Subj : Republicans vs Trump To : Aaron Thomas From : Dale Shipp Date : Tue Sep 08 2020 01:33 am -=> On 09-07-20 02:02, Aaron Thomas <=- -=> spoke to Dale Shipp about Re: The Atlantic <=- DS> Actually McCain and Romney were the only two Repubicans who did not DS> abandon their party in favor of Trumpism. Just compare what many other AT> What do you mean by "abandon their party?" The reason for Trump's AT> success (success through the eyes of the conservative) is his devotion AT> to conservative causes. The only thing that Trump is devoted to is his own ego and his own pocket book. AT> You think it's a coincidence that both of those men lost the AT> presidential election and both are critical of Trump, while all the AT> other Republicans love the crap out of him? Those two men had integrity. AT> Trump can cheat on his wife, talk derogatory about sharia law, talk AT> derogatory about John McCain, and he can even keep his tax returns AT> private, but we don't care about that crap. All we care about is his AT> policies and we've seen him work pretty diligently towards attaining AT> some of them. And you just explained that Trump is devoid of any moral compass. AT> and "Trump only got us 1/2 of a wall and Mexico didn't pay.." Actually, Trump came no where near to 1/2 of the wall he promised. He did rebuild a moderate amount of existing wall, but only built a few miles of new walls. Of course Mexico didn't pay -- and Trump knew that they never would. That was just one of his campaign bluster promises. AT> That's a bunch of crap that we honestly don't give a crap about. He's AT> still our man for 2020. There's no Republican who we can look up to as AT> much as we look up to Trump. Too bad. Consider what so many current prominent Republicans said about him before he won the nomination versus what they say now. The word hypocrisy comes to mind.
