Psssst, Trump supporters...

It’s not just the military Trump despises, he despises you as well.

This is what many veterans, families with Members serving in the Military, Gold Star families, etc are all realizing.

This is what Trump doesn’t want any of his supporters to wake up to: he hates us all.

Welcome to the club y’all.

He loves the land not the people on it or the concepts that have endured two centuries. He wants to own the whole country so he can sell it back to us at a profit. It’s really disgusting. His oath is to the constitution. It’s obvious he’s never read any of it

Have we ever heard him say that he is a student of the Constitution? Have we ever heard him say that he remembers the oath he took at his inauguration, and that he is committed to keeping his oath?

Of course not, because he believes in NONE of it. He lied his way into the White House and he'll continue to lie to stay in the White House. He's lying to stay out of prison. By now, we should all know this.

... "staR" ("when you're a STAR, they let you do it"...).

That's all that narcissistic a$$hole cares about since decades: being viewed as a "star" whether it is by Forbes, Fox, or as IMPOTUS.

Breaking any law to get there doesn't shame that particular felon-to-be: it's a trophy for his sick mindset.

He blames America for his business failures. Trump is not a Russian asset, he's a Russian agent. He is fully aware and proud of the damage he is doing to our country. If he gets a second term, he will treat his supporters like trash. And I won't shed a single tear for them.

...his "yuck" buddy has already confirmed this. He said that Magats would been astonished to hear how much he loathes them.

If he wasn't forced to "press the flesh" with the hoi polloi he wouldn't.

It is all a giant con to enrich himself and his "friends".

7. "The people Trump despises most, love him the most"

Howard Stern spoke candidly about longtime friend Donald Trump on his SiriusXM radio show on Tuesday.

Trump attended Stern’s wedding in 2008 and has been on his SiriusXM show “too many times to count,” Stern said last year. “He was one of the top 5 guests of all time. He was wild…completely unfiltered.”

“The oddity in all of this is the people Trump despises most, love him the most,” said Stern on Tuesday. “The people who are voting for Trump, for the most part … He wouldn’t even let them in a f*cking hotel. He’d be disgusted by them. Go to Mar-a-Lago, see if there’s any people who look like you. I’m talking to you in the audience.”

Trump prefers the to rub elbows with the rich and famous, said Stern.

he validates their grievances and fears, he knowingly lies to them that he's on their side. Sad thing is they're gullible enough to actually believe it.

He's not a fighter himself, he's too scared. Instead, he pays thugs to fight his battles for him by somehow convincing them that loyalty to him is more honorable than loyalty to country.

He spent his entire life impressing that he was a member of the elite class, a gold plated icon among lesser billionaires. Now all of a sudden he wants to play a working class hero and mindless minions eat it up.

I'll never understand his appeal.

As an aside, I often ask supporters to sell him to me. I want to join the happy MAGAs. One friend told me "The stock market is booming and black unemployment is at an all time low". I replied that the stock market was already soaring when he took the oath so your only problem with Obama was that he wasn't good enough to black people? Shoulda seen his face.

Fascist strongmen have long understood this: that the quickest way to people's heart, is to make them feel you share their hate.

And shamelessly, for best results.

For a fascist like Cheeto, the military is only good for two things: parades, and terrorizing people in other countries (preferably brown and/or Muslim).

The last thing they want to hear, is that there are actual men and women inside those uniforms - least of all minorities!

He's definitely amused and intrigued by his supporters, but he views them as "poorly educated" suckers who are so obsessed with him that they'd be willing to excuse away treason and murder. He doesn't respect them at all. At least we see through his s***.
