Why can't Trump supporters admit there is something wrong with him
June 16, 2017 at 7:30 pm
It seems if you try to point that out to them, they will either A) Resort to name calling, B) Tell you to shut up and get over it ["We won, you lost] or C) Deflect to Hillary.
I too think Hillary is corrupt, but she is not president right now. So what is so hard for them to understand about this? http://prntscr.com/fkprs3 Here's a screen shot of this discussion.

Cognitive dissonance, of course.

Perhaps. However, I would like to point out that while I liked Obama I wasn't bat shit crazy about the man. I mean, he was a good president and all; but he had his flaws. However, a Trump supporter would never find any faults with the man. I am literally convinced it is because of the letter in front of his name.

Because if they admit there is something wrong with him that means there is something wrong with them.... and these dumb fucks think they are the only REAL 'Murricans.

So what you are saying is that they are too prideful to admit that they were wrong? Doesn't their sky daddy speak against that in their precious Bible?

Speaking of sky daddy, don't theists have the same problem of admitting that their god is a bad deity?
It is almost as though some people are experiencing a different reality than other people. Rather, those who refuse to admit to what others see clearly are merely delusional.

Not ever a supporter but yes, there is something, many things wrong with him.
I've said this else where, I feel that firing Comey is the beginning of the end. As things continue to deteriorate I may be correct. But not gonna hold my breath.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Yeah I'm not either. It really may not be until the end of the Trump presidency in 2020 when there is an actual conviction. He will either be impeached, quit or last all 4 years. But there is no way he will be reelected. There will either be a strong Republican against him or a Democrat may win. I mean, when it comes to another GOP candidate, I'm pretty sure ANYONE would vote for ANYONE that is not Trump

I have an aunt who really believes that Trump was sent down by God. Yes, I am not exaggerating that one bit. She is really batshit insane. One time she was visiting us a few years ago and she went on and on that Obama is the Anti-Christ. haha the woman is fucking insane. My Dad even made her cry once. Then again my Dad is someone who will tell you like it is. lol But speaking of my parents, they are actually staunch republicans and HATE and I mean HATE Trump with a passion. Then again, I would probably consider them more moderately religious and republican. After all, they have warmed up to the concept of things like Gay rights.

He may just become a lame duck president in his first year.

Personally, I am really sick and tired of hearing his name in the news. I am sure the man probably loves it. I was actually discussing this factor to my Mom the other day. And she made it a point that the news should not stop talking about him, because that would mean his dark deeds would go un noticed. Just something to think about.
