Some Trump supporters have spoken up on Reddit. The question was what would it take for a Trump supporter to switch to a different candidate. The responses are interesting, in a Donald sort of way.
User ThreeStarUniform said that if Trump admitted “I was only running to clinch it for Hillary,” would lose his support. Threatening a draft or saying anime isn’t real would also be an end game.
The Reddit community agreed that anime was a critical issue for them this election. “I didn’t even know I could be this triggered,” ihatethesidebar admitted.
This is an issue? That’s news to me.
Pornography is also an important issue for Reddit users. “Coming after internet porn is getting pretty f*cking close to finishing him off in my book,” one person wrote, as snickers followed.
Jrf_1973 is concerned about the TPP. They would be done if Trump were to say, “I’ve spoken to Hillary, and she is definitely definitely going to stop TPP. And I know I said I was going to do that, because it’s such a terrible treaty.. but if Hillary is truly against it, and I believe she is, then I must be for it. So if elected, I will absolutely pass TPP.”
Users agreed that they understood all of the words in that statement and that Trump has “the best words.”
Uh…I’m at a loss for words. Words that when strung together actually make sense, that is.
Redditer thisishowiwrite said that when they saw the list of tweets of Trump denying climate change is real, that was the end for them. Another user corrected them saying that Trump only denies climate change, unless it impacts him.

Another Reddit user described a creative event in detail that it would take to pull support from Trump this way: “Says he loves ISIS and takes a big sh*t on the American flag that’s covering the casket of a dead soldier while Westboro Baptist Church throws confetti on him.”
ScipioAfricanvs remarked that Mr. Trump has already taken “a big sh*t in the casket of a dead soldier,” referring to Cpt. Khan.
I’m glad someone pointed out the situation with Trump and his complete nastiness towards the Khan family.
A user who admitted his father is a die-hard Trump supporter who would never leave the candidate, summed it. “He could murder his wife, I wouldn’t care.” “We arent voting for trump, we are voting to find out the truth about Obama and where he came from, and what grades he got, and who his real father is,” his father told him.
“My dad then started talking about how he will never find out what happened to JFK, maybe his grandson (age 9) will find out, but in my dad’s lifetime he won’t get to know,” the user continues. “And it is ‘obvious the JFK assassination was set up by someone in the government.’ But we won’t ever know what really happened with JFK, or all the secrets Obama has. A vote for Trump would ‘reveal all of Obama’s secrets’ and ‘get Obama and Hillary locked up.’”
The user clarified, “My dad also believes that trump can’t actually harm America because ‘Congress won’t let him.’ But Hillary and Obama will make America a third world country that we won’t be able to recover from in my (me, age 31) lifetime.”
How in the hell anyone could possibly reason with the above person is beyond me. There’s an intense level of stupid in this country.

A vote for Trump would ‘reveal all of Obama’s secrets’
So they’re in favor of Edward Snowden?
Marcus, I don’t understand the leap in that sentence. How in the fuckety fuck would voting for Trump reveal any secrets at all?
I am baffled too.
I guess the theory is that if Trump gets in he’ll tell the CIA and NSA to open their files? Or something? Maybe Trump will turn Area-51 into a golf course and then they’ll have to reveal the alien ships.
I’ve run into weird-wingers who a) hate Edward Snowden because he was anti-establishment but b) wish someone would reveal the government’s secrets. It’s uh, uh, uh… My mind goes into a strange loop and stops with the dial on ‘E’
Also: “make america’s military great again” nearly caused my head to explode. The only way to make america’s military great again is to slash the defense budget and completely gut and reconstruct the pentagon. We spend more on our military than the rest of the world combined and the Afghanis and Iraqis are winning. It’s because the DOD is focused on tech toys and not capability.
This stuck out to me as well. The Orange One will apparently just make a proclamation, and the US Marshals will arrest Obama and Clinton and throw them in jail. It doesn’t matter that numerous investigations have not found Clinton culpable in any wrongdoing. And WTF will Obama be locked up for? Presidenting while black? Sounds like these people are longing for a North Korean style government.
Johnson catman:
I’m pretty sure there are a good number of people who would be fine with that. And Hillary could be gotten for presidenting while female.
The mildly deranged penguin points out the JFK “assassination” conspiracy “theories” overlook the obvious fact Mr K wasn’t shot and wasn’t even in the car, albeit he was in Dallas at the time. Mr K was the guy with the rife in the tower, and the “President” who was shot was his Reptilian impostor. Mr K had been switched by the Reptilians quite some time earlier, but he manged to escape. No-one, however, believed he was the real President, generally saying “there there poor boy” whilst waving frantically for the straightjacket. Precisely why Mr K decided to shoot the impostor, what he thought / planned would then happen, or what then happened to him, are the real mysteries. (Mr Oswald was a Reptilian stooge sent to deflect attention from the shot impostor; Mr Ruby was a Reptilian agent sent to rescue Reptilian Oswald. But you knew that.)

But you have to admit, the wormhole made by the hyperdrive will make for one hell of an 18th!
