Emotionality


A good 81% of the country is completely possessed by either a slavish love or hate for Trump. The emotionality around Obama was pretty bad, but this is worse, in my opinion.
Blind love or hate as it turns out keeps one from seeing the full picture. It messes with your head, pushing out rationality.
Everyone, detach a little bit. Having this emotional investment in a politician (yes, he's been president for 4 years, he's a politician now) is not healthy.
It's good to be inspired by a politician, although I question that now too. But politics and governance should be largely kept in the realm of the rational.
All those who've claimed to be the moral betters of MAGTARDS for four years, now is the time to show it. Be better people. Stop the cycles.
My naive hope is that we can move on from that post-Trump. However, I see no signs of that.
TL,DR: Clean it up out here guysm.

I don't love Trump or any politician. I don't want a daddy (Hi H) or a nanny. I love America and think the ideals that Trump fought for are worth fighting for. Doesn't matter who.
I don't see a lot left out there that is worth even an internet battle over. No one is going to come from the outside and get beaten and eaten by the swamp again. Its not Trump that paid its the people that came to Washington with him. They either worked against him or they got put in the target
What Obama did in the transition is far too serious to shrug off. All of this will have to be accounted for and the bill is going to be steep and I'm not even talking about the craven destruction of the economy by despots
Nah I don't see anything stopping. These fucks want to put me on a list.

No shit.

I've said before that I believe Trump was God's collective judgement on the collective fucktardedness of the Democratic and GOP establishments and their poor leadership since the end of the Cold War. To paraphrase Victor Davis Hanson's comments on Ben Shapiro's (FTG) recent pod: the establishment was like a cancer, and Trump was like chemotherapy - nasty and unpleasant - but a necessary cure none the less. My disagreement with him (and many here) was never about the cancer diagnosis, but whether Trump was the right course of treatment.
P.S. Biden is the not cure either IMO. -
Trump did more for conservatives than anyone than Reagan. What else matters unless your a teen girl like H who needs a daddy?
Nothing has been cured. The loss means the cancer won and you know it, I know it, and the American people know it
Romney can run in 24 who the fuck cares?

Can’t wait to see the final 24 GOP candidates take the debate stage to kickoff 2024 primary season

P.S. Biden is the corrupt establishment disease.

That's where most of us are who loathe what the left and their swampy friends have in mind. What's going on here is a cultural and ideological fight. Limited government, self reliance, independence, individual responsibility, individual opportunity, love of country and constitutional protections for the minority from themobmajority. All things we love and the left hate with the intensity of a thousand burning suns and are hell bent on upending.

No. Nothing has been cured. I think another outsider with similar policy goals, but with far greater branding and discipline might have been able to pull it off but who knows.

Not true. I don't know anyone who is a Trumpanzee. They do love most of his policies except that he spends too much money. But that is basically up to Congress. This reeks of a pox on both of your houses. I reject that. This was basically a love America or love the chicoms and free sh*t. It was also about supporting an honest election and those who support a dishonest election. Not one leftard here has any commitment to voting integrity.GrundleStiltzkin said:This does not deserve own thread, but I'm feeling philosophical and loquacious.

That was Reagan. How did the left and deep state deal with him? You can't get more cordial and disciplined than the Gipper. The left only knows violence and eventually it will need to be met with violence.YellowSnow said:

Reagan was an outsider, but a 2 term Governor of the most important state in the Union. Whether the establishment sucks or not, you still need them to govern. Reagan's economic achievements (ending stagflation) and and foreign policy ones dwarf anything that has come after.RoadTrip said:

What the country needs is some of the Trump policy instincts (e.g., confront China, fix immigration, no more national building, etc) but with Reagan's political gifts. This shouldn't be that hard. Trump wins w/o Covid, so it's not like there isn't a winning formula to beat the left. -
yeah -but The Throbber doesn't want to run for office....YellowSnow said:

good intentions is all either party has going for them right now.
They are both dead imho, I will go back to voting libertarian party in hopes that more will follow. I would love to see them slash the spending, pull the troops back, and let all the rest of the world duke it out without us. -

I can get behind this. I never loathed Trump and I wasn’t wild on Biden. The centrist votes their conscience.LebamDawg said:good intentions is all either party has going for them right now.

I’m a product of the 80s and find talking about “emotionality” on a message bored with mostly guys faggy.
I don’t worship Trump, but I do loathe the DC power structure and how blatantly biased it’s been against Trump because he tried to call out their corruption.
The DC elites won. They cheated in Atlanta/Milwaukee/Detroit/Philadelphia, but they won because that’s how corrupt the Left is right now along with the GOP old guard.
Get ready for even more restrictions on freedom. -
We face serious danger in Biden. Security risk, bought by foreign governments and a gun grabber. The left needs to hope they can somehow explain the obvious and serious abnormalities in the election or this will NEVER be over. People who feel they've been cheated don't forget and forgive easily. Our country will be over if the left gets both houses. Done, finished. They'll legalize 25-40 million illegals and open the borders. Joe's promised gun confiscation.
People better hope they don't do this shit because the cheated side is the most heavily armed populace the earth has ever known. It very well could get ugly. -
