Trump Supporter: I don't like all of the diversity

Last edited Sun Oct 24, 2021, 05:04 AM - Edit history (1)

His wife, Tayler Downs, 25, wore a pink “Women for Trump” pullover sweatshirt. She wants him to pursue a second term. And she has a decidedly different take on the prospects for civil war than her husband.

“I don’t like all of the diversity, I think is the word I’m thinking of, between people of mixed races now that have went on this last year,” she said. “It’s bothersome to me. I feel like the United States is going back to war, racial war, and stuff like that. It sucks.”

Whose fault is that?

“Quite a few people,” she said. “But it didn’t seem to happen while Trump was in office."

The whole Koch monster is designed to get people riled pointlessly unless it slows or reverses what they oppose. Which is certainly a more moral, healthy, ethical, diverse society.

You gave me the best laugh so far today! I think I’m stealing your comment regarding the intellect of the loyal tRump supporters. A wad of used toilet paper ……

Non of these neo-nazis would have been welcomed by Hitler. That's the irony. They are literally misfits.

because the shooter thought Jews and immigrants were replacing white people.

Sounds a little 'they wanted a race war to happen' to me.

It's all me, me, ME.

I don't like this. I don't believe in this. I want the world to be just like I want it to be!

How about a paradigm shift?

I don't personally believe in this, but hey, it's a free country and as long as your rights don't impede or threaten my rights, health and welfare, carry on.

The problem with conservatism is that it wants Americans to be a group of 300 million individuals. There is no society, just individuals living on the same ground. It's a distortion of what human beings are capable of being.

It'll be the death of us one day if we don't eradicate it soon.

Tayler Downs of Gardner, Kansas, wants Trump to seek a second term. She’s concerned about a race war.

She’s from Kansas.

Maybe she drove up to the recent rally in Des Moines at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, but she’s identified as being from Gardner, KS, in the article.
