I may have voted for Trump, but I resent people like you implying that I blindly follow him or am waiting for some “second coming”. There are people that do, I get that, but not all. It seems to me people like you would rather focus on that unproductive aspect than move forward. Or perhaps you’re just another non-American trying to get a rise out of everyone and enjoying it. You wouldn’t be the only one here by any stretch - pathetic, if that’s the case.

Defending the moron after the state he left the US in is definitely a case of blindly following him.

 

He is an ex president so people will comment on anything he says. Perhaps its best if he shut his pie hole and moved onto his next con.

Oh, it's about way more than just Trump, buddy. "Poor Mitch"?  Wow, do you often stick up for Republicans, or just when it suits you?

Just when they have the ßalls to tell the truth.

Probably hurts as much as your 'therapy' comment. Not interested living anywhere near your head, even if it was, indeed, rent free. Trump, despite all of your deflection attempts, is pretty much still an item, still a part of USA politics and very relevant to GOP politics.

Albeit a hugely negative part of USA politics.....sad that such an amazing country has fallen so low.

Your posting history speaks for itself. You follow Trump, criticizing him sometimes when he didn't go the full distance (in your opinion). The accompanying anti-Democrat, Left, Anyone-opposed-to-Trump etc. narrative is well in place as well.

 

Posters do not have to be USA citizens to comment on these topics. Posts by Trump supporters trying to get a rise out of people and enjoying it are a dime a dozen. Yours included.

 

Criticizing others for talking about Trump on a Trump-related topic makes as much sense as the rest of the MAGA "agenda".

I had an interesting conversation with an (Australian) Trump supporter the other day.

He started off by denying that anyone had invaded the capitol..

When he was shown a Reuters article (from TVF) confirming same-then claimed that they were Antifa infiltrators..

refused to give any sources for his information..and

then went on to claim that people were sheep and the truth would out eventually.

 

I guess that that is the state of play with the hard core 'paleo-conservatives'.

It will be up to the good citizens of the USA to reject such simplistic,dualistic thinking (perhaps they have already done so) and get back on track.

 

President Biden's election victory surely indicates that,generally speaking,they wish to do so.

A lot is to do with the fake right wing media outlets. Pushing conspiracy theories and lies. Most Trump supporters only watch Fox or OAN. They live in a bubble of fake news and lies.

Been there, done that....made an excuse to go to the toilet and never went back....complete and utter loons.

 

I hoped to avoid the question of Trump, but he (an American) couldn't resist bringing him up in order to 'educate' me.

Well, as indicated in my recent post to ‘Simplynot’, I’ll run along now, so you can all have a good laugh and talk about me as if I wasn’t here. This way you can all agree and nod your heads and won’t that be just peachy? Isn’t it refreshing when everybody thinks the same way and there is no opposing view? How boring...I’ll be fine, as there are plenty of intelligent non-Trump supporters I can converse with where we can leave the conversation and still be civil and respectful to one another afterward.

Good luck with that. Try using facts, it may help with trump supporters, but they wont be friends for long.

Thank you for the "heartfelt" well wishes, but I don't want or need your "help".

Its ok, anyone that supports trump needs help whether they realize it or not. Glad to be of support, its the liberal way to help those in need.
