    Big time accost! ;)

    Maybe he should pound sand and kick rocks. I hear those are fun activities.

    So? He fucking tweeted it in the first place.
    That's like wearing a shirt with a swastika, and then throwing it away when people point it out. You don't wear that shit on accident.

    It sends a message, and those who needed to see and hear it, saw and heard it.

    It’s too late. The part is so clear and obvious, the man yells white power, and just to make sure it was heard, an anti-protester says you hear that, he said white power. It was so obvious and blatant there are only three options left:
    1) Trump is purposefully retweeting his supporters saying “White Power”
    2) Trump is so tremendously inept and incompetent to such a degree that accidentally retweeted and commented on his supporters saying “White power”. Incompetence of this severity should be grounds of firing.
    3) Trump has a serious hearing or cognitive problem mixed with a love of sourdough bread, retweeting what he thought were a bunch of bakers extolling the virtues of white flour.

    Whoa... whoa... whoa....

    I only pointed out that Trump deleted that tweet to show how fucked it was.

    Also, according to the Presidential Records Act that was passed after the Nixon tape deleting BS, Trump legally can not delete tweets while he is President.

    What's funny is, he could totally retweet some white racist man yelling "white power" and his base wouldn't be phased one bit.


    Hold on, I'm being handed a note.

    (reads note)

    Wait, that's EXACTLY what he did and EXACTLY what happened?

    I give up.

    I noticed none of his supporters on here have commented on this. Does he speak for you? Did you also tweet this and then delete it? Does this president share the same core values as you? Wonder who they will be voting for this fall?

    The issue you have is there is like 1 maybe 2 Trump Supporters who still post here. You may have a few conservatives, who may or may not vote for Trump and some moderates here and there. If you really are interested in what someone who actually supports Trump thinks about these things. this isn't a place your going to find it, and calling out the 1 or 2 who do support Trump for not commenting on everything Trump does seems kinda silly.

    Sorry, I just get a kick out of these posts on s2, “Trump Supporters why arent you commenting!!!” - Who do you really want to hear from?

    It may be stupid, childish, or petty, (like Trump), but I'd disagree, to the sense that, I think calling out his supporters with his inane shit is appropriate, and important. Hey, do you ACTUALLY support this sort of behavior? Is this the guy you want? I think if you're stupid enough to still actively support him, you should answer to the heinous shit that he does. I know that they WON'T give a response. But they should be called on it at every turn. "Hey dickwad, they guy you like supports X, still a yes for you?" Hey dumbshit, professor cheeto shit on Y, still humping him?" "Hey nimrod, tweedle dumb diddled tweedle dee, still drinking the koolaid?" Call out the bigots, the racists, the misogynists and let them get front and center so we see them for who they are. Just my 3 cents

    If you may vote for Trump, you may be a Trump supporter.

    That's just it, people are so in tune to things now days that someone captures a screen shots almost as soon as it is posted so hard to delete it without someone alrteady seeing it and impossible to deny (at least truthfully)

    No, voting for someone does not mean you "support them". That's a fallacy. There are a lot of reasons why someone might for someone. Like in 2016 people may have voted for Trump because they didn't want Hillary. There is probably the opposite of that too.

    My anecdotal experience is that most people in America vote not because they really want someone to win, but because they represent the right color (red or blue), or they really don't want the other color to win. Sure there are "supporters" of someone who will take their side no matter what but I'd guess those are fewer than you think.

    What did you actually disagree with?
    I didn't say you couldn't call out whoever you wanted. I said there really is almost no representation of "Trump" supporters here. I don't think you're going to get much of a conversation on s2 about Trump from a real Trump supporter, cause there are very few that exist.
