I swear that KSUW started a thread here titled "The Big Beautfiul Mexican Paid For Wall". Maybe not.
I’m very proud of that title. Just because I support Trump doesn’t mean I can’t joke about him. I can understand why liberals take solace in pretending that all of Trump’s voters either feel betrayed or are too stupid to see they’re being played. Neither is true.
Trump was not my choice in the primaries. He is not an intellectual or a conservative champion. He is crass, egotistical, immoral, and immature. Because he has no political savvy except for his formidable brand of populism, he has utterly failed to lead that discombobulated band of fucktards known as the GOP. As a result, his record on important issues like spending and Obamacare is an utter failure.
And despite all of that, I can also feel extreme gratitude that he beat and even worse person and liberal, and in so doing has managed to advance conservative causes in some important regards, such as appointing stellar judges for the rule of law, trimming back the regulatory state, and tax reform. It’s also quite hilarious at times watching him “own the libs.”
Acknowledging the good and bad, and being satisfied with a choice because it was the better one to make, is not inconsistent or hypocritical. I do not feel betrayed (by Trump) because I knew what I was getting. And I’m certainly not being played.
I stopped posting here because most of the posters are so... meh. Be smart, or be funny, but don’t waste my time with boring liberal bitchiness.
