And This Is Only About Illegal Invaders!

 https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2026/05/trying_to_get_through_to_my_liberal_friends.html

The above article is a great example of just how foolish the "progressives" are in their vice-like grip of stupid positions.  Because Trump said it in regard for the loyalty of his supporters, his detractors ran with it as an admission of truth, that there's nothing Trump can do which would separate him from his supporters.  No evil, no great mistake, no outlandish deception...No.  We'll just support him regardless.

But what the article presents is evidence of more projection by the left...that they will not stop supporting leftist politicians or policies no matter how much evidence is provided to expose the idiocy of such loyalty, while stating MAGA will never abandon Trump regardless of any evil act he might perpetrate.  

And this is only about illegal invaders!  It really holds true on any issue one can imagine. My previous post gives a list which demonstrates the concept as well.  Craig's been providing even more evidence of this phenomenon also.  And what's truly amazing is how wildly idiotic the progressive politicians and their policies are that it's beyond me to make sense of how anyone can continue supporting them.

What people don't understand is that the support of Trump is significantly based on the lack of options. He is the only president we have, and he's doing many good things. It's possible to disagree with specific policies, while still generally supporting him as president. He was the only option when he ran against Harris for anyone who was not committed to vote DFL no matter who the candidate was. While I may not agree with everything he says or does, I'll support him because he is POTUS.

The hilarious things about this is that these criticisms come from people who engage in exactly the behavior they bitch about. They'll vote for a guy with an actual NAZI tattoo on his chest, while bitching about Trump being "Hitler". They'll support all sorts of ideas designed to subvert our existing representative republic governance, and try to install a "democracy".

So many of them are simply lemmings with no actual, fact based, reasons for why they vote the way they do.

"What people don't understand is that the support of Trump is significantly based on the lack of options. He is the only president we have, and he's doing many good things."

I would argue that the bulk of his support is because he's done and continues to do many good things. After all, it's what we all want from our elected officials. Of course it's true that the list of options was small, and in the general, there were no better options. But that's always the case in elections, and who is chosen is, in part, due to that reality as it's perceived by the voters.

I would also clarify that support depends on what's being asked. That is, I support every American president (barring any proven to be acting criminally) over leaders of other nations. That's like a default position. But I don't support bad policy and thus won't support a president in pushing them.

Conversely, however, is the rejection of this guy without due cause. I know certain low intellect people will fall back on his well known womanizing in his past, as well as on the myths regarding his business practices, racism/misogyny/"abuse of power" and the like. But those are in lieu of any real opposition to his policies, the degree to which any is offered are similar corruptions of reality.

Unlike the lefties, support for Trump for many of us was lacking before he won the nomination for the 2016 election. But, also unlike the lefties, as we don't base our support one way or the other on the frivolous, superfluous and irrelevant, his actual work as president quickly proved the risk we took in voting for him over Clinton was far lower than we believed it to be. In my case, he's done nothing to change that. I don't expect him to bat 1.000, but for the most part he's not fallen all that short of doing so, and remains well worthy of my support, and should be for half those who continue to refuse to give any to him. The rest are too stupid, ignorant, evil or a combination of all three, which is why they can't bring themselves to remove their heads from their asses.

Hello Art,

I just came by to tell you something that I thought would you would chuckle at: Feodor's blog is no longer up and running. It's either been taken down or deleted. HAHAHAHA!!!

"While I may not agree with everything he says or does, I'll support him because he is POTUS."

If the standard is “support whoever happens to be president,” then I assume you were an enthusiastic Obama supporter as well. Consistency matters, after all.

Marshal Art said...

Speaking for myself, it's one thing to say "I don't support what the Jackass-In-Chief is doing" while at the same time showing support for that very same jackass in other ways. Think of it like this: "He's OUR jackass. YOU don't get to crap on him."

With regard to our current POTUS, some are loath to give full support to him because of his character flaws, which are are generally inflated beyond their true significance. When he first threw his hat into the ring (does he even own a hat?), I was absolutely opposed to someone like Trump being our president. I was certain we could offer better from the right side of the ideological divide. When he won the primary, I hate to pick him over Clinton, because she's a worthless hag who would make Obama look like an Apostle of Christ. So I held my nose, punched his ballot circle and whaddya know? He turned out to be awesome in the role. He accomplished so much of such great benefit to ALL Americans that more than any other two-term president in my lifetime, including possibly Ronald Reagan, he was more than deserving of a second consecutive term.

Some say it was a good thing the 2020 was stolen, because now we can see how bad it can get. But this ignores the fact that an abject and proven moron like Kamala Harris, or Gavin Newsome or J.B. Pritzker...or freaking Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez...they are all seen as viable candidates for the incredibly stupidest people in America, and God knows there are enough of them to put a dumbshit in office again.

So of course I fully support Trump, but I would also defend any of those assholes against foreign criticisms of what assholes they are, even if I agree with the foreigners regarding the stupidity of those assholes' policies. Again...they're OUR assholes. They don't get to call them assholes.

My brother might be an asshole, but tread softly regarding how YOU describe him.

That's what support for an Obama, Biden or whomever looks like from me.

feo's site exists in order to give the world the opportunity to see just what a stellar intellect he is. As the world doesn't truly see him as such, he has no motivation to keep his blog alive.

But that's where he goes wrong. While I enjoy that people read and comment on my blog, I don't suppose just having it will result in people flocking to it.

What is a blog? It's a log...a Web log...a journal, the description of which is merely the combination/contract of "web log". It's a way to express one's feelings about whatever, and if it attracts attention, if it draws response and interest, so be it. If not, so be it. Either way, I'm good. Prior to the internet, I'd often jot down my thoughts in a typical notebook, which often would just be tossed at some point. The point was to put my thoughts in writing for the cathartic benefits. So that would continue if no one ever again posted a response to anything I post.

feo doesn't think that way. feo needs to be worshiped as an intellectual giant. With his last iteration, I think he blocked me after my first response to a post of his. Now, he doesn't care to have you respond to his less than intellectual intellectualism. That just doesn't work for him. If respondents aren't going to express awe and wonder at his incredibleness, he sees no point in going on. Now, he'll just revert to drive by posts where he'll drop his thoughts on wholly unrelated issues. It kills him that no one cares what his arrogant, condescending ass thinks.

"My brother might be an asshole, but tread softly regarding how YOU describe him."

Um, no. It's more like be care how you analyze what others say. I wasn't trying to be serious to begin with.

Art,

Unless I'm mistaken, the last few Presidential elections pitted Trump against various worse options. The simple reality is that much of Trump's support, especially early, was based on the very lack of options as you note. In this context, I'm referring to electoral support of Trump as opposed to general support.

I'm confused, where exactly did I suggest that "enthusiastic support" was the standard. Accuracy matters after all.

For the record, I support and respect the office and the holder of that office and that support has crossed party lines. That I disagree with various policies, across party lines, doesn't mean that I don't support the office and the office holder.

Craig said...

I suspect that the fact that none of us engaged with him there and ignored the crap he spewed played a role. From what I saw the content was direct, personal, attacks on us seemingly intended to force us to engage. We didn't he crawled back under the rock he's been under.

Marshal Art said...

Craig,

Some of your previous referred to comments by Jesse, while the response is addressed to me.

But as you remind that accuracy matters, I'd like to comment to that end. "Support" and "respect" are not synonyms and in regard to how we think of whoever the president is, I want to clarify my position. I do NOT support every president, nor do I respect them. I respect the office and the fact that buffoons like Biden or Obama sadly happen to be our president. Respect demands I oppose any attempts to harm them and to concede that many felt them worthy to hold the office whether I agree or not. I will treat the with the respect the office of the presidency demands should I be in their presence and not scream at them before being escorted out of the Capitol during State of the Union addresses.

But that's as far as it goes for those who don't do their duties as president. If I can't support their policies or proposals, if their actions have a negative impact, I can't respect them as president just because they happen to BE president. That means I'm not respecting the man who is president, which is different from respecting the fact that the man IS president. It's not as difficult a distinction to grasp despite my inability to fully articulate it.

Marshal Art said...

I can only go by what others say in the manner they said it. "be care how you" is easily interpreted to mean "be careful", but it's an example of how the manner in which one expresses one's self might impact how one infers meaning from what is said.

Regardless, and regardless of your intentions as to not being serious, it nonetheless compelled me to speak my mind on "supporting/respecting" a president.

Craig said...

I'm not aware of anyone suggesting that support and respect are synonyms in this context. Support itself can be used in at least two ways in politics. It can refer to campaigning for or donating to a particular candidate during an election cycle, or regarding agreement with specific policies While I did not support P-BO for POTUS, I did support the policy regarding the capture of Bin Laden. Similarly, I supported Trump, but didn't necessarily support some of his policies/actions in his first term. I am not so stubbornly partisan that I wil not support good policies or oppose bad policies based on the party of the president.

As far as respect goes, I respect the office or position of POTUS, regardless of whether or not I respect the office holder. We recently saw the owners of Slaps BBQ get slapped around for attending an event at the WH and having Trump say nice things about them. IMO it's pretty simple. If I was invited to meet a president, I would absolutely go out of respect for the office. When I met Al Franken and other MN legislators in DC, I showed then the respect that their office deserved regardless of my personal feelings about the individual

Has Feodor tried posting anything here recently? Has he seemed to let up at all?

Jesse Albrecht said...

Art,

I was wondering what you thought of these articles:

In the last week or so, and there's some anonymous person who might be him as well who makes an attempt. I just delete them.

Marshal Art said...

If these are the same two you sent me in an email a week or so ago, I began with the second and haven't finished it, as it's long. I'll likely start over at the point.
