[quote=saltwind 78]Capt. Thank you. You have taken the time to answer why you are voting for Trump. I never get an answer
when I asked a supporter why he is voting for Trump.There are a few comments I want to make.
1. The Second Amendment is not in danger. The Democrats would like to see military weapons with multi round magazine banned for sale to civilians, and a better way of keeping these assault rifles and other firearms out of the hands of disturbed people, and felons. I own three pistols myself.
2. The Republican Senate have stolen a Supreme Court nomination from the next President.
3. Although I'm not a big fan of the Electoral College, I see no movement to get rid of it. We're all voting for our republic.
4. I believe that African Americans are subject to far more police brutality and legalized murder. I see it too often on the news. It must stop.
5. How can you say you are voting for the military after the way he has treated gold star families, legit. war hero, and called vets, SUCKERS AND LOSERS ? This from a guy that ducked the draft five times during Nam.
6. I don't see how you are voting for your religion and to practice it freely. Nobody is challenging your right to practice any religion you want to, or no religion at all.
7. I fully understand why you are against abortion. I don't agree with you, but I understand your view.
8. I am voting for the American dream also. I have great respect for anybody that makes it in business. I think we should include working class people in that dream also.
9. I completely disagree with you about your vote for good over evil. Trump is a sociopath,. His own niece is a clinical PhD. psychologist and that was her diagnosis. He meets every single behavior associated with that personality disorder. Read Mary Trump's book or that of John Bolton, and especially Michael Cohen's book on Trump. as well as that of the most distinguished reporter in the country, Bob Woodward.
10. If you believe that you are voting for the future of the country, how can you vote for a candidate that is doing every dirty trick he can think of, including making the post office less efficient in order to win an election by taking away high volume mail counting machines. How can you vote for the future of your country when you vote for a candidate that has caused tens of thousands of American deaths, and knew how dangerous it was from day one and lied about it. How is that pro life?[/quo

I'll settle for two.

Lt. Rob Polans ret.

You do realize his post was full of half-truths that have been debunked.

3 Presidents did not keep their paycheck, the Fourth that started out by not taking his pay, President #1, George Washington, was persuaded to accept it so as not to place a precedent on subsequent presidents, so he used it to defray his presdential office expenses.

President #31 Herbert Clark Hoover gave his salary to many White House Staffers and some Charities during his administration and his altruism started by organizing and partly funding relief and providing food to Europe after the First World War. It was a feat he could not replicate at home to stave off and provide for Americans during the Great Depression, mainly that he was against government unemployment payments. Therefore Homeless Americans set up ‘Hoover Camps’ including some in Washington DC near the White House.

President #35, John F.Kennedy, donated all his public service earnings to charities,

President #45, Donald J Trump, has made an initial show of using his paycheck to be paid back into Government Departments and some Charities, but his travel expenses to his Golf Clubs exceed his annual Salary for each visit that are charges on public funds. Without transparency to his tax returns we may never know if his assertion is true, or just another statement to avoid causing panic (otherwise known as a lie). I wonder if we might soon have ‘Trumptowns’, as the inept administration has left at least 20 million jobless and unable to pay rent through the coronavirus pandemic mishandling.

Lt. Rob Polans ret.

Smedley you're wasting your time. If he doesn't understand the really SIMPLE desire of the left to get rid of the Constitution completely nevermind just 2A. Or that Bolton and Mary Trump are hacks trying to sell books of fiction his TDS is glaring.

Avoid the facts as much as you can.

Almost correct this time. Change it to WHO, CDC, NIH, Fauci and Birx with the weird COVID conspiracy theories. Is CV any more than the regular flu? No, in fact check the death charts Covid is behind almost everything so stop the hysterics and throw the masks and distancing away it really has one purpose and it'snot your health.

Lt. Rob Polans ret.

I've got his picks (all five) for SCOTUS not one Constitutional judge.

Lt. Rob Polans ret.

That's what drew me to him in 2016, not that we were old friends or the good deeds he did.

Regular flu has nowhere near 200,000 US deaths in a year, let alone six months.

Amazing, since he has not made a list. The whole idea is premature.

You don't need to... The 2nd Amendment is already a law and has been since 1789. Nor is there a motion to repeal it.


You don't need to... the next Supreme Court Justice will be confirmed regardless.


You don't need to... Both the EC and the republic already exist and there is no motion to end either.


You don't need to... No one is asking for chaos and no one is suggesting we get rid of the police either.

Do you need some clarification on what defunding means? Right-wing propaganda will tell you the Democrats want to get rid of the police, which really doesn't make any sense at all, but I guess making sense of anything isn't part of being a sucker. If you are interest at all in what defunding the police really means, it's a shift of *some* money from the police budgets being used on military training and equipment, to other programs that will help to solve problems that people have BEFORE they become a burden to the police.


Then you should definitely vote AGAINST Trump. His inability to stick to his decisions on military matters, his disregard for advice from top brass, his lack of strategy in ANY theater, his pardons for war criminals AGAINST the advice of the military command, his constant saber rattling... these things have led to this...




You don't need to... no one is threatening to take the flag away. BTW, I see the flag in the Democratic backgrounds all the time...




Then you need to vote against Trump, the only president to issue lists of words that his agencies can't mention. The only president to shut down White House press conferences for extended periods. You need to vote against the Republicans the party behind every censorship law on the books.


I would suggest you vote for someone else then... While Trump was trying to fund the wall (after Mexico said FU) he was also defunding the Coast Guard which has intercepted more illegal traffic into the U.S. than the Border Patrol. So now it's easier for immigrants to get a boat and go around the wall.

Also, Trump never built the wall he was promising. All he's done is add more fencing to what previous presidents have already built. The only difference is these previous presidents, including Obama, didn't turn it into a circus act. They never said they were going to make the Mexicans pay for it and they never declared national emergencies so they could steal money from the military budget to help pay for it


Well, if your scared of praising God, I would call that a personal problem.


*sigh* I guess in the 40 years since Roe v Wade, you folks still haven't caught on to the fact that Republicans in Congress have no intention of EVER banning abortion. Conservatives continue to be suckered into thinking the decision can be overturned by judges but they can't. Judges make decisions according to the laws not their personal ideologies and there is no law currently on the books that will allow judges to overturn Roe v Wade. If you want to see a ban on abortions you have to appeal to Congress... THEY are the ones that make the laws. But in all the 40 years since Roe v Wade, Republican lawmakers in Washington have NEVER pushed for that law, even all those times when the Republicans controlled the Senate AND the House.

If Republicans ever established a law against abortions they would lose that pro-life crusadership role during election seasons that continue to secure votes for them, year after year. That and the baseless fear of losing the 2nd Amendment have been the ol' standby's for Republican election campaigns for a long time.


Then you should CERTAINLY vote against Trump... Unless of course you have at least couple million in your account.


Huh, most Americans would say they are voting for the lesser of two evils. But I guess if your brainwashed enough you would see your candidate as "good".


Well, most liberals would say the same thing. They are voting for the future of their country. But I will be a little more specific. I'm voting for 99% of my country as in not the 1% elite that Trump has been serving to the detriment of everyone else for the last 4 years

If he refused the money it would just go back into the government's pockets. What he does is donate it to worthy causes, like Shepherds Purse. There is a thoughtful man at his best.

Quaker widow: 1st there has not been 200,000 Covid Deaths period. Every heart death, every stroke death, every pneumonia death, every Auto accident death, every Sucide Death, on and on they are all in the Covid Death Count. Just check the CDC death rate from all causes for the last 10 years, divide by 12 and multiple by 9. This would give death rate approximately for 9mts or 2020. I think you will be surprised.

moldyoldy

Yeah, he stole money for vets donated to charity. He paid 25 million for his fake school. He is thoughtful alright, about how to cheat people.
