Re: Trannies for Trump
If the opinion is ridiculous, ridicule the opinion - not the one who opined. If the opined persists, then they too are open to ridicule.

Re: Trannies for Trump
My stance on the election so far is posted in various threads of the 'politics and religion' section.
I'm not voting for Trump...
but you have a right to voice your support for anyone you wish. I absolutely support that.
but once you state your reasons, there's usually a debate.

Re: Trannies for Trump
That is what I meant, thank you. Sure I chose an extreme example, but it wasn't meant to be taken literally. It's called satire: "the use of humour, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues."
Just for the record Mr 'Hyperbolic', I was not suggesting that Trump would put transexuals into concentration camps or have them gassed. Does it not occur to you that your own reaction is just a touch hyperbolic? And how about not calling people a "fucking idiot" just because they express a view you don't like?
It's true that Trump has expressed some liberal views in the past, but he has clearly moved to the right more recently. Why would you trust someone to support tolerance in office when their election pitch is based primarily on appealing to intolerance? I suspect the guy actually has no principles other than doing or saying anything he thinks will advance his self-interest at the time.

Re: Trannies for Trump
While I don't subscribe to his far right agenda, I gotta say the article itself is smart and funny while it hurls insults.
It's subtle in its condescension, like when he denies having an "irrational fear of people who suffer from gender dysphoria" as a way of saying transgender people have a mental illness.
One the other hand I would say he's immersed himself chaser culture, at least to the point of knowing the terms "batshit" and "pass" lol

Re: Trannies for Trump
This is what makes Trump IMO a very dangerous proposition as the next POTUS.
He has no core values. Never has. Trump believes EVERYTHING is transactional, something to be negotiated for his advantage.
His final goal is self-enrichment.
What's in it for him and how can he game the system.
However the conservatives are swallowing him whole, convincing themselves a billionaire who's never put his skin in the game for a cause other than himself, is suddenly going to become this populist hero fighting for the middle class and American jobs.
LOL.
Once the king makers get in Donald's ear and show him how he can really get rich by making the right deals in the Oval Office, all these Trump devotees are going to convince themselves they never really voted for him.

Re: Trannies for Trump
Surely the key point is that in the USA anyone can become President? I write from a country where we do not, and for the foreseeable future will not have the right to elect our Head of State, or the upper chamber of our Parliament. I can't vote in the US and I think Trump is an idiot, but he is an American and has as much right to run for the White House as you do. Maybe you should give it a shot.
PS Nobody needs compare Trump to Hitler when there are plenty of Americans to compare him to.
