I’m Not Angry At Donald Trump, I’m Angry At His Supporters

I’ve noticed that most of my readers are not Trump fans, and I appreciate that. I love you guys for being reasonable and not falling for this glorified circus elephant. But Trump fans will come out of the woodwork because of my latest piece here, and when they do I want you to notice something: they claim they like Trump’s “blunt and unapologetic” approach, but watch how they react when that blunt and unapologetic strategy is turned against them. Watch what happens when someone is blunt and unapologetic towards them.

This is the first sign that Trump’s legion of admirers aren’t sincere. They say they like his tone — which is already a terrible, horrible, ridiculous reason to elect someone president — but it turns out that they just like his tone when he’s regurgitating their own shallow sentiments.

Trump, of course, is the same way. He claims to be the bold, politically incorrect guy, but he cries like a scrawny bully when anyone punches him back. He’s weak. And that’s what led to the now infamous incident a few days ago, where he attacked Megyn Kelly for asking him tough questions, insinuating that she was on her period.

Matt Walsh go back to your sand box and shut the F up.

I would ask Mr. Walsh, and you, Theo... instead of blaming people for resonating how Trump is calling out hypocrisy and RINO soft-on-borders liberalism, the GOPe with its Bush dynasty obsession — why not LEARN WHY Trump is resonating? Maybe Republican leadership needs to WAKE UP, TELL THE TRUTH, and FIGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY?

Trump is not my first choice... Ted Cruz is. Unsurprisingly, Cruz gets what Trump is saying about how the GOPe has thrown us all under the bus. If you stop a minute and realize why you’re afraid of Trump upsetting the status quo, I think you should consider that the status quo in the GOP is heading toward Uniparty and a leftward destruction of the country.

WHOO HOO! A Chicago-based comedian writes a blog! WHOOO HOOOOOO!

[mrmeyer]

intelligent adults who have chosen to make a mockery of the political process

Career politicians have done a pretty good job of that long before Trump decided to throw his hat into the ring.

This must be a joke.

“Another nobody trying to get attention by writing about a somebody.”

Exactly!

Another GD pajama boy...he doesn’t get it because his nuts haven’t dropped yet...More than likely the scariest thing he as ever faced was burning the roof of mouth with 7-11 nacho cheese.

What we like about what Trump is saying so far, he is the only one saying it!

We don’t like America being on the receiving end of the prison rape that is happening to it right now — That pisses us off!

If you don’t like Matt, who cares — FO pajama boy!

GO TRUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Trapped Behind Enemy Lines]

Sorry that doesn’t work for me.

I hold Trump accountable to the same standards I would hold any other person seeking elective office.

I see in Trump another Ross Perot, not another Ronald Reagan.

[freedomfiter2]

Because unlike actual RINOs, Trump identifies the enemies of America. Too many “conservatives” make excuses for them.

[MNDude]

Really? This is a test....

I CHALLENGE The Donald! I double challenge him!

[Little Ray]

I am not angry at Trump or his supporters.
I am angry at the GOP for not having the guts to address the issues or stand up to the Media and the Perpetually Offended.

He’s another intellectual and experientally-deprived pipsqueak who thinks he may one day be invited to write for Salon, or appear somewhere on TV described as a “Democratic Strategist”.

[Lurkinanloomin]

I’m not angry at Donald Trump, I’m angry at the Uniparty that refuses to secure the border and enforce the laws.

[freedomfiter2]

No, I believe he’s referring to the Bush, McCain, Romney crowd.

[Trapped Behind Enemy Lines]

Trump writes checks to the enemies of America including Nancy Pelousy, Harry Reid, and his buddies the Clintons.

He is still in bed with the Clintons. GET A CLUE!

[KGeorge]

Maybe you should get your eyes checked. just sayin’

[dfwgator]

If these are the kinds of people Trump pisses off, then Trump must be doing the right thing.

These are conscious, intelligent adults who have chosen to make a mockery of the political process and play games with my country’s future. For this reason, because I love my country and I take it’s fate seriously, I am angry at these people. They know better than this. They are better than this. And it pains me that these reckless, bored people are coming, presumably, from the conservative ranks. I would have liked to think that conservatives wouldn’t fall for the Obama Cult of Personality shtick, but they have. And it’s depressing to behold.

You have it wrong.

These intelligent people are sick to death of Republicans not standing up and fighting. Perot or Donald come in all brash and arrogant with quick comebacks and they think they finally have a fighter willing to stand up to the horrible media and politicians and fix this country. They are running on emotion at this point just like with Perot not really caring to take the time to figure out that Trump or even Perot are not conservatives....there is someone giving the establishment hell at the moment and winning and they are cheering(maybe the establishment are the ones who needs to think that one through).

They are not reckless and bored they are sick to death of the Washington elite and the media and have jumped on a bandwagon without really looking at the candidate. Not malicious or bored, just mad and not well thought out.

[freedomfiter2]

Just because they won’t pay is no reason to not send them the bill.
