‘Our System Needs to Be Broken, and He Is the Man to Do It’

Read this yesterday.

This man's a fucking idiot, and should be disqualified from voting due to glaring mental retardation. He demonstrates ZERO understanding of policy, governance, economics, or civic values, yet he still talks out of both sides of his mouth to justify his idolatry of Trump.

"America needs Law and Order! Criminals need to be thrown in jail!"

So what about prosecuting Trump for his crimes?

"Oh, not THAT much law and order! He's innocent, but all those Blacks who riot in Portland are guilty!"

Just another straight white men throwing a tantrum because they have to share the world now.

When it's all broken, who does he expect to pay his military pension and his medical insurance?

The Deep State The Deep State of Retardation The Deep State The Deep State The Deep State of Retardation The Deep State The Deep State of Cockamamie Cookoos The Deep State The Deep State The Deep State of Retardation

R1 nailed it.

"It's either my way, or burn it all to the ground."

A grown man acting like a toddler even though, as a straight white man, he's already at the top of the food chain. I'm embarrassed for him.

He's a guy who wants to believe what he wants to believe and eventually finds a way to do it. People tend to fixate on what a candidate they can imagine will deliver what they want.

I wish the writer had probed deeper on what this guy thinks ails America, to bring it out into broad daylight. The writer pushed a little, but the interview got away with alot.

[quote]I wish the writer had probed deeper on what this guy thinks ails America, to bring it out into broad daylight.

No. After Trump won, we had to suffer through four fucking years of endless articles that tried to capture what it is that actually ails deplorables. Enough. Nothing ails these people, they're just fucking deplorable.

Oh, are we back to hanging on every word these as alcoholic (just look at his face) hillbillies spout?

I sure wouldn't want to take a car to be fixed by this man, he would disassemble it to fix the brakes.

I posted this yesterday in another thread. The man is so stupid and psychotic that I really believe New Hampshire needs to start sterilizing people.

Jackasses like this make me lose my faith in diners.

R8, that's what I wanted to see. No more excuses, get down the root of their isms and obias and make them say it.

This clown would be right at home at a diner in the middle of Nowheresville, Ohio.

I'm surprised the NYT isn't crawling up this guy's gaping asshole 24/7. He's just their "type."

"Our System Needs to Be Broken, and He Is the Man to Do It."

"The System" is designed to benefit the Donald J Trumps of the world. The entire US tax code is designed to benefit the Donald J. Trumps of the world. As we now see, the entire US justice system is designed to protect the interests of the Donald J. Trumps of the world. If this moron (and other morons like him) thinks DJT is going to tear down a system that's heavily weighted in favor of DJT, he really is stupider than he lets on.

He’s kinda cute cute. It’s too bad he’s so dumb and amoral.

R15, I think you are looking at the photo of his brother, Fred.

Fred is kinda cute and smells cookies!

[Quote] As we now see, the entire US justice system is designed to protect the interests of the Donald J. Trumps of the world.

He has 92 indictments. Courts are doing fine. Immunity protected him initially and pardon power protects all POTUSes still.

^pardon power was referring to Trump being in office and being able to buy his henchmen’s silence by floating pardons. Point being that those pardon powers should be reformed. Now Trump can regroup and re-employ his supervillains.

Any time someone talks about “doing your own research” it means that he’s fallen down an internet rabbit hole. This guy was won over by the online conspiracy community.

I'm kind of embarrassed that I bought into the belief of American exceptionalism. Trump and his minions cured me of that. There's just so many of them.

I've posted this before, but this is the best explanation I've seen of what's going on here.

In actuality, it's Trumpers who are broken not America.

For real and imagined reasons, those are broken people. Unlike the rest of us, they've refused to get up, to move on, to get help. They're not resilient. They stew in their hurts and plot revenge instead of working towards something better. They look at acceptance and inclusivity and it infuriates them, as they know they're reviled (because of their own actions).

No one wants to be them, except for other scumbags which makes them despondent in their hearts. Instead of taking the hand that is extended towards them --asking them to come with us to the future-- they spit in the face of progress and change. It has to be their way or nothing. Their way or they'll burn it all.

"Why not me? Why not us? Why not just as we are?"

Because you're hateful. Because to make things better, we all have to change. Because we've all left behind things about ourselves as we've moved forward, you just refuse to see it because all you can see it what you want to see.

Interesting I think the one point you are missing is that people leaning towards this ideological realm make up likely about 50% of the voters in this country right now. Instead of resorting to high school ridicule, blanket condemnation based upon the fact the guy is white and heterosexual and accusations of low IQ/alcohol abuse, wouldn't it be more productive to have conversation of how he got to these feelings? Side note, people with low emotional intelligence tend to come out of the gate judgmental, resorting to Middle School insults, etc. Many people on both polar ends of the political spectrum exhibit this behavior. Those of us in the middle need to step up call these people out and open the window for discussion before it's too late.

He himself won’t discuss “how [he] got those feelings,” and it’s not my job to coax some grown-ass man into overcoming his life challenges. He’s 58. He’s missed the boat. As the poster above said, these are the people who are un-help-able.

If I had to guess, I’d say his problem is racism. He dwells on border issues a lot. He has that “why are we helping brown people, nobody ever helped my PWT self” mentality.

HE’S VOTING FOR A RAPIST

when the 13 year old girl begged him to wear a condom while he raped her(so she wouldn’t give birth to a Monster 👹) he beat her while she was tied to the bed

He wouldn't care, R25. People who vote for Trump don't care if he raped their daughters or granddaughters. THEY DON'T CARE.

George Conway:

This is perhaps the most illuminating thing I’ve ever read about Trump𝙞𝙨𝙢, as opposed to Trump himself.

This New Hampshire GOP voter is angry. But he doesn’t really know 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 he’s angry about. He 𝙬𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 to be angry. He 𝙙𝙤𝙚𝙨 know 𝙬𝙝𝙤𝙢 he is angry at—the people who he thinks run the country and who he thinks think themselves better than he. He wants to harm them, even if it harms him, and even if it harms the country—indeed, 𝙚𝙨𝙥𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 if it harms the country, because he thinks harming the country is the best way to harm the people he wants to harm.

Trump supporters fall into four main categories. Some fall into more than one.

1 Christian Nationalists

2 Hardcore Republican Tribalism

3 The Deluded and/or Brainwashed

4 Anarchists who believe the government and the system need to be destroyed and remade in their own twisted idea of a new government and its laws.

China and Russia LOVE this.

I would add a fifth category—people who are looking out only for themselves and will vote for whoever promises tax cuts and deregulation.

This loon gets attention, yet the GOP knows the real deal. And they are shitting themselves. Of course the Koch family is backing Haley. They know Trump means the end of the GOP, probably for good.

LA whole swath of GOP voters appears firmly committed to not voting for Trump in November.”

Should be “A whole swath” not “LA swath”. Bad copy paste. Sorry. ^^^

This dumb old fuck couldn’t find Canada on a map, yet the author treats him as somehow worthy of the spotlight in a national publication. Why should anyone in America care what another ignorant trash hick thinks about government?

He’s worthy of scorn, and pity, and a fresh diaper, but little else.

I disagree R30. A fully lawless Trump is a loose cannon. Lower taxes and deregulation are hardly a given with Trump anymore. He may decide to seize corporations. Perhaps an extreme example, but he’s emboldened, and beholden, to whom we don’t yet know.

That’s part of the point R33. If people like the subject of this article are help up as the typical Trump supporter, it illuminates to many some of what’s wrong with being a Trump supporter. Trump is no longer an unknown quantity and won’t get the benefit of the doubt (how bad can he be?) this time around

[quote] "He has 92 indictments"

Ninety-one. Unless another charge has been added, which he undoubtedly deserves anyway. There will be more civil cases from Jan 6th victims though.

DJT fixded my broken cheeseburger!

"When did guys driving $80k pickup trucks become the most aggressively aggrieved members of our society?

He's a retired Lt. Col., clearing six figures a year, in his 750k house, without a burden in the world.

But he is MAD (He can't really tell you why)."

Comment from ex-news anchor, John Harwood:

"dunno about this guy specifically, but many white Christian men feel aggrieved by a loss of status and primacy in society relative to non-whites and non-Christians and women"

This whiny bitch needs to be horsewhipped.

The son of a bitch has more than 95% of the rest of Americans yet all he can do is bitch and moan. What an asshole.

It's not about what he has, R40. It's what he feels others are *not* entitled to have or not have. And how he ought to be the one to get to decide that as it's always been. Because he feels he and those he sees who are like him [Trump] losing the power to decide who is entitled to have or have not, he's pissed.

So he's desperate for it to go back to how it was or else everything has to be destroyed.

In the words of Will Smith as Hancock, Bitch can try. Fuck these saggy balled old nasty maniacs. They have no souls.

Thanks, R41. Now he's an even bigger entitled, pampered, molly coddled asshole.

I was just going to post what r38 and r40 posted.

This guy practically won the lottery. He’s found TWO women stupid enough to marry him, had a family, stumbled ass backward into s 750k house, and probably no student loans for him because he’s military.

Yet he’s PISSED.

He hates ethnics and elites.

Does his syphilis outbreak count as a charge?

R44 He also hates the fags and the mooslims.

I just read OP's linked article and it's horrifying. I don't think this person ever had any intention of voting for Hayley. The story said he has already voted for Dump twice - but before that he voted for Obama!

What worries me most is what if Dump runs and loses the election again. What will they do this time?

What does "our system needs to be broken" mean? There are no details in the story about what this would entail.

You don’t really think he voted for Obama, do you?

There are, strangely, quite a few Obama/Trump voters.

Perhaps as they get older there are changes in their brain chemistry? Something not quite dementia that affects their ability to reason? This guy sounds irrational, yet at one time he had it together enough to be a Lt. Colonel.

He has alcoholic peepaw nose.

R50 And his bathroom habits are why Wife #2 left him.

The Devil take this geriatric colon!

Guess he never figured that by talking to one Politico reporter he’s wind up being psychoanalyzed by all those fucking coastal elites.

Sweet.

R52 Just because we're not as braindead as this hypocrite doesn't make us "elites."

And given his stated net worth, he's far more of an elite than your average DL poster, who is still trying to sell collectible Flintstones drinking glasses so he can afford a pack of Pall Malls.

What a stupid asshole. He's just mad his self-perceived control over society is slipping away as a straight white male and the "good old days" are fading in the rearview mirror.

I hate Ted Johnson. I can't belive I just typed that sentence, i think "hate" is wrong, but I hate his fat, bloated face and body. I hate everything he has to say. I'm glad his brother recognized what an awful human being he has become over the past few years and the relationship has fractured/ended.

I wish I could kidnap Johnson, have him stripped down to his shorts, stand in front of a mirror and actually look at himself... in all his fat and bloated, flaccid glory. And then he should have to look at himself in a mirror and say, "I, a retired Lt. Colonel of the US Army support Vladimir Putin and his unlawful invasion of Ukraine." and "I, a retired Lt. Colonel from the US Army support a five-time draft deferred draft dodger." And then repeat those phrases on camera for the world to see. And then to his wife he should ghave to say, "I wish I could grab pussy the way Donald Trump does, because that really gets me off."

The man's a pig.

R28 you left off rich people who want MORE AND MORE OF THE PIE

[quote] Interesting I think the one point you are missing is that people leaning towards this ideological realm make up likely about 50% of the voters in this country right now.

Try 30%.

If it was 50% Trump wouldn’t have so much trouble with the popular vote.

Everyone trolldar R23 for a glimpse into what he really thinks.

Hint: He is probably the dude this article was written about.

Can confirm. What a clown. 🤡

R23 Americans like this guy "got to those feelings" after a lifetime of shitty choices and shitty behaviors.

They bullied their gay sons, and now their gay sons don't visit them at Christmas.

They chose football and beer in high school, and flunked out of community college, and now their job is being done by an immigrant or a robot.

They smoke, drank, and ate bacon sandwiches, and now they're too fat to fit in an airplane seat. But that's all the fault of the vegans.

They scorned books and the people who read them, and think anyone who goes near a library is a child molester or an egghead wimp. But those eggheads are the doctors keeping them alive and the lawyers keeping them out of prison.

They stuck around dying towns "for family reasons," and now have no viable jobs.

They blame their lot in life on uppity women, queers, Mexicans, and A-rabs. Also, more than a few blame it on the Jews.

And along comes shithead Donald Trump, king of the deadbeats, to say "Don't cry, losers! You can be just like me! I'm a billionaire with a gold toilet and a whore for a wife! Make me your king, and I'll give you the respect you deserve (but bafflingly, never bothered to earn)!"

Hillary got it right. THEY ARE DEPLORABLES. She shouldn't have said so out loud, at that time. Now we can just say it because it's painfully true.

R60=brilliant.

Hillary is almost always right.

Hillary was an idiot. You never criticize your opponents' voters (see Mitt Romney for a good example). She failed to define herself as something other than someone who thought it was their turn and she had no idea what to do with Trump.

Trump insults EVERYONE who doesn't kiss his ass.

I guess that's ok, though. It's always a different story for him.

R64 is apparently illiterate, as Hillary had very well-articulated policy statements on her website since 2015.

Now, I do understand that r64 is likely illiterate, unable to access the internet, and / or otherwise deplorable trash..

But whose fault is that, hillbilly?

R64: Has advanced degrees and figured Hillary was going to blow it well before the election. Sanders time as a candidate forced her to talk about issues and define herself, but it was still insufficient. R66: seems like the illiterate one. and a snob, on top of it. The Hillary fans I know have moved past trying to defend her--they know she fucked up.

Except she won, do give credit where credit is due

[quote] I referred to the argument Trump is now making over and over that he’s going to go after them because he says they’re going after him but really they’re going after you — his supporters.

[quote] “That’s exactly the way I feel,” Johnson said.

I’ve been borrowing a Deplorable phrase and throwing it back at these weak-willed, unpatriotic, wannabe fascists:

FUCK YOUR FEELINGS!

No one is going after them, unless they participated in the J6 Insurrection.

We're moving on from them. We're tired of their shit. We want to move forward as a nation, not backwards. The current president has asked, and asked, and asked for them to walk forward with us as there really is room for everyone.

That's not an "attack", we're just done waiting for them deal with their anger in an adult fashion and stop the tantrums.

I read this - this man is one of the dumbest people who ever lived. Truly.

What online "school" did you get your "advanced degrees" from, r67?

How is "Ted Johnson" and his 301k doing nowadays? Is he content from the blow up his idiocy wanted? He also claims to be a retired Lt. Colonel, so he may lose VA benefits.

The libs are getting owned, the courts are getting packed for decades to come, and the brown folk are being tortured. So I doubt Ted is losing much sleep over his financials, it's all worth it in his eyes.

All the money 💰 is being siphoned over to huge Government Military Contractors. Guess who he works for?

They’re not reducing government at all. They’re redirecting all government coffers to the extremely wealthy conglomerates and those suckling on their teats
