Identifying a Trump voter.

Belly and white legs.

Why are you Obessessed about trump supporters. Why do you care what they think and why they voted for him in the first place. I don't think they are busy wondering why you voted for Hillary.

[quote]Identifying a Trump voter...

seems like a colossal waste of time.

Because I hate hypocrites and want them out of my life r2. Gone!

White male, drives a truck.

Like ex-cult members, they're never quite 'free'. Weak-minded to begin with, they're vulnerable to relapsing. A perplexed look in their eyes, waiting for the next charismatic leader to emerge to tell them what to do.

fat, stupid, bigoted and greedy psychopaths, just like their idol

Pickup truck with a dog in the back, parked on the grass in front of the house. Unfinished woodworking project in the driveway. Empty beer cans in trash can, not in recycling bin.

R4. Are you sure they are in your life or your imagination. How can you want someone that was never in your life gone. It won't be that difficult to know if a family member or friends voted for trump.

I don't think working-class white men in trucks is a solid lead. But I would say a willingness to believe various conspiracy theories, remaining silent when someone makes an anti-dump remark, and making positive comments about the current economy.

Not all trump supporters are rednecks that drive a truck. Some live in urban areas and in the suburbs. The stereotype is laughable. I have met educated new yorkers with careers who voted for trump.

r10, i second that

LBH, for a lot of you, the only people 'in your life' are posters on DL and various SM, pornstars and instahos and neighbors you already avoid.

It's ok, guys. You've got this covered! 👍

sudden interest in popular country music

I have a conservative friend who gets very quiet when we are slamming the Orange Menace. I think she voted for Trump and is always doing "research" about immigrations. Claiming Americans will fill those jobs and bitching about taxes.

See R2.

Have gun stickers on their cars.

Very useful thread. Too much time and energy has been spent worrying over the motivation of these dullards but little focus has been placed as to identifying them before its too late.

Not a definitive list but a good "field guide" to identifying stealth Deplorables.

1. they have fallen for con artists in the past, usually MLM schemes.

2. Have a sketchy employment history and a history of leaving jobs in a melodratic manner

3. Usage of the term "ALL Lives matter"

4. They are apt to stay silent when the subject of evil republicans come up or are apt to say something like "They are ALL crooked and corrupt"

5. Have been tricked or conned out of money or valuables in an intimate relationship ( usually someone met online)

6 usage of the pharse "at my work"

7. when the subject of the 2016 election comes up they make some kind of comment like " I didn't like either choice" That one is pretty much a direct confession.

8 Angry. All deplorbs are angry. At what they aren't sure, but they are all angry. Some are less overt than others but stratch a deplorable and you will find a rage.

9. Irrationally hate Hillary Clinton. Not just dislike or disagree with, but you are looking for signs they were mommy triggered by Hillary Clinton. This is a tricky one because you might think you are talking to a Deporable but in fact have encountered a Jill Stien supporter or a Bernie Or Bust Bro or Broette. Run from all of these.

10. Have a history of bad judgement. They are rarely correct about anything. Have no gut check reliability. Like you if you make them feel less stupid and angry.

I would honestly be curious about that r15. Does she think people who hire illegal immigrants should be arrested, or only the immigrants? I would love to know that.

As long as they are getting a few extra dollars in their pockets as a result of tax cuts they don’t care about the rest of humanity

They’re my in-laws.

Look up their voter registration data online, if available. I'm fortunate to live on the lovely island of Manhattan where only 65K dicks and cunts voted for the daughterfucker. If you avoid the upper east side, and wall street, you might hardly ever run in to one. He even lost the Repug primary in Manhattan to John Kasich. The 2 Magats that I know voted for him, now both deny that they did.

Both are hispanic. One came here illegally, paid an American bitch to marry him. He's obsessed with white circumcised dicks, and is against gay marriage, an he peek English lie diss. The other is just a selfish,dumb cunt.

[quote] As long as they are getting a few extra dollars in their pockets as a result of tax cuts they don’t care about the rest of humanity

r18, back again. This post inspired me.

11 th sign you might be talking to a Deplorable: They THINK they are much richer than they are. "Wealthy" deplorbs often think that, because they have a couple of hundred thousand dollars in equity, that they are the 1/100 of the 1 % benefiting from Drumps tax cuts. So sign number 11: They THINK they are gettiing extra tax benefit but if a few years they will actually be paying more than ever in taxes.

Prone to believe conspiracy theories.

R24. Like liberals are not prone to believe in conspiracy theories. Some post on DL is filled with conspiracies.

In my neighborhood, it's the upper-upper-middleclass families who put ostentatiously Christian-themed Christmas displays out in front of their manses every winter.

Obese with bad dental hygiene.

Once we identify them, is there a way we can sterilize them so they can't procreate?

Beep beep

Frau Trump voters say it’s all because they love babies.

They’ll tell you they voted for Stein but obsess over guns and bullshit like that. Less than 1% of the people in my town voted for Stein and I’ve heard “Well I couldn’t bring myself to vote for either Clinton or Trump”. Riiiiiight bitch, so who are the 47% in my town who voted for him because no one admits it,

Just look around, they're EVERYWHERE.

I've met two gay (white) guys since I moved to my rural county three years ago; both of them have rainbow flags on their trucks and both of them voted for Trump.

Just sayin'.

[quote] Why are you Obessessed about trump supporters.

Poor grasp of grammar and capitalization.

There's an angry Trumpbitch right at r2 (pictured below).

I wish that the Democrats would commission polls that asked Trump supporters about other topics, so we would have a more complete understanding of the people that hate us, that we are supposed to care about. For example:

"Do you believe that homo sapiens should have the right to marry?". I guarantee that 40 percent would say, no.

"Do you believe that the Clinton's have paid to murder their enemies?". 80 percent, yes. ] "Do you believe that Caucasian people are more intelligent than other races?" 90 percent, yes.

I'm reminded of the ESL teacher who was fired after receiving complaints that he had been teaching homonyms!

they tend not to be here

R34. You have never heard of electronic keyboard acting up. Bitch please.

R35. At least we know what you look like and stop projecting your inner hideous face unto others.

R31, it may have been Russian hacking. Seriously. I find Trumpers to be fearful as hell. Scared trees will call on their home so they cut them all down. Frightened that the dog food they feed is now poisonous. Freaking out about local news and national news story. Alerting the neighborhood that blacks are driving through. Sure that Sharia law is right around the corner. Carrying a gun to the grocery store. Thinking the Mexican kid mowing the lawn is a rapist. Voting for Trump. Pussies and cowards.

Delusional old women who want their pussies grabbed.

People who didn't go to college and can't name the 3 branches of government.

Increasingly vocal and irate about the (perceived) marginalization and victimization of the straight, white, middle-aged male. The struggle is real, y'all.

The single most defining characteristic of a deplorable is energized stupidity. They are rage junkies who, despite every conceivable advantage are preoccupied with grievances and self serving narratives of alleged oppression

They are prone to con artists (Like Drumph) because they are driven by feelings they themselves don't begin understand. Along comes Drumph or some other flim flam artist and feeds them the following message

"It’s not your fault, your not crazy: there is a plot to keep your greatness under wraps and you have no responsibility for it: I however have the answer, give me your vote, money, trust, keys to your car, and I will correct the situation in the world that has been holding your magnificent self back, I get you, I hear you. I will fix it"

THIS is what they want: To have their perceived superiority and victim status affirmed and they will open their pockets to anyone who can deliver it.

They can be relatively prosperous or (most often) poor but as long as they are harboring this emotional agenda, Drumpf or any other con artist will be able to play them.

Nobody can wake them up. They have to rouse themselves out of it. We need to ignore them and focus on turnout because there are more of us than there are of him.

r43, here again.

Just want to add that the other defining characteristic of a deplorable is being a bully. They percieve power as the successful belittlement of another person or organization. That IS the win for them, they don't care if they burn down the house because they are so angry at who they think owns the house.

Hillary was 100% correct in identifying this core of support for Trump in 2016 and the media allowed it to become a negative. We were pretty naive back then.

The media made Trump. It was nonstop free coverage for his incoherent snake oil shilling ass. Their ratings when up 38% and they LOVE him for it. I'm not sure why he's biting the hand that literally handed him the presidency (the only thing keeping him out of jail). It's as stupid as him leaving all those bills to city governments who clean up after and protect his gathering of the deplorables rallies. I mean, it's a swath of giant unpaid bills.

[quote] Bernie Or Bust Bro or Broette.

It's a Bernadette.

I have a few good friends who voted for Trump and almost all of my family (brother, niece and hubby, uncle and aunt and my cousins (except for one). From this sample of people, here is my list:

1) Baptists (my family only). The friends are Catholics.

2) Own guns and get very upset when you mention gun control

3) Are afraid to order products online because they fear that their credit card and personal information will be compromised (family only). My friends seem to be okay with ordering online.

4) Fox News is their primary source of information. They also believe everything that is posted on FB or published by their right wing fake news sources.

5) Many of them cut and pasted the FB message that pictures that they posted to FB would used for something and they needed to post a statement to protect their pictures. Also the one about seeing the same 25 people's posts.

6) Against all abortions regardless of the circumstances. Don't even mentioned Planned Parenthood.

7) Seem to have an attitude of "I got mine", fear of immigrants (especially Muslims), have no friends who have money issues and prefer to hand around only with people who think like they do.

8) Think all "Dems" want the U.S. to become a socialist country and to eliminate capitalism.

r47 9) use the words "colored, oriental, beaners" as regular words.

10) have an aggresive attitude toward all women

11) Identify self-worth with objects and how much they cost.

^^^ Excellent synopsis, R47, and good additions, R48.

Sadly, my experiences, too.

Fucking terrified of Antifa. Love the police. Regularly say, "I was spanked as a child and I turned out fine". They are visibly not fine.

You can also identify them in casual conversation. When you go to lunch and they complain that "these people" should not make 15 dollars an hour. If they pray before they eat any meal, you can assume they are praying to the orange cheeto. Bring up football if they say " I don;t watch the NFL anymore" or "I only watch college ball now" You can bet they are a Trump supporter.

R51. Like religious democrats don't pray before eating. Your stereotype of a typical trump supporter is laughable and ridiculous.

Low self-esteem.

[quote] our stereotype of a typical trump supporter is laughable and ridiculous.

Comments like the one above are a clear deplorable tell. They don't react well to any kind of criticism ( much like their big orange asshole leader) so they revert to calling any and all critics "laughable " or "ridiculous" for believing there are unifying traits among this class of dullards.

In short Drump supporters are deluded bullies with a persecution complex and a working tolerance for racism and white supremecist concepts.

Every. Last. one of them.

How do I know? Drump has not delivered on anything other than bullying, deluded racist rhetoric with a leaning toward white supremecist tropes.

He has LITERALLY DONE NOTHING ELSE

The fears of pet food being poisonous, and one's personal identifying and financial information made vulnerable to data breaches are not right-wing paranoia.

The Kroger-brand cat food we tried gave our elderly cat seizures. We're left-wing, live in a very "blue" and progressive city, in a blue and progressive state. The hackers who breached Equifax's servers and databases did not make a distinction of political preference.

Being obsessed with materialism, eager for confrontation on any subject (Q: "What's the emissions rating on this scooter?" Trump voter: "Why the hell do you care?"), preference for "gut," "feel," in their vocabulary over "mind" and "think," are identifying traits of Trump voters.

If they think Planned Parenthood is only about abortions and birth control, and not about affordable health screenings and examinations for women, if they're convinced FOX News is a legitimate news channel and that only from that not-actually-licensed-by-the-FCC channel does 'real news' originate, they're Trump voters.

I have never seen a democrat pray before eating food. Granted my exposure is limited to every restaurant I have never been in but true I am sure some democrats pray to jesus to bless them vittles.

Disclosure alert: I am diagnosed with *quiet* BPD (I don't take my emotional turmoil out on others, only on myself and I don't self-mutilate) and I am as liberal as they come. Maybe that's the *quiet* part. Trumpists seems to be very loud, I am not.

Trump voters (male and female) are sexually aroused by this.

He's wearing Ivanka's panties. Funny that several of the teenagers that he raped said that "He told me I reminded him of his daughter". Stormy Daniels said the same thing. HAHA. I love America. I love a president who rapes little girls

Trump voters want this:

I don't think we need to describe them, or sum them up so to speak for purposes of sussing them out. In my experience they readily identify themselves, and usually quite proudly.

R64 not where I live in MA. Small town that voted for Trump over Clinton. No one is out and proud Trump. Everyone “couldn’t bring themselves to vote” or “voted for Stein” - she got less than 1% of the votes in my deplorable town so I call bs on that.

White

Baby Boomer

Probably didn't go to College

Blames Obama for increasing racism, or

Didn't like Obama or Michelle, but couldn't quite give you clear reasons why. You might hear things like "smug" or "uppity" or "elitist"

Wants the government to keep their hands off their Medicare

Was a loud member of the Tea Party, but is oddly silent now as Trump's spending leads us towards a trillion dollar deficit.

Kept screeching about Benghazi, but couldn't locate it on a map if their life depended on it.

One more...

Thinks Melanie is "classy" and elegant.

unapologetic racism and blame everyone else for their shortcomings. Rageaholics.

Winces or burns when asked how much sanity, intelligence, public service history and character of a candidate factor into his or her voting decision.

Another trump supporter. Born and raised in NYC and graduated from Lehman studied public health, worked in non profit for years and now retired. The person does volunteer work with kids. Husband graduated from nyu with a degree in psychology and he is a shrink with his own private practice. This couple is not your typical trumpettes you will meet at his rallies. They both like trump for different reasons.

R65 I suppose it is different here in Chicago, as They are the minority in a blue state. The city itself tends toward very liberal and Democrat controlled everything. I know several, they make their opinions known, and wish to argue them, and defend Trump. My excuse shuts them down that I'm an expat, and not interested in becoming a citizen. I wish they were more quiet here. They can be awfully hyper defensive.

donates money to the heritage foundation, listens to AM radio, watches fox news. They are only interested in themselves, not the rest of Americans, a sign of a sociopath.

[r70] what are their reasons? Also remember, he Nazi worked with kids. They were nice to the german white kids, not so nice to the Jewish kids. Working with kids, sounds good, but may not be at all.

They have a childlike worshiip of alpha males: bosses; coaches; religious figures; fathers; cult leaders; sports figures. Big Daddy will make everything better.

And if he's mean, cruel, abusive, crude, lying, cheating, stupid, bullying, hateful... that's okay. You should respect your elders.

If they say," I should have went," or Tom and myself are going to the store," they are Trump voters. Or, if they organize raffles like this.

They seem to blame Obama for every problem in human history. The do not seem to understand the the trump tax scam was the tax bill that increased their taxes. They seem to think that screaming incoherently, during a discussion or debate that they started, makes them the auto-winner.

My brother-in-law threw away his MAGA hat last year. He says Trump is no longer his president. I am hopeful there are many more out there.

When they’re presented with a fully verifiable fact that goes against Trump, they scream “it’s fake news!” Yet, they’ll gladly cite the “fake news” if it’s favorable of Trump. Of course, they watch Fox News all day and into the night. When criticized about their Fox News fetish, they vehemently deny watching it much, but they still use the Fox News talking points.

Conspiracists, hate the Clintons, and Obama. When you make trump jokes they stay silent or just smile. Care about status and money. Worship the Kardashians.

Trump supporters cannot weigh information/discern complex information correctly, or they are complete sociopaths. The first group can be easily manipulated and the later do not care, unless they are personally effected.

they do not understand what the word racist mean.

R81 Does "racist mean" refer to a noun or an adjective?

Some look like Mr. Burns. I think Homer voted for Trump and is now embarrassed.

I've been able to tell, especially if I knew them before Trump. Over the years they've acted and spoke in a racist matter, even if it was mild and occasional. They usually also seemed to hate the poor, especially if they're getting government assistance of any kind, even if they are not well to do themselves.

Then there are those who just look it. I mean look at most Trump voters. You really can tell just by the disgusting sight of them. We've seen the pictures here.

Keep it up, bro. That’s the kind of elitist crap that helped sink Hillary in 2016.

Zero empathy (except for their own kids), don't want or have much engagement with anyone unlike them, evangelicals think all Jewish people are going to Hell (now there's some REAL anti-semitism for you). Think they have been gypped out of things by the Obama govt even though they have three cars (including a pickup) in the driveway and a two story home.

Most of you have no idea what you're talking about. What an isolated world you must live in if you believe half the stuff you've posted above.

Go on R87, tell us how it really is then; from your perspective that is.

R87 I think just two people posted most of this thread. It's mostly adolescent insults and one-thought-dummy-spits.

Come December, they will be the ones angrily proclaiming, "Merry Christmas, because we can say that now!"

Ditto, #86. They have a built-in hatred for Jews , enough though most have never met one.

Ahhh yes r85, they would've surely voted Hillary if only she'd licked their assed some more. Trump voters are garbage. They think they're smart. What they lack in intelligence they make up for with their stupidity.

They hurl the slur "elitist" yet believe that THEY are chosen by god and the the "elite" are going to spend eternity in Hell.

R73. The couple is not nazis. Your narrow ignorant stereotype is stupid that it won't warrant a reply. But I have to clarify your bullshit opinion.

They used to call woman who wanted fair treatment, "feminazis" but now Nazism isn't shameful to them so they just call them cunts and dykes.

They are very vulnerable to con men, especially the slick one dealing in real estate from NYC. They've been hussled by mechanics, car salesmen, preachers, butchers, banks, and fortune-tellers all their lives

Grammar, ladies. The couple *ARE* not Nazis, not *IS* not Nazis.

If not supporting Trump is elitist, then consider me a proud elitist!

R97 But they is Nazis! They is Nazis I say!

R97 The Nazis is coming! The Nazis is coming!

[quote]If not supporting Trump is elitist, then consider me a proud elitist!

"Trump managed to raise $12 million between Ross's fundraiser and a reception hosted by real estate developer Joe Farrell, according to the New York Post. Tickets sold for as much as $100,000."

Missing teefs.

missing teefs and treasonous regalia

R30 Trumptards love Zygotes. They couldn't care less about babies. They'd rather stab their eyes out than allow a working poor mother to have a few foodstamps to feed her children.

Trumptards = we have no imagination greater than theirs! Let’s try, girl. We’ve got to be on our A game

Usually people who aren't very well spoken complaining about civility, or about some minor faux pas by a Democratic office holder out of the blue. Especially those who make constant "both sides!" arguments. Yawn.

low reading comprehension, as evidence in this thread.

The lower classes have a schizophrenic relationship with things. Pro-military, anti-cop; pro-Trump, anti-Elites; confederate flag/U.S. flag; racist, but they'll enjoy movies and TV with blacks in them; pro-Christian, but break the Commandments daily; anti-Government, but have their hand out always for freebie$.

I've seen this all my life.

Fat, unruly hair, gaseous, moronic.

Evil behomeths! The Sons of Belezebub!

Non-college women are finally figuring out DJT won't be grabbing their old, stinky pussies.

Sarah heading to Fox won't change that.

They love REAL men who take what they want, even if it's a 13 year old girl and corroborating witnesses.

The lawsuit alleged a number of charges against both Trump and Epstein, including rape, sexual abuse, assault and battery, and false imprisonment. Johnson said that when she was 13, Epstein lured her to parties at his apartment by promising “money and a modeling career.”

Johnson said Trump had sexual contact with her at four of those parties, including tying her to a bed and violently raping her in a “savage sexual attack.” The lawsuit said Johnson “loudly pleaded” with Trump to stop, but that he responded by “violently striking Plaintiff in the face with his open hand and screaming that he would do whatever he wanted.”

After that, Trump allegedly threatened to harm or kill Johnson and her family if she ever told anyone. Johnson said Trump told her he could make them “disappear” like Maria — a 12-year-old girl Johnson says Trump also forced her to have sexual contact with, and whom Johnson hadn’t seen since that encounter.

Johnson also accused Epstein of raping her “anally and vaginally despite her loud pleas to stop,” and that he “attempted to strike Plaintiff about the head with his closed fists while he angrily screamed that he, Defendant Epstein, rather than Defendant Trump, should have been the one who took Plaintiff’s virginity.”

The court filings also included a statement from “Tiffany Doe,” another anonymous woman, who said that she witnessed the rapes and procured the young girls for the parties, and “Joan Doe,” a classmate of the victim who said she was told about the rapes during the following school year. Tiffany Doe said that Epstein and Trump knew that Johnson was 13.

Chick-Fil-A patron

A stunning ability to compartmentalize and ignore anything that doesn't fit within their worldview

Selfish as can be, no concern for anyone outside of their immediate circle

No intellectual curiosity whatsoever

Hypocrite who will handwave away any wrongdoing by a Repug while demonizing liberals and minorities for relatively minor offenses

R116, they need to check Chik Fil A's buns for ergot poisoning. These Q believing nutcases are tripping and probably on the scizophrenia spectrum. A thing that I'm pretty sure exists.

Claims they know professionals who voted for Trump, for "reasons" they won't disclose. Could be reasons of: Israel above all, sympathy with men who pimp female teens, racism, misogyny, one's imagination is at work because "reasons." Claims that the nation would be equally or worse off if Trump did not win, champions electoral votes over popular vote.

Apparently, every Jew is a Trump supporter. That does not bode well for the rest of his base, or the Jews...or anyone really. I mean if he can unite the Nazis and the Jews he might be the second coming.

If possible, uglier on the inside than on the outside.

Says things like "I didn't like either of them" and "Hillary lies" when you ask why they voted for Trump. When confronted with the fact that Trump lies about EVERYTHING and it's proven, they say "all politicians lie."

Each and every one of them is evil.
