He said he wanted to break down the swamp which was politics as usual. They felt threatened. He called out the fake news. They might lose their power. Personally I did not hate him so I don’t get it either.

Sam Harris said the quiet part out loud though, they simply did not care what happened to us and America they need to destroy him and his supporters. I’m still appalled at the depth of hatred we witnessed.

It must be some kind of a very contagious mass psychosis. I see no other explanation. I myself have experienced a wide range of emotions related to Trump: first, I couldn’t believe such a vulgar, poorly educated and uncultured dude with shady business deals and bad taste could be elected our President lol; I thought we deserved better. Then I was disgusted by his poorly written and delivered speeches and his unwillingness to compromise, silly me. I thought if only he went to hug George Floyd’s family, things could be different. Then I saw how his enemies treated him and began to feel sorry for him and admire his resilience. I do not like or respect him, but those who hate him with such animal passion as many do, they simply belong to a mental asylum. Every single thing they are doing now or thinking of doing is to prevent Trump’s return to power. They are obsessed with it, and, for some inexplicable reason, scared to death of this prospective. And this pathological fear and hatred of Trump is turning our country into a Stalinist regime with censorship and persecution of dissidents. Surreal.

Exactly, nor do those suffering TDS seem to be able to grasp Trump will not be influencing US politics for long, one way or another. The man is nearly 80, not nearly as age addled as Biden, but still not long for this planet. Dems couldn't just find a better candidate and seek to beat him at the ballot box fairly, or wait out a 2nd term? We have term limits. Age limits us all eventually. The answer has to be they fear Trump's ideas, will last far longer than the man.

They are not able to think rationally. The level of hatred that shut down their brain function will be a subject of psychiatric research for generations to come lol. I hope they will teach it in medical schools as an aberration. Unless we will be living in alternative Orwellian reality. Then the only thing they will teach in medical schools is DEI.

Trump is quite the character. I just can’t remember any public figure that had to dodge arrows from enemies 24/7, always fighting back. I found him to be a person who loved this country and truly wanted to make it better, if you could get past his bravado and listen. But he was not talking to the elites, academia or the press core. He appealed to the deplorables, the forgotten masses that did not live on the coasts or were people who thought they were smarter than blue collar workers who perhaps were plumbers or nurses. He was not a swamp creature either. Personally I would have voted for Barney before Hillary. Hatred is blinding.

“Hatred is blinding” So true. And while in a 24/7war with virtually everyone outside of his circle, which also perpetually changed, Trump managed to pass so many laws that are good for the country. Biden’s gang never mentions them, and Biden has struck down most of them with an executive order.

Do you remember Bill Clinton? Arrows? 24/7? For 8 years?

Granted, much brought on by himself. But then, Trump brings a lot of it on himself as well (e.g., "perfect" Ukraine call).

That's interesting. One of these days you will come to realize the truth about Ukraine, Dept of State, Soros, Biden crime family, etc and even the current R/U conflict. Masterfully planned and executed for the greater good of the WEF's great reset.

Ah, the truth. Please enlighten us, wise one. When you write tinfoil hat stuff like that without any backing, you lose the audience quickly. You may have great points, and I would undoubtedly share some or many. But the Vince Foster Was Murdered headline without support isn't interesting.

And please make a relevant connection back to my comment or the one I replied to.

Fine. Connection -the Ukraine call was perfect. I said nothing about Vince Foster so who is making irrelevant comments? Okay on the tinfoil hat - it protects against MSM propaganda. We all live in our own reality. Matt is new to uncovering how our gov works and with whom. Find out all about Ukraine here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=si-vMj-FB88

I have followed this person for 15 years and he has his own network. His videos on Youtube usually get scrub before they are allowed. I watch on The Blaze, which you have to subscribe to.

You nailed it. To think we went from at least trying to hide the affair with the intern all the way to "grab 'em by the..." was like a drop down a roller coaster. Unbelievable. But OK, that passes muster now. I almost prefer being allowed to be obscene in politics to the stupid stuff like "I didn't inhale" rectitude. My father, who passed away last year, was one who told me often he feared Trump was a Russian asset. There are a lot of reasons I wish he was still around, but a big one is the talks he and I would be able to have about the stuff that guys like Matt and Glenn are talking about.

"I’m still appalled at the depth of hatred we witnessed."

That sentence should not be past tense. It's ongoing and getting more severe.
