Trump went from the “because you’d be in jail” guy I loved to this “letting Hillary get away with her crimes is barely scratching the surface of everything I can do to fuck the concepts of law and justice”
So what happened to my fellow supporters? I’m still here but it’s like all the others vaporized? Or I was the only one the whole time, but then why would Trump lie for my support when my one vote wasn’t gonna decide that first election?
This seems really weird
When the white house just has a long stream of war criminals in it, wanting criminals held accountable is wanting politicians arrested.
I just still don’t get where the “people like me” are that were clearly joining a movement en masse to bring down war criminals, not support another one. The idea they were all foreign influencers makes no sense. Some “for the lulz” but that doesn’t explain 0 people left who actually were on board
You can’t expect a war criminal to hold war criminals accountable. What’s happening with the Venezuelan boats is criminal. He obviously doesn’t care about criminality. I think the issue is that most people that actually cared about criminality were against him in the first place. He has been on record many times about how little he cares for the rule of law, so that dissuaded most people who earnestly cared about the law from supporting him to begin with.
I’m not saying people like you don’t exist at all, but most people that cared about accountability were against him, and the ones that for some reason still supported him are likely now too deep in the Trump mindset to speak against him, or have been convinced that anything said against him is a lie. It has to be said that a lot of people you potentially perceived as “like you” were also grifters, bots/foreign agents, or just trolls, and many of all of those groups have pushed even further right. If you were on Reddit, feel free to go back and see which accounts you saw posting or you were chatting with. See what they’re up to now, if anything. It’s possible I’m wrong and the community you’re referring to is still over there and still feels the same way you do. Otherwise, there are only so many explanations as to what could have happened, and I’m open to hearing other theories.
I wonder if a bigger part of it than we’ve realized is them being brainwashed to start believing everything said against him is a lie, one of the things you mentioned
I assume many of the people from that subreddit back then are no longer on reddit, but surely they can’t all have moved to somewhere dumb like truth social either, so I also wonder if there’s a particular place I’m not realizing a lot of them went
Yea, as someone with family and acquaintances that are into Trump, I have generally only seen them become more fanatical.
If you end up finding it, I would be interested to know where. If you remember to, please feel free to come back and let me know.
Thanks for the discussion. I hope you can find something useful in it for future discussions with those who still blindly support Trump 🙏
Hired trolls to feed the propaganda machine, fueled by QAnon. Face it, you were duped harder than most people throughout history.
Mind you, you’re an inbred American, so it makes total sense.
Most Americans aren’t either. It’s an education issue. But that sort of response will inoculate many from becoming more educated. Keep in mind this is something Canada and plenty of other places are struggling with as well. There’s a global propaganda issue.
I agree with you on the education being lacklustre in a large part of the world, but I disagree with the response. Why should I be tolerant of intolernat people? Fight fire with fire and break their wills.
