If you couldn’t figure out what Trump is in 8 years, then you’re either a fucking moron or just an evil asshole who is after personal benefits.
My mother still thinks he’s basically harmless. We have a no politics rule because his first term nearly made me cut her out of my life.
That might be the right way to deal with someone who supports ending democracy.
This is basically the same for me. During covid my parents driftet into the conspiracy theories and never got out(tbf I also kinda got into that shit, but somehow got out of it, a bit after it was undeniable, that the vaccination was safe). After about 1.5 years of constant discussions they stopped talking about that shit in my presence because nobody of us liked the constant fights. Nowadays I also always try to stay away from their “friends” (they now almost exclusively have social interactions with other conspiracy theorists), because its much healthier for me to not be forced to listen to their dumb bullshit.
Don’t forget hateful racists
They’re prob in the Evil bucket of trash
Sadly the world is full of morons. As the late, great George Carlin said:
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.
There are a lot that just want to see others hurt, too. Even if they get zero benefits.
I don’t understand how military people support republicans. It’s their faults we lost so many children in the Middle East. As well as their fault for how little we are taking care of our soldiers who come home.
War and using the its personnel as cannon fodder is fully bipartisan
The Iraq war would not have happened if Al Gore was president. Bipartisan my ass.

Is that all you got? Really though, it was a pet project for bush and cheney. There’s pre 9/11 statements that suggest they were brainstorming ways to go to Iraq. The fact the WMD shit was never prosecuted is simply a failure of our political and legal systems.
There also pre911 data showing the government was aware of the potential threat of destroying WTC during Clinton. Gore would have gone to war
Are you talking about this? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1993_World_Trade_Center_bombing
No wars were started after the first WTC attack
In Afghanistan? Sure, I’d accept that any administration faced with the successful WTC attack would likely have ultimately reacted a similar way. Though there is some data suggesting that intelligence agencies were a bit off due to the delay in transition from the Florida indecision, so a more decisive election either way might have caused the agencies to prevent the 9/11 attacks. Maybe there’s a case to be made of it being handled better, but I can’t think of any data to suggest either way how that hypothetical would have gone.
However, the thread specifically mentioned the Iraq war, which was a distinctly Bush/Cheney adventure. Even in the vague “Middle East” starter, it would have been fewer, by virtue of at least limiting the engagement to Afghanistan. Iraq would have been left to its own devices in a Gore presidency.
There was the option of going in with special Forces units only; essentially hunting and killing bin-Ladn without attacking the Taliban directly. Bush chose regime change because he wanted to build a pipeline across the country.
Gore would not have gone to war in IRAQ. That is ridiculous.

Removed, civility.
Look at the vote counts. 🤷

What choice do they really have? If they believe their oath of allegiance to the Constitution.
Just saying
Foreign AND domestic, you say?
These guys claim Trump is ill-informed, but how many classified documents do they have?
I’m pretty sure he hasn’t read any of the ones he’s had piled up in the bathroom.
You don’t need to read them to sell them.
I’ve yet to see evidence trump can read at any comprehension level, so while he has many documents, only Kid Rock and a handful of foreign spies have been able to read them.
Wow, the RINO population has exploded. All that so called climate change is obviuosly good for plants/grass that they eat.
/s
They are being a lot more polite than i would
All those Men and Women who Served and Defended our Country are WOKE! I’m Supporting the Man who Made up an Illness to NOT Serve and then Called our Veterans Losers and Suckers!
“he dumb”
How do you convince regular folk who’re just trying to get by and make sense of the world? They don’t even know what they stand to lose by voting in unsafe people like most Republicans
By making sure they do not need to try, but can be sure they can get by.
It is not that he’s ill informed, it is that he is willfully ignorant and utterly dishonest when the truth and facts don’t benefit him. Which given how much he lies, is pretty much all the time. It must be so be some miracle he didn’t try to bomb an ally (that we know of) and I can’t think of one good thing he did while in office that he wasn’t compelled to do so by laws, precedent and his few remaining competent staff preventing him from fucking it up.
