🇺🇸🇺🇸 Trump American Bad Ass!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[canpakes]

… I'm fascinated to learn by what standard Trump could possibly be construed as a "bad ass".

There are none.

I don’t know, Chap. Trump looked too soft and fluffy even for that.

Yes, but actor is to cowboy as Trump is to a Wall-Street tough guy. Soft hands fit for that.

Your whole post is a neat dissection of Trump's public image, to which your opponents can (it appears) muster no counter-argument apart from abuse. That is in itself a compliment to your writing.

But, given the topic of the thread, the sentence quoted above was a very appropriate conclusion. Well done.

I do not think the writing or the point was as great you want it to be even if Gadianton was successful.

There was no abuse.

There are two key points in Gadianton's writing, the cliché that Trump is Hitler, and Gadianton's bigotry toward "uneducated" voters. I acknowledged the cliché and acknowledged the bigotry. I have no intention of countering his points, instead I am acknowledging his successful communication. Doing so is not abusive.

You need to get together with ajax, so that he can give you an eye exam. Gad specifically wrote, “But he's no Hitler.”

I mean, I wouldn’t want to think that you were purposefully lying, just to troll, or anything. : D

Someone once said that Trump was very good at making himself look like the image of the kind of President that a particular group of voters imagined they would be like if they were President. But looking was about as far as it got.

I never imagined an orange President with hair plugs.

Newsflash:

People often quote things said by other people because those things in themselves seem apt and true, completely independent of who the people were who originally said them.

Who knew?

So far as I can see, Trump has no enduring commitments to anything beyond his own power and fame. To secure those, he tries his best to look like whatever he thinks his potential supporters will vote for. Sometimes the image frays at the edges: for instance, his attempts to win the Bible Belt vote did not look so good after he failed to be able to show any specific knowledge of the contents of the Bible. Still, he waved it around from time to time, which was apparently all the voters in question needed from him. it's a low bar to have to cross.

There are educated people who follow Trump and are willing to lie and say the election was stolen when they don't believe it, because to them all that matters is winning. Preserving what's left of their short lives with the lifestyle they are accustomed to has no price.

As Canpakes emphasized, I said Trump is no Hitler. And that should concern his followers.

Hitler didn't need to compromise, Trump does. What will he do when he doesn't need to?

Have the right-wingers who know they are lying as they cry "stolen election" thought about what Trump will do once he becomes the Supreme Leader of the United States?

He's not really a Christian. He throws his own to the wolves as necessary, as he did with the capital rioters. He's not really pro gun, or pro-anything that he fights for; he's just doing all that to be popular. He had no problem committing the arch-sin against fiscal conservativism; sending out billions of dollars in "stimulus," with his own name signed to the checks. And he was all for another round of stimulus.

Once Trump is your Dear Leader and doesn't need to compromise, what will he do then?

It's a dice roll. You have no idea what he'll decide he stands for. Nothing he's done so far are things he really cares about himself. I give it higher odds that a Donald Trump made life-long president by a Supreme Court who just makes it up and says he won, will take guns off the street before Democrats do.

He never Saved the Children®. Sad. Sadass.
