To: Cincinatus' Wife

This is a real dilemma for Trump supporters. Since they believe in the leader principle (the idea that the leader is always right), they must now decide if he was right when he agreed with Bush, or is he right now that he’s assumed the Michael Moore/Cod Pink position. I know they’re a resilient bunch. I’ve seen them overcome major Trump-induced cognitive dissonance before. What they can do is begin by attacking Cincinatus’ Wife, then THE GUARDIAN, the RINOS, GOPe, Google for maintaining previous Trump statements, and anyone else with a living memory of Trump positions that contradict his now infallible positions.

“Since they believe in the leader principle (the idea that the leader is always right)”

I do not believe a leader is always right. This is a straw man argument that does not describe me nor, I suspect most Trump supporters.

Or we can disagree with your spin on the positions being pro Bush or pro code pink. It is you who are characterizing it as such based on snippets here or there that you cut and paste.

Ike Eisenhower ran and won on the promise of ending the Korean war and returning the boys home. Bob Dole declared Democrats start wars and are the war monger party not Republicans. I guess the GOP was code pinkish back then.

You have clearly shown no understanding of GOP history, history in general or politics in your numerous posts. So your views have no weight with me and I assume others.
