Not everywhere...plenty of pro trump bumper stickers and what not around here. Your perception is relative to your experience or location. Of course Texas has had to deal with some major cartel issues for a while now...I'm guessing that earned Trump a vote or two.Go Beavers said:
I think they're the ones who, before the election said they were conservative, and now in a group setting if someone comments on how ridiculous trump is, they stay quiet and try not to make eye contact with anyone.mace1229 said:
But then again you wouldn't, right? Because they are too coward to admit it.what dreams said:
Yeah, I don't know any coward Trump voters either. They throw it in my face every time we talk -- which is why I'm sick of the real cowards with the "I'm so afraid tell people." Give me a break.ledvedderman said:Maybe it's because I live in rural southern Illinois, but the Trump voters here not only own their vote, they own the shit out of it. It's like a badge of honor.

I believe I quoted your comment about these mysterious people who are afraid to admit it . . . You must know some of them, or be one of them, if you are privy to this phenomenon.mace1229 said:

The anti-trump crowd is intolerant, occasionally mentally unwell, and when agitated capable of real violence. No sensible Trump supporter should advertise his or her support for him. They should quietly go about their business and only show support where necessary. It is not worth the ugliness, the boycotts, nor the bloodshed.

I thought it was clear I was talking about my own experience. What I also see is that rural trump voters tend to be the most vocal. It's too bad to see the low income trump voter be excited when they're the one who will be taking the biggest hit.PJPOWER said:

Sounds remarkably similar to what we said about the Tea Party when they erupted after Obama's election. We quietly went about our business. Look at what that got us. Nope. No more. We are not going quietly about anything, and we are taking our lessons from the Tea Party playbook. You ain't seen nothing yet.BS44325 said:The anti-trump crowd is intolerant, occasionally mentally unwell, and when agitated capable of real violence.

He kind of resembles Matt Groening to me.ledvedderman said:When I read that article on Bannon, I felt like he was Lester Bangs from Almost Famous. That's just what it seemed to me. Coincidentally, that role was played by Bannon's doppelgänger, Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

Right. And I said we are seeing a repeat of what happened in 2009, except the tables are now turned. It would suit our purpose just fine if the Trump folks go quietly about their business. While you try to do your business, we are going to make it a living hell.BS44325 said:

most suburbanites (my crowd) that voted for Trump are ashamed as hell.what dreams said:Quoted from many pages back "People are afraid to admit in the work place or on social media that they voted for Trump, and not because they regret it, it is because of the stigma the left has placed on you if you don't agree with them. People can't support Trump at work because of the labels the left will give them-that is a fantastic fear tactic-fear of being labeled horrible names."
I keep reading people say this kind of thing, and I call bullshit. If someone doesn't have the courage of his or her convictions in this country to say, "I voted for Trump," then that's on them. Don't give me this crap about how "the left" is going to call you "a horrible name" if you voted for Trump. Do you know how much crap I've endured for 25 years for openly supporting Hillary Clinton for just being a basic human being, never mind a presidential candidate? Not once did I ever cower. If you can't admit you've voted for Trump, then you are a . . . wait for it . . . PINK HAT.0 -
Since taking office, President Trump has looked to fulfill some of his campaign promises by using executive orders. Here are the orders he has signed so far:
•Multi-pronged orders on border security and immigration enforcement including: the authorization of a U.S.-Mexico border wall; the stripping of federal grant money to sanctuary cities; hiring 5,000 more Border Patrol agents; ending “catch-and-release” policies for illegal immigrants; and reinstating local and state immigration enforcement partnerships.
•Two orders reviving the Keystone XL pipeline and Dakota Access piplines. He also signed three other related orders that would: expedite the environmental permitting process for infrastructure projects related to the pipelines; direct the Commerce Department to streamline the manufacturing permitting process; and give the Commerce Department 180 days to maximize the use of U.S. steel in the pipeline.
•An order to reinstate the so-called "Mexico City Policy" – a ban on federal funds to international groups that perform abortions or lobby to legalize or promote abortion. The policy was instituted in 1984 by President Reagan, but has gone into and out of effect depending on the party in power in the White House.
•He signed a notice that the U.S. will begin withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal. Trump called the order "a great thing for the American worker."
•An order imposing a hiring freeze for some federal government workers as a way to shrink the size of government. This excludes the military, as Trump noted at the signing.
•An order that directs federal agencies to ease the “regulatory burdens” of ObamaCare. It orders agencies to “waive, defer, grant exemptions from, or delay the implementation of any provision or requirement” of ObamaCare that imposes a “fiscal burden on any State or a cost, fee, tax, penalty, or regulatory burden on individuals, families, healthcare providers, health insurers, patients, recipients of healthcare services, purchasers of health insurance, or makers of medical devices, products, or medications.”
