I ran into those types on b8 before CE, and I don't do much in terms of social media. I learned the term "cuck" during election season, although I had seen cuckold before, but only in porn video links, so I didn't make the connection.

thanosibe posted...Thanks for that. But as I said was this a majority of the people that voted for Nixon at the start. Like I feel there are far less people still supporting Trump than those that still support him. So lumping all voters/Republicans with Trump supports is being somewhat dishonest. Unless there's stats to tell me otherwise. Personally there's a huge gap in the people I know that voted for him and still support him.Bullet_Wing posted...ThanksUglyGod posted...Very good point. But as mentioned the partisan politics of the US have bred an us vs them mentality between the two parties that keep people judging and entire group by the vocal minority. And most of the time in a group the most vocal are the minority. So the sane party members of each party don't have to scream about internet typos and scoops of ice cream because the founding fathers set up a system to keep corrupt individuals out. How many people that voted for Nixon actually followed him down the rabbit hole? We might know better if there was internet in the 70's.Also, there's a pretty noticeable difference between just having conservative views and supporting Trump, so again let's not make this a right vs. left thing. --- I think I need a drink.

Several failed immigration bans Actually the ban was successful in the end, sooo the Paris agreement Not giving the worst polluters in the world money based on no guarantee that they would improve. draining the swamp of politicians and filling it with corporate america I hate to break it to you, but Trump is not special in that respect. Remember, you're trying to explain why Trump is bad in a way Bush, McCain, and Romney weren't. this whole abortion of a health care plan republicans had 7 years to prepare for So your complaint is that he is not repealing and replacing Obamacare fast enough.

cutting the parks budget and then asking for a pat on the back after making a donation to them So you despise anyone who favors less government spending. K then. failed promises left and right concerning the wall, coal miners, etc You should probably wait more than 6 months before declaring that not yet delivering on one of the biggest government projects in recent memory was a broken promise. Made all the travel ban haters look foolish when a month later it was given the go-ahead. wasting tax payer money because his wife did not want to live with him If the expense of presidential accommodations is a problem for you then why complain about not spending more on parks and rec? Isn't the latter WAY more expensive? tons of other shit i'm too lazy to type out Given how weak your other reasons were, I bet you can't actually think of any more.

I've always found it a bit amusing how some on the left will give examples of policies that have supposedly "failed" and use it as ammunition as to why Trump is so awful when they themselves don't support the policy.
The biggest laugh is when they talk about the travel ban and how Trump "failed" on it. He didn't fail. He's likely the only one who would have even entertained the idea let alone enact it. It's not his fault liberal activist judges tried to stop it (for now). At least it's in effect currently, in some form. Better than nothing at all, that's for sure. Illegal immigration is easily down over 50% since he took office. Literally slashed in half. I think recent reports actually put it down near 75%. He's allowing ICE and border patrol to actually perform their jobs. Sanctuary cities who knowingly harbor illegal immigrants, some of them having even committed crimes and violent crimes, are having the fire put to their heels with some already having folded their sanctuary policy. Crippling regulations are being cut, expensive and stifling bureaucratic agencies are being rolled back, and budgets are starting to get balanced. The Dakota access pipeline has been given the green light, buy American and hire American initiatives are being implemented. Actual pro-American policies are being put into place versus just being talked about year after year. Trump's doing quite a bit for only being in office for 6 months. --- "I think that man will be president right about the time when spaceships come down filled with dinosaurs in red capes" - Tom Hanks ...

He hasnt implemented any authoritarian policies because thank god for all of us he's SO FUCKUNG INCOMPETENT he's his own worst enemy. He doesnt have to implement policies to tilt us towards authoritarianism. We live in a country whose democracy relies on informal uncodified norms, with two parties behaving like two teams in a pick-up basketball game without any refs, both sides pledging to abide by the honor system. Every informal norm that's broken, every uncodified guardrail that's there to protect our democracy that gets smashed through, tips us further towards authoritarianism. The damage Trump does to our country will outlive Trump. and that's not even touching on Paris climate, deregulation, or any of the other awful causes Trump has advanced.
