Does Trump do well with Losers in life?

[bluestateguy]

You know the type. The person you know who screws up everything they touch: they fail and fail and fail and fail and usually have a bucket-full of excuses as to why. They fail at marriages, relationships, parenthood, school, sports and jobs. It just seems like Trump is an outlet for these folks.

Yes, I know, there are a few celebrities and a handful of successful people for Trump.

But anyway, it seems like his rank and file supporters fit the loser category.

1. Well.... that first sentence seems to apply to

Hillary this week. Caught in 6 lies in less than a week.

2. I don't know if I would define it that way

But he certainly has a way of tapping into a lot of people's unfocused anger. Anyone who is unhappy with their own life is going to want to find someone or something to blame. Trump gives them that and that's a big part of why he is popular. Look at his message: it's all about how Mexicans, Muslims and liberals are ruining things for "real Americans".

3. Many of Trump's "loser" supporters

are people who have seen their jobs get shipped overseas and feel that neither party gives a shit about this. So, yeah, I suppose you could call them losers.

4. Not necessarily.

For example, I personally can't stand the guy.

5. What basis do you use to castigate such a large group? . . .

I'm curious: By what metric do you form such blanket judgments?

6. Also begs the question;

Who are life's winners voting for? Those people for whom life is just peachy, not a worry in the world. Who is their candidate of choice?

Because as far as I can tell, there's no one running on the "Everything is Awesome!" ticket (although there's more than a few 1%'ers who'd like to stay there).

7. Trump likes calling people losers

just saying.

8. I think it's an insult against losers in life...

to accuse them of being Trumpers.


best to worst:
Me
Progressive Democrats
All other Democrats
Independents
Apathetic non-voters
Moderate Republicans
Nixon
Immoderate Republicans
Paul Ryan
Losers
Violent pro-life protesters
Non-Hitlerian Fascists (i.e. Supporters of Mussolini, Franco, Petain)
(tie)Trumpers
(tie)Hitlerian Fascists (e.g. Goebbels, Himmler, Quisling, Braun, Hess)
*** (The entirety of existence)
Trump
Hitler

(Looking back 10 years from now, there is a distinct possibility that the last two are a tie.)
