Anyone else depressed that our country elected a disgusting man to the presidency?

Just who is disgusting?


Trump negotiated that withdrawal. You’re falling for his BS.

You’re also falling for DEI/woke BS. The federal government isn’t responsible for your looney tunes schools board meetings.


Stop spitting on the grave of every single American soldier who died protecting this nation.

Trump planned to peacefully withdraw from Afghanistan, not just cede it to the Taliban. And Trump would have been intelligent enough to not withdraw if it was obvious the Taliban would just take it over again.

Suggesting anything else is akin to attacking our lovely heroic armed forces.


Pure trash. My husband served in Afghanistan twice and I lived that miserable life for decades all so you ignorant MAGA cultists can install a tinpot dictator wannabe who doesn’t respect the constitution, our troops, or our country. You can sit the f down. Not taking your BS.


Hell no. Not sitting down. I am a Trump voter and come from a military family too, you aren’t alone in that including family in combat, and it doesn’t make your point of view more valid than mine.


Trying to use the United States military in a domestic capacity should be disqualifying. He is unworthy to be in charge of the United States military.


He isn’t “trying” to do anything. He isn’t even President yet.


Amazing how voters discounted all his disgraces, you know when he was president before.

The worst of humanity?

You people are absolutely NUTS. Nuts. Nutso. Nutsy. Nutty. Nut-Nut. Nuttier than squirrel poop.


There’s probably worse somewhere on the planet, but these people truly are walking turds.

He is already lying about the border, taking credit for the last 18 months of improvement under Biden, and Mexico’s president made a fool of him in an exchange on the matter of tariffs.

He’s not any of those things. They are left wing talking points that failed because nobody believes them. (You forgot to mention Hitler but he’s not that either.)


Actually, at least 71 million Americans believes this as does the rest of the world.


Um no, the rest of the world is not.

Guess this is sarcasm.


The people I know in Europe are shocked that we would elect him again.

+1. He is unfit to be the commander in Chief.

F you both


No reasonable person with any knowledge on the matter thinks he’s remotely fit to be CiC. He’s a disgrace to our nation and an insult to our troops. His pick for Sec Def is a blinking neon example of his utter disrespect and disregard for our military, military values, and those who serve.



This is true. But then you have to ask why are Democrats losing to even a manifestly unfit, elderly cretin like Trump? I don't know anyone that likes Trump. But I know lots of people that voted for him because they fear Democrats more. And it's important to remember that these days it's Democrats that are the warmongers. Both Clinton and Biden were enthusiastic proponents of invading Iraq and throwing military force at Libya and spending decades in Afghanistan - with dismal results. It's the Republicans today who are wiser about the appropriate use of military force. As someone with a kid in the military, while I hate the disrespect that comes from Trump - particularly through wildly awful picks like Hegseth - I fear the recklessness and stupidity of Democrats more. I do believe it's Democrats - who very rarely have any personal connection to military service - who are far more likely to waste the lives of young American soldiers. Everyone signs up ready to fight. But Iraq and Afghanistan have really demonstrated how consequential political leadership is. And Democrats have nothing but disdain for soldiers. They are far more likely to squander their lives for nothing. I despise Trump, but I fear Harris and Democrats more. They are the party of stupid wars today.


Not true. The military is as diverse as the country. We have lots of democrats in uniform and even people who are earning their citizenship by way of their service in uniform. You sound like you get all your news from Fox and have limited life experiences.

No administration has done more for military families than Obama’s.

Biden had a son who served. (Trump said he’d disown his sons if they served and was embarrassed by a wounded warrior being in his presence)

It was Biden who finally supported the veterans with “burn pit” exposure.

Tammy Duckworth would like a word.

Pete Buttigeg would like a word.

The Vindeman brothers would like a word.

Shall I go on?

Time and time again, it’s the democrats who vote to take care of the service members and their families, and it’s the republicans who just vote for more defense spending.


It's not a question about benefits and support. For young officers, the entire package is pretty good these days. But Beau Biden, Tammy Duckworth, Buttigieg, Vindeman, and so on all participated in deeply stupid wars. And with Trump, Republicans had their reckoning. One of the reasons he received so much support among men is that he was the first Republican to acknowledge what a waste Iraq and 20 years in Afghanistan was. And Democrats never did that. Clinton/Biden/Harris are exactly the people that use the military for political reasons - and then saddle them with all the restrictions that make a military solution impossible. Because Biden/Clinton/Harris are lazy and don't give a damn about either strategy or the well-being of the soldiers on the ground. Their horizon is nothing more than short term political gain.

I don't trust Democrats. I think they're cynical. Harris would have been reactive to whatever was in the news that week. With no longer term thinking. Did she say anything at all about America's role in the world? No, she didn't.

I don't like Trumper Republicans. But now that I have a kid in the military and I have to think about this stuff, I trust Democrats even less.

The R base voted FOR Trump. That did not give him victory.

The swing voters voted against what the Ds delivered over the past 4 years, and apathetic D voters did not show up.

The question is not how you “feel” about it. The questions are why did D voters not turn up (and how to address that), and what policies did the swing voters recoil against (and how to address that).

This is all just so breathtakingly dumb.
Where to even start?
I’m busy but I’ll remind everyone that the voters that got us into Afghanistan and Iraq, are the same voters that gave us Trump.
Same idiots. Different decades. Same morons.
Too ignorant to learn from the past. Stopping Putin at Ukraine is the only long term solution.
And the US just voted against that.

Hell no. Not sitting down. I am a Trump voter and come from a military family too, you aren’t alone in that including family in combat, and it doesn’t make your point of view more valid than mine.


Trying to use the United States military in a domestic capacity should be disqualifying. He is unworthy to be in charge of the United States military.


He isn’t “trying” to do anything. He isn’t even President yet.


He is already lying about the border, taking credit for the last 18 months of improvement under Biden, and Mexico’s president made a fool of him in an exchange on the matter of tariffs.


This is hilarious. You think there has been improvement from Biden? I can assure you that Trump isn’t taking credit for something that doesn’t exist.

Pure trash. My husband served in Afghanistan twice and I lived that miserable life for decades all so you ignorant MAGA cultists can install a tinpot dictator wannabe who doesn’t respect the constitution, our troops, or our country. You can sit the f down. Not taking your BS.


Hell no. Not sitting down. I am a Trump voter and come from a military family too, you aren’t alone in that including family in combat, and it doesn’t make your point of view more valid than mine.


You should sit down because you are an idiot who believes the Trump lies. If your point of view is based on lies, it is automatically NOT valid. Buh bye.
