made a career out of sucking that public teat as long as he could and now, he simply does the bidding of his corporate benefactors for perks. He's a worthless parasite.

Nobody loves Trump. We just passionately hate Biden, Harris, Hillary, Newsom, and all the other democrats.

Romney already did his part to get democrats elected in 2012.

Nobody loves Trump. It’s just a few of the more emotional posters here get very, very, very irked when someone has the bad manners to say something negative about him.

I hope you don’t mind, owl. TDS sufferer that I am, I felt compelled to make a small adjustment to your post.

What do you care who Romney plans to vote for? The guy does not even have sufficient support to run for reelection within his own very-red state.

The answer to that is obvious - - as indicated by WMSE’s shout out to me on this topic on which I had not (yet) commented: There is next to NOTHING of substance that you can say in favor of Donald Trump on is own merits here, other than that he is not as bad as Mitt Romney. Okay, point conceded.

Yet think about how truly pathetic this is. The core of Donald Trump’s reelection message is literally: “there are other people who don’t like me who are worse”.to define your own opinions, in a sense?

C’mon guys, we’re better than that.

Wait a second. Sincerely, not to be snarky, but don't you allow Donald effing Trump to define your own opinions, in a sense?

How so? By disliking him? Having an opinion about someone, even a strong opinion, is not the same as allowing someone to define your views for you. It is simply an opinion.

Go back to what WSME (one of the smarter posters on this forum) wrote - - that I need to give Donald Trump an “attaboy” for not appointing Mitt Romney to his cabinet. Is that really our standard for evaluating Donald Trump? Giving him credit when he DOESN’T do something stupid?

Should I also be expected to give Donald Trump an attaboy when he uses toilet paper to wipe his own butt? Joe Biden can’t do I that, so I suppose it is to Donald’s credit that he can. But you know who else can? Literally every other Republican running for office, Yet it is only Donald that I am expected to compliment for sanitary bathroom habits.

By calling me out for the Mitt Romney turd that Donald properly flushed down his toilet, that is equivalent declaring that my opinion has been dictated by someone who is not me. I don’t think that I’ve done that to anyone here.

I'm sorry, but your TDS is so bad that it affects your opinions about a lot of things. And you don't seem to see that. So we'll just have to disagree.

You seem like a good guy, 3A. But why is my posting demeanor the one that you choose to call out here? Have you reviewed the other posts on this thread?

Is it possible, that it is not me who is the one with the worse case of tunnel vision when it comes to Trump?

You mean me?

I don't give a sh!t about Trump. I can't believe you don't know that by now. I don't give a sh!t about any Repubs or any Dems. I want the two-party system to die.

I simply sound like a radical right-winger right now because the Dems have gone so far left, I have no other reasonable option. Both sides are corrupt, but the Dems want to destroy America as we know it.

I think Trump had good policies, but his combative personality caused the election to be close enough that shenanigans likely tipped the scales. And he is NEVER going to change.

I hope anybody but Trump gets the nomination, but it doesn't seem likely. Yet, there is no way I would vote for any Dem right now, so we're likely stuck with Trump.

BUT...that to me is a helluva lot better alternative than any damn body on the left at the moment.

Anyway, those on the left are blinded by loyalty to an ideology. I generally ignore them.

You stand out to me b/c you are certainly not that. But you are so obsessed with Trump that I feel you are ignoring the far bigger danger posed by the left.

Maybe not, but it seems to me that everything you post ties back to Trump, as somebody else mentioned. And yes, you also seem like a good guy, as others here sometimes vouch for you.

It's just the TDS from someone otherwise on the right stands out to me.

Andy, don't you know, if you don't hate Trump with all you mind and soul, you're a Trumplet and love him with all your heart.

That's AM's version of truth at least.

The evil corporate globalists laugh at us. Trump vs Braindead Joe. They've made a mockery of free elections, and it is to precondition us to a new form of national socialism dictated by the corporations to their lackies in government, paid for by PAC money which they charge back through their corporately owned networks for every dime they contributed. It truly is "the Big Bambooz-a-ler!"

You stand out b/c you and I obviously agree on most things political, but you can't seem to let go of bashing Trump and the "trumplets" long enough to spend any time directing your angst at the REAL problem.

That seems odd to me, and is why I say something to you now and then.

Exactly. If he had any political principals, Trump and Vivek would not be issues. The issue would be voting for someone (ie Democrats) who opposed virtually everything he has supported all his life.

C’mon guys, we’re better than that.

But, there is SOMETHING DONALD PROPOSED.

Trump wants to eliminate the Payroll Tax.

I will definitely vote for the Clown on that single issue.

I have always thought having employers take money out of an employee’s check was immoral on the Government’s part. You are having a person or entity provide a service for free. There is no compensation for the employer and furthermore it’s not what the employee signed on to work for.

A person and their taxes should be between that person and the Government alone. Employers have no business in the matter period.

I equate it to you having to take your bosses kids to school and back home but not be paid for it. In other words on your time.

The real irony is the ignorance of Americans. When the government taxes them more they expect their employers to make up the difference.

As someone here pointed out IDIOTS BEING GOVERNED BY BIGGER IDIOTS.

Since this is in reply to me, I’ll confirm: this is a sound proposal. I am in favor.

Exactly, you and I will still vote for the turd over another four years of the garbage we are dealing with now. It might be a horse pill to swallow but better than swimming through the sewage Democrats offer.

Comments appreciated 3A (and B.D. also).

This real world is not a bedtime story, Bartlett, in which mommy and daddy are only allowed to read from books that are on the “mean tweets” approved list. Nor is this forum (so far as I understand the rules). My Trump obsession is just as allowed as your little-girl crying over every post that offends your overly tender sensibilities.
