    I mean, I don’t have a problem with hating Trump being a personality trait. explain why I should like him, he represents everything I despise and is making my country somehow am even bigger laughing stock of the world. Now I obviously know this is a problem with American elites…far beyond trump but he’s effectively the CEO of the country and as such would be the person to blame.Just as they like to say Biden this Obama that Clinton this other thing…not that any of it matters anyways because obviously one single person doesn’t control much anyways as people should know

    I mean I think he’s a character and fun to watch sometimes, but that’s about it. don’t really know how you can make Trump look worse than he already does with his hateful vile words and disgraceful record. he’s brought a new level of corruption to an already corrupt office, which I find quite astounding

    I can’t see how anyone would be like, ‘why are people so quickly anti trump’ if you ask me-- noone with braincells and good intentions should be supporting him (or the Dems for that matter)! but certainly not an administration that is actively covering up one of the greatest child trafficking rings in modern history.

    sorry for the rant but I just truley do not get this take 😭

    I’d be more shocked if I came to lemmy and it read like r/conservatives

      Because that’s exactly what Trump supporters do: don’t think critically, just blindly, loyally assume the opposition must always be incorrect.

      It’s not about supporting him or not, it has nothing to do with that. It’s about seeing through objectively false posts (often posted for money, attention, or simply from gut feelings) and people cheering them on, which is exactly what has empowered Trump and given his supporters something to point to painting them as victims of lies.

      You should set aside any thought about Trump and look at the material first. That’s critical thinking, in a nutshell.

      Or you can play the engagement hate game that got that man into office.
