Permission. He gave people permission with no consequences.

u/Casingdacat 15h ago

It’s more than that. His followers have been brainwashed and have adopted his attitudes and manner of speaking in so many different areas. Here’s just one example. ā€œFake newsā€. If it goes against what their idol has told them is true, or if a truth makes them feel uncomfortable, it is ā€œfake newsā€. Another one would be his extreme rhetoric regarding, and obsession with, undocumented immigrants. Another one is swallowing all of his lies whole, no matter how far-fetched or ludicrous they may sound. There are a lot more. Those are the ones I could come up with off of the top of my head.

I’m a born-again/saved Christian, and unlike many who call themselves that, yet hypocritically support Trump and excuse all that he does, I have never done so and have always seen him for exactly who he is. I’m non-political at this point, meaning that I support no person or party. I feel like I’m a lot better off this way, because I’m not allowing it to cloud my judgment by mixing politics in with my Christianity. That’s created so much of the mess we now find ourselves in and yes, it’s also revealed what’s in the hearts of many of these people. I avoid talking to a lot of Christians where I live in the south here, in a very red state. I know that we’d disagree on so many different things. I do have a friend that I may challenge on some things here, but we still love each other and it hasn’t destroyed our friendship. If I were to go to church here the issue would be the same, because I would not be able to refrain from questioning why anyone who calls him or herself a Christian, in light of all that he’s said, done, and sanctioned that is about as far from being Christ-like as one can get, would support him.

I wish that I could find other Christians around here who see Trump for who he is and who also don’t support him at all. We really need to speak out and make other Christians aware of how badly deceived they’ve been, and that they are allowing it to go on, too. One person may get booted from a church, but it’s a whole lot harder to do that with a group.

I’m non-political

This is such bullshit. This is the shield you're using so that when this asshole is gone you can go back to openly voting for other Republicans without feeling bad about yourself.

2

u/Casingdacat 14h ago

You’re assuming an awful lot about me here, without even knowing me. Unless there are some major and radical changes in the Republican Party, I will not vote for any of them at all. The last time I voted for a Republican was when Romney ran against Obama. That was in 2012. They don’t seem to care about anyone but the rich, at the expense of the poor and vulnerable among us. The fact that they’ve even ever supported Trump and his mess would mean that I’d never have any desire to vote for any of them. There’d need to be a major overhaul of the entire party for me to even consider voting for any of them.

We all have self-interest in mind. The thing is MAGA doesn't grasp that they're not on an island and are for fact in a great sweeping society where one's interests are best supported by supporting each other.

But because for whatever their reasons Trump supporters hate America and Americans, I offer them nothing in the way of shared interests and really, genuinely, because they are beyond rehabilitation I want to see them removed from the US.

I'm tired of sharing space with people who mean to be the worst version of themselves.

This is part of the problem... the belief that this is a dream/nightmare/aberration of some kind, and eventually the country will come back to its senses and right itself.

This is who America always was. The dream or illusion was what's been pushed on everyone aggressively since the 1950s. That was the lie.

You have woken up. This is reality. The world "before" was the dream, and people need to act accordingly.

I'll give him lots of credit in the future assuming he breaks healthcare to the point we need universal healthcare.

Assuming the corruption exposed now leads to safeguards on money in politics and executive powers.

Assuming the depravity towards immigration leads to real reform in legal pathways to citizenship.

Assuming the extreme capitalism experiment fails and brings real conversation around the role of government for regulation and balancing the scales of power through taxation and representation.

Until then, no credit.

There's an old black and white sci fi movie called Forbidden Planet. The advanced culture that lived there built a machine that could make every dream, every wish come true. It was a dead planet. The machine created a monster that tapped into the worst thoughts of its creators. The Great Recession and the Covid pandemic put us all through the meat grinder and into a world of hurt. The machine of democracy spit out the monster Trump in response. He taps into the worst of us. Our anger, hatred, and self-centered greed. Hopefully, our better angels can rise up and rescue us before it's too late.

He convinced anti-tax republicans to accept and cheer for massive new consumer taxes (tariffs) via executive orders.

He convinced republicans outspoken for decades against government handouts that the promises of DOGE checks, tariff checks, and checks to bribe a certain way to vote are somehow a good thing.

He convinced tens of millions of Americans that they no longer have to accept or believe any form of news or information that they disagree with or don’t understand and can simply label it as ā€œfake newsā€ and sit proudly in their bubble of willful ignorance.

He dragged our country into another senseless and corrupt war in the Middle East based on lies and disinformation - despite his campaign promises and people voting for him based on his promises to never go to war again. And now the gullible flock has been convinced it was necessary despite the contradictory and obviously misleading statements from the regime prior to the start of the war.

The only nation that can defeat America is America, Trump saw the divisions in America and exposed them, use them and profited from them, his whole life, America politics isn't really about much more than Money, who has it and how they use it.

Freedom, justice and the America dream, are all wonderful things, but not really real anymore, America is less free now than at any other time, Justice is governed more by how much you have and less about guilt and innocence, and what is the American dream?

America has been eating itself for the last 25 years, exporting jobs, selling tech and outsourcing anything it could, an economy based on sales and consumers.

Short terms views and policies, failing infrastructure, stagnanting scientific research, reduced ownership of production, financial services and a loss of morale value.

Trump saw that, understood that a man with his record was no longer blocked from high office, how he can walk over freedoms, free speech and ignore legal boundaries because of the division, red or blue means nothing when it no longer politics.

America was an amazing idea, most nations are free, but politicians like to point at the few that aren't and distract with those.

Agreed! He's the worst President a piss poor leader, criminal, greedy, narcissistic, and a pathological liar...BUT indirectly he has exposed millions of Americans for who they really are. Thank you President Trump...now we just need you out of the White House permanently.

Yeah, except the people that need to see the mirror’s reflection the most have it backwards…lots of MAGA think anyone calling them out harbors hatred and intoleranceĀ

He just seems like the typical American tbh

His administration opened the basement door and let out all the derelicts.
Trump and the GOP have given psychopaths their time to shine because they are not being held accountable.

He has also shown us that all the systems, checks & balances, all the tax paid/funded policies to keep the global economy in balance for the global benefit of all mankind ( as we’ve been lead to believe). The un, nato, WHO, WTO, just all of them mean absolute bollox. One man gave license to warmongers & the billionaires that it was open season for cart blanched legalised crime & they jumped at the chance & nothing is being done by any organisation to stop what we cal all see is decimating safety & humanity for a quick buck.

Covid alone would have done this too

He’s the manifestation of everything wrong with the western world (rampant local and federal corruption, self consuming corporatism, increasingly dominant oligarchic lobbying, etc.) Trump isn’t a good leader or person but if it wasn’t him someone else with the same mentality would be in his place. Someone so ridiculous in order to distract from the institutional flaws I mentioned. He’s a lightning rod who’s being payed off and it’s working very well.

If only that mirror would inspire those that spew hatred, bigotry and self-interest to examine their own beliefs and actions.

He also showed us what our politicians have been doing for years while in office. Doesn’t matter which party, Bush, Clinton, Obama, Biden, They all got richer in office. They all protected their interests and promoted their families and cronies. Trump was just arrogant enough to do it without hiding it.

He’s the guy that started the hatred between the Republicans & Democrats. And still spreading hate.

u/oldedude558 11h ago

I concur. The mirror sucks for many.

Yep. I’ve lost pretty much my entire family over his shit.

Healthcare is available. People just don't like their low cost no cost options. It's the same old story.

u/No-Koala1918 11h ago

If you didn't know this before Trump, you weren't paying attention.

u/mad597 11h ago

Problem is its about 30% of the population and they don't care how racist and ignorant they are

u/Winter-Resort4711 11h ago

We have to pick the lesser of two evils. Trump versus Somalian pirates and terrorists.

u/atreeismissing 10h ago

About 2/3 of the country. Everyone here commenting on Maga/GOP voters, but the non-voters who were too selfish or apathetic to do anything about it are just as self-interested and willing to allow bigotry and hatred as those that voted for it.

u/drunkdad14 10h ago

It also shows how bullshit your political system is. This crap would never fly in other " first world " countries.

He also reduced carbon emissions by like a billion tons a year and massively accelerated the global green energy transition. But that was by accident

u/Hbananta 9h ago

He turned on the lights in a dark room and let us see the audience is.

I didn't need to destroy our economy relationships and murder us citizens to know that the dumbest in our country are also bigoted and hateful.

It also showed how subservient and scared to act most Americans are and how quickly those precious amendments can be ignored without consequence.

u/Emergency_Salt_2103 8h ago

No....he allows them the freedom to crawl out of their caves to be the worst version of themselves. Like a father telling their timid child it's ok to moleste other girls...it's acceptable to be that person.
