Trump also clearly shares Putin's view that only major powers are truly sovereign. This became quite evident how he treats Panama, Greenland, Ukraine or even Canada, calling it "prime estate".
I truly hope the real conservatives like you can take the Republican party back!
Sometimes answer can be simple as feeling of kinship. Trump has easier time identifying with other authoritarian leaders. Humans are emotional creatures first: we tend to rationalize decisions made by emotions usually never realizing it.
Self reflection ain't Trumps strong suit for sure.
Easter is rapidly approaching. Perhaps there are many US Senators and Representatives who think they can wash the blood off their hands like Pontius Pilot. It didn’t work for him. It won’t work for anyone who doesn’t stand up against Trump’s intelligence embargo in defense of Ukrainian civilians.
I'm please to announce my first book "The Diplomatic History of the United States; Form 8:31 and to 1:17 pm on 7th of March, 2025"
In convenient 1000 page 3 volume set.
And don't spoil the ending, covered in supplement 4th volume "Trump announces 20 billion dollar F-35 sale to Russia"
Sometimes I wonder if you did any research on Trump at all in 2016, like this video is framed that you are realizing who Trump is now. He’s 78 years old… the history is all there. Conservatives gave up morality (their strength over liberals) for Trump. Now they wonder why their party is compromised.
People did not take trump seriously. Also a lot of people thought they can control him. Others thought character does not matter that much in a president, ignoring it was not about electing a president but enabling a king. I hope they wake up now.
I can admit I did not vote in 2016 - I was 25 at the time and had not yet voted. Have not missed an election since. And I was always against Trump. But friends said I had “TDS”. Difficult time for me as a Ukrainian American. “The boy who cried wolf” accusations, implying Trump is indeed a wolf…
Yeah man, totally get it. Humans are really bad at risk management and much less rational than we think we are.
What can help in those discussion is to turn it around and say: ok fine, I am open to change MY mind. Please explain to me how there is nothing to worry with trump.
