Anyone who did a bit of reading knew about the charity, his Russian influence, the only hard thing is trying to remember all of his transgressions.

When he was elected I said he would have more convictions in his admin than all other Presidents in the last 50 years time two!

I was shocked when I first saw Sarah Palin speak, fully thinking the Repub electorate would abandon the party. Then i slightly fell back and thought the Repubs would come around on tRump. By the time it was clear he would be the nominee, it became clear that Repubs will not take any off ramp, he could do and say anything and they would support him.

So you have to ask why? Why would "christians" support this guy? Why would all of these rural folks support him? Why would anyone who claims to support Democracy and the military support this guy? Law and order people? Please it isn't that hard

Occam's Razor folks, they are hate filled racists people. The talking heads keep trying to understand his support, why he can lie multiple times per day. It is a waste of oxygen. The answer is painfully simple.

A couple of weeks ago I posted a thread stating that anyone who is a Republican and still support tRump is a bad person. About 40% of the responses were saying that I was being too harsh. We need to figure this out quick because there are only a couple of options left.

He is a symptom, but the problem, the sickness is much bigger.
