Seems all they care about is bullets, Bibles, banks, big business, and billionaires.
Based on their behavior at the voting booth.. its safe to say they barely bother to believe in facts. Conservatives want to ban some of our best and brightest because they have brown skin. They look up to boring blond bimbos like Ivanka Trump. Yet, they meet black women like Michelle Obama with bigotry, bitterness and belligerence.
I can barely believe a brilliant country like this would elect such a bumbling, bigoted, buffoon. Basically, this bipolar blob named "Trump" wants to ban bills that give basic health benefits to broken homes below the poverty line.
Then there's the bold backroom deals with bankable businesses and making bad behavior a virtue. Cons engage in lies, corruption, and bogus birther-ism to bring out bias and blur reality.
How can anyone with a brain back birthers and backwater bog dwellers who think billionaires with boathouses are blameless? You really buy this "business man" bully as someone to bring you a blissful, bright and burden-free America? I call bull***t.
Call me bitter, but banks, border obsession and bigotry is not the most brilliant way to bridge barriers and bring benefits to all Americans.
The Republican brand of "becoming better" (or make America Great again) makes my blood boil. Great for who? Billionaires, banks, big businesses and blond bimbos?
Feels like a breakdown of society when bureaucracy can't block abominations this big.

I had originally given some thought to answering all your charges on a line-by-line basis, but upon closer inspection, your accusations all boil down to the same thing: the resentments of the usual collection of losers, chronic complainers, misfits and malcontents against anyone who brings more dollars, brain cells, or scruples to the table than they can.
Your pointless diatribe begins, as they always do, with an attempt to paint all of us who do not subscribe en toto to the "progressive" Gospel as, by definition, racists, gun fanatics, homophobes, xenophobes and Bible-thumpers. And of course, in your mindset, we're all white, all wealthy, and all live in some exclusive gated neighborhood where we never encounter the grit, sweat, imperfections and disappointments of real life.
And they still say "progressives" don't resort to stereotypes.
I spent most of my 45-year career in the transportation and warehousing industries -- usually working outside that sanitary, 9-to-5, "Ward Cleaver" world. Along the way, I watched a field previously pretty much reserved for married white male heads of households open its doors, mostly voluntarily, and simply because changing demographics made it economically both sensible and necessary.
"Backroom deals"? Yep -- I'll admit that they happen. I was never close enough to the centers of power to learn much, but I could recognize that (1) it's always been that way and (2) the desire for artificial advantage and power transcends all ethnicities and all classes; and there have been no stronger practitioners of this "art" than the Clinton-Obama team.
Big money? A lot of us over here in the private sector spend many years, and accept much higher risks, simply because we prefer it to spending years struggling on the lower rungs of a "Korporate" ladder -- only to stagnate and be told that we're "well placed" while playing out the string on some dead end.
I'm not much different from everybody else; my struggle didn't leave me much better off than my Dad, who rose at five A M for forty years to milk twice a day -- interspersed with a long day in the fields under a hot sun -- or mucking out a feedlot on a cold winter day; and acting as his own mechanic, accountant and veterinarian to the limits of his own abilities.
I found my own path - no "conventional" heirs, but for over twenty years I've been close to a large, driven, struggling family who emigrated here rather than waste their lives in the backwaters of the Third World, and to a couple who were just the right age to be my own descendants -- and just as a couple of childless aunts and uncles did for me. For some of us, our personal lives don't "fit the pattern" -- but we chart our own path without succumbing to the cop-out referred to as "identity politics".
For I can find my own way / if you find yours, that's fine / I won't stick my nose in yours / so keep yours out of mine!

Didn't you hear Trump's inauguration speech? Put your emotions aside and use your brain for once. People who voted Trump have been beat down the past 6-8 years. If the democrat's policies worked the voters would have voted in another democrat. Now the burden belongs to Trump. Let's see what he can do. All I know is the past 6 years for me have been a major employment struggle. 5 jobs in 6 years and all low pay. I hold a bachelors too btw. This election was all about jobs and economy of the beat down Americans. They elected Trump. Get over it.
I get the impression most of OPs complaints were simply fabricated because they started with a "B" and it would otherwise ruin the attempt at poetic alliteration in the form of a rhetorical question the OP likely is unable to debate anyway.

Of course he didn't listen to Trump's speech. People like the OP solely get their news reinterpreted through their Facebook feed. They are still hung up on campaign retoric and are completely incapable of independent thought. Hence all of their "views" sound suspiciously the same, factual errors and all.
