I will never understand how people make who they vote for
Jul 23, 2021, 12:04 PM

their entire identity.
I voted for Joe.
I don't have one single Biden flag
I don't even have a bumper sticker.
I remember when who you voted for was a personal question that people would get offended over.
Now a political candidate/president is their entire identity.

It's almost like back in the middle ages when you would go against the Catholic church and they would toss you out of society

I'm not sure, in real life, people get ostracized to that extent very often.

Mention you voted democrat one time around here and you're instantly ostracized.
I told my mom I was voting for Biden and she cried.

My vote for Joe was 100% an anti trump vote
Jul 23, 2021, 12:16 PM
|

and I do not regret it one bit.
Joe could literally drool all over the presidential podium and do absolutely nothing for 4 years and I will be fine with that.

Obama tshirts and bumper stickers. I agree it happens on both sides, but I think it’s incredibly stupid. I do think Trump lovers have made Trump more of their personal identity than Obama lovers did Obama, but that’s just my personal observation/opinion. Dumb either way.

Trump is a once in a lifetime cult figure and it's unlikely we'll have to deal with that kind of nonsense again. It will be interesting to see once Trump is gone for good if the Trumpkins try to slither back and claim to uphold the conservative principles that they ignored or looked the other way just so they could please DADDY.

Here you go-the words “slither back”. Their is part of the problem with discourse.

That person fails, they think it's a condemnation of themselves and their character. I think that's why so many people on this board pitched a fit over Trump criticism even though they knew he was a ###### president.

Mark Sanford was once the most conservative and principled politician we had.
Then he took a hike on the application trail.
I keep waiting for that shoe to drop with Trump, but I think even if it does, his hard core fans won't care.
