In good faith, I want to ask all the non-Trump voters, what are you most afraid of with a Trump presidency? Maybe I can help alleviate your fears in the comments. Again, in good faith.

I do hear this one a lot. I believe the MSM labels it “threat to democracy” - is your biggest fear that he won’t leave office in 2028?

So the people, including myself, who voted for him, hold the Constitution dearly. Many of us saw the overreach during covid as alarming and want a reset. We would never want someone to upend what we hold dear. If he strays, he’s going against our mandate. We did not elect him because he’s a demagogue. We elected him because we want less government overreach.

the U.S. Constitution addresses providing “aid and comfort” to insurrectionists in Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. This section was added after the Civil War to prevent individuals who had engaged in rebellion against the United States from holding office. Specifically, it states that any person who has taken an oath to support the Constitution and then engages in “insurrection or rebellion” or gives “aid or comfort” to such individuals is disqualified from holding federal or state office.

This. I don’t think anyone can say in good faith that they hold the Constitution dearly and still vote him for him after J6. The question is really about trade offs, and what you’re willing to overlook for perceived gains.

Ah just seeing this one. Yes many people say this. I would say it’s leading argument for people with college degrees. I don’t believe your comment is necessarily asking me to comment on that, though, is it? Do you think I voted for him because he is a lawbreaker? Honest question.

Exactly. I don’t care how many of his voters are kind hearted. We are undoubtably closer to the crumbling of US democracy than we were a week ago. How much closer is the question
