A Liberal Friend Asks: “Aren’t You Tired of Apologizing for Trump?”
Canada Free Press ^ | 08/15/16 | Greg Penglis

No conservative, constitutionalist, libertarian, or conservative independent, believes a thing the Leftist media says or does

It started as a Facebook post, and grew from there into a whole article. I really wanted to answer the question for those who had no idea what is happening this election. The media is full of all the reasons not to vote for Trump, yet confounding that are millions of people who support him and don’t believe the polls, or much of anything else that is said about Trump. So my friend assumed that we who support Trump are merely apologists, and aren’t we tired of defending all the stupid things he says everyday. Disagreeing with the whole premiss, I started to answer. What follows is that answer:

First you should be addressing Trump supporters, not Trump apologists. No supporter thinks of themselves as an apologist. We feel the Left has to apologize for their mistreatment of Trump. And as someone who thought Ted Cruz was the best candidate, because he knows the Constitution better than any candidate, and knows how to operate within the limitations, contrary to the current White House occupant, I still have come to support Trump for a variety of reasons. Let me try to explain why Trump is so popular. If you look at Trump through the usual Leftist media slander of racist, sexist, misogynist, nazi, xenophobe, then you won’t understand a thing I am saying. You have to understand Trump as a Trump supporter does. And we understand that all those labels only came out when Trump declared for President, so they are completely irrelevant. We know those are just part of the demonization by the Leftist media to get Hillary elected and it’s all right out of the playbook. We’ve seen it all before.

No because I have never apologized for Trump and I don’t plan on starting. Go Trump!

Apologize for a man that tells the truth and punches the drive by media in the gut? Not in a million years.

If liberals weren’t so dishonest and shameless they would have tired of the Clintonistas long ago.

A quarter century of Bill and Hill blighting our national public life is quite enough, more than enough.

Go away, you charlatans!!

Tired of hearing all this tripe. First, DJT is the first and only person I can ever recall who ‘fights back’ at liberals. The crony RINOs always are eager to ‘reach across the aisle.’ Makes me want to puke. The libs never make any attempt to compromise on any issue that conservatives pose…that said, rail on, Mr. Trump, even though you’re as one ‘crying in the wilderness.’

Your friend is a MSM-media-addled, brainless sheep.

They set a narrative, with constant barrage of pre-planned headlines and talking points - and he swallows it.

I usually say, name three good things Hillary has done in 30 years in Washington.

Shuts down the conversation very quickly.

Apologizing for someone who is “real”? Why would I?

"So, when did you stop beating your wife?"

Typical leftist projection in play.

What did he say after he got back up and spit out his teeth?

I’m starting to tell liberals/progressives the reasons why their whole culture can’t damage Donald Trump or sway his supporters is because it is a total rejection of their whole liberal/progressive culture.

Of course no one need apologize for Donald Trump. He is the one candidate who has his priorities right.

Tell them to shove it. Make them apologize for supporting the most corrupt couple to darken American politics.
