Will you ever respect you Trumpist neighbors again?

If I were thinking of countries that don't tax income, I think that countries like UAE, Bermuda, the Bahamas, Monaco, and Andorra might also be in the running. Plenty of ultra-wealthy folks live in Dubai for just that reason, I believe.

then why doesn't your party go after the wealthy elite and not the rights of your fellow citizens? all most of both parties do right now is aid the wealthy elite.

Oh yeah!

Mitch is the defender of the wealthy elite.

  • President Joe Biden said Monday that tax increases for millionaires and corporations are fundamental to creating a "fair" economy that rewards work and grows the middle class.
  • Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said these same tax hikes would be a red line for congressional Republicans, effectively killing any chance of a deal on infrastructure spending.

No, I have no respect for Trump supporters. Trump is so blatantly corrupt and dishonest that it's impossible to respect those who support him.

I feel sorry for most Trump supporters because they're just dupes. They got conned.

Here is my breakdown of Trump supportes:

1. Diehard conservative obsessed with socialism/communism yet totally confused by the actual definitions.

2. Wrestlemania fan types who just love his style. He reminds them of Tripple H and Rick Flair.

3. Deplorables. Nazis, Clansmen, sexists, Islamaphobes, homophobes the whole disgusting bunch.

4. Dupes. They're victims who got conned.

5. Christian conservatives who hate gays. They're obsessed with gays.

It was your party that lit up the White House in rainbow colors.

You dont respect people because they believe different politics than you? Lol.

You guys live pretty sad lives if a vote could make you lose all respect for someone.

That's a pretty shallow response, my friend. Respect is something that is earned, and can be lost if someone's behavior evinces a standard that falls below that which garners respect.

What is a vote? A vote is a representation of beliefs. If the beliefs expressed by that vote fall below that standard, loss of respect is the natural consequence. If the vote represents a rejection of a number of standards, particularly important ones (fairness, equality, respect for others, principles of democracy itself, reality), it may undermine all bases of respect.

As long as you can insulate yourself from the vicissitudes of the real world, that is.

I know I wont. Not out of malice or to be vindictive but rather because they have exposed themselves.

Depends on how you define "Trumpist"

A person who simply voted for Trump, even in 2020
Sure I can respect them as a person no problem

A person who today 5/5/2021 believes in QAnon, thinks the election was stolen, still supports Trump and would vote for him again.
Nope. Qanon people are bat shit insane.
 
rickc said:
Oh right wing propaganda is very effective

That is the problem. Decades of indoctrination by right wing media

But something makes them seek out those kind of news sources

Obviously you didn't. What makes you different?

I have a college education and have been to various parts of the world.

The people I speak of, while many are skilled and intelligent, do not have a broad education like you get from college, and have very little experience outside of our rural area.

You can remain friends with someone who voted for Trump in 2016. You cannot associate with anyone who voted for Trump in 2020.

In 2016 it was fair to think he would "grow up." By 2020 we knew he was a sick bitch hell bent on destroying America.

You are too soft.

I though I was by willing to overlook 2016 but you go too far, IMHO.

Peace

LMAO to each their own
Id value how they actually treat me and others and their ability to wake up and right their mistakes more than to write them off forever
 
Nope. If you voted for Trump twice, there is nothing else about you I need to know.

"Similar size." Many other countries enjoy more wealth and freedom than any other country in the world that is similar size to that country. China immediately springs to mind. Weird hedge.

Under any measure except for a few, the United States is not the best country in the world to live. Whether it is the "best" country shouldn't matter for a "real" American, but unfortunately too many "real" Americans feel the need to claim incorrectly that the United States is the "best" for one reason or another, thereby showing more about themselves than about the country in which they live.

It is. Everyone wants to come and live the American dream.

This thread is STILL alive and active 4 months after he's been out of office and practically banned from public appearances. He is still living rent free in your heads.

You. Are. The. Cult.

TRump cultists turned their back on America in favor of hate, orange hate. I will never look at them the same.

Will you?

Hell no.

Respect them. That my friend is the wrong question.

I would go about the business of trying to find some sane family members of theirs to conduct an intervention and then send them off to be deprogramed. THEN after that, you can start to talk about RESPECT.

These people are loony tunes. They refuse to look at anything that contests their whack-a-doodle CT's including the fact that people who have made the very claims that their beliefs are based upon are retracting those claims under threat of great financial loss.

Just as an update:
The Arizona non-Audit has on some number of ballots:
- looks at them with infrared light looking for watermarks that don't exist
- used some whack-a-doodle process called Kinematic artifact detection looking for ceases that do not exist
- are now onto looking for bamboo in some of the ballots in an effort to prove that some of the ballots came from China

Not one of these processes has been used on all of the ballots as this is a whack-s-doodle circus run by a Qanon devotee, the CEO of Cyber Ninjas.

Now you can see why I have posted elsewhere that we might have seen the last actual legitimate election of a US President in the 2020 Election of Joe Biden and that we have to win 2022. Its because these folks are NUTS..... Jim Jones nuts. Donald Trump is Jim Jones narcissistic.

Got a question for you sane forum members. Do you think a single one of them will even attempt to reply to or argue with this post? Oh wait.....I see a ""and you call us NUTS post" coming. That will be about it.

Trump feeds THE BIG LIE which is what feeds whack-a-doodle nonsense like the Arizona non-audit and continues to be the most immediate and obvious threat to this Republic. Claiming Trump is living rent free in peoples head's is simply an effort to make us believe there is "nothing to see here". Forget it bucko. You are wasting your breath.

The malignant narcissist scumbag grifter and seditionist has all the repuke leaders coming down to Florida to kiss his ass. Still a factor because a bunch of morons are willing to follow a man over the rule of law and the constitution. Quite disgusting.
