*** Official Republican CIVIL WAR Thread ***

[blake]

I don’t spend hours on Facebook political message boards.

Hillary bad - Republicans good. I do my job and have a family. Personally, I mailed it in 2016.

I read shit like the Fifth Risk and it wasn’t great.

This year, when the country was facing a crisis I really paid rapt attention. I listened closely to Trump ramble for 2 hours every afternoon.

I realized he was an idiot. I knew about Roy Cohn and all the stories. There it was in front of my eyes. He was stupid beyond words. Unable to process information he resorts to lying. His coping mechanisms are frightening. The closer I looked the more disturbed I got. He was a threat to my principles which he was elected to represent. He was a threat to the country.

Druff dismisses this as some passing fashion. Democracy is fragile. There are no guarantees. Meanwhile, whatever conservative notions he holds are gonna get swept into a corner.

Trump was the freaking incumbent. Republicans were gonna get massacred. This is a disaster. Druff wasn’t too bothered. AOC & Antifa were his obsession.

You seem to be purposely avoiding my point.

It's not an either-or situation. If you're complaining about Trump, you can also complain about stupidity on the left. For some reason, years have passed and you couldn't be bothered to utter even once how foolish the left is acting. Yet somehow you had the time to take 50 different shots at Dodger management? Look, I enjoy your participation in the sports threads, but I'm not really buying that you couldn't find the time or trouble to say something about the side opposing Trump. It kinda reminds me of late night TV -- they have plenty of jokes they could tell about the left, but they're terrified to do so, because they're afraid it will empower Trump supporters.

As I said, if you've switched political sides, that's fine. Happens to people all the time. I won't hold it against you. I can tell you that you're not behaving like a centrist in recent years.

I've criticized Trump and Republicans more in the last 3 years than you've gone after the left. That should say something.

you just don't get it.

a normal person who recognizes trump is a sociopath wouldn't constantly whatabout when faced with trump's insanity. not every critique of trump needs a qualification about the left. if you think that we need equal time to bash the left when trump is literally trying to destroy the country, i just don't know what to say.

your standard canned response to any trump criticism is "i have said many times i disapprove of what trump did. that being said, the left..."

it's really nauseating

you are the worst kind of enabler for team retard. you are just constantly deflecting for him

as recent as a couple of weeks ago, you were totally dismissive of trump's rants that the election was "stolen" from him -- even mocking liberals for being outraged about it.

jesus did that age poorly

absolutely nothing changed in his rhetoric since that time, but suddenly that same behavior is a bridge too far for you.

just what the fuck
