Brilliantly written. By a staunch conservative. I'd like to hear any Trump supporter defend their vote after reading this.

Trump isn't fit to be President. blah blah blah. He betrayed the nation. blah blah blah. Country above all else. blah blah blah. Trump is anti-democratic and anti-Constitution. blah blah blah. Today's Republican party sucks. blah blah blah. January 6. blah blah blah. Autocracy and lawlessness. blah blah blah. The rule of law is at stake. blah blah blah.

Kamala Harris will honor democracy, the Constitution, and the rule of law. Yeah, uh huh.

To me, this is what I would expect from someone like you. It's not provocative it's just smalls words from a selfish human.
283,000,000 Americans didn't vote for Trump.

Just the response I figured from you. You don't have the capacity to think "country above party". You've voted Republican your whole life, and will do so again....like a Pavlov dog.

You're too fucking dumb to see what this asshole will do to a lower middle class business owner like yourself.

If, God forbid, this schmuck gets in office, the only small joy will be telling you, :I told you so".

I -am- putting country above party by voting for Trump. Never-Trump Republicans are putting their unbridled hatred of Donald Trump over country, in my view.

Today's Democrat party doesn't align with my values or political views, at all. So why would I vote for a Democrat?

He was President for 4 years while I owned my business. I did just fine. Also funny that you assume I'm lower middle class.

So basically, your view is that anybody who doesn't vote the way you do is a dumb motherfucker? Is that what you're suggesting? MegaHertz has already just earlier today said that anybody who votes for Trump is "ignorant, stupid, racist, hateful, immature and hurtful."

You know what your problem is, and why Trump is going to win again? Because you and too many people like you didn't learn your lesson from Hillary's Basket-of-Deplorables comment in 2016. Keep calling your fellow American an ignorant stupid racist hateful immature hurtful ass-backwards dumb motherfucking Hitler loving Nazi fascist all because of how that person votes. THAT is what is wrong with country. And MegaHertz - if you're reading this, that last line is directed at you too.

He was President for 4 years. Does everyone have amnesia? The world didn't end. The US is still standing. We made it through. And if he's President for another 4 years, life will go on again, just like it did the first time around. Same is true if Kamala wins. The difference is, if Kamala wins - and in particular if somehow the Dems got the House and the Senate - they would make fundamental changes including making Puerto Rico a State (ie, 2 more Democrats in the Senate and 1 more in the House), packing the Supreme Court, and giving amnesty and citizenship to people here illegally (ie, more Democrat voters), thus ensuring that no Republican ever holds a high level of power ever again.

Translation: The prospect of what Democrats in full control would do scares me far more than a Trump presidency. But hey, what do I know? I'm just a dumb fucking racist hurtful Hitler loving Nazi who can't think for myself.

Look… it’s funny to watch you spin like a top. It’s not funny to have you not look around and realize that instead of all the people actively opposing him WHO WORKED WITH HIM THE FIRST TIME being there to stop him from doing really stupid shit we are gonna have yes men who won’t push back one bit on even the most insane of ideas. This time ain’t remotely the same as last time. The guardrails are gone and he’s gonna take that Supreme Court ruling and run with it and call any and all actions official acts and just try to stop me. That likely includes arresting Biden, Harris and Walz on made up charges for starters. He’ll order his AG to make it up.

Harris spending a friggin' hour promoting abortion, with no mention of some fetal rights, shows some kind of demented evil.

She made no mention of father's rights either.

Honestly, you're not worth my time. You called 49 percent of the population, presumably me included, "ignorant, stupid, racist, hateful, immature and hurtful." If that's your opinion of half of the people who live here, perhaps you would be happier living in a different country.

Oh, and btw, your comment makes you by definition a bigot.
