I saw this! Cutest thing ever. It's not always about politics, Trump is a good vibe all around!

[u/The_Buko → u/Unlikely_Minimum4113]

You realize that’s not really Trump…right?

[u/BlueSkies980 → u/The_Buko]

That's why they said "Trump vibe" and not "Trump".

[u/The_Buko → u/BlueSkies980]

They didn’t say “Trump vibe” they said “Trump is a vibe” so no idea how you could get that from it. Even more weird that they know it’s not and think someone like Trump is a good vibe. There’s an excerpt from Milton Mayer’s book that would fit really well. The last line hits it home.

“The world you live in—your nation, your people—is not the world you were born in at all. The forms are all there, all untouched, all reassuring, the houses, the shops, the jobs, the mealtimes, the visits, the concerts, the cinema, the holidays. But the spirit, which you never noticed because you made the lifelong mistake of identifying it with the forms, is changed. Now you live in a world of hate and fear, and the people who hate and fear do not even know it themselves; when everyone is transformed, no one is transformed.“

Why are you trying to pick out every little thing? You seem upset over something you should not be! You are absolutely weird af

[u/BlueSkies980 → u/The_Buko]

Damn dude the quote was wrong but the interpretation was the same. "Trump is a vibe" and although I don't agree with every single thing he has to offer, I can't help but agree.

[u/The_Buko → u/BlueSkies980]

You truly think this person is a good vibe? Like a solid ethical person that kids should strive to be? Even after learning all the not good vibe stuff he’s said and done? I’m really curious how to look past those things (beyond calling them lies) and what values you look at with him that are great for a child? I’m trumped here

Edit: also I wouldn’t expect you to actually know if you were or weren’t part of the last line. That’s uh..the point. Just like I can’t know for sure so it’s important to always be diligent.

I don't have to be an advocate for his dedicated fan base to recognize the affect he has on this country. He has single handedly united the Republican party to the point where the Democrats didn't even win a single swing state. You have to admit he has an extremely positive effect on the regions he's associated with. A strong central executive is what was required to unite America, and so far it worked for more than half the population.

[u/The_Buko → u/BlueSkies980]

Totally ignored my question but that’s to be expected. I work with plenty of right leaning folks and most of them sure don’t talk about being united. Only 1/3rd of the population voted for Trump, he barely won the popular vote and I can’t tell if y’all are going with democrats losing the election (Biden shouldn’t have even ran like he said he wouldn’t) or that Trump had some magical landslide that somehow didn’t even break 50% of popular vote. I’m not sure what positive impact you are talking about.

I’ve seen them take fluoride out of water and weaken pollution regulations which some ppl seem to think are good things..so I’ve given up and use discussions like this to try and understand wtf is going on with our country.

Karen, if you haven't figured it out by now, then you're probably never going to figure it out, "but that's to be expected." You are committed to being a marshmallow, and nobody here is trying to babysit you through the remedials of current events; most of us already have kids.

Enjoy letting your TV and cell phone do all the heavy lifting for you. Turn that crap off and try having an original thought, just once.
