Did you READ the OP of this thread?

Are you really gonna defend that as “just a post about trump”?

When there are triple digit nasty posts about Trump and his supporters in many of the forums here a few gloating one seem appropriate.

Always nice to hear from a member of Trump’s high-IQ cabinet.

You misunderstand Trump voters. Sure, the Republicans will repeal the ACA. Sure, millions of people will be without insurance. Sure, thousands of people will die. But there is _absolutely_ no possibility that Trump voters will blame anyone but Obama.

Calling people whiners. Pretty stale but an okay start. +1

Extra space and lack of punctuation. You shouldn’t let mistakes like that slip through. You get points for style. -2

Minority squeaky wheel? I haven’t seen that one much, +2, but your nonsensical delivery renders it ineffective. -2.

Prog? Too obscure. -1

“Prog SJW snowflakes”. Way too repetitive. You used that in your last post. -3

“Squeaky wheel prog SJW snowflakes” Too much going on there. That’s just poor form. -3

“Stink pit”. Not bad, but still grade school level. +1

“Losers”. I see you enjoy parroting the words of our new Projector in Chief. +2

“Safe spaces”. Still being repetive. -2

Sheeple? Really? Your trolling is too obvious. Your biggest mistake. -5.

Total score: -12

Disappointing performance. At this rate, you’ll never be as good a troll as your God Emperor.

My father believes, as he has a lot of faith in humanity, that there will be a breaking point even for the trump supporters, but I hear what you are saying and it’s hard to argue with.

For the absolute, rock-solid trumpiviks, yeah, they will not crack. But have you noticed how often, lately, some of them here have been kinda vacillating? Heading away from “Yay! Trump!” to “Well, he’s got some problems, but Hillary was worse…” Even a couple of “I didn’t vote for him, but you guys are assholes!”.

The erosion has already begun.

My mother, who sent me photos of her front yard bedecked with an embarrassment of American flags, and of her celebratory glass of wine (full, then empty), seems to be safely outside of the erosion zone.

I support Trump but I actually agree with what you’re saying here. If the OP had posted that in the Pit then fair enough. In Elections it’s pure trolling, posting to get a reaction. The guy should have been warned, he must know how this board works.

That’s how Fox News calculates its “Fair and Balanced” formula, I understand.

What’s great about people like you calling people like me those things is that since I have a lot of self-awareness I know they aren’t true. It doesn’t offend me because the only insult is to yourself. It reveals your lack of character and lack of awareness. It weakens the strength of everything that you ever might have to say.

I’m prepared to cut the OP a little slack, since he’s clearly a man in the process of going his own way.
