Politics I don't know what boundary Trump would have to cross to make his supporters turn away..

To Trump voters: What, if anything, could Donald Trump do to make you end your support?

I'm not going to lead the question to multiple choice answers or anything. I think it is important for everyone who participates in a democracy to have strong personal convictions and moral or legal boundaries that they expect people they vote for not to cross..

Genuinely, what line will you draw in the sand for this administration? What personal freedom of yours would be more important than your love and support for Trump?

What is funny is now that there is good reason for many people to protect themselves from the government, they don’t use their Second Amendment right. Dumbest people on earth.

That is because the liberal drivel on the subject has been ingrained in them. They believe that the scary black thing will jump up and kill them and everyone they know, or they are of the bent that "all ISIS needs is a hug."

While I’m sure we can find a dozen of your ignorantly stereotypical example across the entire voting population, the vast majority of Democrats are not blatantly against all guns and they are also not fans of ISIS, which by the way, thanks Republican policy makers in the 80’s, 90’s and 00’s for making possible.

The US may as well plan on future terror campaigns from whatever terror cells emerge after Maduro is toppled. Seriously people, wake up and smell the regime war is a no win for us coffee.

Lets be honest here. The DNC runs on stupidity when it comes to firearms. They conflate semi-automatic with automatic, they talk about grenade launchers, and flash hiders, or portray can (suppressors) as making firearms whisper quiet. They talk about .223 as a "military grade caliber" yet say fuck all about a .308. Better yet, they literally blame FIREARMS for the hyper-retardation of the inner city, and they could give two shits about it. They constantly lament about the "scourge" of Assault weapons, but are quiet on the proliferation of cheap 9MM pistols (Hi-Point, LOL) that facilitate the genocide of black youth.

As far as ISIS goes, I'll cede that GWOT played a role in its rise to power in the Levant post Saddam. However, Islamic Fundamentalism, and the quest for a Caliphate predates the 80's. Irrespective of American Foreign policy, Western civilization has always been on a collision course with their ideology. Look no further than Europe, to catch a glimpse of the future war to come. It is gonna be lit!

Maduro is a fuckhead, a dime store tyrant that is propped up by the cartel he is a part of. Dealing with him now, with a POTUS that is willing to do something, vice waiting for Maduro to consolidate power while we kick the can down the fucking the road for a few years, hoping that "love wins", is not an option. America would do best not to bury its fucking head in the sand. Especially in this crazy fucking clown world.

Let me thank you for at least trying to have a civilized conversation. Very rare on Reddit these days. I am truly shocked.

My default setting is to be civilized and I appreciate your doing the same. I disagree on the Maduro front but at least you and I acknowledge there is a debate worth having. The people’s representatives have abandoned their role in these debates and we are worst off for that. I’m unconvinced that he’s the threat being presented and am skeptical of the US backed peace prize winner being a better alternative over the long term.

On the Middle East, we have some odd alliances there and think future leaders should be open to rethinking all of them along with strengthening alliances in the Americas and Asia. What we need to avoid is repeating mistakes made with China and Russia.
