People wonder how Republicans can still support Trump?

 
...I mean, after all the bullshit that has come out against him over the course of the last few years...

Are you surprised? Even here on DU, the home of progressive, liberal politics, we've got long-standing members defending blackface as just a 'costume' and now other DUers questioning the victim of a sexual assault by suggesting she may have had it coming because, gosh, who'd go into a hotel room of a man without expecting to have a dick rammed down their throat?

We're no better than the right. Let's drop all pretense on this bullshit. We'll defend ours just as vehemently as they defend Trump. We'll excuse their indiscretions, defame the supposed victims of those indiscretions and dismiss any wrongdoing for politicians we like - or need.

Trump exists because of the same mentality borne out of a mindset exactly like this.

We'll go to great lengths to defend the indefensible when it comes to partisan politics. It's sickening. If your defense of a Democrat sexually assaulting someone is that the woman should have known what to expect, you're no better than the Republicans you deride for supporting Trump.

How could anyone support a racist sexual assaulter like Trump?

Oh, jeez, I don't know!

I am sure you had no problem defending Bill Clinton.  Hypocrite.

* DUpipo supported BHO when he hid his assault on Americans' healthcare behind, "If you like your ...".

* DUpipo supported WJC the serial assaulter of women.

* DUpipo supported HilLIARy, who enabled and defended her rapist husband.

Then again, so much of "the bullshit that has come out against (Trump)" has proven to be just that, bullshit, with no basis in truth.
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 50% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Forty-nine percent (49%) disapprove.

Let's see here, Trump has kept just about every campaign promise except one and he's working on that.  This is despite being trashed daily by the MSM, SJW news sites, liberal news sites, the Justice Department, Intelligence Departments, Democrats, and never-Trumpers.

Not too shabby if you ask me.

Don't sell yourselves short DUchebags.  You much worse that the right.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

Well, if bullshit is just that........
“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
