No doubt about it, he certainly can be a dick.
But 2016 was more than that.

This is the plan...
White House
"MAGA proposals are a threat to the very soul of this country."
I guess if your presidency is up in flames you might as well light the whole country on fire...

Approval rating up an average of 10 points, a near 70% chance to take the Senate and House odds doubling in the last 60 days. Up in flames? Uh...okay. |

All they want to do is NOT talk about Trump's legal issues, not confront reality and gaslight their followers. It's about shifting and controlling narratives, nothing more. Pot, meet kettle. |

Biden is doing great... "58% disapprove of the president" graphics.reuters.com/USA-BIDEN/POLL/nmopagnqapa/"U.S. President Joe Biden's public approval rating fell modestly this week, a poor sign for his Democratic Party's hopes in the Nov. 8 midterm elections, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll completed on Tuesday." |

Nobody said he was doing great - The numbers are coming up substantially. projects.fivethirtyeight.com/biden-approval-rating/The Ipsos poll looks like an outlier based on the average of other polls conducted in the same timeframe. Even Rasmussen, which heavily leans right, has a significantly higher number. |

Optimism is a good personality trait. I think optimistic people are actually happier. And happy people make others happy. But realistic expectations are good too. "The latest figures include 24% who Strongly Approve of the job Biden is doing and 45% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -21." www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/biden_administration/prez_track_sep02But hey, we will see. |

Welp...I guess this is the plan... White House Twitter: T he MAGA agenda represents an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our Republic. It doesn’t respect our Constitution. It doesn’t believe in the rule of law. And it doesn’t recognize the will of the people. Dude, this could get ugly. Hopefully this guy will just get voted out of office. Yes, the MAGA agenda - not the MAGA people. |

What's realistic about running a candidate back for president in 2024 who's in their 80's, violated campaign laws in 2016, confided with Russia to harm Ukraine and Biden's son, lost his re-election campaign in 2020, pressured state officials into taking illegal action to declare him the winner, pressured the vice president into not certifying his opponent as the winner, led an angry mob of protestors/"proud boys" = domestic terrorists to attack congress and the vice president, stole highly classified, top secret documents on the way out of the White House, refused to give them back to the FBI and cooperate, then had them seized by the FBI, and is currently being investigated for multiple criminal charges? You think that you guys have any chance against whoever we send up there?FWIW, you're assuming that its going to Biden. I'm not so sure. It could just as easily be Harris. |

sdsuball, you asked me why I support Trump. I'm not a Trump supporter, I hope he doesn't run. But whoever the republicans run, he or she will be demonized too.
I don't think you are seeing what is going on.
"The MAGA agenda". not the MAGA people? Come on man. "A threat to the very soul of the country". Every movie needs a villain. Every movement needs an enemy. MAGA they are the enemy. A threat to democracy, the soul of the country, our very existence...what should we do with such people? They are not people, they are MAGA!
I can't believe what a bad idea this is...it's insanely dark...and we have seen it played out multiple times in human history.

Incompetance. Do you even go grocery ery shopping or to the gas station? The border with its rape trees, cartel wrist bands, get aways, fentanyl traffic contributing to 100K+ overdoses annually and the "border is secure"? Their alignment with Digital book burners is exposed. And he is hiring an army of Lois Lerner "wanna be"s. How else can they get their promotions from the Democrat lifers already ensconced at the IRS? BTW, who does the IRS Union contribute to? And you are afraid of kooks with horns and flag poles from 18 months ago but your chances of getting car jacked is going thru the roof but ho hum? Scapegoatism, Vindictivness, Incompetance, Totalitarianism but other than that...great job and great speech  Yes, I go grocery shopping and get gas. Blaming the president for the price of milk is about as logical as the rest of the party's mantra, victimhood and racism. Oh, and don't forget thier sworn declaration and pledge to the worst president in modern history. Here's the thing: The influential and powerful in the Republican party shirk accountability: They voted to not impeach Trump twice. They stood for the attacks on the press, they stood for the traitorous behavior. Even now, when that person is under investigation for ESPIONAGE.....Does Kevin McCarthy care? Does Mitch McConnell? Rubio? Scott? Stefanik? Greene? Boebert? No. Party over country. Party over Constitution. Party over oath. Or just remove the word party and replace it with Trump. I am not afraid of kooks with flags - I'm afraid of insurrectionists and domestic terrorists. Downplaying something that has happened twice in 200 years is bold, I'll say. I am more afraid of a political party allowing that extremism to happen and standing in solidarity with the people who perpetrated it. Your whataboutism is boring and lacks logical common sense. Biden's disapproval ratings are readily available for all to see. The majority knows he is incompetant and likely not really in charge. The pupet masters are in panic mode and using the age old strategy of going negative and going negative hard when they are down politically. True believers will respond to the call for out and out hatred of their fellow Americans because they always lap up the pablum fed to them and will obey but this is a low point that looks ominously and historically familiar and will not age well. |

True believers will respond to the call for out and out hatred of their fellow Americans because they always lap up the pablum fed to them and will obey but this is a low point that looks ominously and historically familiar and will not age well. Not the .moment of enlightenment you were looking for. First, stop using the term "true believers"....it's a hilarious self-own that lacks awareness of the cult you're in. Secondly, Biden's year two August approval rating is higher than Trump's (41%), Clinton's (41%}, Reagan's (41%} and is in line with everyone in the last 50 years, save for the Bush duo. news.gallup.com/poll/329384/presidential-approval-ratings-joe-biden.aspxYour last statement is tone-deaf and ignorant. Much like your party, you have a massive persecution complex. When Trump called the Democrats Fascists in 2020, nobody really said a word. Why? Democrats aren't spreading White nationalism and bigotry with their political beliefs. This isn't the Holocaust, which is what every pathetic and extreme attempt to equate this lends itself towards. I studied the Holocaust extensively, for years. Joe Biden isn't going to round up the Jews and the Gypsies to be sent on train cars to the gas chambers. He's not going to have death squads patrolling your neighborhood. This is distractionist politics by a delusional party, nothing more. It screams of this: |

"To do evil a human being must first of all believe that what he's doing is good... Ideology - that is what gives devildoing its long-sought justification and gives the evildoer the necessary steadfastness and determination. That is the social theory which helps to make his acts seem good instead of bad in his own and others' eyes, so that he won't hear reproaches and curses but will receive praise and honors."
You may not see it aztecryan, (or maybe you see it and don't care?) but I guarantee you half the country does. We've seen what the left can do historically. And we've seen what the left has been doing the last 14 years. We see how they treat conservatives socially. We see that they don't think we are wrong, they think we are evil. And just now, with the pandemic, we see what they are willing to do to those who disagree with them if they have all the power.

I'm sorry, but this is hilarious...(Now at least we know your lame attempts at trolling were real, so there's that) The victimhood is strong. Republicans are being persecuted and thrown in j....wait, no they aren't. They are still here, rolling back civil rights and women's autonomy. Still here marginalizing LGBTQ rights, still here promoting voter suppression and myths about voter fraud. Still here promoting racism, bigotry, extremist violence (Actual "real" violence)....Spare me, please. The hyperbole is out of control and you are out of your depth. I must have missed when Democrats "had all the power." When did that happen? The last 14 years? We had a Republican in office (or at least someone who claimed to be a conservative) for four disastrous years. We're seeing the consequences of that now, as that person is under investigation in four different jurisdictions for various crimes. A spine would come in handy here. |

Yeah, I figured you would answer something like that. Complete dismissal and an attack to boot!  For the people in the gallery, he is your true believer. Maybe you can understand why there is concern. He's the type of person we are worried about being in power. |
