I detest Trump, but a ‘redneck’ fixed my Prius with zip ties

The problem is this Regressive crow and her family have relocated to North Carolina and are turning the state blue. Just as they have done in Virginia, Vermont, and other locations, these Leftist knotheads foul their blue home states with taxes, regulations, illegals, and crime, and then move to red states to repeat the process. Go back with your rotten family and live in the sh*thole you created.

This is turning into a very good thread.

Not just wrong, but evil. Therefore saying or doing anything against Evil is justified in her mind.

I’m glad my parents were a lot like your parents.

Me, I finished my degree just as the the Obama recession was in full swing. I simply could not get a job or even a combination of jobs that would let me support myself. I was considering military service, but disabilities disqualified me from that.

So while I was job hunting, what both my parents and step-grandparents did was a combination of compassion and butt-kicking. They were willing to help bridge the gap for a while, but only if I showed them pay stubs showing that I was working or looking for work.

And now here I am, fully employed at a full-time job AND self-supporting, even with the start of a proper retirement fund. Life is good.

This story is amusing, but also significant.

This was her epiphany. She heard the brass gong being struck by reality. This lady openly admits this one moment of kindness by the man has caused her to rethink her manner of resistance. Most libs I know find it very difficult to admit that they could be on the wrong tract. Small steps to enlightenment.

..... yes

All I could think of when reading her account was that, just like the self-described redneck repairing her broken down Prius, President Trump is managing to fix our broken down country, in spite of the Democrats’ hate. -------------

Great point!

Unsaid but strongly suggested is that she would not reciprocate the spontaneous generosity or basic civility.

I think you are correct.

I live in a fairly leftist environment and so deal with them on a daily basis.

I'm glad that I don't have to deal with many of them on a regular basis any more.

Lady, you’ll have seven more years not wanting to wake up. If this is too much for you, there’s a wonder drug called “Fentanyl” that can totally eliminate your Trump Anxiety.

“...lefties are unable to process new information that is contrary to their paradigms...they simply freeze mentally...”
___

Reminds me of my mainframe programming days. Programs that encountered certain processing situations would either ABEND (ABnormally END) or get into a failed never-ending loop that resulted in the computer getting stuck, repeating the same actions over and over. I’d have to put the lefties in the latter situation, but the former would be preferable.

Zip ties and duct tape are far more productive than pussy hats and #metoo tweets.

She still doesn’t get.

She, and her liberal puke friends would never stop to help the redneck that helped her.

Liberals don’t understand people that will help others that need it, not just those that they agree with. Liberals won’t even stop to help other liberals.

She’s basically mentally ill.

I know several Americans who fit her Trump derangement symptoms.

MANY Americans believe critical thought is to listen to the scum on TV and believe what you are told to believe. The question becomes WHO DO YOU LISTEN TO?

A typical liberal loves CNN.

A typical conservative is more likely to listen to the FOX babes read the "news." Whether it be the JFK assassination or Trump peeing on a bed, many Americans believe what they are told to believe.

In truth, the correct answers are right in front of us. JFK was killed by a powerful conspiracy and President Trump was lied about by a Hillary Clinton paid for scam that was then used by the gubermint to go after the President.

I think so too, IMHO it is on the same level as “nigger”. She display her hate and ignorance by using that term to describe her benefactor. OTOH, he, of course, has free rein to do what he will with that term. That is the way these things work.

The woman is confused. Her story is more about Jesus than Trump.

“As I drove home, I felt the full extent to which Trump has actually diminished my own desire to be kind.”

President Trump didn’t do that, lady.

Stop blaming other people for things you’ve done.

Not going to click on the story, but the excerpt makes me think this is satire.
