Tell Me You’re a Trump Voter, and I Instantly Know 7 Things About You
Bycpowell Posted on April 23, 2017

While I don’t always like to make sweeping assumptions about people based on a small collection of evidence, if you are a Donald Trump supporter, there are certain things I already know about you. Here are 7 of those things (HUGE shout out to Daily Kos for putting together this amazing list!):



1. YOU WANT TO BE RULED, NOT GOVERNED:
The single trait that predicts the Trump supporter isn’t related to race, income, or education. A University of Massachusetts researches found that the top predictor of whether a voter supports Trump is a tendency to lean toward authoritarianism:

Authoritarians obey. They rally to and follow strong leaders. And they respond aggressively to outsiders, especially when they feel threatened. From pledging to “make America great again” by building a wall on the border to promising to close mosques and ban Muslims from visiting the United States, Trump is playing directly to authoritarian inclinations.

2. YOU HAVE NO CLASS:
Donald Trump and his supporters will try to tell you that he didn’t mock a disabled person, even though we all saw him do it.

Also, remember the time he mocked Senator McCain for being a POW, saying “I like people who weren’t captured”?

Remember the time he made a mockery of our military by insulting/disrespecting the parents of a fallen soldier?

Remember when Donald Trump body-shamed a beauty pageant winner?

Remember when Donald Trump was accused (not charged, yet) of statutory rape, not mention the creepy and disgusting things he said about his own daughter?

There are literally thousands of statements and actions that we could mention here. Keep defending them, please, and prove my point about your lack of class.

3. YOU ARE NOT SOMEONE I WOULD TRUST TO DO BUSINESS WITH:
With Trump’s long history of shady business deals, his refusal to release his tax returns, his constant stream of blatant lies and his habit of not paying people who did work for him, I am assuming by your giving him a pass on this, that you also would behave this way in your business dealings.

4. YOU’RE EITHER A RACIST OR AN ENABLER OF RACISTS:
Trump’s campaign has been built almost entirely on racist rhetoric and hypothetical policy. Trump led the charge on the ridiculous birther movement, he wants to keep Mexicans out by forcing them to pay for a massive border wall, he believes all Muslims are either terrorists or have ties to terrorists, he ridicules “black lives matter,” he encourages voter intimidation and already-proven-ineffective laws like “stop and frisk” that unfairly and overwhelmingly target African Americans and Latinos. There is literally NO WAY you can support Donald Trump and at least not be ok with someone else’ racism, though, it’s far more likely you have some of these racist tendencies on your own.

5. YOU HAVE ISSUES WITH WOMEN:
Trump regularly says vulgar and sexist things about women. He strangely believes that Bill Clinton’s affairs somehow disqualify Hillary Clinton from the presidency, and yet, has been three times and had numerous (and proudly admitted) affairs himself. As we already mentioned, Trump recently body-shamed a pageant winner. He has routinely called women, including his campaign opponent, dogs and pigs. He once claimed Hillary Clinton and Carly Fiorina were both “too ugly” to be president. D0nald Trump has consistently said strange and creepy things about his daughter’s appearance, giving off the vibe that he is attracted to her.

Donald Trump has major issues with women. Again, either you do too, or you have no problem giving Trump a free pass on being a disgusting, sexist creep.

6. YOU AREN’T QUITE AS “CHRISTIAN” AS YOU CLAIM TO BE:
Christian author Philip Yancey recently said:
I am staggered that so many conservative or evangelical Christians would see a man who is a bully, who made his money by casinos, who has had several wives and several affairs, that they would somehow paint him as a hero, as someone that we could stand behind.

From Trump making a mockery of forgiveness and the Christian practice of Holy Communion (“I receive forgiveness when I get my little cracker and the juice”), to his ridiculous claim of his favorite bible verse being from “Two Corinthians,” Donald Trump’s anti-Christian personal behavior, proposed political policies and unethical business practices prove his claims of having a deep personal Christian faith is nothing more than a pandering for votes.

7. YOU ARE ANTI-CONSTITUTION:
For someone who consistently claims Barack Obama has assaulted our constitutional rights, Donald Trump seems to be set to launch an assault on the constitution the likes of which we have never seen. He has already indicated any journalists that oppose him will be silenced and oppressed. He has urged congress to consider shutting down mosques. He wants to end birthright citizenship. The list goes on.



If you don’t want to be considered a racist, sexist, whatever, then maybe you should consider no longer supporting a man who absolutely, without question, is all of these things. You’re better than this, America.

Yup, sounds a lot like both me and my wife.

We both voted for Trump. Neither of us wanted to but felt there were no other viable options. I'm more of a Libertarian than the lovely Mrs_Bob. She is a fiscal conservative, but within the GOP's spectrum of fiscal conservatism and semi-socially liberal.

We both are in favor of the Constitution. We both favor liberty over a strong central government.

We both have women's issues: I like women; she knows they are catty bitches!

As for being Christians, one of the things that I think defines us is the fact that we know we are not perfect and would simply like to be better. So yeah, not as good as we hope to someday become.

Racists? No. Realists. We give everyone a chance to screw up before we distrust them.

Not trustworthy in business? The peers we had when we were in business would be good witnesses to disprove that point.

No class? OK.

Seems to me the author is just bitter.

:yum: Yup, in the eyes of the goofy liberals I am all of the above.

If they could only see, in my eyes, what I think of them. :biggrin:

Ok, I fit. I agree 100% on one point. It's me.
Hillary and Carly ARE too ugly to be President. It was bad enough we had to pictures of Mooshell. These two would cause me to go poke my eyes out. Can imagine either one of them, every day, on every channel.
Sorry.

And the gracious-loser Hillary supporters are behaving in completely honorable ways ...

Such as refusing to admit he won an honest election, forming "Resist Trump" groups, vociferously claiming he is "Not My President", and calling him and his supporters fascists* while at the same time using fascist thug street violence against them. And this clown has the audacity to cast aspersions at us? The unmitigated gall of these cretins is nearly inconceivable!


*I had the chance to challenge a couple of these "you're a fascist" twerps earlier this week. As I suspected, they could not define either "fascist" or its root "fascism"; to them it was a blanket term for anyone who supports the sexist, racist, misogynistic, homophobic, Islamophobic (etc. and ad nauseum) Donald Trump. It never occurred to them that it could have a real definition! When informed that it was an actual political philosophy they immediately assumed it was some sort of communism. And at least one of these little children (college students) had actively supported Bernie!
