Why are lefties obsessed with Trump?

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

You don't build a multi billion dollar brand from scratch without being a leader

[Dunners]

Envy. Although there may be others, this is the main reason why lefties are obsessed with Trump. Good on him for calling out China and the WHO. Leaders come in all shapes and sizes, but he is truly a giant among men. Easy to criticise when you're not the one having o call the shots.

Wonder what it is about the billionaire alpha and his hot wife, who beat queen of the woke Hilary, that the beta Cuckorbynites hate......

[Ronnie Hotdogs]

Every one of the lefties on here must be reading this crap and crying with laughter

Alpha male, seriously? Greenbacks are the only reason he's got to where he is. Look at the countless testimonies from anyone who has ever had the misfortune of getting too close to him, that tells you what sort of man he really is.

(Except for his current wife, but you can see from the look on her face most of the time what she's thinking).

Now let me think, this man is the free world leader. i.e President of the United States. Not many people get that job, He saw the gap in the market that appealed to people, they flocked to him, he delivers on what the voters wanted. Nailed on cert for re-election.
Now let me think, you are.... a nothing, taking swipes at a guy you know will ignore you and your like, what a sad thing you are.

I am fascinated with the fact that even in 2020, there's still a perceived need for a 'leader' to be a certain type of person, who is an alpha, who is infallible, who never admits they were wrong. It's part of the reason the worlds f*cked.

Boris pretending he wasn't ill for so long and almost dying is a great example. Another is Trump saying that Americans need to wear face masks and then refusing to do it himself, presumably because it would make him look un-Alpha. It's all so pathetic and insecure.

He wasn't calling out China when he was looking for a trade deal. He was actually praising President Xi back on January 24th.

He then downplayed the Virus over the next few months. Over 40 thousand travelled back to the US after this so called travel ban from China at the end of January. Far more travelled back after the partial European ban. The Governors one by one ordered stay at home orders apart from some Republican Governors. Trump is full of it. Don't forget, Boris never ordered the shut down of any major mass gatherings until it was too late. Who will Trump blame today at his Rally?

Too date, he has blamed:

Democrats
Impeachment
Media and Fake News
WHO
The Governors
China
That he is a cheerleader
States are responsible for Testing and PPE
Obama and Biden
Other Administrations

Pelosi, in letter to colleagues, goes after Trump. “The truth is a weak person, a poor leader, takes no responsibility. A weak person blames others.” https://t.co/61yy6Yg5RL https://t.co/y0F73SOLpg

Really? On what are you basing this rubbish?

Obama showed us what a real President should look and behave like, if only he was still in charge the USA wouldn't be f*cked like this. Still, you keep on spouting your tosh about what a great man this clown Trump is. Here's hoping the Americans wake up to him this time around.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

He's outwardly and obviously racist, which appeals to a load of americans, and a fair few Brits too, I imagine.

[Long slender neck]

Yes, but we're talking about the lefty fascination with him.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

I dont really understand the question (aside from the obvious WUM that you've succeeded in)?

Why the lefty obsession with Hitler in 1940 guys, I mean he is the leader of a foreign country, why does it matter what he does?

I know the right is insular, but surely everyone realises why the leader of the self-proclaimed biggest superpower, who constantly spouts racists and extreme right views might be of interest to lefties?

[Long slender neck]

Dont see you ranting about Putin and the Chinese though? Who get up to far worse things than Donald.

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Oh, so thats what 3 pages of discussion was for. Why didnt you make your point in the opening post?

[Redcard]

Exactly, the Chinese are re-educating Muslims in prison like confines and even the Muslims are silent.
Trump makes a few inappropriate comments and everyone condemns him as a racist.

[Long slender neck]

I did but a lot of people just ignored it and replied with a Trump rant. I think our culture has become so American-ified that people think that this is America, so get all worked up over what he does.

Agreed. But I also don't really understand the argument that 'you don't talk about China so you cant talk about Trump'. It's the same thing that winds me up when people say you cant criticise the government because you couldn't do better. They are completely different things. One doesn't rely on the other.

America is the most powerful and influential nation on earth, for now. It's actions military, economic, political, cultural etc impact on every citizen on earth.

It's not Trump as such people are obsessed with because he is only one man at the head of an aggressive state. The current focus on Trump is because it is difficult for people to comprehend how such a flawed individual could become President and remain in that position given his unsuitablity.

[Long slender neck]

Of course you can talk about whatever you like, I just wonder why some people are so focussed on him when most of the things he does arent relevant to us.

Everything he and America do is obviously of relevance to us.

Ok. In future we should ignore the rest of the world and confine ourselves to only talking about the UK.

Of course it does. Isn't there a cliche about America sneezing and the world catching Covid 19.

[Currywurst and Chips]

Some of the stuff he does that has a global impact is worth criticising

When people get on their high horse about domestic stuff, a lot of the time it's virtue signalling to score Marx marks in their echo chambers

[Long slender neck]

There's talking and there's obsessing over someone. The media and many lefties are obsessed.

Maybe it is just you fella. Personally, the orange one hardly rates a thought.
