I think to some extent it is true. The "real American" Palin types do default as you just said.

But Trump has wider support than just the Palin crowd.
With a favorability rating of 29% and with by all accounts the Tea Party base representing somewhere around 25% of the vote, it looks like base of Trump's support is the Palin crowd, TJ and you.

I hear the same statements.

i think many take a stand that voicing an opinion outside of political correctness is hate. It's not. It's speech outside the confines of political correctness.

BTW, I do not support that talk. It is simply not a deal breaker for me.

Deal breakers for me are looking to the bible for guidance or being an obvious idiot savant.

Thanks for sharing your impressions.


You don't see it because you don't want to see it.

Your blind support of Trump is just as bad as anyone's blind hatred.

How come anti Trump people aren't " speaking outside the confines of political correctness" rather than blind hatred?

You see..... You think you are being objective but it is very obvious you are not.

Functionally, support for Trump and blind hatred are pretty much the same thing.

now you are not being reasonable

I have no blind support of TRump.

I have posted here what have been non negotiables for me.

He has not crossed any line. I had supported Kasich prior. I still support Hill on the DEm side. I voted for Bernie in the primary. Does that sound like blind support?

you are seterotyping.

This is true of the Palin crowd but not of liberals like me that do not condemn his candidacy. Lot's of us out there. Look at last night's results for confirmation.

Wouldn't your liberals be voting in the Democratic primaries?

you need you to engage in the conversation. These witticisms share nothing but disdain. I thought that was the domain of the Trump supporters?


Does anyone here really think I am not capable of being cutting and flippant?

Is this forum just a spot to vent and act like the hated Trump supporters while messaging one another... offering each other dispensation because their hate is founded in virtue?

You realize that is what many are doing, right?

Not being unreasonable.... I'm " telling it like it is" 😉

Your blind support of Trump is evidenced here in this thread. You won't admit his flaws and you hold him to a different standard than those that don't support him.

That you are also open to supporting other candidates doesn't really matter on this issue. You are still blind when it comes to Trump.

Where did I not acknowledge flaws?

I rejected his condemnation. Much different.
