WTF Is Wrong With This Damned Country. Trump Approval Should Be Underwater. 1
Trump approval not being in the 10's at best. I am so pissed and sick that the polls are reporting as high as they are. We have a toxic sick evil racist criminally insane bastard for president. 2 He will wreck everything. 3 The world would be a better place if he keeled over. The media gives him too much credit. 4
1 Tens of millions of people are experiencing a different reality than you do, Nematode, from your recliner in your house on a golf course.
2 Your narrative is rejected and your Resistance is laughable.
3 Tell that to the workers who are seeing jobs sprouting up where Obama planted desolation and despair.
4 Based on past MSM behavior of reporting and polling Rs bleak in spring and summer, and then becoming more realistic and honest as the election approaches, the MSM may be trying to soften the blow of you much hyped
Blue Wave being a disappointment or inverted.

1. ...
It would be different if tRump’s ultimate demise - and that of Rs in general - was tied to his approval numbers, but it isn’t.

2. Thank you - the unjustified, entitled whiny discouragement is strong with this OP. (n/t)
Really? When did you first notice this? Weeks ago? Months? Years?

3. His supporters are living in a right-wing nut job news bubble.
Everything they hear is from right-wing radio and Fox News. They are only exposed to propaganda. And then they are told anything else outside that bubble is fake. They have literally been brainwashed.
:rotfl: This Trump supporter has not watch Fox News in ... ever. As for "right-wing radio", I hear 25-35 minutes of the KSFO morning drive show during my commute, and they do plenty of non-political topics; nothing on weekends. DUpipo would know the many conservatives do not at all resemble DUpipo stereotypes of conservatives if ... DUpipo stopped isolating themselves in their Prog bubble. I wonder when DUpipo "madaboutharry" last watched MSNBC or CNN. A couple of days ago? Last night (I'm posting this at ~6:20 AM PDT)? How many DU threads are about things said on
Morning Joe or Rachel MadCow's show or other MSNBC shows? Scores? Hundreds?

16. My boss admits that he votes Republican because of his Christian beliefs.
Since we don't talk politics since the election, I haven't asked him how voting for Trump fits into those beliefs.
"Admit"? What a tendentious and loaded word, :rotfl: ! How does Trump fit
my Christian beliefs? Since the context referenced was 2016, I would say poorly - three marriages and an earned reputation of womanizing. But going a little past the surface and considering the fuller context of the election, 2016 was a choice between Trump and Hillary. So How did Trump and Hillary compare?
Trump was an adulterer; Hillary defended and enabled an adulterer-rapist and demonized his victims.
Trump
said he would respect religious freedoms (and has angered DU-grade Progs by doing what he promised); Hillary told religious people that
they would
have to change, a very thinly veiled thread.
Trump grew his business, in part, by using government regs and breaks, legal, but sometimes leading to Solyndra type boondoggles/corruption. Hillary had/has zero experience in creating and growing a business, and ran the State Department and the Clinton Foundation in pay-to-play self-enriching mode. In a word, Hillary was and is massively corrupt.
From the view of my Christian beliefs, Trump was (and is) worrisome, but Trump has "failed" to live down to that potential. Hillary promised that her corruption, ineptitude, arrogance, and attacks on freedoms with which she disagreed would be how she would govern; she said nothing about putting her sexual predator "husband" on a leash.
