    Which I think is the point of the whole thread. The things @dachuda86 mentioned are the things they claim to want and to be in favor of supporting. But as you show in reality they have no problem with the opposite of those things.

    Here’s someone at least being honest about his support for Trump. To my earlier point: They see societal change and liberalism as an existential threat.

    First.. you have to look at which these people are polling... that's why I don't put a lot of stock into it..

    I have a couple of buddies who are Republicans and they are not Trump fans, but they both stated there was no way in hell they were voting for Hillary.. if it were someone else they may voted Democrat for the first time...

    Trump is not Republican... his values are not republican values... he's just running under their banner.

    The ex-Gov of Ohio Kasich is what I would compare a Republican too...

    If Trump would have won under the Democratic banner would you then say all Democrats?

    The unsupportive ones tell pollsters they're independents.

    Unearned? You mean the poor. Those blood suckers don’t deserve the support and attention Unless it is their fetus’s health that is in danger.

    Well he would never get the nomination. If Al Franklin had to resign because of allegations there is no chance in hell Trump would get the nomination under the democrats. So don’t pull that if trump would have won under democrats crap. Because trump is not even one tenth of a man that Franklin was. Franklin cared more for his country than trump ever did.

    Grouping everyone together is not a true statement...

    Like saying all whites are racists...

    All blacks are thugs...

    All Democrats support Hillary...

    None of the above are true statements..

    What you say is true. Not all Trump supporters are racists, want corruption, etc. But they are all okay with those things and willing to accept those things in favor of whatever else they get from Trump.

    Anyone who supports this con man is supporting racism and bigotry and corruption.

    True, Jeff Flake isn't supporting him, neither did John McCain, but Lindsey Graham and Moscow Mitch are traitors as is Ted Cruz, and many others that are currently supporting him in a clearly impeachable offense.

    They will pay for it.

    I can't wait to see @dachuda86 finding ways to ignore each new piece of evidence as it comes out. Fascinating the links some people will go in order to avoid facing the facts.

    I can agree with this...

    Lindsey and Mitch are band-wagoners.... No standards what so ever... just out for themselves...

    Well that is unfortunately what most career politicians are for - we need to purge them get younger folks in there, and severely limit lobbying.

    “lengths” but maybe “links some people will go” is better for the current cut-n-paste era. :D
