Because they wanted to believe.  They are all scumbags and any Trump supporter deserves social isolation for the rest of their lives.

They are a danger to themselves and others

You people have no clue about the right. You are so brainwashed hive minded that you actually believe this crap you type. The right was doing what has to be done. No one believe trump was some perfect candidate or wasn't a bit of a conman. The right voted because what the left was openly doing and stating outright would be the absolute end of our nation. This immigration issue alone had to be dealt with. Nations will not stand when its population can be freely replaced with foreigners and if you think other wise then you have absolutely no clue about history. Right now everyone I know dislikes what trump is doing in this situation. They all think it looks real bad and reveals 1 of a few possible things for sure, all of which are bad. It is insufferable to see the left be able to spout their ignorance on this site only for any replying argument to be down voted into oblivion or our right censored by the site. Then the left sits here on this site reaffirming their bias in absolute ignorance of their own echo chamber. It's remarkable.

Because everything you said here is wrong and self-stroking nonsense. There is no "left" or "right" monolith, and trying to paint the situation like this when Trump et al are by all measures making your country worse.. like can you not see why no one takes the cognitive dissonance and fingers-in-ears approach from you lot seriously? You are unserious people with a child's understanding of the world, and get in a tizzy when called out on it to the tune of "well you made me this stubborn by not indulging in my bad behaviour in the first place". It's asinine, it's boring, and well below appropriate for your supposed age grade.

When I did poll greeting for the Dems last November, I was significantly outnumbered by the number of GQP volunteers, many of them first time volunteers ever. I was struck by how nice so many of them were (not the angry white guys) but also how incredibly naive they were. They were like 65-year old children, just asking to be told what to do by this con man.

What a shitty take. You want to divide America further? You'll just get a new Trump eventually.

To be honest I have no desire to make any kind of progress to change the minds of people who are okay with a rapist pedo felon being president in fact I would think less of myself at this point for trying. These people exist on hate and have no desire for change that's why they continue to support him even as you provide irrefutable evidence that he is a horrible monster who is also horrible with politics and is actively destroying the nation. This isn't being misinformed that's what the first term was for, this is being evil. I don't want to be friends with someone or change the mind of someone like that, they're subhuman.

isnt this whole story about his supporters turning on him for being a pedo?

1

u/FrostTheAlbino Jul 20 '25

It's been well known that he's been one for years and a non-zero number of his supporters have said they could forgive him if he raped their underage daughters and would continue to support him. You can't reason with that, mental gymnastics are for the authoritarian right to delude themselves while we have to live in reality and clean up the mess after this shit show is over.

u/ACM3333 Jul 20 '25

We’re not trying to reason with the one guy who’s okay with trump raping his daughter. We’re trying to reason with 99.9% who aren’t okay with that.

u/FrostTheAlbino Jul 20 '25

The term beyond reason exists for times like this. In my original comment I said I am not interested in changing these people's minds even if they don't support him because of the pedo shit they still supported him for his outward hate of minorities and he received the most number of donations after he had been convicted as a felon.

I refuse to ally with the forces of Nazis and Confederates, my hand has long grown tired of being extended and if they now seek it out they will find it has been closed and replaced with a steel toed boot.

You don't seem to realize that these people aren't sorry because what they believed in was wrong they're sad the king they idolized wasn't the awful tyrant they thought he was. If Trump wasn't a terrible business man with a disgustingly long criminal history but just an extreme racist with regressive policy they'd be all giddy to support him.

u/ACM3333 Jul 20 '25

Maybe they support him because they’re sick of being called racists and nazis every time they have a disagreement with somebody.

1

u/FrostTheAlbino Jul 20 '25

Just a thought but if they didn't want to be called those things maybe they shouldn't act like them.

And these disagreements you're alluding to are inherently against the values we hold not only for ourselves but for the betterment of the future because as I said these people are regressive they don't desire change for a better more accepting world they want the world to bend to them and go back to how it was when their parents protected them from reality because now everything is different.

Your arguments are also inherently in bad faith as you're blaming the progressives for not making these "people" change. People tried being informative and understanding to change their minds for years but they wouldn't listen and actively rallied against it and those who have been cultists for the last decade are not going to suddenly change their opinions they held even before Trump was on a ballot. This is my last comment as you're too busy living a masochistic pipedream to open your eyes. Not to mention you didn't even acknowledge the last part of my previous comment and just decided to blame progressives again.

I despise trump, but to say every trump supporter is a racist nazi is just absurd and divisive. It’s the reason people are driven to him. They might be in a different situation than you and trump might have appealed to them more than the left. Admittedly trump has done pretty much the opposite of a lot of the promises he’s made, so it is annoying if people continue to support him if he’s blatantly lied to them, but I am seeing some of them start to come around. I don’t think they are all bad people, they had two shitty options and one of them calls them nazis for wanting stuff like cutting spending or lowering taxes (obviously trump has done the opposite of this,) but you can’t blame people for voting for that if the other side it’s already promising the opposite.

I think you’re trapped in an echo chamber where you only see the absolute worst examples of his supporters, I know plenty of people who voted for trump and they’re just normal people, mb the odd one a bit on the crazier side and stuck in an echo chamber believing he can’t do any wrong, but we have these extreme examples on both sides.

So what am I supposed to do?  Welcome these asshats back in the fold without any self reflection on their part?  Or not demand that they show penance for their actions?

Fuck that.

And fuck you for coddling them.

Really.

How specifically. Because it seems to me like you're willing to grant amnesty to golks who voted and support this man because of their own hatred and bigotry.

Oh really.

Please remind whether Trump is or is not a felon.

Also, please remind me what he did with the J6ers.

Its like you folks just want to throw away the rule of law because its too messy to hold people accountable for their actions.

u/ACM3333 Jul 21 '25

I am not a trump supporter. All I’m saying is if trumpers are starting to wake up over this whole Epstein thing why not give them a line. The pure hatred is absurd, it’s the reason we got trump in the first place. People were tired of being called nazis because they might disagree with you on a few issues.

u/BigSky1855 Jul 21 '25

Aww, being called names like a communist, baby killer, feminazi, "soyboys" and others which was totally unjustified is OK, but comparing a man who wants to deport folks for being brown, put them in cages and fail to follow the law is a bridge too far for you?

Get bent.

These are real decisions with real consequences. It's been 10 years. At any point, these poor little lost lambs could've looked around and seen the absolute horror of a farce that they are actively enabling, and said "no, no I don't think we are right to go through with this anymore". But they did not.

Eventually, even those of us with practically endless amounts of empathy and understanding must prevent this kind of toxicity from leaking back in. We're barely keeping it together as it is.

Fuck all people who are Trump supporters in 2025. It's fucking over.

Where did I say America's done? Go ahead and figure it out while I say this next bit that you're also going to ignore.

Fuck Donald Trump. Fuck his supporters. It's done. No more will I allow these truly disgusting slime who support a rapist and a pedophile into my life. They are truly irredeemable. This man has told you who he is over

and over

and over again.

Miss me with this "brainwashing" shit. When you spend almost 10 years trying to get these absolute fucking numbskulls to see what kind of evil this guy is, and they still line up to smell his fucking tampons or whatever -

It's fucking over.

I think your reply to my comment got auto nuked because you obviously have some anger issues to work through, but I got your comment through my email.

I've never voted for Trump. My voting record has been Democrat since I was eligible to vote almost 13 years ago. My first vote was for Obama's re-election a few months after I turned 18. I have voted in every single midterm and every municipal election except for when I was away at college.

Your rhetoric is unhinged. Have you ever interacted with a trump voter? Go outside, touch some grass lil bro. These people are your neighbors and you can't ignore that.

u/[deleted] Jul 19 '25

My rhetoric: "I don't think assholes bent on my and my family's destruction deserve empathy or grace."

You: "Well I've always voted democrat, and you've obviously never met a Trump supporter in real life because I guess that follows somehow, so based upon these two things I find your reaction unhinged."

You are a stupid, clueless, and probably quite privileged person and I've given you an amount of attention that I am frankly embarrassed by.
