[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only people responsible for Trump are his idiot voters. Personal responsibility (I know idiot Trumpsters only believe in that for other people; they continue to be lazy and do drugs and cry about their lot in life). [/quote]
^^^ another example of why Trump won.

People were fed up with sanctimonious, holier-than-thou liberals who feel they know better than the "idiots" - who of course are people who disagree with them politically. [/quote]

Still blaming others for your own actions? Grow a backbone. Trump voters chose a corrupt a-hole. That’s 100% on them.

Trumpsters never accept responsibility for anything. [/quote]

It says a lot about you and the PPs who don't think Americans should be able to voice their opinions and vote for the person they want to see in office. That fact happens to be one of the main strengths of this wonderful country![/quote]

The whole point is that the turds say they didn’t even want to vote for Trump but did it just to spite the liberals. But they secretly did want to vote for Trump. So talk to them about voicing their opinion — they can’t seem to do it accurately.

Who is this "they" you are talking about? First, I don't know anyone who said they voted for trump to "spite the liberals" - although the hate is so strong on the liberal side that I expect they would do the same in reverse. No, many voted for him, nose held, because Hillary and democratic policies are even worse. Why would you be surprised? Two-thirds of the country said we were moving in the wrong direction under Trump. And Hillary was promising more of the same!

And the fact that you call people who didn't vote for your candidate "turds" proves the other PP 's point.[/quote]

Honestly, no. I know many, many people from my hometown, including family members, who voted for Trump out of spite of Obama's "elitism." These are all people who exclusively listen to Fox news and right wing radio, so they have been told for years that Obama is the undoing of America, etc. If you hear something enough, you believe it and act accordingly.

The big thing is that it's a messaging that drove these people to vote the way they did. And it was definitely against their interests. All of these people live in communities that are going to be killed by the tariffs, didn't benefit from tax reform beyond a couple of bucks in their checks, and many of whom actually got healthcare for the first time because of Obama  care. Doesn't matter. The message is clear, these liberals are evil and you have to stop them from...fill in the blank.

You even see it here. The messaging is crazy. It can make anyone turn on common sense.[/quote]
