Florida Trump supporters say they'd believe him if 'he said the moon is purple'

[UCmeNdc]

Supporters of President Donald Trump lined up to see their hero in Tampa Tuesday and many of them confessed that their support extends beyond a vote.

The Herald-Tribune interviewed many supporters, who confessed that they place him first and foremost.

“Promises made, promises kept, that’s what this man does,” said Gene Huber, a 48-year-old car salesman. “If he says he’s going to turn the moon purple I believe him.”

Huber was clad in a t-shirt that had a photo on it of him hugging the president. The photo is from a 2016 rally, where Trump called Huber up on stage.

“He’s our messenger and we listen to him, that’s all we do,” Huber added. “I listen to our president and follow his agenda.”

Gay Jewish Democrat Bob Kunst said that he drove from Miami for the event. He came with his “Hillary for Prison” sign and a plastic Hillary Clinton mask. He claimed that Democrats aren’t putting him first and only using him.

“The Democrats want our money, want our votes and then stab us in the back,” he said, before praising Trump for moving the American embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and going after the Islamic State.

[democratisphere]

3. Looks like it.

The moon is made of purple cheese in Florida.

[Demovictory9]

9. they will try. GOTV!

[janterry]

10. Worse, they'll elevate the last one to Senator

[IronLionZion]

19. Every vote matters in Florida

any liberal you know who doesn't feel like voting needs to get their ass kicked

[Cha]

2. It must be so

fucked to admit you're a brainwashed zombie with no mind of your own.

[vlyons]

4. Translation - "I'll never admit I'm an asshole and hate myself

and hate everyone else too." That's why Trump is their champion. When they look in the mirror, they think "fake reflection."

18. So true, just like their self loathing idol, tRUMP.

[Racerdog1]

5. Not very smart

Education in Florida is not a high priority. Ranks right there with Alabama, Mississippi and the like.

6. The Stupid Pill must be in abundance in FL

I’m trying to find out how supporters for Republican Candidate Corey Stewart in Virginia get them.

7. Deplorables?

Nah. Let's start calling them what they are...puppets!

[Jamaal510]

8. He's a terrible "president",

but a wonderful cult leader. No matter what he says or does, they're behind him. No matter how many lies the non-Fox media catch him in, they'll believe him.

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. The very definition of RWAF. They'd pull the lever at camp "showers"; tell kids their mom left them

They'd tell separated three year old kids that their mother left them and doesn't want them. Then they give them psychotropics and leave them on the cold concrete with a flimsy blanket.

RWAF = RW Authoritarian Follwers. I have some resource materials in my Journal in 2016 summer.

[Squinch]

12. "Also," said Huber, "I like to be a really big asshole."

[underpants]

13. Lots of "Florida Man"'s there

[The Blue Flower]

14. Anybody else remember Bob Kunst from the bush years?

He made a name for himself here on DU as an anti-R progressive, if I'm not mistaken.

[samnsara]

15. they all looked marginal

[docgee]

16. Reporters should ask the fanatics hypotheticals like what if der leader

asked them to burn the town or skin babies to see if they really have a turning point.

[SammyWinstonJack]

17. Holy crap!

[MrScorpio]

20. Kunst is like that weird uncle that everyone hates to see come to family gatherings...

"Whatever you do, don't mention Hillary Clinton, Uncle Bob will lose his mind."
