> I support President Trump
Why? I'm genuinely curious.

- cf100clunk 1y agoThat's quite an admission. Would you say your feelings are objective?
- gryfft 1y agoObservation, not admission. The fact remains that you can't argue with feelings.
- sorcerer-mar 1y agoI honestly don’t mean this as an insult or to be demeaning. I find this comment extremely illuminating and I don’t think it should be downvoted. What you’re seeing here is exactly how cult members speak about their in-group versus out-group. It is a deeply emotional and all-encompassing experience, just like gryfft describes. Agreed, no truer answer, and not something that can be argued with for people who feel this way. I appreciate someone coming out and just saying this instead of playing whack-a-mole on policies which clearly are totally secondary to the emotional overwhelm described above.

- pixelatedindex 1y ago> The left wants prostitution, drugs, crime to be legalized. What’s wrong with prostitution being legalized? Brothels and sex work has been a thing since humans existed. Can’t speak for drugs, except we have been asking for Cannabis to be taken off the scheduled list. Nobody is asking for crime to be legalized. In fact in the Bay we have been extremely mad about how SF and their DA has been treating crime, same goes for the Oakland DA.
- cmurf 1y agoThere's a few kooks pointing guns at people, and should be arrested for doing so. The idea it's a movement or supported by liberals is delusional nonsense promoted by the disinformation of whatever your news source is. How do you explain the vast majority of Republicans supporting Ukraine over Russia, and in just a few weeks of Trump revealing his full throated support for Russia, most Republicans now support Russia? You think that's normal? Who is the Trump equivalent cult leader of the left who has flipped people around that quickly?

- bediger4000 1y agoHow about Trump pardoning Ross Ulbricht? The dude was a massive drug dealer. How about pardoning J6 convicts? We all watched the crimes on TV, they had due process and trials.

- almosthere 1y agoHe is delivering on what he promised and I support all of the things he promised. I was a democrat for 40 years of my 45 year old life.
- croes 1y agoSo prices are down, jobs are up, and the wars are over?
- cf100clunk 1y agoIs there a scorecard I can look at somewhere of promises-made, promises-kept, new-policies-never-promised?
- maxerickson 1y agoThis would be more interesting if you elaborated on a couple of promises and what you see as delivering.

- pixelatedindex 1y agoWell I hope you’re mad about how DOGE has done nothing on the fraud/waste/abuse front, because so far it’s just been all show no substance. In fact they just kept on spending more. Also what about the fraud that Elon has been committing? Any qualms there?
- gryfft 1y ago> after the election I've seen at least 3 people in my community start wearing mens clothing again I've heard from multiple trans friends that they are afraid the Trump government will come for them and lock them up for being trans due to actions being taken in state legislatures right now [1] and that for these reasons they are or are considering going completely closeted for their own safety. I don't think it counts as a "fad ending" when you have chilling effects [2] like this coming from the government. 1. https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-politics-and-policy/texas-bill-identify-transgender-state-felony-rcna195642 https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-politics-and-policy/texa... 2. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilling_effect https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilling_effect
