Do you think there is something mentally wrong with those who support Trump

RE: Do you think there is something mentally wrong with those who support Trump
This was posted as an example of how to spot fake news.  I can't quite tell if it's a satire/spoof site or not.  (Surely it must be!   :-O  )
The text is completely goofy, but it's positively sane compared to the comments by the rabid Drumph supporters.  (Unless they're trolls?)

RE: Do you think there is something mentally wrong with those who support Trump
I'd say that there's something mentally wrong with the majority of Trump voters. Not mental illness necessarily, but mental deficiency most definitely. Nobody can seriously complain that Obama played too much golf, and went on vacation too much, and then mentally disconnect and think Trump going to Mar-a-fucking-lago every week, and playing more golf than Obama is just fine and dandy.

Give him more time before you judge so hard, I would say...And the Main Stream Media in de USA (like CNN, NY Times etc), but also and especially the (so called funny) daily shows, only being negative and hard about his first months of being a President.  And it is easy to manipulate the people via media.

Let's wait another year and see....please ask the question again somewhere in 2018. Or do you believe the USA has burnt down by than ?

I'm not a Trump supporter. But understand his political doctrine. Make the US big again !

Right?

You may think you are trying to be fair, but no, this is nothing but blindness and shortsightedness.

Trump has been saying vile crap for 5 years. He took off with what that delusional lady started with the birther crap about Obama being a secret Muslim, long before he ran. The started his campaign off by scapegoating Mexican migrants with "they're rapists". Then attacked the military service of a DEAD SOLDIER just because he was Muslim knowing it would play well to his bigoted far right base. He couldn't even leave his own GOP John McCain alone regarding his service. He burned his way through the primaries burning his own party nominees to get the nomination. He vilified 17 intel agencies basically implying they didn't know what the fuck they were talking about. So much so that 50 former REPUBLICAN law agents signed a a letter warning the nation what a Trump presidency could lead to.

It isn't about giving him a chance, he was never fit. The only thing keeping him in office is that he has just enough delusional supporters who are taking the cheap win because a win is more important to them than the clear lack of ethics and clear lack of understanding of what national and global diplomacy is required to lead as President.

Trump IS NOT a left or right issue. You cant give someone a chance if all they do is vilify and scapegoat, nor should you.

I can only say that I was not completely aware of the above, I mean I knew he did some weird things in the past as a business guy and local politics guy, quite shocking and very rude, stupid even. But he was still "democratically" elected and won against Clinton, millions of Americans voted him....

But I agree my feeling towards disliking him because of his current actions as a President (Getting out of the climate agreement.....is...utterly stupid, there is just to much science and evidence available showing the world has no choice...to eehm change..).

I just wonder how the US will profit with him being the supreme leader. I wonder how it will be at the end of 2018 for example...will he be impeached, or will he be more populair and loved than you all would ever imagine ?? Sleepy

Maybe leftists will find a newfound respect for federalism. Maybe they will start to question the "benign dictatorship" they imagined under Obama, with his phone and pen, issuing executive orders, appropriating sweeping regulatory powers, and engaging in "kinetic military operations". For decades, under both Republicans and Democrats, presidential power has continued to become ever more expansive and federal power more intrusive. I can only hope that our nation will start demanding that Congress actually declare war (when appropriate) and stop tacitly letting Presidents have that power and following up with a rubber stamp. If you look back on these international agreements and deals, it is clear the these are not, and should not, be accepted as binding until the Senate, the elected representatives of the People, votes on them.

There is something mentally wrong with people who support Trump. There is something wrong with their minds. They have minds that cause them to vote for Trump and thereby cause harm. This makes them bad persons and immoral people.

You know, I can get onboard with that, sort of (lol)..though I'd include the rightists and leftists, a communal;

Obama had less executive orders than GW Bush, Clinton or Reagan. He had more (total) but less per year than single term Bush Sr.

So that part is a bunch of hoo-ha.

I agree that it's not legal to tack all the drone strikes and interventions onto the war on terror, if that's what you're referring to. Either way, you should need the approval of congress to declare war.

Republicans are order happy as Dems and always have been. Hell even the founding father we order happy .So fuck off with your leftist want dictatorship bullshit . Conservatives are libertarian only so long as government does something they don't like . Then they go authoritarian  when it suits there agenda . But keep deluding yourself .

Oh and you might wanna give Trump the Federalist meme before he professes his love for another despot
