one thing you delusional people need to stop doing is trying to pin people in a corner by calling them republicans and trump supporters. every single time people say this shit to me, they're proven wrong, yet some of you don't get the hint and keep saying this.
you literally do it only to try and discredit what i'm saying, it's disgusting and dishonest.
stop being obtuse and learn to understand differing positions on things without resorting to jumps in logic all because you don't agree with them. maybe then you'll get somewhere in life.
your whole post is a straw man and ad hominem.
The bolded text is the only even somewhat relevant thing you said. And my response would be to direct you to Flake’s bill, which would fund the border wall and end the lottery. It didn’t even get a vote. The Republicans controlled what would be voted on and they didn’t even bring it up for a vote. Why?

And it does mean you’re defending them. You have said nothing negative about them yet you spend your posts trashing the Democrats. I’m a equal opportunity offender who takes a nuanced approach to the problematic elements of both parties. You just seem like a partisan and a Trump partisan at that.


The rest of your post is fluff in which you do exactly what Trump supporters do: attempt to normalize your views. Supporting Trump is not normal. It is a marker that someone is a racist, a fascist, an authoritarian and generally a pretty terrible person. My impression of you is that you are a Trump supporter and hence you probably have these other qualities. If you want to prove me wrong, defend yourself. Tell me why you aren’t a Trump supporter. But do not dare to tell me that my perceptions of Trump voters and Trump’s ideology are wrong. It’s a disgustingly idiotic and morally bankrupt ideology with supporters who have no business belonging to a free, just and democratic populace.
