Harris is not in support of anything, she is told what to do every step of the way. She doesnt do interviews and she is owned. But I get your point. The military industrial complex loves forces Eastern nations to go to the 5.56. 

And I bet you think Trump arrived at Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Coney Barrett because he's so knowledgeable about Constitutional Law?

God, I wish I didn't care as much as I do. I wish I could just put on the blinders and choose to be a dipshit like you. But the fact is if I don't care, then people like you are the ones making decisions for me and my son, and my nieces.

Over and over again, Trump supporters show that they are not only incapable of making informed decisions, but they are totally willing to make decisions out of cruelty. There's no way in Hell that I'm letting you idiots control my country.

Helles has been a poster since shaggy days iirc I would say that if your interactions with him were a bit less aggressive it would be far less entertaining but more effective for a conversation. 

I think it's really important that everyone understands what's going on with people like stros and helles especially right now and running them off is not the right thing to do.

I was polite. But define effective. He literally believes Donald trump hasn’t taken a position On Ukraine, and he can’t answer direct questions and he doesn’t seem to understand communism versus capitalism. On top of the racism stuff.

C'mon dude. You know damn well they have no interest in a conversation. They've avoided any and all questions, requests to expound upon their positions, and attempts to engage in a good faith discussion in favor of thread jumping and shitting.

The only reasons to vote for Trump are partially laid out by HellesBier.  Some combo (not necessarily all depending on the voter) of that voter being racist/greedy/wealthy/selfish/low information/single issue abortion voter.  
 

I hear the “you can’t get anywhere persuasively insulting the other side”. And, yes, with a normal candidate, that’s true.  But with Trump, anytime after  drill in on why someone supports Trump or is willing to hold their nose and vote for him given all he’s done and said and plans to do, it boils down to the above.

I’ve said it many times. There are only 3 types of Trump supporters: 1) wealthy folks that will do anything to get more money, like Elon; 2) completely uninformed people who fell for all the propaganda, or just don’t pay attention, and that includes conservatives, religious right Christians who are basically hypocrites, and others who think he’s good for them when he’s just a crook, traitor, grifter, convict, etc; and 3) racists. 

He suddenly popped up with #3 to go with #2. It’s gotten to the point that given that, it’s become very difficult to show these people patience and niceness. After all, they are supporting a candidate who preaches hate and lies every time he opens his mouth and his followers now demonstrate the same behavior. At some point you have to ask the question, “why treat them with respect when they don’t practice it or earn it?”

People accepting this behavior is what will destroy this country.
