What is the right way to think about Trump voters?
I vacillate between sheer rage at them and forgiving them, for they know not what they've done.
I feel like we spend so much time worrying about STUFF-- so many stories and subplots and issues and nuances. All these important issue we as liberals care about. How many articles have we read and dissected in this campaign? And then we have this massively important election, where all that shit gets thrown out the window and we elect the most incredibly ignorant obvious conman possible. A man who several major newspapers wrote articles about, not simply not endorsing him, but saying that he was DANGEROUS and DO NOT ELECT HIM. And the American voters went ahead, like bumbling toddlers, voting for him. Except these people are adults and largely lead normal even successful lives.
It's enraging. And I don't whether to be mad at this, or just feel sorry for them, or just what.
How about as your conquerors and protectors of the Republic! :lol:

1. I'm in the angry and disgusted mode towards them
I`m in the mock and laugh at you mode.

2. I do NOT forgive them. I suspect the vast know exactly what they've done.
Willful ignorance doesn't wash with me.
Yes,we prevented tyranny.

6. I don't feel sorry for them
People are going to suffer and die because of their ignorance.
Get on with it then!

7. there is no forgiveness
this election was vile, willfully ignorant, downright stupid... I am angry and will be for a long while... righteous anger about the coming dismantling of all I hold dear
I am angry that no "adults" capable of stopping this are willing to stand up and do it
Another assassination threat.

8. I'm pissed at them and not likely to be in a forgiving mood toward them in the foreseeable future.
They cast the ultimate "**** you" vote out of spite. It wasn't because they thought he was the better candidate. They knew exactly what they were voting for.
I feel almost the same way about the people who just couldn't bring themselves to vote for Hillary because . . . well, most of them can't even tell you why. They enabled the butternut turd just as surely as those who voted for him.
The thing that really makes me mad is that when the shit starts hitting the fan after DT takes office in January, everyone gets screwed, not just those who made it possible.
Shillary is the most dishonest and corrupt person alive.
The founders would be thanking us.

9. I consider them future war criminals, guilty by acquiescence to a monster
They knowingly put a man in power who is objectively unfit to hold office at the city council or local school board level, let alone in the White House. They voted for a dangerous con man and bully because they are collectively terrified of the unknown future, racists, bigots and slime who prefer prevarication and pandering to truth and consequences.
They own him.
His braggadocio.
His bluster.
His buffoonery.
His ham-fisted 'diplomacy'.
His lies.
His asinine statements and his "tweets"
They own it all and I have no intention of EVER allowing them to forget it.
As soon as things start going south in January, I have EVERY intention of telling them "I told you so" as loudly and as often as opportunity allows.
This country is on the road to being an international pariah in that moron's first 100 days. He is insulting diplomats, picking fights with China, cozying up to Russia and all of this BEFORE he takes the oath of office that he will IMMEDIATELY be in violation of the second he finishes the words.
If anyone voted for Trump and it was not a stolen vote through mistabulation or fraud, their names should be recorded and cataloged so that their family surnames can carry the stain upon them for generations to come.
By the way, I am not even remotely kidding or being sarcastic...this are people who need to own their decision and own the consequences that it will have for the planet and this nation. It was not hyperbole to say that man was an existential threat to the republic during the campaign, and absolutely NOTHING has changed since then.
:badass:
Since you are a useless nothing your misery makes me smile.

In my view, the one sure way to know that I have ****ed up beyond all hope of redemption is if the denizens of the DUmp agree with my actions.
Thankfully, so far I am "0 for forever" on that one.

Crap,I missed Bad Cats thread so please merge into his.
Just so much yummy goodness at the DUmp these days.

So, what's stopping you, diaper-clad avenger? Step up, weapon up (Yeah, I made myself laugh again) and release that pent up righteous anger.
Any time.

Every post they make, underscores the exact reason Trump was necessary.

As your betters.
We are smarter.
We are more successful.
We don't need others to take care of us.
We are more giving and generous.
We are far less totalitarian.
We are far more open to new and opposing ides.
We are more pragmatic.

I see what you did there :cheersmate:

As a conservative reading the collected rage directed at me from the DUmmies, I find that I vacillate between not giving a damn, not giving a hoot, not giving a ****, and not giving a shit.
I guess it just depends on the day.

"Objectively?"
So who did you vote for? Somebody who doesn't have the intellectual capacity to have more than one email account?

29. i'm pissed at them.
is ignorance an excuse, especially willful (na na na i can't hear you!) ignorance? so many of them are just massive hypocrites! christian, and you choose this man? this pervert, sex offender, draft dodger, tax evader, liar? talk about a golden calf...
i do love some of them. it still makes it hard for me, because i think i will have to forgive them, but i also think that i am probably still too pissed so far.
i don't know how it will go in the future. in my family we have tacitly agreed not to talk politics in the past, but this thing is incredibly huge, and i am aghast that even a single one of them thought trump was the right choice.
i'm struggling. fortunately i have an appt with my dr to get my klonopin refilled today. been pretty distraught for just about one month today.
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

If I would have known that Trump would have this kind of effect on the DUmmies, I would have voted for him in the primaries!

Evidently, this is an anti-seizure medication. If that's how it's being used, I won't mock that condition. But in learning what Klonopin is, I saw that among the known side effects are inclination toward suicidal and paranoid thoughts. I'm sure that's better than seizures, but this DU-member really should be on guard against those side-effects.

I read the bolded aloud to my wife and when I got to the part in red even the dog busted out laughing.

Unlike many of you, Trump was my pick after Walker dropped out. So for most of the campaign. I have read his books and liked the way he thought. He was successful business man. Yes, he did go BK on 5-6 companies out of hundreds. The DUches assume he went personally BK like they have. He never did that. However, more than anything he addressed my concerns: illegal immigration, political correct culture, the biased media, and the muzzie problem.
Of course I would have voted for anyone against Hillary Clintoris except iJeb! or Katshit. I wouldn't vote for here, just not vote.

What is the right way to think about Trump voters?
Well dummie I look at this way:
Near as I can you tell you ain't never had a thought, cogent or otherwise, in your entire life so why start now? Just go back to the weed, cheetos and Girls episodes and let Trump turn this country's economy back around to where there are actually jobs for people that want to work. That way the government can actually pay for your welfare. M'kay?
Don't worry your little liberal head about real world stuff. Leave that to those of us who actually know what we are doing. Just get back to your little safe space and you will be fine. Oh and after you get there you can FOAD. :loser:
Edited to add:
Well I R dumb. I thought my response did not post. Turns out there is a dup thread. Duh!

Sorry, jukin, but for my part, I'd as lief never have a single thing to do with any Hitlary humping turd. Afraid MY mind and spirit is so damn far from feeling magnanimous as you and others are. I'm more likely to walk my dogs over to a Hitlary humper so they could take a long and leisurely whizz on THEIR cankles' craving carcasses as to offer one iota of outreach or sympathy.
However, I will proffer the suicide prevention hotline number, out of date though it might be.😉

May I suggest your democrat a$$ be aware that my iron sights are on your chest. Then you may be polite if you are on my property...You filthy, disgusting, islam loving, blm supporting racist POS.

Clonazapam is also prescribed for panic disorders. It is Valium's first cousin.

I'm not holding any olive franch to these shit weasels or anybody on the left. This is war and I am willing to bring a flame thrower to the knife fight. Not sure what made you think i was going to be nice to people that hate me for being a white male conservative. I want the left to be eliminated, completely. So bad they never rise again.
