Right, Trump couldn't ban all Muslims because it's unconstitutional, but that's what he WANTED to do. That's what he kept saying at his rallies and people cheered. He said it over and over during the campaign and all over Fox News. So of course when he won, liberals were like whoa there's that many Islamophobes in this country who think that's okay? What group is next?
I don't think it was because the country was "Islamophobic," but I remember at the time that terrorism domestically and foreign was at all time high. Many people were scared and afraid of ISIS and their terror. I think played a lot of that American fear to try to win support, (which btw I disagree with 100%. There are justifiable ways to try to secure faith in your candidacy). But I don't think it was Islamophobia that pushed people to vote, but more of fear of ISIS coming to America and another 9/11 happening, and his words appealed to people.
We've already seen him want to give the death penalty to 5 innocent black men exonerated by DNA evidence (he refuses to admit he was wrong about that).
He wanted to deport Dreamers and portrayed illegal immigrants as rapists and low lives.
In July he said he wants to provide a path of citizenship for DACA recipients
He would call any political or celebrity opponent horrible names,
Well there are some names that are a terrible, but really? I mean Sleepy Joe and Corrupt Kamala? Are those that bad? Crazy Bernie? Mini Mike?
including a war hero like John McCain whom he mocked for being a POW.
That was very shameful. That hurt my view of him
But what Trump is doing is trying to discredit the entire voting process simply because he lost. My problem with this in the big picture is not that you're a conservative (because #1 I'm not super liberal myself, and #2 I'm very open minded in general) it's that you aren't acting as alarmed about this as you should be.
Because nothing is gonna come of Trump whining and crying about what is going on. Nothing will happen and Biden will still be president. It's just FOX being bad sports
Yes Ben Shapiro acknowledged Trump lost the election and that's great, but you've been talking about how Democrats shouldn't be happy they won because they did so poorly elsewhere.
Well they did? I mean be happy about getting rid of Trump, but be concerned that you lost seats in the house and Trump gained 10% of Latino vote despite his remarks. I mean that has to be a concern if you are a Demnocrat that someone who has been SO AGAINST LATINO's has gained 10% of their vote
You are talking about how liberals were upset in 2016 as some sort of justification for what Trump supporters are doing now.
I never said it was a justification. I called out the hypocrisy of calling out Trump supporters for this because of 2016, and just reminded you how the Dems reacted.
You are talking about anything you can to talk trash about "the other side" rather than acknowledge that this is not normal or acceptable behavior from the President. You and all of his other supporters, not just Ben Shapiro, need to call it out for what it is. Because the fact that Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson and other MAINSTREAM TALKING HEADS are perpetuating this narrative that the election was "stolen" from Trump is very alarming.
Well we have said Trump has lost this election and we said Trump should concede. What else can I do? Walk into FOX News and tell Tucker Carlson to stop? He's only getting attention cuz he's mainstream. If you take a scroll thru some people socials who voted Trump, they thanked him and said we have to rally for Biden. They obviously think this is a mistake, but will respect it, and I think that is a lot of the Conservatives. You're just focusing on the ones that are hypo Trumpites.
I feel like every Trump supporter should be having a come to Jesus moment about how their favorite person on the planet really is the psycho narcissist the media has been portraying him has. Like sure maybe you like his policies, but he's a fucking piece of shit. Good riddance.
I don't think he is a psychotic but definitely a narcissist. And believe me, I think a lot of Trump supporters are in touch with Jesus since Christians like him lol.
Anyway we can talk about Marco Rubio now. Do you really think Republicans will love him that much? He doesn't have that chutzpah Trump does. Nobody's waving giant Marco Rubio flags except for maybe some Hispanic-Americans. He'll have to beg people to vote; it's not gonna be like Trump where people are out there ready to go to war for him. I could see a bigger personality being the candidate of choice. But maybe. Maybe Nikki Haley, or maybe even someday Ivanka. Yikes.
No one is gonna carry this type of chutzpah for any candidate ever on both sides for a bit and especially not on the Conservative side. I like Rubio because with a growing % of the Latino vote, he could potentially help the Conservative party gain some of that. People need to understand he is pretty conservative versus other candidates and is very big on state issues and such. Much more Conservative than you think. I think he could light a spark in the party that we haven't seen. I like Haley as well and Candace Owens, but I have some problems with Owens
