Why would anyone vote for Trump

[OldJourno]

Haven 't seen this thread.

My dislike of Trump started a few years back. Can't remember what show it was, but it featured Trump on the golf course with some friends.
Trump cheated. He went ahead of his group and moved his ball much closer to the cup.
I admit I don't know if Trump later fessed up. He may have. But what was shown in the final edit was one player saying he didn't think Trump's ball was anywhere near the hole, and that was it.
The list could go on and on, but I'm tired of typing.

I have to say that, from the outside looking in at all this, we're all kind of wondering how he got to be a serious contender.

 

[BotanyBoy]

Other than he's not a Sachs employee, there isn't much of one.

He's a fuckin' shit bag and embarrassment.

He's a showman who manipulated mainstream media into giving him many billions of bucks worth of free coverage. He exploited the fact-free GOP universe and took it over by extrapolating their madness to the Nth degree. He out-assholed all the other GOP assholes -- and the slavering crowds love his excesses.

His audiences *do* have legitimate grievances. But his solutions will crush them, not help them. It's like, if you're tired of walking, shoot yourself in the foot.

Shit bag? That sums it up nicely.

I've watched clips from a few of his rallies. All I see in the crowd are scared, old, white people. If you ever wonder which people would give up their rights in the name of "national security" or dealing with "those people", look no further than a Trump supporter.

I totally get why middle America aren't happy with their current situation. (Well, not 'totally', but I understand the general gist of it all.) But the possibility that Trump is the solution just seems so ridiculous, it's extremely difficult to understand how anyone could take it seriously. Here, anyone who's that much of an obvious nut-job doesn't really get past putting up a few billboards before they get laughed out of contention.

You are tired of typing. Yeah, sure. Just wait a few minutes.

I have been dreaming of a candidate like Trump my entire life.

90% of his views are my views. I can finally vote FOR a candidate I support and not for the lesser of two or three evils.

Beyond that, I have come to absolutely love and admire the man.

He has made history as the first person in the modern era to win nomination of a major party for President without being tainted as a career politician.

He has made billions of dollars, built buildings all over the world, raised a fine family and great children, and been a success at everything he has ever done.

He is an amazing inspiration, and I am honored to have the chance to cast my vote for him once already and once again this Tuesday.

Not only that I sent him $2700 as a donation. By far and away the most I have evver donated to a candidate before was maybe $300, usually just $50 or $100, and that's rare. I feel honored to have given his noble, historic campaign money as a thank you for all he has done for us being a voice for the people and our last chance to Make America Great Again.

God bless Donald Trump. Win or not, he is a true hero and inspiration for all Americans and all people around the world.

The Trump Movement is a family from sea to shining sea. There are Trump supporters in every part of the country from Long Island to the Marianas Islands to the frigid arctic shores.

Win or not, rigged or honest, the Trump Movement will remain a noble family of tens of millions of Americans, and hundreds of millions around the world, of good people of all classes, races, creeds, colors, sexes, and locales.

We will hold our heads high, and raise the banner of Trumpism for years and decades to come.

The real question is: what will his family do if he loses? Will they try to come together with the rest of the nation and work together to solve our problems; or will they be a disruptive force that prevents anything from getting done? Will they respect the wishes of the rest, or ignore them?

Most of his votes will come from people who want to say "Fuck You" to the establishment and the neoliberal mainstream.

It's hard to take anyone who'd vote for Clinton seriously when they complain about right wingers.

It doesn't get much more right wing than Hillary.

 

[about_average]

If you're a proponent for turture (got your interrogation techniques from 24) then you'll vote for him since he says he wants to re-institute torture, worse than anything done to date. Including killing families. I'm sure he got that idea straight from 24.

well, hillary is a crook. not sure if she is Jeffrey Skilling or Charles Manson

what the fuck are you talking about? the obama slaves surrendered rights with that moronic Patriot act II

I love how you retards were anti Bush with Patriot Act I, calling it an invasion of privacy. Yet, you retarded slaves were all to happy to become cuckolded slaves with Patriot Act II

Since you can read their minds which rights are these scared, old white people willing to give up?

Did you ever consider that having a president who is exempt from the Rule of Law might be a slight bit dangerous?

Something I've noticed about this place is some people aren't exactly very deep thinkers.

 

[Liar]

I can understand voting Trump as a "to hell with everything" vote.

But that's not a vote for Trump, that's a vote against everything. It's destructive adolescent rebellion and self harm as a national movement. And maybe shit is that fucked. I doubt it personally, but I can understand the thought process that leads to that conclusion. So they know Trump is shit but they want to flip the establishment the biggest possible bird.

What I don't understand are the voters who think The Donald is in any way, shape or form able to do the job.

He has proven to be a blathering idiot who has trouble completing complex sentences, lack even cursory insight into many basic issues, don't know what his own position is from day to day and commits logical and rethorical fallacies more often than a regular person blinks.

A person who can, on camera, say "I think I'm much more humble than you would understand" without comprehending how inane that sounds, should not be trusted to brush his own teeth, let alone run anything bigger than an ant farm. And that would probably constitute cruelty to animals.

 

[Lancecastor]

I can think of two good reasons to vote for Trump.

They believe that it is their patriotic duty to destroy the federal government from within, because that's what the Founding Fathers wanted.
