"I Owe Donald Trump A Big Time Apology"
“I owe my Trump-supporting friends an apology. I’ve been critical of Trump.
But to be fair, President Trump wasn’t that bad, other than when he incited an insurrection against the government, mismanaged a pandemic that killed a million Americans, separated children from their families, put masked domestic terrorists in the streets who killed protesters, bombed eight countries in the past year, started a bullshit wag-the-dog war in Iran to cover up his appearance 38,000 times in the Epstein files, lost those children in the bureaucracy, tear-gassed peaceful protesters on Lafayette Square so he could hold a photo op holding a Bible in front of a church, tried to block all Muslims from entering the country, got impeached, got impeached again, had the worst jobs record of any president in modern history, pressured Ukraine to dig dirt on Joe Biden, fired the FBI director for investigating his ties to Russia, bragged about firing the FBI director on TV, took Vladimir Putin’s word over the US intelligence community, diverted military funding to build his wall,

But other than that…”
Author unknown

how could this all happen ?
I love my country, but these dumb fucks are just embarrassing.
Remember the mocking of the pussy hats?
Where's their laughter now?
Kind of hard to claim they're NAZIs. Clowns, maybe.
But it was a bunch of clowns angry with the establishment who believed Hitlers lies and propaganda and put the Nazi's into power.
Ok. So, other than that... everything's good!
Insulted and alienated America's neighbours to the north who were the best friends and allies for the past two centuries sharing the longest unguarded border in the world, by declaring tariffs on Canadian goods claiming that huge amounts of fentanyl were allowed to cross the border when less than 1% of imported fentanyl does, and by saying that Canada steals from the USA because its nation with 10% of the population of the USA does not match America's purchasing which is inflated because of America's purchasing of Canadian oil, gas and lumber. Is strangling and starving the people of Cuba, men, women and children, who are no threat to the USA, invaded a sovereign nation and kidnapped its leader and his wife in order to be able to control its oil, threatening to take over Greenland in order to take over its minerals, and so, other than that as well?
Ok. Yeah. That.
Good lord, how are we surviving this debacle?
I’m telling ya, it’s a Christmas miracle in March ….
This article is a Mt Everest avalanche of reasons Trump should not be president
But what is it saying about Americans for making him PotUS TWICE?
SOME Americans, not even a majority. The majority of Americans didn't vote for Trump in the last election so don't lump us in with those psycho cretins.
2024 Presidential Election
77,897,589 Americans voted against Trump.
77,303,568 voted for the vile pile of excrement.
And another 20 or so million did not vote. Shows how important it is to vote.
I didn't say ALL Americans, but I realize now that you misinterpreted what I said to be "all Americans", which I did not mean. It should be understood, as I had considered, that obviouslly ALL Americans did not vote for him.
It's saying Americans are idiots. But we all knew that already.
To be fair, most Americans did not vote for Trump. I suspect even many who did vote for Trump regret their decision. So that leaves those who continue to support Trump.
And I think that the characteristics are irrational, irresponsible, and unpatriotic.
So if I said Americans play baseball, you would interpret that as ALL Americans play baseball?
Even a stopped clock is considerably wrong numerous times a day!
But enough, if not too many people voted for Trump. Many still support him. That's the problem.
No.
Good, then you understand. Not everyone does.
Does it require the death (lack of survival) of our nation before you recognize damage by Trump?
If someone poisons, cuts, beats, and breaks bones, but the human being survives, is all that damage acceptable?
The magas LOVE everything on the list. They adore Trump for all of it.
I asked Claude to convert this content into a bulleted list:
Yikes!
You can say that again!
14 likes for a single comment-- that may be an NT record!
The ones I posted should be added to that list.
There are literally hundreds of items on this list and yet we still have right wingers calling this Trump derangement syndrome
What else are they going to do but deny, lie, gaslight, and try to dismiss all of Trump's bad as mere delusions?
That is why supporting Trump is irrational, irresponsible, and unpatriotic.
Maybe it's because they see a lot of his character flaws in themselves, and are afraid to admit it.
Holy shit.
This is going in my bookmarks.
And you're not the only one . . .
That there is lots of bullets!
that's quite a list!
I don't know who this #Claude dude/dudette is-- but he/she/they/them is an amazing him/her/it!

Overall assessment
Approximate breakdown of the entire list:
✅ Summary:Your list contains many real controversies and documented statements, but it also mixes in misleading framing, opinion-based criticism, and some outright false internet claims. Separating those categories is necessary to understand the record accurately.
As I have been saying all along. With all the valid complaints why muddy the water about half the time?
Why not address the valid complaints instead of trying to deflect by complaining about the 'context'.
So even your own research shows 75% of the complaints above are either documented fact or true but missing context.
Why won't any Trump supporters here actually tackle those complaints? All I ever hear are deflections to "But Biden!" "But Obama!" "But Clinton!" "But Kamala!". Are any of you actually able to defend Donald Trump without a what-a-bout-ism?
You seem to have spent time trying to debunk the complaints only to find out 75% are true. How about spending some time explaining why you still support a guy who has so many valid complaints instead of simply accusing everyone who points out a Trump flaw of having TDS?
Missing context does not mean true, it means spun dishonestly. You have no issue with that?
I notice you never answered the question. You have no issue promoting 50 % less than accurate statements?
These are ridiculous people who disparage themselves by promoting this laughable "TDS" idea. Its pathetic.
I had asked ChatGPT to create a fact-checked list to mitigate the emotion and poorly worded rhetoric in the seed. The intent was to remove the bias and human error of the seed author.
Instead of fact-checking the list in the comment to which you replied (@4.7.1), you went back to the original list of the seed.
Here is ChatGPT fact-checking the list I posted in the comment to which you replied (@4.7.1):
First, it does not mean that. Just because I state the fact that "Donald Trump is a felon" does not mean it requires some rightwing conservative narrative they consider "context" in order to be true.
Second, even when 'spun', can you honestly claim that those on the right don't spin the fuck out of everything they can to win any sort of political advantage against their opponents? Please, that's just basic politics 101. Do I have an issue with it? Since both sides are doing it and they aren't actually lying about something, they're telling a half truth, it is the nature of the political beast. As for the blatant lies that continue to spill forth from the commander and chief rightwing conservatives elected, that's not spin, it's just lies because he's so fucking dishonest, he can't even find a way to use half-truths.
You have no issue promoting a President that outright lies more than 50% of the time?
I'm just fine with the 45% absolutely true and 75% true with context versus the dipshit Liar-in-Chief who apparently only tells the truth accidently considering it's only 4% of his statements. I really did want to know how so many millions of people can believe that lying sack of shit. It really is frightening. Then I watched the History channel series on North Korea, and it started to make sense. Blind allegiance to and worship of a populist icon that they've been brainwashed to believe is their savior and that they're underdogs fighting against the rest of the world. So pretty much exactly like MAGA.
Watch North Korea: Dark Secrets | HISTORY
Amazing. In fact AI is so 'amazing' at this that I can hardly stand it! The 'breakdowns/outs' are simply stellar!
It is a great resource.
So... According to your own research 75% of the claims on the list are either documented actions / quotes or true but missing context. (but still true) Only 10% are false. It's still a pretty long list.
This is how I feel every time I write a comment about our douchebag POTUS. You start listing the negative things he’s done and next thing you know your run-on sentence is excessively long and there’s still a hundred things you haven’t said and a thousand things you can’t even remember.
I have one to add to the list: It is a 'sin' and a shame when a sitting president OVERSATURATES all communication networks (every day) for ten years running! President that this kind of thing get what they deserve. . .recognition of their failing to understand that a president does his (or her) best work quietly.
Trump craves being seen and seen and seen and seen some more and more and some more and more and some more attention. . . .
Why hasn't an NT Trump supporter posted a list of the GOOD things Trump has done?
Rhetorical question, of course.
challenge them, Buzz!
I just did.
and the list is mostly lies
• Launched the Space Force
• Obliterated the ISIS caliphate

• Signed bipartisan criminal justice reform
• Lowered drug prices and expanded access to medication-assisted treatment.

• Achieved record energy production and exports.
• Implemented massive bureaucracy cuts and federal workforce reductions.

ChatGPT:
Awww, I’m sure his handlers worked hard on that.
They didn't work very hard. 80% of it is a joke and the rest are things he shouldn't be proud of like giving billionaires more tax breaks in his "Fat Ugly Legislation", FUGLI for short.
I was on the line with the IRS yesterday. . .and to my surprise there is a tele-prompt on the IRS "request" line that uses the phraseology: "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" - I state that to signify that - it is its OFFICIAL NAME. Odd, and yes it is.
Nice work. Thank you for taking the time to research this. So much energy goes into correcting those individuals who labor to deceive us and misinform us at every turn. Your persistence (and so many others here) at correcting the 'record' is appreciated, welcomed, and dare I say 'adored'!
Finally, I appreciate (and learn from you) on how to make AI work 'harder' for answers (me)!
omg lol
You probably can't count ten leftists in this country that agree these things are positive for this country.[✘]
First, nobody should agree with the items that are false or exaggerations.
Second, rational thinkers do not think that Trump's tariffs are good for this nation. Maybe Trump supporters (inexplicably) do, but that is irrational.
But items like Space Force have not been criticized, and support for a secure border is applauded.
The problem is that Trump's words and deeds are overwhelmingly bad so there really is not a lot for rational human beings to applaud.
For a good deed and deeds done for our mutually shared country and done as service for ALL its people I thank whomsoever executes such actions-including Trump. Overall, for taking one or several 'steps' back for each advancing 'step,' for attempting to cast all of the country into one mold of a man (Trump); for disrespecting half the country and telling others they are inferior and irrelevant. . . and dividing 'us' I can not support that no way and at no time. Indeed, I will rebuke!
Oh and for that matter. . .when. . .as some would call it: "Rightist" can comment Barack Obama and Joe Biden for the good they have done for our mutually shared country it will go a long way to healing the breach that some are acting to further gape.
Here's what the rightwing thinks is positive about this country...
The first post on November 27, 2025 reads: "If you are a straight guy that like a American army girl stop scrolling and leave a '❤️' 🥺," and shows her sitting in an office with an American flag on the wall in the background.
The comments section is full of red hearts, as well as compliments about her appearance. One user wrote, "You are a goddess of beauty ❤️❤️❤️❤️."
"All this is just bait to pick up right-leaning men straight into adult subscription sites," Fast Company wrote in its reporting on Wednesday, March 11.
The business publication added that the account "pulls in cash primarily by peddling fetish content, specifically foot photography, while farming direct tips from subscribers that can hit over $100 on a single post."
MAGA men swindled by AI model
I saw this on Face Book yesterday. It also showed her with a very short skirt that was part of her uniform. I wore skirts in the AF. They were never that short and were never going to be that short. I think mine came down to the middle of my knee. This skirt was well above her knees
Honestly, I am at a loss for words on this one!
AI model?
Well, she does have the 'mandatory' child-bearing hips!
... and he's better than Biden, Harris and Clinton.
BDS HDS and CDS.... wow.
oooooooooooo. Got me. ooooooooooooo.
It is called the infatuation of the imaginary "DS". I guess you can call it "DDS".

Some true, some false, some missing context, some no one cares about except Trump hysteria train riders, some seem to be a problem because....... Trump.
All DNC approved talking points
With all the valid things to complain about you would think folks would keep a little credibility if they chose only valid points and not just go for quantity over quality.
There are in the neighborhood of 400 items on the original list. Even if you throw half of them out there are still far more than enough to state with certainty that Trump is not fit for office.
This list also proves the ridiculous fantasy that there is Trump Derangement Syndrome is preposterous.
The loss of credibility for putting out so many false claims is not a problem?
It proves just the opposite. Promoting so many inaccurate statements as fact and getting wound up about minor things is the definition of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Sticking to the valid complaints is always best if trying to keep credibility
Indeed. And instead of using the list of valid complaints I provided you went back to those produced by the seed author. You clearly do not want to deal with the valid complaints.
see @4.7.6 based on @4.7.1
Ridiculous, absurd and laughable.
Most of what comes out of Trumps mouth is preposterous , if not borderline insane. That's why the person who compiled this list could find 400 items.
There is nothing to "discuss" here.
When I first saw it I knew some of the list was more opinion than fact, but most of it is fact and almost all of it are defensible opinions about Trump. The MAGAs cannot defend any of it so they attack the messenger.
Of course they attack the messenger. And of course they will ignore a more factual version of the seed author's list. There is no intent to deal with truth, it is always the irrational, irresponsible, and unpatriotic defense of Trump that matters to them. (Where 'they' and 'them' refer to active Trump supporters.)
I responded to the list you provided in 4. If you didn't think the list was accurate maybe you shouldn't have posted it
So fact checking a list is now going after the author? Ludicrous
See 9.1 6 and 9.1.7.

I asked ChatGPT to reformat the seed content. I never stated that I accepted it verbatim.
I later posted a list @4.7.1 based on that content fact-checked by ChatGPT.
You continue to ignore the fact-checked list. Just more dishonest support for Trump.
I asked for chatgpt to fact check the list also. Twice
You continue to ignore the fact-checked lists. Just more dishonest irrational hatred of Trump
Thats enough, there are over 200 items on the list that even you don't dispute. If you keep saying there is no basis for the list I will have to think about deleting you.
Such bullshit.
I did not ignore it. I had already recognized that the original list had some poorly stated claims and had human bias.
That is why I asked ChatGPT to produce a list based on the original but fact-checked and worded properly.
That is the critical list and that is what you continue to ignore.
Rational criticism of Trump that you ignore as part of the irrational, irresponsible, unpatriot attempts to defend Trump.
[✘]
That's alot of bullshit.
You obviously had no issue with the original list until it was fact checked and inaccuracies pointed out. Then you went into spin mode.
That is not fooling anyone but spin away, it is cute.
More bullshit.
I have repeatedly stated why I posted a fact-checked version of the list.
You keep ignoring it. More feeble tactics by you in your endless attempts to defend Trump.
It is there so-called intent to 'mitigate' on behalf of "Donald." One of the tactics to do so is to question the validity of the 'messenger' to message (in the first place). They even do this to reporters. . . and DOJ - AG even attempts to do so in congressional hearings. . . until the politicians get sick of it and tear her a 'new one.'
Cute?
(How so?)
I think nit picking the original list, which is one VERY long sentence by the way, is a red herring compared to the big picture. The list is an extremely long retort to MAGA, as well it should be.
Nit-picking, deflection, lying, etc. That is how many Trump supporters try to defend Trump.
but but...there's too many words to read.....whine!
