Typical? Ya know Pete, that’s probably the most prejudicial comment I have ever read. He has no body piercings, no tats or even a bottle of Jack in his hand but yet you have surmised that he isn’t worth standing shoulder to shoulder with. You’ve never heard him speak, you do not know his family or if he fought in the Nam or anything of significance yet you have openly provided a full judgment as to whether he’s worthy to be associated with the human race. Even though you’re a democrat I’ve always considered you to be an intelligent person but your statement is so incredibly naive and childish I................never mind.
'Note: Hey Pete, me again. If that guy was burning down a building and wearing a vote for Biden hat on, Funny thing. If the guy had a vote for Biden hat on and was burning down someone’s business, I’m pretty sure Pete would proclaim him to be some sort of hero.
Never seen a Biden hat. Biden is a candidate for the highest office in the world,not a shock jock with a following of groupies that don't know the difference between patriotism and hero worship
They’re out there Pete. Just because you haven’t seen them doesn’t mean they aren’t there. Matter of fact, the hats go for around 9 beans to $30.00 and yes, people are buying them. Now, about the “groupie” thing. If I liked being around people, I too would be going to a Trump rally and I definitely know the difference between patriotism and hero worship. Unlike you, I AM a combat veteran who got a little bloody for my country. You just love judging people and throwing them into a box don’t ya Pete. To give you a little benefit of some doubt, maybe it’s just a habitual thing because you are so used to throwing envelopes into a box. How about some Biden T-shirts Pete? https://www.minnpost.com/wp-content...yBidenSupporters640.png?fit=640,445&strip=all
And I seldom see a post of yours that isn't insulting to others. Why so hostile; it's tiresome. By all means, vote for more government control, removal of your rights, open borders and higher taxes. Voting will be difficult for me this year; I can't stand Trump but there's no way in hell I'd vote for the senile Biden who will barely get to warm up the presidential chair before being whisked aside for Kamala to assume the position (see what I did there?) It's so depressing to be an American right now.
Beth, every time one of you wonderful conservative post almost anything, it is in direect contravention of what this nation stands for. The party of Trump is not the Republican Party. The republicans, although I disagree with their stance on many many many issues, were always the party of honesty and fair play, upright and out front, party of fiscal restraint.. Able and willing to make cognizant arguments to support their position. What you guys have now is the party of trump. What Republican values has he shown? Respect for marriage and family? A republican virtue for sure. FAIL Respect for tradition and decorum Another traditional Republican virtue. Fail Respect for rule of law? Another Republican value Fail. Love of God and religion? Man never been in a church before the presidency? uses the holy book as a prop Fail. Honors our military and Veterans? Yet another fail. You can call it what you will but he damn sure is not a republican. You all are RINO's, the correct appellation would be trumpettes. I wish all you faithful would actually take the time and go through what you really believe, in what our nation should stand for, what a president should represent, how a president should act, and ask yourself, is the damage this jerk is causing really worth the cost to my grandchildren, for a few years of our nation losing its path?
That is campaign paraphernalia Bobby, did not exist before Biden became a candidate. The ever present MAGA hats and the plethora of Trump flags,banners are nothing but fan worship!
Uh Pete. Re-read what you wrote, think for a while and then get back with me. Hint: When did the Trump paraphernalia first appear? - Hint #2. Who buys ANY paraphernalia for ANY candidate, jock, musician(s) etc if it isn’t the fans of that person or group? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fan_(person)
Now that this portion has been moved to the Biden thread instead of the meme thread, I feel a little more comfortable going point for point with your no-reference, no citation opinion and in at least two cases, downright prevarications. 1. respect for wife and family: It has NEVER been proven that D. Trump has ever physically cheated on his wife, Melania and as far as respecting his family, find me a family that has been treated better. 2. Respect for tradition and decorum: What traditions has Donald flagrantly defied? None. 3. Respect for rule of law? What part of the Constitution of the United States has D. Trump stepped on? None. 4. God and Religion? You wrote that Donald has never stepped foot in a church in his life. Lie 5. Honors our military and veterans: Another prevarication. With the exception of his distaste for McCain, you’ll have to show me where D. Trump has shown ANY dishonor for the military or veterans. 6. As far as being a republican, nope, he’s not and although the issue might escape me, I don’t think he’s ever really claimed to be a staunch republican. 7. I think you’ll find that most people who vote republican are “conservatives” and “independents” but are again forced into a box with a name on it, ergo, republican.
Well, if it makes you feel better, Trump was a democrat until 2009 or thereabouts. And as I said (many times), I am not a Trump supporter, but a conservative. I will vote Republican and hope for the best. I have no party affiliation and in fact voted for BOTH of the Clintons. So you can climb down off your high-horse because you obviously know nothing about me or the other conservatives here. I don't want the liberal extremists to ruin my country. And once again, you can't resist name calling. And FYI, there is no "typical" Trump supporter. We are all individuals.
Which brings up a good question of * who in public office is really a democrat or a republican*? Most certainly Bernie Sanders is not a fundamental democrat but yet ran on the democratic ticket. D. Trump was a self proclaimed democrat but has since said he’s a conservative and ran on the republican ticket. Both Biden and Harris exhibit left wing / liberal platforms but only on a few planks exhibit traditional democratic observances. They both seem to spew a lot of the Bernie and Cortez rhetoric without any thought of how John Q. Taxpayer is going to pay for it other than to jack up the taxes which is both a democrat and socialist tendency. If all the multimillionaires and billionaires in this country were to be taxed 90%, there still isn’t a few trillion dollars to be had from those sources. I do digress. Now, whatever the heck alt-right and alt-left really are I have no idea and couldn’t really care less. I personally hold onto mostly conservative values whilst enjoying being an independent but in the case of this election, I have to vote republican without being a republican. .
Equally important-- who in the voting public is really a democrat or a republican? (My husband is a registered Republican, but he supported the Clintons, too. )
