Official Donald Trump for President thread (2 Viewers)

For some reason that reminds me of Boaty McBoatface...which popped into my head the other night when I thought of Trump as Gropey McGropeface. :bag:  

 
Trump is bringing Obama's half brother from Kenya to the debate.  Is he stupid enough to think that attacking Obama somehow may lead him to victory?  Or is he just ####### with everyone and burning the world down as he goes now?

It's because Obama has made him look stupid and Trump thinks this is his way of getting even. So dumb.

 
How are people still going to these rallies?  He is an embarrassment.

I feel bad for his kids. They worship him and he is ####ting on their brand and inheritance.

Does he even talk about the wall or anything other than the election being rigged or hillary being a criminal anymore?

Pretty sure it can be a little bit of both.

Only a total idiot votes for Trump at this point.

There is SOME truth to this. There are a lot of idiot voters for Trump.

But If the only one thinks the ONLY reason people are voting for Trump is because they're an idiot then they're "Holocaust denier" level* ignoring how bad the other candidate is in terms of personality and to a lesser extent - belief system.

*Okay, not that bad. I was trying to create a word picture.

Two of my neighbors just put Trump signs in their yard yesterday. The part that baffles me is that they choose now to put the signs in their yard? I thought this is when people would be pulling sings OUT of their yard and these two old cranks are just now putting them IN their yard?

I honestly think a lot of it is people just having fun. 

They get to yell "Lock her up!" and "Build the wall!" It's not a political rally so much as it is a cathartic event, almost like a rock concert.

It's the 4th quarter, homie. We gotta start draining some 3-pointers.

I used to play in a board games every week with a couple friends, my future wife, and my uncle.  My aunt worked part time at McDonalds for a while and she befriended a 19 year old kid who she could tell was struggling with self esteem issues.  He never had a father growing up and lived with his mom who was a bit of a nutcase.  My uncle became something of a father figure for him and we took him into our group to give him friends and someplace to belong. 

He was a nice enough kid and very smart, but whenever the game turned against him he'd begin to sabotage the game by doing stupid stuff that made no sense just to ruin the game for the rest of us and get it over faster.  What Trump is doing now reminds me so much of that.  He's losing the game, so he's flipping the board over.  Not enough hugs as a child, I guess.

Groping women against their will and talking about rigged elections must have really turned them on, I guess. :oldunsure:

My boy also has a larger vocabulary. 

He also talks about Donald Trump because he hears his name in the background all the time. He goes "they said donald trump again!"  He also knows that H is for Hillary. :)

With most campaigns, I would say this was a tactical shift in emphasis for the general election. With Trump... well, he probably just forgot.

My dad definitely is, we talked last night.  

My mom is, she won't admit it, but she is.

Both are single-issue voters.  It's all about abortion to them.  

Both are willfully ignorant.  Hillary is pro-choice, so that's it for them.

My sister is a religious type and some mega-church charlatan said Clinton/DNC is the devil so she is apparently voting Trump.

This is actually the single most confusing thing about this election for me. How anyone can equate Trump with any type of religious values or any version of morality is truly incomprehensible. I mean, really? Jesus wants you to vote for this guy?

I told her to check with the 2 Corinthians to get their opinion.

There are a LOT of people in a LOT of churches that are using reason and being practical.  My parents are not two of those people.

No, it's a vote against Hillary, and against pro-choice.  

Trump says that he is pro-life (today anyway) so that's close as possible for them.  

 
My uncle was a Jeb! supporter who was very critical of Trump.  I blocked his Facebook updates anyway when he kept sending me Jeb! stuff, but I at least thought he was pretty firmly AntiTrump.  My wife, who has not blocked his updates, has informed me that he is now sending Pro-Trump, defeat Hillary memes.  I've considered sending him this.

I've pointed out in this thread before that I am a practicing Catholic and this election is a big crisis of conscience for our church members and priests. For many members of the church, abortion is issue #1 by a mile. And whether Trump believes abortion should be ended or not, at least with him in office there is the prospect for getting more conservative justices on the Supreme Court. And while most agree that he personally represents very little of our beliefs, he is seen as more of a Hillary preventative than anything else.

My posts in this thread should make it clear that I'm not aligned with that point of view and think Trump is a reprehensible choice, but for right or wrong it is a belief held by a lot of members of my church.

I pretty much don't understand the single issue mindset at all, so that's probably my disconnect. I understand and respect the pro-life position, even though I disagree with it; voting solely on that issue is something that I'll just never understand.

There's a lot of things about this election cycle I don't understand. Single issue voters are one the least of them.

Does there ever come a point where those opposing abortion give up on it ever becoming illegal again and fight it on different terms?  It's been what...43 years? The court has not been liberal that whole time.  And it's not as if abortion ends when it becomes illegal. 

Perhaps we focus instead on health care, poverty, child care, a livable wage, education, prevention of unwanted pregnancy, etc.

They believe abortion is no different than taking a baby out of a bassinet and stabbing it through the heart.  If that's your mindset, I guess I can understand it being the only issue that matters.

Of course, they don't believe in using birth control either, so...

Even so, the President doesn't get to decide whether abortion is legal or not. And we had a conservative majority on the Supreme Court for decades and Roe still stands. The leap from electing Trump (or anyone else) President to ending abortion is so far fetched and quite frankly, insane, that it is incomprehensible.
