brianlux said:My original post was an observation and my comments about MAGAs were a generalization. I have not said anything about any individual here. Also note, there are exceptions to generalizations. If anyone has taken what I said here personally, that's an unfortunate misunderstanding on their part. Also, as far as I can tell, I have not broken any forum rules in what I've said here, but if anyone has an issue with what I posted, feel free to flag my post. I'm always willing to admit and correct an error.
Whelp, that just shows why I do not post on this site. Back to the shadows for another 6+ years.
Peace.

They seem either subdued, snarky/troll like, and often angry- not anger like the disappointment type anger we Harris voters feel, but just the usual mean bully style anger. Part of that, I suppose, is that's just how some people are normally. But my guess is that part of it is because I think deep down, MAGA fans know they have fucked up themselves (as well as everybody else)by electing the Felon into office. There's a lot being said about how the felon and his pals have made promises they cannot and don't intend to keep, and I think a lot of MAGAs know that. OOOPS, too late!For those of us who love democracy and freedom from tyranny, it's important to keep this point in the foreground and made recognizable because it's almost blatantly evident and those voters need to own it.Now, a few of you have suggested elsewhere that true MAGA fans will support the Felon no matter what. My guess is that, deep down, some of the die-hard MAGA will eventually figure out how badly they blew it electing 47. But what about the other republicans (and others even!) who voted for D. T. Will they regret doing so? Have they already?
Yes we are
I am happy that I no longer feel like I am the problem with this world for what I believe in by the outspoken extreme minority. I am American. I understand people have different views then me and I am OK with that. I stand for democracy and I do not feel the government should tell me what I can and cannot do.
Also, thank you for you for labeling me as a "troll", "a mean bully" and then tell me "I fucked up." It’s unfortunate there is so much hate in this world and you label me these things but please, look in the mirror, it has been sung, “if you hate something, don’t you do it to?”
You may seem less combative towards people if you let politics not consume your life.
Have an awesome day!
He says the govt is corrupt and is the deep state, then adds four key members to the cabinet that are clearly not even the most qualified and nowhere near the top of these respective fields.
Some of us believe education, food, justice, national defense are essential, which needs the government for protection, and America has been great because we excel in these areas. Others make a mockery of this, and that is exactly what 47 is doing with his cabinet, full stop.0 -

As for his cabinent, I feel he is putting people in the spots who will not be afraid to make change, but will have to wait and see.
Well, I already said it, Lerxst1992, I have not posted on the PF Forum in a topic since 2017. I am going to go back to the shadows again.
I have been an active member in the Ten Club since 1994, I love the band and feel this last album is ranked as one of the best.
Stay safe crew!!

I don't understand the hit-and-run comments that occasionally show up on these forums, nor why some people insist on talking about the person they are replying to instead of the subject at hand, nor (especially) why some people misquote others.

I doubt any Republicans would have started several threads and asked the moderators to close them because of hurt feelings if Kamala won.
Probably wouldn’t have canceled date night with the wife or asked for a conservative organization to donate that 2 for 20 Applebees money to either. 🤷🏻♂️Post edited by teskeinc on0 -
