I can’t vote for Trump (I’m Dutch). Would have probably voted for him though. Another 4 years of Biden would have made Europe a Marxists paradise. Trump still might not change it but at least there is some push back now.
I don’t understand the ‘I will always support my president’ - maybe that’s a US thing. If you think the guy is a nutcase, why support him. The US is more than a president. Companies, states and people can thrive under bad management.
Not sure what to think of the Guantanamo Bay policy. If it is only used for low life criminals I am not too bothered with it. If it causes randomly sending illegals there and treating them inhumanly I wouldn’t support that.
The point is that your guy doesn’t always win, but as a country, we need to support our leadership. Otherwise, nothing gets done, and people just bitch for four years.
That doesn’t mean you can’t disagree from time to time or vote against them, but the constant everything that person does is bad, is just counterproductive. Trump could cure the answer, and the left would still complain about it. That doesn’t help our country move forward.
On reddit there is a bot attack where people are saying let’s list all the MAGA places and stop doing business with them. It is funny when people realize many of the places they love and people they know supported Trump and they wouldn’t have anywhere to go if they stopped doing business with MAGA people.
