A simple question, is it possible that so many people seeth hatred for Trump because of when speaks bluntly or gets rough it convincts people of their weak stunted personality? Is it possible ravage in hatred for him because thsy are not capable speaking in a unabashed manner and they hate him for provoking their weakness?

I’m talking exclusively about the people fhat wohld wish death on him, but can’t listen to one speech to point out individual policies that they disagree for why they are against them. I’m not asking about people who can name a topic that they don’t like Trump’s position on that topic, this is a question only about TDS people.

Edit - As proven by the replies, the very people I was referancing still prove themselves to be mental cases and whackjob who can’t control their own vomit. Everybody that replied only talk like that on the internet, they wouldn’t try saying it face to face to an anti-government libertarian who would mock them in person, reject everything they believe question their every statement.

    Tribalism, it comes down to if you’re with our group, you must hate the other group.

    This kind of thinking helps keep the working class divided and fighting over scraps while the owner class continues to rake in all the important resources.

    George Carlin, comedian, has spoken about this:

    “Governments don’t want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own, and control the corporations. They’ve long since bought, and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pockets and they own all the big media companies, so they control just about all of the news and information you get to hear.”

      I would agree with you, around 90% of that I am in agreement.

      I find it equally peculiar that the anti-police, “Trump is a Nazi fascist” crowd do not support the overthrow of the American government.

    He’s a piece of shit rapist, why are you defending him? His speeches are generally incoherent but when you can make out what he’s trying to say it’s just hatred and pointing the finger at others. He’s stacking the government with bootlickers with no experience. His policies will lead to death.

    I know nothing you’re asking is in good faith but…

    There’s a difference between your doctor being a little blunt about how you have cancer and aren’t going to live much longer and your doctor telling you that immigrants caused your cancer and his perfect tariffs are gonna cause healing like you’ve never seen and everyone will come up to him with tears in their eyes and tell him “sir, no one thought you could cure cancer with tariffs but you did it.”

    Trump is the second one, in case you couldn’t tell.

    Dude has been breaking all sorts of laws his entire life. Including during his first administration. His policies consistently hurt the majority of his constituents for the sole benefit of himself and his cronies. His behavior and rhetoric have made America even more of a laughing stock on the world stage and his campaign promises have near single handedly strengthened America’s “enemies” and pushed away our “friends.”

    Trump did 3 good things in 4 years of office:

    • Legalized Hemp
    • Banned bump stocks (overturned by the judges he appointed)
    • Expedited the covid vaccine production (botched everything else about the pandemic response including vaccine distribution)

    Trump has flirted with a presidential run in 1988, 2000, 2012, 2016, 2020, and 2024 under the Republican, Reform, and Democratic party tickets. It was only the republican party that he found bolstered enough support for him to win. He left the Reform party for the Democrats after involvement from David Duke. But later refused to disavow a direct endorsement from David Duke.

    What does that tell you about Trump?

    It tells me that he shops around looking out only for ways to bolster himself, his wealth, and his power. He doesn’t have a consistent moral and he doesn’t stand for America. He stands for Trump. His next administration is the wealthiest in history and his announced policies will siphon more money from the working class to him and his oligarchs. That’s why I say that Trump’s a RINO–he tried out a bunch of different parties and despite not sharing the traditional beliefs of the Republican platform calls himself a Republican because it serves him.

    He’s talked about invading our closest allies which has led directly to an increase in military recruitment not to fight our common enemies but to fight us directly.

    He’s talked about blanket tariffs on all foreign goods. These tariffs will be paid by the American public. This will encourage American companies to raise the price of their own goods to: 1) recover the extra cost of imported materials, 2) close the price gap between their own goods and the now more expensive foreign goods. This will also encourage foreign governments to establish retaliatory tariffs on American exports which will also lead to American companies raising prices to make up for lost sales. This won’t just affect things like toys or electronics. American food is imported, lumber for home construction is imported, oil for gasoline is imported, electricity is imported. Literally everything in America will cost more if his tariffs go into effect.

    I can afford that–can you?

    Trump found a group of people that will blindly follow him and he manipulated and lied to them to convince them to give him power once again–even after getting our spies killed, leaking our nuclear and security secrets to our enemies, attempting a self coup to remain in power, and botching the plan to leave Afghanistan.

    Trump supporters are not necessarily stupid people and I don’t think someone is necessarily stupid for supporting him, but they haven’t taken the time to look into and understand the effects of his claims, they were lied to, used, and led astray by a populist strongman who doesn’t care about them and who will actively work to better himself at their expense.

    I think you have it exactly backwards - that the people who hate him just in and of himself do so for very good reason - because he’s a foul, self-absorbed, sociopathic serial liar, manupulator and rapist - and that it’s the people who ignore the plain truth about him and grant him respect he doesn’t deserve who are motivated by their own weakness.

    You want to hate him, but he’s just so pathetic. Also the policies of the party are backwards. Just watch, you’ll get everything you voted for and then some.
