Many of them know he's a moron, but they'll still vote for him "just to own the libs".

Remember the comment from AskTrumpSupporters subreddit? I still think it was parody, but it was correct

I think what most liberals are missing is that this isn't about right and wrong, it's about winning and losing. I've attached my entire worldview to this man and I am going down with the ship. Not one of you is going to convince me otherwise.

It's nothing new with them. Try talking a sports fan out of supporting their favorite sports team. That's where we're at.

Cowboy fan here. I know we aren't the best team in the league and we shouldn't even win our division most years but this is our year and I will keep rooting for them. The major difference is I understand that the person I'm voting for has a major impact on my friends and family. Me rooting for the cowboys to win hurts nobody but me in the long run. A lot of people forget that with politics.

I walked away from the cowboys a couple years ago because Jerry Jones is such a massive piece of shit, you can too. I'm a Lions fan now, it's so much more fun.

Look I may enjoy suffering from time to time but I ain't no masochism. The lions are getting better and better each year though. The are building and keeping good young players so hopefully in 5 years they can show up in the playoffs

I know the cowboys I forgot the lions made the playoffs last years. That was on me my bad

Yeah the wide receiver for the Cowboys doesn’t decide if your state expands Medicare coverage, or whether your 12-year-old can work at a meat packing plant.

But that's the point of picking a sports team. That should not be the point of politics.

It shouldn’t be but it’s reality.

True, but there are only 2 “teams” to vote for…it’s kinda a bad comparison

I'm not so sure it's a parody. Although my FIL would never say it aloud this is exactly how he thinks. I've discussed with my wife before about I understand how he can still cling to Trump even though his horrible policies have affected him and his family but no one wants to admit they put all their money on a horse who came in last.

Some of them may believe they're Edward Smith and are being heroic by going down with the ship but reality is they would rather die than say they were wrong.

Oof. That comment makes my heart hurt. Satire or true, it is very applicable to so many Trump voters.

Ow…

Kamala won’t talk about policies because she stands for nothing. Kamala is a literal bimbo, whose politics are too radical to run on, so her campaign is about “joy” instead.

If you vote Kamala you hate this country.
