(VANITY) Who is not a Never-Trumper NOR an Ever-Trumper?

ME | 1/8/21 | me

[the OlLine Rebel]

Just a general survey. Who considers themselves certainly not against Trump (per se), but not all-in for everything Trump does (per se)?

[the OlLine Rebel]

I'm sure I'll have my head handed to me for this.

But I'd like to know of those who are just solid conservatives, who won't abandon Trump in the face of liberals, but aren't bound by everything he says or does, either.

Really it'd be good to have a discussion about all that's transpired and what is right and wrong. I already set out a few points the other day, but I'm sure I could go on with more.

[JoSixChip]

Are you stupid or something?

[duckman]

Totally pissed with all things political for now.

[SoCal Pubbie]

I like to say that I’m not a Trump fan, but I’m a Trump supporter. I don’t agree with everything he says or does, but he’s been the best we’ve had at actually trying to make things better. I’ll criticize him when I disagree but won’t throw him to the wolves either.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

In for a penny, in for a pound.

[Reno89519]

Our views, what are important to us does not live or die with President Trump. He blew it, accept it. I support Trump but it is time to move on.

[nevergore]

Trump is not what is considered a traditional conservative...

He is more of a populist with conservative ideals.....

So I think your polling question is flawed...

[battletank]

Dead skunks are found in the middle of the road.

[Durbin]

I absolutely can’t stand politicians. That is why I support Trump. I don’t care what he says, I don’t even listen to what he says. He’s not a politician, he’s a citizen, and that’s what I support.

[the OlLine Rebel]

You’re proving my point about EverTrumpers.

Don’t be so beholden to one man.

[cincinnati65]

I'm not in either camp, so to speak. I'm open to the possibility that perhaps I've misjudged Trump, and that he may be having some Svengali-like sway over conservatives.

That said, I'm much closer to an "Ever Trump", than a "Never Trump", because generally, he embodies and sought to restore the principles on which this country was founded, and restore American exceptionalism and greatness.

Without clear and convincing evidence of actual criminal wrongdoing or evidence demonstrating that he is not a man of these convictions, I will be supportive of President Trump in the future.

[setter]

I love Trump, voted for him but he says stuff that make cringe at times...cringe way too often.

[the OlLine Rebel]

So you’re stuck on a man rather than ideology.

I am FAR from middle of the road.

Have an actual discussion, and stop being like the BLM insincere fakirs telling us how they just WANT to have a discussion. But really they just yell over everyone.

[dfwgator]

What alternative is there to Trump right now?

[Herodes]

Please name one politician...ever...that you agreed with 100% of the time.

You can’t. Impossible.

[RummyChick]

i will go with your statement but with a few changes

I am a trump fan even though constantly called a never trumper
i support him
i dont agree with everything things he says or does but generally cant voice it because of the crazy attacks here

and I wont throw him to the wolves

I am glad he came along and wish him the best

oh hey..and for all those that trashed me over Powell and Wood...ahem....

[the OlLine Rebel]

I think you have it.

I definitely disagree with how he handles things, but I despise liberals accusing him of everything under the sun. Such as the latest - incitement to riot. I listened to the man. He did NOT even use any WORDS that sounded like insurrection, much less tone.

[7thson]

I'm a Trump supporter (which I guess makes me a domestic terrorist) but did not start off as one. It was during the last month of the 2016 campaign that I switched over to him after listening to one of his rallys. AdnI mean listen. I laid down and listened, not watched and listened. However, I do question some of his actions over the past 4 years.

It became apparent early on that nearly everyone he appointed to some post or another was against him. I thought being an intelligent man, he would have appointed more people to that were loyal to him and the Constitution. Sessions, Barr, Mathis, some of his Cabinet.

Other than that, I basically agreed with all his actions during his administration.

[cincinnati65]

Precisely. No one else is espousing traditional American values, certainly not on the left. Even the “right” is suspect. There are some good men and women in Congress that attempted to stand on principle and do the right thing, but that group is definitely in the minority now.

[buckalfa]

One can support the agenda without worshiping the man. Yet I realize that without the President’s particular personality attributes, the agenda never could have been articulated and brought to some degree of fruition.
