    Default Why...?

    Why do Trumpers double-down on Trump as a president? Where’s their logic? What’s his logic?

    I guess for me it is a case of "look at the alternatives."

    Many trump voters in my view are refugees of the ever increasing tribalism in both our politics and media. So Trump for many was the rejection of all that more so than wow what a great guy. So now as tribalism as only increased accepting anything that is from what they were escaping from is rejected. It is in many ways a rejection more so than acceptance for many.
    The mistake is too many dismiss as racist, stupid etc.... and fail to appreciate the dynamic that produced trump to begin with. It is why I feel Trump is a symptom of tribalism and those that dismiss and label him as the problem only reinforce why so many rejected traditional candidates to begin with. Once you appreciate what is rejected the double down as you say is totally rational even if you disagree with it.

    Why do we have another Trump thread?
     "He has a swaggering retro machismo that will give hives to the Steinem cabal" -Camille Paglia on Donald Trump

    "But, fucking with Brook is like fucking with hot shit on and ax handle. You just don't get a grip"-track5

    "Make way for the bad guy"- Tony Montana

    'This hamburger don't need no helper"- David Lee Roth

    "I wish Bon Jovi would've given me a call before he recorded all of his hits, because the lyrics would've been smarter, the melodies would've been much more smashing, and they would've sold a lot fewer records." -David Lee Roth

    "My beef is people thinking Bon Jovi is good cuz they sold lots of records to housewives." -tango

    "But being number one doesn’t really mean jack fuck all. We sold twice as many records as other records that year (1984) that landed in the Number One position." ~Eddie Van Halen

    No shit. The Trump supporters have already said over and over again why they support his policies vs the anti-America life long politicians that don't do shit for America.

    Fuck yeah they did. Sliced it, dissected it, broke it down and explained it to even before the election. But the blind ones thought it was still 1996. Shit, some still do.

    Yeah, nothing more pro-America than advancing your business interests in Turkey and Russia...
