It doesn't matter what he says or does. Clearly.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is exactly who you voted for.

It just didn‘t matter to you because he was shitting on poor people, minorities, foreigners, disabled people, smart people, etc. He on more than one occasion made offhand comments about how stupid he thought his voters were. He has repeatedly made financial deals to serve himself, and repeatedly made geopolitical moves that do nothing but harm America and its citizens.

But you what…ignored that? You licked the boot and kissed the ring! He couldn‘t possibly be ignoring your particular needs?

If the Democrats had any sense, they'd run that clip in ads for Democrats in every race later this summer.

They won't, but they should.

[–] A_Random_Idiot@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

This is exactly what they voted for.

They are just hurt that its affecting them.

If everything happened the same way, without affecting them, they'd still be cheering it.. because they cheer anything that hurts the "right" people.. I.E. people that arent them.

[–] FreshParsnip@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 day ago

He hasn't changed one bit

As I've said before, they will have maga tombstones.

Their servility is so complete it will continue in death.

[–] Bieren@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This won’t have any affect on them. If anything they will call it fake news. His base will fight each other to change this man’s diaper.

[–] HalfSalesman@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think it will over time and has. There are explicit examples of it. The problem is that the ones who will be moved against him are not doing it from a change of heart.

They're still selfish, hateful, and greedy. Its just eventually they reach a point where Trump doesn't serve them in a way that sates those sociopathic traits. They're upset that their shitty political project has hurt them, not that its hurt anyone at all.

[–] A404@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

funny you say that. Theres actually a billionaire cult which is trying to "create a worthy successor for humanity"

[–] timeghost@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The group whose identity is hating those they perceive as beneath them are shocked to find the man above them hates them.

[–] Garbagio@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

Nah, the unspoken truth is that they know he hates them and they like it. They hate themselves for being poor as much as they hate everyone else. That's what MAGA is built on: For every rich prick that is prioritizing their own business interests, there are a hundred thousand myopic fucks who know that they have failed under the current socioeconomic system, and believe wholeheartedly that they would rise to the top if we could reset to a more violent system. The only reason he's losing support now is that his supporters are finding out in real time that they still fucking suck in their preferred system, or at best they're malding "NooOOoo, you were supposed to break it all in the way I fantasized myself succeeding, not like this!!!"

[–] mimavox@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This is exactly the same guy you voted for.

[–] Dryad@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

He hasn’t changed a bit since before his first term. Anyone who payed any attention at all can see that. I’ve said it elsewhere, but this kind of post is just an attempt to jump off the sinking ship before history solidifies you on the wrong side of history and morality.

[–] crystalmerchant@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This is definitely the same man you voted for lol

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 4 points 2 days ago

He's just realised Trump hates him as much as the people he hates.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (15 children)

This is not the same man I voted for

Yes the fuck it is.

[–] notwhoyouthink@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago

And likely thrice, at that.

At least when and if this is ever over, researchers will have a literal goldmine of data on mass psychosis and the effects of a nationwide death cult on society to research.

[–] guillem@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago (3 children)

And half the world has been telling him since 2016.

[–] foodandart@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 days ago

Oh, but we all have TDS, dont'cha know..

Unfortunately, everything was organized behind the scenes, it seems that they may have a plan to recreate the events from revelation. I'm not even sure if this is the real Trump or his double.

[–] f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

Heritage Foundation and co-fascists seem to believe that they can force a god to bring Jesus Christ back, and that he will return in the form of AI... or they just think that enough of the populace will believe it.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (3 children)

the pedophilia was OK, the bombing little girls was OK, sending masked goons to disappear brown people by the thousands was OK. but groceries went up a bit and now they have a spine?

they are the scum of the earth, and the world will begin to heal once they have their funeral

[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

We must never forget that this is who they are inside. When establishment Dems try to pull the "now it's the time for healing and unity" shit, talk about turning the other cheek and other inappropriate nonsense, we'll all know no one is letting this go. Ever.

There is no waking up.

They WANT a Christofascist nation. They want it bad enough that they are willing to deal with a born rich felon rapist pedophile who doesn't care about them to get it.

To them ALL MEANS JUSTIFY THE END.

It's not an issue of waking up. It's an issue of wanting what they want no matter what. They'll occasionally whine that they aren't getting what they want the way they thought they'd get it, but they're not going to deviate from the path they've chosen.

These are not just confused people. These are BAD people.

[–] BranBucket@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

"Things will get better when we bring about God's kingdom on Earth", etc. etc. yadda, yadda.

[–] terry_jerry@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

There's a lot of takes on trumps supporters, but this one rings true for a large subset of them. It doesn't matter what he does, "he's an instrument of god". They see past everything cause they've been told all of this has a purpose. The question remains how many of them are in this for selfish reasons and will turn on him and how many are in tits deep into the Maga Christian cult to bring back baby jebus.

[–] Dogiedog64@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] Malyca@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 days ago

Again, they can't wake up without professional therapy measured in years. This is an identity cult.

[–] ZeroCool@piefed.ca 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Perhaps this will finally make them wake up

Unfortunately it didn't. Conservatives were immediately telling each other that "it wasn't that bad and tHe RaDiCaL lEfT were just taking it out of context." But as is often the case, the context does not make it any better.

"Not even a little bit. The only thing that matters when I’m talking about Iran—they can’t have a nuclear weapon. I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing—we cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon. That’s all." - Donald Trump, military.com, USA Today

He's a narcissistic psychopath who chose to break the Iran deal, but the context shows that preventing a nuclear-armed Velâyat-e Faqih is more important.

Also, “It’s what our system produces: Garbage in, garbage out. If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, […] you’re going to get selfish, ignorant leaders.” – George Carlin, YouTube

"It was finally after trump cut off the baby's head and drank it's blood live on TV that I started to think 'Hey, I may have backed the wrong guy'". Meanwhile, your inner quiet voice said, 'let's wait and see'.
