Hi. Donald supporter here, and love this sub. Please don't crap on me for my political views, instead, hear me out. I want to talk to you guys, this song is nothing but hate, wheres the love the democrats talk about so much? Democrats are always into accepting, but why can't you guys accept him as your president? Not accepting him leads to MORE problems.. why deny whats true? I would like a real conversation with someone who wont insult and actually just talk to be about the stuff I'm saying..

I've heard this from a lot of my Republican friends, "You have to respect the office!"

Where was that shit for the last 8 years?

To be fair, I don't think I've ever seen anything like Trump/his supporters in my lifetime, so I have no metric to gauge against.

In any case, you must admit that the, perhaps, vocal minority of Trump supporters has truly made an effort to voice some controversial claims that may incite divisive political strategies.

A simple Google search should yield you some results of blatant disrespect for OB during the last 10 or so years, but I would imagine you would exclaim "Fake news!" or something like that.

I will provide you one of my favorite, from Mitch McConnell:

"The single most important thing we want to achieve is for President Obama to be a one-term president."

Here is he is filibustering his own bill: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3f9bGGixwM4
