“He’s a family man,” Jerry Bolduc says about Trump. “He believes in God and in America first. And that’s what I’m all about.”
It's like his fans don't actually know the first thing about him...

or the second, third, fourth and fifth things.
The only thing that's true about Trump being a family man, is he wants to fuck his daughter. Which, to be honest, is rather biblical.
I heard an interview the other day where an Iowan trump supporter claimed that Trump was respected by the rest of the world. lol.
As someone from Europe, he's absolutely not lmao
They think fear is respect or they are pointing to the fascist minority factions within those countries as their source of information. Let's call it The Fascist International.
Its so funny how he refuses to name his favorite/any known to him Bible verses. Refuses to be pinned down aha
The funniest part is that he has had years to just memorize a few lines to make them happy and these people register so little to him that he can’t even bother to do the bare minimum.
Except "woman, man, person, TV, camera" isn't in the Bible, so he was all out of space to learn anything else.
LOL. There was so much batshit crazy shit during those four years I forgot about this one. Also just remembered the attempt at using a sharpie to redirect a hurricane.

Everything that seems stupid or outrageous about Trump just clicks into place one you've accepted the mandatory foundational bullshit. These people didn't reason themselves into their position, they were looking for something to believe together. It's just too bad all that faith is wasted on this asshole.
All faith is wasted. Believing in something without evidence is at best naive and at worst stupid.

They live in some sort of alternate reality where they are blind to facts, I just don't understand how they arrive at the conclusions they make. It just doesn't make any sense what so ever. It is going to be studied for generations as a warning for the rest of us.
The worst part is, you can't tell them different. "Family man? You know he cheated on his pregnant wife with a porn star, right?"
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/commentary-why-evangelicals-stick-with-trump-despite-stormy-daniels/
"Perhaps most astonishing, a recent YouGov poll found only half of Trump voters said Trump cheating on his wife with Stormy Daniels would be immoral, even if it did happen. After everything they've learned about him, 56 percent of Trump supporters believe the phrase "moral leader" describes the president either "very well" or "extremely well." "
I like the optimism, that we have generations left.
His supporters don't even know what they're about. They can't think on their own because they've been taught to follow without question.
They can't say "I like abusing women and minorities and wish it was a more acceptable hobby so I'm voting Trump" -- the Unite the Right rally showed them that plausible deniability builds platforms and going mask off takes them away.
But they can say clearly bullshit things like this and everyone does them the favor of pretending they actually mean it.
If someone doesn't politely play along, they've been coached at how to manipulate their way out of it with by saying things like "the left just calls everyone they don't like a Nazi".
No, no, Trump really is a family man...in exactly the same way as Tony Soprano. He is all about HIS family, but definitely not yours!

It's ridiculous he was there in the first place.
And it's about to happen again because ideologically "pure" leftists constantly fall for right-wing propaganda and fail to understand the real world impacts of harm reduction.
Isn't life in the 21st century just so fucking grand?

we have to follow the laws of our land
Yeah, but you don't.
He quickly doubled down on his 2020 election lies: “They don’t investigate the people that cheated in the election. They investigate the people that understand they cheated and go after them. But they don’t investigate the people who cheated like hell. We have to have fair and free elections.”
wut
Yeah, the law and the Constitution. So ridiculous to have it applied to special snowflakes like Orange Jesus, too.

Traitor swine needs to be locked the fuck up.
“Historic Iowa victory”. He won 51% out of some 110k votes. In 2020 he won 98% of far more votes there.
Yeah he won, but it’s not the anointment it’s being reported as being. The result suggest many GOP voters sitting out or preferring options.
That said they WILL coalesce around the nominee because they always do while the left will still be cats in a bag.
Ok, sure man, whatever you say, old man screaming at the cloud.
I thought he said it was a dump
Well, of course. There were no white leather couches, no velvet Elvis paintings. The toilets weren't even made of gold. Absolutely no culture of any kind.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Fresh off a historic victory in the Iowa caucuses, former President Donald Trump traveled to New Hampshire and complained to his supporters that he had to leave the White House after losing the 2020 election.
Fans had lined up for hours outside in the snow for a chance to see the presumptive Republican nominee in person — excited over his Iowa win, appearing confident he will once again be president.
Dozens of Trump supporters stood outside the venue for hours Tuesday as heavy snow fell, leaving thick ice on attendees’ cars.
During his speech, Trump expressed confidence he’ll win New Hampshire next week, but he called on his supporters to help him build a significant margin of victory.
“Nikki Haley is counting on the Democrats and liberals to infiltrate your Republican primary,” Trump warned during his speech Tuesday, adding it is “artificially boosting her numbers here.”
The pro-Trump super PAC Make America Great Again Inc. has been running ads in New Hampshire attacking Haley on immigration, using language similar to the Adolf Hitler-like “poisoning the blood” rhetoric Trump has employed on the campaign trail.
