There are plenty of slackasses in the military whose rank was granted solely on the basis of Affirmative Action Bingo.

Coincidentally, they tend to be the same types that shriek about Trump.

He ceased being a "strategist" the day Zero was elected, and he's been a political commentator on television. As of June of this year, he abandoned the facade of even pretending to be a republican.

How many candidates did Pres Trump beat for the Republican nomination? Then he goes and beats two of the biggest Crooks in the nation. Fuck them assholes same old shit as last time. Trump hasn't got a chance. well Fuck them news reporters.

Steve Schmidt has spent the past decade attacking republicans, which if my cipherin's correct, is well before Trump.

Schmidt, Bill Kristol, etc, are literally Republicans In Name Only, and wear the Republican hat just to provide their networks with a pretend opposition viewpoint, when in reality they're just another means of attacking mainstream republicans.

President Trump won because he got the most Votes in the primary. Then he got the most electoral votes. Isn't that the way it's suppose to be? Tell me how else should we figure who one?

Barry said Elections have consequences. Next time you sore losers will have to get more electoral votes. I didn't get a high school diploma but I think I got this figured out.

If Russia has Trump in their pockets, they're doing a shitty job of running him, he is destroying their economy and their military at every turn.

Sanctions.
Getting Nato to increase funding
Arming the Ukraine
Going after IRAN (Russia's ally in the region)
Going after the Natural gas deal between Germany and Russia (Natural gas is the bulk of Russia economy)

and there are more examples, these are just the low hanging fruit.

He added, “There is for them no such thing as objective truth anymore. What is true is what the leader says is true, what the leader believes is true. Trump has exercised that power and 40 percent of the country has submitted themselves to it. It’s extraordinary and frightening to see, but thank goodness not a majority of the country. In fact, it’s not even close to being a majority of the country.”

Very few people have any intellectual sovereignty to surrender.

It doesn't matter what political narrative you embrace, it will shape your opinions going forward, and whose opinions you value.

The president shapes the opinions of the entire party, supporters support, and then they're invested in that support.

Most of GD thought Bush was fantastic, most of GD supported even his biggest blunders. The same thing is happening now, the same thing happens on the left during Democrat administrations.

So where was this 'Republican' the past 8 years?

Did he have the same vitriol for Obama? Nope. Just vitriol for the first anti-Globalist/pro-US GOP president.

There's your sign...
Yup he's a lib posing as a RINO.

This 'test' works well BTW with many RINO's who NOW speak out against Trump, but never said a peep about the 8 year Obama shit show.

That is why it matters so much. The men who shape narratives rule the "intellectually sovereign" through the vote.

In the late 20th mindset, votes are a ratification of a power's narrative dominance, not a competition between opposing camps.

Recreating an early American approach to democracy (or building a post American one) demands breaking the narrative monopolies.

So, a GOP RINO, who supported the dumbass ideas to nominate McCain & Romney as candidates for POTUS, and then helped them lose those elections, is upset because Americans didn't do what either party wanted them to do, and elected someone from outside the swamp?

Yeah, that guy can eat shit & die.  People like Schmidt are why this country is fucked, and he's a perfect example of why it's damn near impossible to drain the swamp.
So called Republicans are no better than Democrats, just two faces of the same corrupt establishment.  May pestilence and damnation be upon them all.

In this thread we pretend Trump Bots don't exist, and by obvious extension the bots of (both) Paul(s), Obama, and et cetera.

I think 40% of the Republican voting population being unthinking sports fans is about right.  It's at least that high for the Dems as well I'd wager.  We've kniwn this since forever.

OP subject thinking Republican support is down are delusional; many.of the folks who were skeptical or suspicious of Trump are less so now, and Trump's not even up for election anyway.

The only decrease will come from Democrats as usual...even if they are dems who voted for Trump in '16

You're having trouble keeping up. Most be that "affirmative action" holding you back. No one has expressed any support for leftist ideas. But that doesn't mean they are stupid, crazy, or evil, either. Most leftists have many of the same cute values as you do, minus the racial purity garbage. We all want people to be safe and prosperous. We all like puppies and pie. Leftists see a bigger threat to liberty from corporations and conservatives see a bigger threat to liberty from government. They're both right and they're both wrong. But leftists don't want to take your guns because they hate you or because they are stupid. They want to do it because they have arrived at a different conclusion from the same facts.
