Democrats do not care about the constitution or border.
Stop trying to be logical and hit them in the gut.
Here is what I say:
I am voting for Trump because he is the most honest candidate elected to the White House in many decades.
That horrifies Democrats who think everyone believes Trump is a serial liar....with tens of thousands of lies under his belt.
I tell them that no candidate has kept his campaign promises better than Trump. What he says is his policy. He will answer questions from anyone and tell them what he thinks.
You do not have to agree with everything, but at least you know what Trump supports and opposes.
Biden/Harris have already flip-flopped on fracking, the green new deal, taxes, and Biden actually said voters do not DESERVE to know if he supports packing the Supreme Court.
I will take honest Trump over flip-flopping concealer, Biden.
How ironic that liberals are aghast at Trump’s personality but are willing to vote for Biden the groper and Harris who is just plain fingernails on a chalkboard likeable.
Lost a few leftist pals about four years ago. Haven’t heard from them since.
That’s exactly what I do. I tell them that a president should be elected on their platform, what they stand for, and not on likability or what the media says about them. That’s a very difficult sell with liberals because they are driven by raw emotion, not truth.In 2016 I talked about what conservativism was about with a young Hispanic Bernie supporter. I encouraged him to do some study. He did, and today he loves the Constitution and tells everyone why they should vote for Trump.
I’m pushing my mid-sixties and I’ve come to a position that I won’t even waist my time arguing with the “base” of the Dem’s Party. They have embraced every fringe group in America (5% here, 3% there) and now there are so many crazy voices screaming out of that party. They have included all of these nutty ideas into what we see now as their platform. A platform of Mao and Sodom and Gomorrah.
Abortion, case shut. No need to discuss any further.
The irony of the Democrat’s hatred is that Trump is NOT radical in any of his views, and he hasn’t been an ‘in your face’ partisan either - unless attacked by the left. They hate him because he’s not theirs.
I don’t have any liberal friends, and I have disowned my leftist-communist in-laws. Nothing I can say will change their minds, and I don’t particularly care what they think.
I refuse to visit them, and will be conveniently unavailable when / if they visit us, lest there be yelling, screaming, and other unpleasantness.
I am voting for Trump to make sure the democrats do not get a strangle hold on federal power because if they do, they will find ways to get the fbi, atf or other government agency to ‘accidentally’ murder my family and I when I do not comply with their unconstitutional ‘laws’.

I have been hearing from plenty of Dem voters who are sure they are right. This is what concerns them:
Remarks that Trump made in June 2015 when he entered the race that said only SOME Mexicans that come here illegally are good people. The rest were characterized as criminals. This is perceived by the Dems as racist, even though it isn’t.
So use your ideas to combat that misperception. That is the biggest hurdle to converting Dems to the American ideal of preserving the republic and keeping our country from falling into the hands of those who would defeat capitalism.
I don’t have leftist friends and my leftist acquaintances are immune to logic and reason. So I don’t tell them anything. Their minds such as they are are made up and facts aren’t going to have any effect on them.
A rational discussion with a proggie? Hmm...
Progressives are adult children — an adult body housing the mind of a child of, maybe, thirteen. All emotion and genitals, almost no logic or reason.
They only correct after firm parental discipline and loss of privileges, and usually only after a major temper tantrum, and then only for a while.
I suspect they would only learn after they got their way, then suffered the consequences. That may be ok for one kid, but NOT tor a country.
I had a talk with a wonderful cab driver last night, who came up from the start and now is doing extremely well under capitalism. Yet he is voting for the Dems and was even intending to work for them between now and November 3.
I tried to tell him that the extreme wing of the Democrats, now trying to ascend to power using the party, would introduce communism and keep other people from doing what he did.
This is our problem as patriots: the extremists have the standard-issue Democrats in a bind because of all the damaging information they have on them. If the standard Dems hadn’t been so corrupt, this wouldn’t have happened. But they were, and so now this is happening.
If you can explain this to the slightly more open-minded of your liberal friends, you are doing everyone in America a service.
Can conservatives have liberal friends?
I’ve tried everything and nothing works.
It’s base vs. base, so turnout will be the key.

We ALL need to be President Trump surrogates!

Can a Freeper help everyone and explain how to save from twitter to my phone???
My liberal friends don’t have to ask.
Do the old joke of asking why they are voting for Biden without mentioning President Trump. Watch neck veins pop up and listen to the gurgling sounds.
I don’t think logic and love of the Constitution will do anything to change their pea-pickin’ brains.
I’ve listened to some of the #WalkAway videos, and it seems the only way some people will consider changing is if they can be shown — with videos — what their candidates are saying and doing, and how they consistently lie. Because they truly don’t know.
The Brandon Straka “testimony” was interesting. Just one video sent by his old baby sitter turned him. It had to do with the narrative that Trump was making fun of a retarded person in the audience. When it was shown that Trump had used that gesture for decades, he realized he had been lied to. Then he wondered what ELSE they have lied to him about. He checked it out and learned that they’ve lied about almost everything.
For instance, Biden supposedly hates racists. Show them the clip where he said he didn’t want his kids going to an integrated racial “jungle”. They don’t know that; they have to be shown.
And doing a side-by-side comparison, Biden v. Trump, would be interesting.
Just MHO.
