Something that negatively affects them and they will change just enough to make it not affect them.

Nearly a quarter of Republicans say classified docs charges make them more likely to support Trump: poll ( thehill.com )

More than 20 percent of Republicans surveyed said certain criminal charges against former President Trump have made them more likely to support him in the 2024 election, according to a new Ipsos poll released Thursday.

Definitely not a cult /s

There is likely nothing in this reality capable of swaying these 20+% of folks from not voting for their fascist leader. This “more likely” garbage is just click-bait for the for-profit media.

I mean they’ll say anything, they are psychopathic shells of human beings

The other Republicans are either going to maintain their support, or will be less likely to support.

Not just the worst people but failed human beings. They lack any redeeming qualities to make them near human. There is no saving them, no redemption, no undoing what damage they have willingly accepted to themselves.

Meh... anyone who feels that way was already fully supporting him anyway.

HandsHurtLoL ,

Sincere question: does this statistic represent the sentiment that they A. like that Trump is a security risk to national interests or B. see this indictment as further proof that he's actually the messiah who was close to unearthing JKF Jr and QAnon stuff, so clearly he was thisclose to draining the swamp?

I've said it before and I'll say it again: what is the role that Oppositional Defiance Disorder is playing into such a huge number of people??

Iunnrais ,

They believe the trial is nothing but his political enemies, the dems/libs/antifa/blm/Mexicans/commies/satanists/whatever, trying to drag him down for bullshit reasons, so they just have to support him harder.

Oppositional Defiance Disorder

Oooo I love learning a term that perfectly describes something I previously couldn’t!!

ETA: Oh my.

Oppositional defiant disorder (Also called: ODD).
A disorder in a child marked by defiant and disobedient behavior to authority figures.

Bruh, “in a child”? These are full grown adults!

Some children with ODD outgrow the condition by age eight or nine. But about half of them continue to experience symptoms of ODD through adulthood. People with ODD report feeling angry all of the time, and about 40 percent of them become progressively worse and develop antisocial personality disorder.

Wow. WOW. So many things in the world just made so much more sense to me in the last 5 minutes. Holy shit.

I used to live in a house with a lot of drifters. There was a young woman (24 years old) that I roomed with who, when she would go out for the day and I would say, "Have a great day!" she would snarl back, "Don't tell me what to do!"

Like 5% ironic but 95% sincere. It was wild.

Until they prove otherwise, I will not view them as worthy of any respect or recognition that I would give a normal person.

I used to have sympathy and compassion for them. I truly did. Their response to everything throughout the pandemic, their vitriolic attacks towards anything and anyone that was working to provide support, sympathy, empathy, compassion, or just improving the lives of those less fortunate have erased any sense of good will that I may have had for them.

If dehumanizing them dehumanizes me, then I accept it. They don’t deserve anyone’s sympathy or respect. The new only thing they deserve is contempt and the consequences of their actions.

I just found out that not all of my Reddit comments had been deleted despite my profile page showing otherwise. ( kbin.social )

TL;DR: even if your delete script confirms a full wipe and your Reddit profile page shows zero comment, there may still be comments left over (that you can find through a search engine and delete manually on Reddit)....

Exclusive: Special counsel prosecutors question witnesses about chaotic Oval Office meeting after Trump lost the 2020 election | CNN Politics ( edition.cnn.com )

Special counsel Jack Smith’s team has signaled a continued interest in a chaotic Oval Office meeting that took place in the final days of the Trump administration, during which the former president considered some of the most desperate proposals to keep him in power over objections from his White House counsel.

I wish Biden did just the one term. I voted for him but I just think he is too old to make another 5 years. BUT I will certainly vote for him again.

Trump is a criminal and he is too old also, and a liar, and a bigot, and stupid.
