....that and a terrible disappointment.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

He always was. What he did to Cruz is unforgivable.

Accusing DeSantis of animal abuse is pretty low, too. I guess they all figure they're safe from defamation suits (that whole "public figure" thing).

What, so pointing out the truth about an eight-year pattern of behavior is subjective now?

That's the problem here. Trumpism is just like the alphabet soup lobby, wanting to redefine truth. A boy is a girl, if Trump says so.

Not my fight, but I'm just going to say that I don't believe that was forgiveable either, but I still was able to evaluate Trump objectively and choose to vote for him in 2016 and 2020.

Just because you vote for a guy doesn't mean you forgive him.  It just means you voted for him despite that action.

@DCPatriot  -- so we should just turn a blind eye when he makes up accusations and continues to bully conservatives?  What good does that do the country???  Regardless of what he's done in the past ... how can we expect to move forward with him as president as a nation??? Keep in mind that very few things that he implemented are actually in practice today. 

Yet he has the audacity to go after conservatism??? The very existence of our Republic, according to MAGA supporters rests on his shoulders. 

So, please explain how he will move this country forward, if he can't even stick behind the very foundation upon which our country was founded.

He is confusing -- he certainly gives patriotic speeches, but then in the next breath he'll fire off absurdities to those who are conservative. How does he expect to destroy Biden while playing this game?

I was very moved during his pre-inauguration address and his inauguration in general -- he presented himself as a whole different person ..... you're one of his biggest supporters, perhaps you can help me to understand.

Yes, I honestly want to understand.

Well "NO SHIT, SHERLOCK!"  Welcome to the party!

That's the entire premise of the hourly, daily, monthly argument with these pompous jerks!

They openly declare they are withholding their vote for him.  :laugh:

Oh bullcrap. Tell me that ignoring the same bullshit all over again is somehow needed to be objective. It is what it is. And what it is is Tumpy lying AGAIN like a sack of sh*t. It's juvenile lying to gain advantage over his competitors. That is not winning. EVER.

Not confusing at all. Welcome to populism, which sticks its finger in the air and says whatever is popular at the time... It is not founded in principle or sound objectives. It is founded on bullsh*t.

Oh, I'm also one of those pompous jerks who've openly declared that I'm withholding my vote for him in 2024.  I was just pointing out that I voted for him in 2016 and 2020 despite not having forgiven him for what he said about Cruz.  He was a lousy candidate back then too, but I thought him better than the alternative both times so I voted for him anyway.

He's now a much worse candidate than he was in 2016 or 2020, and I can't rationalize voting for him again in 2024.  So if he's the nominee, I'll either write in someone or just vote downticket.

Big difference in now vs 2016, was DJT then was kind of a blank slate, so the binary argument at that time had some validity.

Fast fowarding to 2024, with Freedom Cities, Bonus Babies, and a shift Pro-Life positions?  Trump's hard left turn in unmistakable.   It's not a matter of witholding vote.  It is more of why would we promote and support a candidate that doesn't  represent our values.

Respectfully, I'll be voting for the most conservative candidate available.  Even if it is a 3rd party choice.

Trump zealots do not waste time 'thinking'.  They simply blurt out the first lie that pops in their heads.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

They don't care if it is true.  They only care if the accusation may give them a momentary political advantage.

You can destroy opposing politicians in a number of ways. One is to make false accusations of immoral or improper conduct. Another is to use lawfare. 

Apparently, many Trump supporters expect the rest of us to consider the former a perfectly acceptable form of hardball politics that we should just "get over".  "Quit whining about mean tweets", etc.

But then they demand that we rally around Trump when Democrats try to destroy him politically through lawfare.  A complete double standard.

Personally, I believe wrongful accusations designed to unfairly destroy the reputation of another person are disqualifying, regardless of whether they involve the legal system or not.

Excellent comments, and it should not go unmentioned that probably  a good line share of the money DJT has raised the past 6 months has likely gone toward the Roger Stone- David Pecker Slime machine.  These two were behind almost all the character assasinations by the Trump camp back and in '16, and those toward RDS this year.

I wonder if his supporters really care.

Except being that she's the Gov of Iowa, it could backfire at caucus which is just around the corner if it catches fire. Stupid move really.
