In recent weeks, I've had two people, that I genuinely like and respect, go off the rails on Trump without considering that I may not feel the same way. This brazen confidence of TDS sufferers drives me nuts more than anything. Both have expressed with high emotion how much they hate him and each would like to see him in jail - or worse. In these cases, I've bitten my tongue and changed the subject because I didn't want to ruin the relationship - but at the same time I silently questioned their individuality and common sense. No human is perfect. DJT, while awesome and a very stable genius, has flaws like everyone else. But to ignore the Cadaver in Chief currently acting as pResident and his horrendous performance the past three years while focusing on hating his unfairly represented poltical opposition is just a sign of how well the propaganda has worked. My fear is that these type of people will never see past the lies they've come to believe as gospel and that 2024's election is going to be the most contentious, yet. What do you think will have to happen for these people to see the light? Destruction of the MSM? WWIII? Biden and his global cohorts arrested for crimes against humanity? All of the above? I think next time anyone expresses hate for Trump, I am just going to ask them why they feel that way. I'm thinking they've been told to hate him for so long, they really won't know how to answer.

A lot of people seem to be unable to get beyond a personal dislike for DJT. Most people I know who have TDS are not people of faith. Those who are are people who have overly simplistic perceptions that we are supposed to "be nice". But current times call for discernment, which many people lack. 2 Corinthians 4:4 puts it well:
"The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God."
They probably use that same bible verse against you and I as well. It's all in interpretation - and so far religion is failing on its fallen ass.
They certainly do. They say I'm "deluding myself". One co-worker says MAGA and Christian Nationalism 👈 (not even sure what that is) are facist movements. And that I'm good at spinning the truth. I only share factual evidence, not talking points from Salon or The Atlantic.
And this is from a guy that grew up Catholic and sent his kids to parochial school.
Modern day hipster christians. I'd rather be atheist if I had to compete with these braindead morons!
