Why GOP voters are so loyal to Trump - Politics Discussion

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

It's not TRUMP that has "conditioned" us to "believe" any "external charge" against him is a a "product" of some type of "conspiracy".

It is the hysterical rage and hate from liberals and their actions.

Oh please, he's constantly complaining about liberals, the "deep state," the press--there's nothing he takes responsibility for (in his own words). Almost every time he opens his mouth he lies (great recent example--he said E Jean Caroll was not "his type" [btw, going against the pretty well established fact that rapists don't discriminate on looks] but when shown a photograph of her when she was young he mistook her for his ex-wife!)

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

It is not his words that convinced us of the hysterical rage of the libs. It was the hysterical rage of the libs.

Pointing to his words, is kind of irrelevant to that point. My point is that YOUR actions defined you, not his words.

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

- Some trump supporters remain loyal to him because they refuse to acknowledge the truth about his narcissistic/fascist mentality, which is also true about themselves and why they refuse to acknowledge it exists in ANY of them.

- Some trump supporters remain loyal to him because the legislation he promotes benefits their pocketbooks.

- And some trump supporter remain loyal to him because they've had their patriotism and religiosity used to condition them to vote against their own best interests...in favor of the interests of those who have conditioned them.

It's simply no more complicated than that.

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

You clearly hate US. And yet you cannot imagine that we disagree with you as to our own best interests.

The problem might be on your end. We understand ourselves far better than you do.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

No, based on the category of trump supporter that you placed yourself in, you clearly hate the idea that the U.S. is supposed to stand for, which is, that the true ideas of patriotism and religion are supposed to look out for EVERYONE, not just trump supporters.

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

Nice assertion. Care to back it up with an example from policy or action?

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

You've already provided the example with your own comment/"action" where you claimed Democrats "hate" you.

You telling yourself that is true, and then obviously actually believing it to be true, proves that you don't understand yourselves as well as you "believe" you do.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

Me believing that you hate us, is not us wanting the us to just look out for us.

I'm fine with all US citizens having their rights and interests represented in national policy.

From my perspective, it seemed that you people flipped out and are still raging, becuase WE finally got a voice, when Trump ran.

We just wantn equal representation and consideration, that we have not been getting for a long time now.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

Except for the fact that you are listening to trump, who is telling YOU to hate others who don't share your "voice".

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

I don't know where you got that, but I never heard Trump nor any of my fellow Trump supporters say anything liket that.

You should give the people YOU listent to, a real good look.

Meanwhile, till you do that, the hate I talked about, that I see directed at me and mine, constantly is still a thing.

Are you really unaware of it?

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

All you've proven is that YOU aren't REALLY listening to trump or your fellow trump supporters.

So I don't have to ask if you are unaware of THAT. You already just proved it. ; )

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

LOL. You just proved that you are unaware of the very concept of supporting your claims.

Trump ran on Trade and Immigration. This talk of "hate" is nonsense.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

There you go projecting again.

And thank you for proving you didn't understand that the types of trade and immigration policies trump promised were the exact opposite of what he tried to deliver. Sad.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

Don't try pivoting away from your talk of "hating other voices".

That is your claim, and you didn't support it with anything, even after being prompted.

BECAUSE YOU CAN'T. Because it is not true.

In the real world, it is YOU people that hate that we, ie Trump supporters, have a voice. You thouoght you had marginalized us forever. Then we won and you flipped out into hysterial rage and hate.

You aren't fooling anyone but yourself at being convincing. Sad.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

Well, yes I disagree with you that I and other Trump voters are motivated or attracted by "hate".

I'm inside my own head you know. For me to disregard my own thoughts and feelings, to instead accept YOUR take on my actions,

that is a high bar you have set yourself. It would take, a very impressive argument.

My memories of 2016, are being please that a credible candidate was running who's policies were closer to what I wanted than since... well for a very long time.

I was happy at the thought of the US possibly getting good policies and good results, ...FOR EVERYONE. Well, every US CITIZEN.

And that is what I saw in my fellow Trump supporters.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

Since you want to talk about what goes on in your head, it's no ones' fault but your own and that of your fellow trump supporters that it's what you have in your heads that allowed you to be duped into supporting him...as further evidenced by your last comment where you illustrated that you still "think" trump policies provide good results for everyone...even STILL at this point despite all of the objective evidence to the contrary. Sad.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

It is worth noting that we were talking about what motivated Trump supporters such as myself to vote for him in 2016.

Thus I was discussing my motives of taht time period, and the point is thaat it was nothing like you claim.

What you should do at this point, if you were capable of good faith discussion, is try to produce some evicence from historical records, that my motive was somehow in the minority, and that most Trump supporters were motivated by something evil.

Expressing your negative opinion of Trump policies or me, was nothing but spam.

The only information in your post, is that you don't even unstand the concept of how to debate ideas.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) a year ago

Except for the fact that even before trump ran for president he was a well known scam artist and cheat. It's no ones fault but your own if you voted for him not being aware of those facts because in doing so you only made yourself look ignorant/uninformed...as you're STILL doing with your continued support. ; )

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) a year ago

You are jumping all over the place like a fool.

Your claim of us being motivated by "hate" you dropped like a hot potatoe the moment you were challenged.

[–] jriddle73 (363) 2 years ago

"I don't know where you got that, but I never heard Trump nor any of my fellow Trump supporters say anything liket that."

Trump's entire 2020 campaign was to go around telling people that if Democrats won, they would literally end America, murder Republicans in the streets, kill their families, burn their churches and businesses and allow a terrorist siege-state against white rightists, while simultaneously claiming Democrats were working to cheat and "steal" the election (the toxic combo that eventually led to 6 Jan.). He has always preached hatred, protofascism and the real thing. He began his 2016 campaign by calling Mexicans killers and rapists of white people and said the Mexican government was involved in a conspiracy to ship such people to the U.S.. He explained how American Muslims danced in celebration in the streets of New Jersey on 9/11. He called for a complete ban on Muslims entering the U.S.. He regularly encouraged his supporters to violently assault those who disagreed with him, These things were central to his campaign. His stock stump speech, for the last 2 years is just hatred of Dems, liberals, progressives, "the left." He rants against Democrats and tells his white followers, "This isn't their country, this is YOUR country."

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

The few clear claims you made there, were not true.

1. He did NOT call Mexicans killers and rapists of white people.

2. He did NOT call for a complete ban of muslims entering the US.

You are the one demonizing half the country to divide us and turn us against each other.

[–] jriddle73 (363) 2 years ago

His exact words are that he's "calling for a total and complete shut-down of Muslims entering the United States":

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

1. The mexican comment was clearly a statement that rapists and killers were coming across the border buried in teh overall flow. He made no comment on "white people". The media LIED to you, claiming that he said that of ALL mexicans. it is also worth noting that he statement was clearly TRUE, and that people are dying as a result, but on the other hand, the dems scored some PR points by lying, so, you have to decide which is more important. So, that's not really "hate".

2. When implemented it was a ban of travel from only SEVEN countries, that supposedly the state department had trouble checking people for terrorist connections. That is not a ban of all muslims. So....Considering that we have been the target of quite a number of terrible muslim terror attacks, that killed thousands of us, that seems not so much "hate" as "reasonable self protection".

I take it these were your BEST examples?

reply

[–] jriddle73 (363) 2 years ago

It's also the case that having Trumpian protofascism "represented in national policy" in any sort of hegemonic way would literally end the liberal society, so there would no longer any question of anyone's rights or interests being represented.

reply

[–] jriddle73 (363) 2 years ago

Some trump supporters remain loyal to him because they refuse to acknowledge the truth about his narcissistic/fascist mentality, which is also true about themselves and why they refuse to acknowledge it exists in ANY of them.

That's totally inaccurate. That particular part of his base--the hardcore Trumpers--remain loyal to him precisely because of "his narcissistic/fascist mentality." That's a feature--THE feature--not a bug. The only thing Repub voters of this species demand of a politician is that he hates and wants to screw over the same people those Repub voters have been conditioned by right-wing media to hate and to want to screw over. On that score--the only score that matters to them--Trump delivers.

Almost no one in the regular corporate press understood that in 2016, including, early on, those in far-right media that had created those conditions. It's fascism--seething, furious hatred of the liberal society and any manifestation of it and the desire to crush it.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

You must be pretty cool, if the people you fight are such evil bastards.

Mmm, though, the way that you paint them/us as such evul bastards, kind of supports my point, that you hate us.

reply

[–] jriddle73 (363) 2 years ago

Trump's supporters aren't, by and large, a bunch of evil bastards (though there are plenty of those). They're people who have been victimized by, among other things, a powerful, agenda-driven media apparatus that takes advantage of them and fills their heads with poison for political reasons. But that apparatus just did this so they'd vote Republican and those behind it never realized the fascist monster they were creating by what they were preaching until it was too late.

Never get confused on the source of the hatred in this.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

Why thanks for the faint praise.

Back in 2016, when Trump ran, I supported him politically becasue I liked his stance on Trade and Immigration. .

For that, I was viciously attacked by dozens of lefties partisans over the years.

It was not a "powerful media" that told me that happened. I experienced it myself. The treatment I got from those people, was clearly full of hate and anger.

The stated reasons were quite mad. They said it was stupid of me to want Job friendly trade policy so that people like me could have more jobs. They said it was RACIST of me to not want high levels of immigration. They also ironically said that as a white man, I had no right to be against high levels of immigration.

When I pointed out that that was actually racist of them, by that point of discussion, they would normally just be hate spew rage monsters.

Your insistance that it is us, the Trump supporters that are the problem, is very , very wrong. It is the ANTI-TRUMP people that are hte problem, them and their hysterical hate and rage.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

It's obviously NOT totally innaccurate because you basically just said the same thing I did.

The reason they like his narcissistic/fascist mentality is because they identify with it, ie; he's just like they are in that regard. They're the same traits that keep them from being able to admit/acknowledge those things about themselves regardless of who points it out to them or how objectively conclusive the evidence of it being a fact is.

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

Just because you believe that doesn't make it true. Calling your "team" out on its narcissistic/fascist traits is not the same as someone being "unfriendly" towards you, but of course it's easy to see why you would choose to see such calling out in the way that you do since doing so is a textbook trait of the narcissistic/fascist.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) 2 years ago

Or, it could be that you just hate us, imagine bad shit about us, to justify your hate, and then just keep insisting on those bad things, becuase it justifies not having to listen to people you hate.

But the bit where you then in addition to that, make fun of us for not joinging with you or talking about "sides",

is really... not good.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) 2 years ago

No, it's because your "team" is seen in actual reality exhibiting narcissistic/facsist traits, and refusing to acknowledge such things when called out on them is simply what people with narcissistic/fascist traits do...which you've just done again...in addition to not listening to the people you hate pointing out that you're doing it.

Right back at you. Why do you still think trumps' trade and immigration policies WEREN'T based solely on the irrational and xenophobic "thinking" of his maga supporters?

After all, with the benefit of hindsight, the overall intent of the policies DID prove that valid.

reply

[–] Corbell (10995) a year ago

Because the status quo policies he challenged, failed to give the results that were promised when they were implemented long ago.

Thus changing those policies, since they failed, is completely reasonable.

ie NOT any "phobia" or other such word salad.

reply

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) a year ago

And yet you continue to fail to prove that the policies trump tried to introduce to change said alleged status quo were failures (thus requiring any NEED for them to be changed)...especially in the way that trump and his supporters wanted them changed. Sad.

Your initial point was that Trump was all about "his narcissistic/fascist mentality".

I've pointed out that his rise was all about serious issues.

It is irrelevant whether or not you agree with his solutions. THe fact that his rise was driven by legitimate issues that spoke to his supporters, utterly debunks your trash talk.

You want to have a more serious and nuanced debate about the best policies to deal with those issues, I'm up for that,

but first, drop the trash talk about what bad people we are.

That is just you being a partisan hack. AND a sophist. AND a fear monger demagogue.

[–] WhoToTrust (1119) a year ago

Just because YOU believe trumps' rise was due to a serious regard to any issues on HIS part doesn't mean he actually had said regard, OR, that any of the issues you are regarding as "serious" actually were...especially since history and the facts both suggest otherwise.

Regarding the "partisan hack. AND a sophist. AND a fear monger demagogue" part, that's just you ONCE AGAIN trying to trumpishly project/deflect from the fact that you aren't capable of having a serious/nuanced debated about serious issues because you and trump don't even know what they are, or if you do, you refuse to acknowledge them because focusing on your hate is all you know how to do.

If the issues were NOT relevant to his rise, then what value is there in discussing them?

You are doing a stunt I see a lot from lefties, trying to cloud the issue(s) by discussion multiple issues at once, which gives them an option to pivot from one to another, when they get caught by the weakness of their arguments.

It is a tactic people want to use, because on some level they know that they are wrong.

AND furthermore, it is worth pointing out, that ANY discussion of how you view the results of the policies?

That is absolutely fucking RETARDED to bring up, becuase the discussion is based on the intetnt of the voters, AT THAT TIME WHICH WAS YEARS BEFORE TEH RESULTS OCCURRED.

most of the list is Trump signing bi-partisan bills that came across his desk that ANY person that happened to be in the White would have signed.

what bipartisan bills has Joe signed in the past 2 years to make America great again?

reply

[–] beermonkey70 (282) 2 years ago

you've clearly missed the point here. The point was that you were giving trump credit for things that congress did. I dont worship Biden so I don't care about propping him up for signing bipartisan bills (there were some like the chips act, American rescue plan, infrastructure bill).
If there fewer bipartisan bills passed during his term then blame congress for obstructing

so basically all the president does is signs bills? what bills has the Groomer-in-Chief signed to make America great again?

here is what Trump did.

Trump also ended a war and never allowed a new war to start. he secured the border as well.

biden just sent 1500 active duty troops to the border. they are expecting about 7,000 new immigrants per day. as usual, no one cares.

"so basically all the president does is signs bills? "
It's not my job to explain how the 3 branches of federal govt operate but when it comes to LEGISLATION then yes that is often the extent of the president's role, Especially when the legislation is supported overwhelmingly by both parties as was the case in the bills you brought up. These types of bill happen during every administration unless the opposing party is deliberately obstructing.
Although I already stated that I am not in business of cheerleading for Biden I will point out a few bills he did sign
Chips act - supporting the domestic production of semiconductors and
authorizes various programs and activities of the federal science agencies.
American Rescue Plan Act - helped small businesses post pandemic
Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act - something that trump promised but was unable to deliver
Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 - Hard to argue with this one. The recovery from the post pandemic inflation crisis so far has been the best such recovery in our nation's history. The numbers dont lie

Eagle Pass crisis: Biden administration sends 800 troops to help as 10,000 migrants cross over in 24 hour period
An estimated 4,000 migrants arrived in Eagle Pass, Texas, on Wednesday
Homeland Security has sent 800 troops to help the Texas National Guard
Greg Abbott slammed Biden for creating the crisis yesterday
Since January, Biden has granted work permits to nearly 500,000 Venezuelan migrants

the chips act will increase climate change

American Rescue Plan Act is a US $1.9 trillion economic stimulus bill passed by the 117th United States Congress, where did this money come from and how was it spent?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrastructure_policy_of_Donald_Trump
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Investment_and_Jobs_Act

They are both the same thing. dems didnt want to pass Trumps policy because it was too much money.

Democratic congressional leaders say President Trump has agreed to a $2 trillion infrastructure plan. But — and it's a big but — there was no agreement on how to pay for such a wide-ranging and expensive proposal. Dems didnt pass it because they are constantly working against Trump to make him look bad.

Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 has not reduced inflation nor has it reversed climate change.

The Inflation Reduction Act is the largest piece of federal legislation ever to address climate change.[71] According to the CBO and JCT, it will invest $783 billion in provisions relating to energy security and climate change.[7][8] This includes $663 billion in tax incentives,[8] and $27 billion for a green bank created by amending the Clean Air Act.[72][73][42] However, other forecasts differ from the CBO's and JCT's reports. A report by Credit Suisse projects that the total climate spending in the Act would be $800 billion,[56][57][74] Goldman Sachs predicts a total of $1.2 trillion, the Penn Wharton Budget Model predicts $1.045 trillion, and an analysis by the Brookings Institution finds a central case of $902 billion.

no, we shouldnt have to used active military to secure our border, everything was fine until a dementia patient said he welcomes all immigrants.

Customs and Border Protection reported encounters with 188,829 migrants and asylum-seekers at the U.S. southern border last month, the highest level in a generation. The Biden administration has struggled with how to respond.

I see...

"The Republican assault on free and fair elections instigated by Donald Trump is gathering pace, with efforts to sabotage the normal workings of American democracy sweeping state legislatures across the US.

"A year that began with the violent insurrection at the US Capitol is ending with an unprecedented push to politicize, criminalize or in other ways subvert the nonpartisan administration of elections. A year-end report from pro-democracy groups identifies no fewer than 262 bills introduced in 41 states that hijack the election process.

"Of those, 32 bills have become law in 17 states."

People have short-term memories. I'm repeatedly hearing news correspondents, politicians and the public assuring a Biden win. This overconfidence is setting up Trump for another win like it did in 2016.

Biden didn't win by that much. 44,000 votes in a few states is very close.

reply

[–] HarlemEagle42 (17735) 2 years ago

Don't be too cocky about that. Biden won the EC just by 44,000 votes or so. And the Republicans are working harder than usual to make it more difficult to either vote them out of office or for people to even vote at all.

Your reasons are very weak and not country changing. Wont affect crime.

Now Democrats and their current border policy is having the most crossings ever, ever in the history of the presidency

Democrat no cash bail is causing a crime wave people with 40 plus arrest walking around. Democrat prosecutors working as defense attorneys and reducing charges for criminals.

Democrats mentality that they can abandon fossil fuels is causing high gas prices.

Democrats pushing boys competing against girls in sports.

These are country changing subjects.

Irrelevant to people's day to day lives. Why do only democrats hear racist "dogwhistles"?

corruptly use the Oval to enrich himself

Also irrelevant to people's day to day lives. Now do Nanci Pelosi.

constantly stay surrounded by criminals like some mafioso

Irrelevant to people's day to day lives. Marxist "guilty by association" is super cringe. Hitler drank water and breathed air.

get impeached twice

For a phone call. You can hold impeachment hearings for literally anything. Without a conviction and removal, its virtue signaling.

incite an insurrection

Never happened.

“Donald Trump has conditioned … a pretty serious majority of the Republican base to believe that any legal critique of him, any external charge made against him is invalid and a product of the ‘deep state’ or a conspiracy of some kind to take him away from Republican voters,” said Rick Wilson, co-founder of the anti-Trump Lincoln Project.

And here's what the rightists of the Lincoln Project can't seem to bring themselves to admit: right-wing media is responsible for that conditioning. Right-wing media has used the brainwashing techniques of cults, filling their followers' heads with toxic fantasies while making a daily theme of isolating those followers from any information-stream outside the cult. That's what Wilson is describing in those comments. But Trump didn't do that; he merely exploited the situation created by that media apparatus--the same apparatus the high-profile Republican insiders of the Lincoln Project were happy to exploit for decades when it served their interests (getting people to vote Republican).
