1. I know people still making excuses for that ass clown

it makes me SICK....no WAY would they make the same excuses for Hillary or Barack - NO WAY

[jberryhill]

4. He wants to shine lights inside people's bodies

Because a PowerPoint slide mentioned that light, heat and disinfectant kill viruses on surfaces.

I would never belittle children with learning difficulties. I just can’t imagine anyone very far past the fifth grade who wouldn’t say, “Holy shit, what’s wrong with this one?”

I thought I’d seen everything, but Jesus H. Christ on a flaming chariot, this man does not have all the lights on the string screwed in right.

20. Most people who continue to support him have a need to believe he is superior

to people like Hillary and Barack.

[TruckFump]

2. Yes, unfortunately.

Today I was told that he would NEVER vote for Biden because Biden is “corrupt and insane.”

I am rarely speechless, but that stopped me in my tracks.

3. The 4 conservatives I speak with regularly have changed their tune about COVID 19,

(one by one they started posting "stay at home, idiot" posts). I have seen fewer pro-Trump rants from them. But I don't think they have changed their basic opinion of Trump. The most rabid (a cousin by marriage) has only posted 2 pro-Trump posts since April 8 (a record low). (Although she continues to post anti-Biden; anti-Clinton; anti-Obama posts)

[jberryhill]

8. Anti-Obama posts

W remains an unpleasant memory in “clueless myopic personally amiable nitwit stumbles his way into a position well beyond his competence” follies, but I couldn’t see the point in obsessing over him after he’s gone. Has she shown you on the doll where Hillary hurt her?

[Ms. Toad]

17. Not that I'm aware of.

I try not to look too much. My niece and I take turns trying to talk sense into her. It's been my niece's turn for the last couple of months. It will probably be my turn again soon.

[Under The Radar]

5. Just as stupid as "Mars is part of the moon" comment

....there will be no questions taken on that topic, and all will be forgotten by the first of next week.
If pressed on it, supporters will say that he was either joking or that his intelligence is so off the charts that normal people like us just can’t understand his meanings.

6. I was talking to a Republican neighbor today. He likes tRump.

He thinks tRump is smart, though a little rough around the edges.

I didn't ask if he's going to vote for him. I felt too angry to engage him further.

[Progressive Jones]

15. I just don't bring up the subject anymore with known Trumpies in my universe. nt

[unblock]

7. Honestly we'd all understand him a lot better if he actually was 5 years old

And yet, there would *still* be people insisting he's the best leader ever....

[Botany]

9. I just woke back up and I can't go back to sleep because a question haunts me.

Now if you follow Trump's "treatments" do you get burned to death by U.V. rays or
poisoned by disinfectant that is injected into your blood?

[Doreen]

16. Does it really matter?

Either way they will be gone.

[Botany]

18. I guess not because by Sunday America will have 1,00,000 + cases of C-19 and more dead from ....

... C-19 then died in Vietnam (58,000) or the battle of Gettysburg (51,000). In a sane world Trump would
have been gone months ago. He and Kush-turd were told of the C-19 virus in NOVEMBER of 2019 and they
did nothing except to look for ways on how to make a profit off of the coming pandemic.

10. From my die hard Trump fanatic friemd

I’m response to my asking her to comment on Trump’s presser today:

“ Well, I’m not a doctor, but... I have always found anything fascinating that is related to health, nutrition, medical advancements, and medical science when relating to health and using new technologies to treat certain illnesses.
There are discoveries in medicine that if you had mentioned them 20,40,60 years ago to someone they would have thought it was impossible. Yet, it wasn’t. With that in mind, I listened to his message and almost knocked myself out when I dropped my phone and ran headfirst into the wall. ”

THERE IS HOPE!

11. I do not talk to any of them if I have a choice.

I choose my friends based on many things and politics is one of the biggies in my book.

[Jamastiene]

12. Most of my family is like that.

They are willfully stupid and completely backwards from the rest of the world. They think they are the smartest people ever. I know to move out of the way when any of them operate power tools or vehicles.

I'm the reject of my family. That is a good thing.

[jberryhill]

13. I would be proud...

...to be a reject from your family.

I would sign up to be adopted by them, if they promised to reject me.

[misanthrope]

14. Plenty of them

That's why I practically lived in emotional exile before COVID-19.

[canetoad]

19. From time to time I feed the pond goldfish of some good friends

I greet them with a cheery, 'Good morning, fish people' when I arrive. They respond by mouthing a silent rendition of the Hallelujah Chorus.

No, I don't know a single soul amongst liberal and conservative voters alike, who believe that Trump is:

1. Competent
2. Without profound character defects
3. Has the best interest of the American people at heart

Something on which my few conservative friends and I agree is that it is dangerous to elevate a political office to an almost god-like status. I guess that's just an Aussie thing.
