There are honest supporters on both sides of the aisle, but when they bad, they bad. Looking back over the years, we had honest believing supporters of 45 showing up faithfully to his rallies, whether it be rain or shine- they showed the love.

Obama and Clinton had their faithful supporters, but none that l can recall " heeded the call" to storm the nation's Capitol or march down streets armed to the teeth, calling themselves: Oath Keepers or 3% ters, whatever that meant.

l had to look up the true definition of a Militia- turns out ..A militia is generally an army or some other fighting organization of non-professional soldiers, citizens of a country, or subjects of a state, who may perform military service during a time of need..
that's when l asked " perform military service DURING A TIME OF NEED?

Then it dawned to me, Trump was fulfiling the NEED these guys desperately craved, which is why they had " no problem" hearing him mouthing off about the election being stolen, and it was now their duty to " perform military service because the United States Armed forces were not going to " Stop the Steal" they, the Oath Keepers and others had to act.

That mentality is what makes them do what they do- like this guy defecating on his neighbour's lawn. When you can take to the water as " Boaters for Trump or Bikers for Trump" you can do whatever the Commander in Chief tells you to do, after all, he calls the shots and whether Trump wants to deny it or not: He Called The Shots on Jan 6th. It's true, 45 did not tell this guy specifically to do what he did, but a fish rots from the head down, so to speak.

Trump set the tone and his disciples simply following his example, charismatic leaders have that kind of influence over their followers- think me crazy? Well, Jim Jones followers took up arms at their compound in Guyana because they were devoted to JJ.
Delusional Trump supporters have the same mentality and will do anything for Trump. It's hard to deny the facts when you make the comparisons- both ultimate missions, one based on religion, the other politics- Led to people being killed.

"A well regulated Militia"

The 1903 "Dick Act" created well regulated state National Guards and reserves and repealed all previous Militia Acts. Part of the Act allowed National Guard units to be deployed outside their state and over seas. Know of several guard members doing multiple tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Enrique Tarrio's group is not a "well regulated militia" regardless how they want to define themselves. And many of them are charged for their criminal actions on January 6.

Funny you should mention that- we have our local looney posting stuff about liberal women over the age of who knows what having mental health issues, well yeah/ it’s all the stress they having to go through.

One would think that conservative women don’t have those issues, it’s a “ liberal thing” much like these guys thinking God is only with conservatives. Just take a look at what Flynn & Powell said at a “ God & country festival “ encouraging Coup’s and installing ex President’s in the WH.

Those women who were in the thick of things at the Capitol on Jan 6th & were subsequently arrested- do they have mental health issues? There was a Mother of 6 in the corridors of the Capitol, you telling me they were all “ normal?”
Yikes.

@ Stack47, EXCELLENT JOB!

I've never read or heard someone explain this dilemma better than you just did. Kudos!

Correct Noise...Getting close to abortion and choices....sorry...a fetus is not Human. Most aborts are done well before the disputed times, with very extreme conditions as exceptions. This notion of mass killings is just another narrative being pushed by uninformed individuals egged-on by the likes of tRumpy-boy wanna-be dick tator WORLD IDIOT!!!

Many typical male Trump Republicans don't want women to have the Right of choosing to terminate her pregnancy regardless of the circumstances. In 2017 they controlled the House, Senate, and the presidency but did nothing to overturn Roe v Wade. Is the religious right pretending they did?

In 2021 both the Republican House and Senate members voted against giving Americans a stimulus package to help get through the pandemic and now some of them are bragging how they helped their constituents. Bet many of the typical Trump supporters that really needed the money still believe the Republican lies and will vote for them in the next election.

The last time I looked in KY the Republicans controlled state House and Senate want the Governor to stop the $300 Federal unemployment benefit to force the workers to go back to work at minimum ($7.25 an hour) wage. Makes no sense but even after making $280 a week those typical Trump supporters will still vote Republican in the next election.

I probably said this before, but if Trump was this Great thing, this political Messiah the Maga folks think he is or was- why did he lose, and lose badly?
After all, this guy had the backing of just about every Evangelical in the country, pastors across the nation preaching from their pulpits on what a Great Man he was, that he, Trump was being " Used by God" in America's hour of need, the only one who could right our moral ship. Some even compared him to Cyrus of old. Funny that another Cy, namely Cy Vance is attempting to bring the full weight of the justice system down on Trump & his shady business dealings.

We have front row seats.

Here's an example, "there were no socials or internet when Reagan was POTUS".

Had they did a simple search of "history of the Internet" they could have learned it began in the 1960s.

While how social media was presented in the 1980s when Reagan was president was different, opinions on Reagan's job performance was expressed on nightly news, Sunday morning political TV shows, and in news paper editorials. They probably never heard of the "Iran/Contra affair"

Is it unfair to say some typical Trump supporters are uneducated, ignorant, or just plain stupid?

*Its no wonder the Maga folks only write SHORT sentences, their brain cannot comprehend stringing thoughts together. Think me crazy, just take a look around.

*Some are scared to death of commenting in the news section, if they do- it's stuff like " Great, wonderful win, l'm next" and so forth. Before you know it,they start calling people names, or repeat ad nauseum on a very simple question, which is answered indirectly.

*Imagine if someone asked you : have traveled abroad, and you say Yes.

*The next question is " have you traveled abroad? Wouldn't you feel something is amiss here, l mean what part of " Yes" don't you get?


*I was asked " So what are Biden's accomplishments? I said, well the guy has only been in office from Jan 20th, thats a little over 3 WHOLE months.

*I mean what part of the brain is at work here where you constantly asked about accomplishments in such a short span of time?

*No its not unfair to call supporters of him uneducated & ignorant.

Yep, calling it like it is. Can't wait to hear their excuses when Federal Marshals are knocking at Trump's door.

It's starting to look like I should have said "typical radical Trump Supporter" because what I read on the LP Blogs isn't nothing like what the Trump Supporters I personal know say. What we're reading here is almost the same thing the people arrested for insurrection and vandalizing the Capital Building would say.

One of Trump's accomplishments was in just four years, he appointed 54 judges on the 13 US circuit courts. Too bad most of those judges threw out Trump's fraudulent vote counting claims in their courts.
