reporting trolling is up to someone else, I almost never report stuff to mommy, but it's a shame it takes that to stop it

I am completely okay not having respect for Trump voters, because neither Trump personally , nor his stated political positions, much of his past actions as President and his current candidacy is worthy of respect.

Calling it like I see it. Others are free to call it like they see it.


It’s been 9 years of the same sh**.

If they’re still supporting the reprehensible POS, we don’t have to respect them. Clearly they lack decency.

If a busload of people who worked with Biden were dissing him not for being old, but for his character and ethics, I'd hope someone would keep telling me to wake the hell up and stop being a fool, if I supported him.

Sure, as a politician plenty of people don't like Biden, but there's a difference when a lot of people around someone can't respect him either. And most of them agree with Trump's politics, they're not Democrats.

My point is that discounting to the slag heap all who disagree with you politically makes about as much sense as doing that to those of a religious persuasion different than your own.

So what is Mormon's wear Magic Underpants?

That doesn't make all of them idiots with zero value.

Catholics believe in a Holy Ghost and Original Sin, but does that mean they should be shunned?

I think not.

The two have nothing to do wit each other, and you know it.

I don't respect Trump voters for the reasons I stated. If Donny had more character or was worthy of respect and votes, it would be a different story.

And many Trump voters are also religious bigots.

I don’t think much of her dad, and I’m about as not onboard with Liz Cheney, but she has my respect. She’s 100 miles above Trump in character, and has the usual faults of most people.

I have to agree with Geno
I get voting for McCain
I get voting for Rommney
I get supporting Christie or Haley for the nomination
These are all honorable Americans that want the best for our country. None got my vote but they all get my respect
Trump on the other hand
Not honorable. Doesn't give a crap about the country.
No respect.
He disgusts me like no other

I don't think it was bad for people to vote for Trump the first time but circumstances have changed.

3 MAGA SCOTUS justices, appointed, to add tot he ones already there. A majority MAGA appeals court. MAGA tearing the nation's soul apart. It was predicted to be bad to vote for him the first time.

Believe it or not, some of us saw it coming...

Trump names Tulsi Gabbard, RFK Jr. to presidential transition team

This is HUGE. This proves that Trump has bipartisan support. RFK comes from the THE most famous Democrat family in modern history, and Trump got his endorsement. And then he got Tulsi's endorsement. Trump is truly building a big tent party. Let's go!!!
