LOL. This thread pretty much went as I would have expected. Telling people who arent in touch with reality, that they arent in touch with reality just leads to insults, and personal attacks.

People defend their internal narrative that way when reality does not line up.

The OP nailed it. The responses demonstrated it perfectly. Many of them making claims that are demonstrably not true. Trump gained support since the election was the funniest one.

It's mind blowing that people still believe Trump is flawless and doing an amazing job. The White House is in absolute chaos. They are plagued by scandal every single day. He barely has any staff and the staff he does have are constantly fighting, getting fired, or quitting. Our allies despise the man and are abandoning the US. He praises ruthless dictatorships while condemning democracy. Nothing is getting done/no legislation is getting passed. He's regressing important advancements and steps in progress. For example, he's ending civil rights progress. Who the heck stops civil rights progress? What kind of sick sociopath do you have to be to think getting rid of that is a good thing?

His health is not well. He's reported as being very angry and isolated, he's gaining weight, he's still rage tweeting about the things that consume his thoughts like Russia, he wandered out of the Israel meeting looking disoriented.

Hate crimes have risen dramatically. Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists are gaining more ground than they've had since the 60s. The world is feeling more unstable, chaotic, and violent.

The list just never ends. Yet you still have tons of people, like most of those on this board saying all these FACTS don't exist, and he's the greatest thing ever.

Is this is a genuine mental disorder among right-wingers to dismiss the never ending chaos as a good thing?
I try not to judge the world just by CD and it's difficult sometimes to tell if a poster is just trolling to get reactions.

Just look at some of the reactions you've gotten so far. I can't tell if they are serious. Perhaps partly because I agree with you. Anyone still pro Trump, must either have their head in the sand, or is seriously mentally deficient.

The facts don't seem to matter. One would think, besides all things you've listed, that his first foreign trip which had leaders rolling their eyes and looking stunned, especially regarding his speech about NATO, would be some cause for concern.

It's not just political opponents in the US that are calling out Trump, but important world leaders.

It's not some US right/left agenda battle. The rest of the world doesn't see as that. They see a pathetic man who doesn't have the knowledge or even the brain power to be president. His pathological desire to be noticed aside.

Calling people Nazis is what?

What's the end goal here?

there is more wrong than right about this post.
talk about refusing to see reality.


you complain that Trump praises dictators and condemns democracy?
yet you were pleased when Obama did exactly that?
hypocrite


you call it regressing important advancements. we voted for him so he would role back terrible regulation barak Obama did by fiat because he could not get it passed in congress.


reality is we simply see things very differently. face it your side lost and Barak Obama said it best elections have consequences.

Actually, according to this Politico poll it's just that - Poll: Support for Trump impeachment rises - POLITICO

"The results underscore the intense partisan divisions following last year’s rancorous election. A wide majority of self-identified Democratic voters, 71 percent, want Congress to impeach Trump. But more than three-quarters of GOP voters, 76 percent, don’t think Congress should begin impeachment proceedings."

Sorry to break into your little high-falutin attempt to take down us Trump supporters, but it's very much a left/right battle. You folks just want to dress it up as something else. Just be honest...libs hate Trump. He beat them at the polls and they are trying as hard as they can to get him removed from office. Quit pretending it's anything more than that.

I'm liberal.

But nothing you said was factual. Yet, you just ragged on people for not believing that facts don't exist.

Post like this gives us real liberals a bad name. This is just a "feelings" post.

Perhaps I could of said it better.

What I said "It's not some US right/left agenda battle. The rest of the world doesn't see as that"

What it means " The rest of the world doesn't see it as some US right/left agenda battle."

My post was about how the world and world leaders see Trump. They see him as a buffoon.

The irony though of this left right garbage, is that Trump isn't really a Republican at heart. He's an opportunist.

did you personally talk to all of these world leaders? Do you have written affidavits for that claim or are you just running your mouth?
