The blind faith element I beleive is that trump was able to manipulate masses in a religous like fervor. I once during campaign read an article i searched for on cult leaders, it was a non political article written before the campaign begun from phycology today. It listed 50 signs of a cult leader and in my opinion he fit 48 of them. These people have a skill or knack to pull people into their spell.

One of the most striking ones was leading followers to a state of isolation to where the leader is the sole source of truth... Think about this, he has turned anyone who disagrees into an untrusted enemy, anyone who doesn't go along is evil for opposing him, literally every unflattering story is "Fake News".... So once people have been lead into this it is tough to get them out, as they truly trust no one but the leader.

It is truly scary this man has the hearts and minds of a 1/3 of our country...

I expect all people to respond to activites that promote their own self interest. Dems earned the vote of minorities through action. blacks aren't tethered to any affiliation. Trump's maga slogan itself refers to racist nostalgia. He draws about zero blacks because of his appalling history of racism, his support for racist organizations, his fear of alienating his core supporters who are plainly motivated by white power ideology.

Being pro-gun & against abortion, he easily got the entire bible belt. Those people aren't very bright. A lot of business owners openly support Trump on Facebook & twitter, which is a very bad idea. They should not limit their market like that, regardless of which side they support. It's just a dumb thing to do.

im not giving your are hard time I promise

im just curious

how do you define big government?

Big government:
Unnecessary wars, socialism, high taxes, drug war, federal reserve bank, 20 trillion debt, government spying / PATRIOT Act, unconstitutional federal agencies (NSA, Planned Parenthood, EPA, FDA), welfare


On a lesser extent: dog licenses, vehicle inspections / fishing licenses. Being forced to wear seat belt and other victimless crimes. This type of bullshit we have to deal with that are just supposed to be free liberties in the Constitution.

oh yeah and shitty Obamacare got me fined for not having health care (by my own choice) which costed me thousands.

I want to be left alone to control my own destiny; not be in some sort of forced "collective" that the left (and most of the right) is always trying to force onto others.

i honestly don't know....

has the republican party ever had a black presidential candidate that won the primary?

Give me a break. Of The final 4 remaining candidates (Cruz, Rubio, Carson, and Trump), 3 weren't considered "white".

Ted Cruz is half Cuban. Marco Rubio and Ben Carson aren't white either.

It is happening everywhere... I live in a very conservative area. Its always been an unwritten rule socially that its not talking politics in public if its a slam against liberals, but I was the one being a dick if I even defended a stance. I've always somewhat let that happen except maybe right during elections. Well no fucking more! I am not silent anymore when it gets mentioned I don't hold back. But I try keeping my cool and use reason, as we must win back the hearts and minds...

I lived in Idaho for about 10 years. Loved the state and its people. I had this sense the these truly right wing people had no idea what they were talking about when they castigated liberals. They never left their bubble and found out. It was as if "dumb" was liberal and they were smart. Of course they were ignorant as all hell but I still loved many of them as dear friends. It was as if once accepted into the circle, they ignored my liberal views as one would a handicap. They learned when to tone it down and I learned not to bring it up. But some good times were had along the rivers of that beautiful state. I do recall the outrage one of my friend's wives expressed when I told her about a really good meal I fixed that contained no meat.

Home of Larry "Wide Stance" Craig.

I can't bond with conservatives of the teabagger or trumptard varieties, but many "normal" conservatives aren't bad people. A little confused, but not bad.

You talk like you have an ego problem. Your not God's gift to the world, you're a guy on an internet forum. Show some humility if you're gonna act righteous
