Trump voters: if audio surfaced of him calling war heroes “losers” who would you vote for?

Trump reportedly called war heroes “losers” and “suckers.”

While that’s not confirmed, it is confirmed that he’s referred to other war heroes as such. He himself is a draft dodger. And he allowed Russia to put bounties on our soldiers.

If you haven't abandoned Mr. Trump already, there is nothing why you shouldn't continue to support him, even if said expressions are on tape. Trumpism, which essentially has taken over the GOP, isn't a serious political philosophy or even a vision for America, it's a cult. If such a tape existed and came out, the cultists will continue to embarrass themselves by trying to defend their cult leader with the most absurd excuses, or they will claim the tape is fake. Just another Dem, radical left or mainstream media hoax to sink their dear leader.

Well, I would argue with this take for being overly biased and critical of ordinary republicans, except that the take is infact entirely correct.

I agree. Normal Republicans and decent Americans have already endorsed Biden.  Everyone else in the party is supporting Trump.

No, “normal Republicans” haven’t endorsed Biden. Trump is the symptom of a rotten party, not the disease you know. I’m tired of people on both sides acting like he’s an aberration.

Edit: Some Nixon tapes got unclassified this week. Look how he talked about Indira Gandhi. The GOP has been like this since Eisenhower left office. Trump is just the supernova of all of this. He just doesn’t hide it.

[Frozen Sky Ever Why]

Not a Republican, though I am a Trump supporter, and while Trump could lose my vote, it would be because of actions not words. I will never vote for a Democrat again after the events of these last few months, so Biden wouldn't be an option in any case.

The "events of these last few months" being a bunch of people who are not Democrats rioting in the streets while Democrats denounce them and Biden calls for them to be prosecuted?

Oh okay, so someone can demean and degrade the troops and you’d still vote for them.  You’re so patriotic and classy.

It only took Biden a whole summer to decide to denounce them, no big deal

Trump’s Covid response was an action, (or a lack of an action.)

Russia put bounties on our troops, Trump knew and did nothing.

Trump called our troops who perished in battle “losers” and “suckers.”

Trump said a prisoner of war was not a war hero.

Which is more egregious?

The Russian bounties are part of geopolitics. We support people in the Ukraine and Syria killing Russians.

The two quotes about dead soldiers are media hearsay that haven’t been proven. You’re arguing in bad faith.

Hitler was a war hero too.

Off topic, but why would you consider supporting Hawkins if you weren’t voting for Trump? He’s pretty left wing.

He’s militantly anti-war. As I’ve said for years, I would dump Trump the second he invaded Iran.

[TrendsareUsuallyReal]

LMAO be real. No they wouldn't. He has said almost as bad things on tape and Twitter on a near weekly basis and he still is polling in the low to mid 40's.

[President Johnson]

Of course they would still back him. He may have meant it as a joke, but the Fifth Avenue remark is absolutely true. They also were fine with the attacks on McCain and the Khan family.

[Andrew]

If Trump ate a baby on live TV, his supporters would blame the baby.  And Hillary.

[Okay, maybe Mike Johnson is a competent parliamentarian.]

[Progressive Pessimist]

Trump can break a supporter's legs and they'd still crawl into the voting booth to vote for him.

They will never turn on him. They don't care.

They can't hear you, they've shoved their fingers in their ears.

"Plenty of other presidents have eaten babies in private, and Democrats knew about it and said nothing, but now Trump does it and you lose your minds."

Tell us that Trump loves the vets and loves our country. Tell us.
