I think you do. I think Trump voters care very much about his wrongdoing. I care very much about his wrongdoing. But I've become a cynical voter who finds this red vs. blue bipolar system a miserable failure. A wise man once said, "The lesser of two evils is still evil." I don't care who "wins," America is still screwed and our lives will not be any better in four years than they are now. In fact, they will probably be worse.

This might as well be the maga motto at this point. You should have just stopped here since, after proudly informing everyone of your self imposed ignorance on the topic, there is no real reason to listen to anything else you say about it.

So give up. Is that a good plan? Cause we know what the rights plan is. An Idiocracy. Watering your lawn with Trump water.

Ignorance, no, just would rather see the actual facts. Not some illegally disclosed alleged data. Sorry, there has just been too much misinformation that the left spews , for me to blindly believe.

Do you know what self-respect means?
Self respect? Laughable. YOU voted for a guy who brought STEAKS with his name on it on stage. And you want to lecture us on self respect.

Yet you blindly believe everything Trump spews. Did you need actual facts to not drink the bleach?

Tax loopholes which shift the tax burden of essential basic public services (like Police, firefighters, schools etc.) from the wealthy to the middle class?! Someone has to pay the piper for these essential services and the everyone (including the wealthy) should carry their own load. Why do some Trump supporters champion this type of behavior (creation of and exploiting tax loopholes) of the wealthy?

What people are forgetting is that while his not paying taxes is horrible, it's his debts that are the real issue. To whom does he owe $421 million? The Russians? The Saudis? Turkey? Ukraine? Is he helping Deutsche Bank launder Russian mob money? That's the big question. Russia makes sense. Is that what Putin is holding over his head? Is he committing treason? It will eventually all come out, but meanwhile, his financial situation could be putting the United States at a huge risk.

And this is where you are wrong. I don't hang on every word Trump say's, or get over emotional about it. I also have logic and common sense to know drinking bleach is bad...apparently those on the left that seem to hate him so much cling to his words much more than I do.

And yet you blindly believe everything the NYT has spewed, even though there are no facts to back them up.
