They say part of Trump's appeal to his base is his big-man macho act.

But he is really such a whiny, little baby.
Always crying about how bad he is being treated.
Amazing how blind they are.

[SWBTATTReg]

1. I agree w/ you. Such a whinny, spoiled brat...w/ nothing positive about him at all. NT

[A HERETIC I AM]

2. He's an effective conman

And evidence of that is the millions he has conned that either aren't aware that they have been conned or would flat out deny he has conned them.

[CousinIT]

3. Yep. The old alpha-male, knuckle dragging, chest-beating

pussy-grabbing, card-carrying member of the MRA militia act (except it isn't an act. He truly is a horrible asshole).

[edhopper]

4. But he is always whining and complaining

tough act is just an act and he can't keep it going.

[jimlup]

5. Yes that is true

and I add that they are just too stupid to ever grasp that truth.

[LuckyCharms]

6. Trump only appears strong to weak people.

[Mr.Bill]

9. Yes.

A weak man's idea of a strong man.

A stupid man's idea of a smart man.

A poor man's idea of a rich man.

[bdamomma]

15. so true

and those people who are inadequately educated and who want a "daddy". So sick.

[Dulcinea]

27. Agreed.

Dolt 45 is their daddy figure who they think will protect them from a scary, rapidly changing world.

[paleotn]

16. Bingo.

[2naSalit]

7. I suspect they are hypnotized

by subliminal messaging on Fuxnooz. And perhaps on FB too. So many people looking at their screens all the time...

[bucolic_frolic]

8. Trump knows

squeaky wheel gets the grease

That's his secret and he knows few can pull it off. No MAGAtzis could.

10. The Mini Macho Mango Maga Man-Baby

11. Fake old tough guy. Candy ass half a wiseguy.

His daddy bought him his button. Such a physical coward.

[smirkymonkey]

12. The thing that is so strange to me is what many weak men (and insecure, dominated right-wing women)

perceive to be "manliness" just screams of insecurity to me. The whole macho posturing, he-man bullshit thing just screams "I am so insecure in my manhood that I have to put on an act to prove to others that I am not afraid of being perceived as weak and effeminate or sexually inadequate".

They might as well be wearing a sign that says that they are insecure "beta" incel cucks. Ok, that's kind of a joke, because I don't believe in that crap, but they do, and that which they are trying so hard to avoid is exactly what they are projecting to women and secure men. It's almost laughable because they harder they try to appear "manly", the less manly they appear.

Real men don't have to try so hard. They just are who they are. They don't have to "try" to be anything other than what they are and secure women can sense it a mile away. It is so obvious.

13. The contradictions make one's head spin

( ya gotta typo in you post's subject )

[edhopper]

22. Thanks

The=They, I am really bad at proofreading.

[paleotn]

14. They're just like him.

White male macho wannabes with self esteem issues. Privilege was once the only thing they had going for them. Without that, they're hopelessly mediocre. The usual "boot strap" crowd.

[Unrepentant Fenian]

17. No doubt. Read a gun or conservatard website and...

You'll see how they puff themselves up. They really think they are smarter, work harder make more money than anyone who isn't a white, heterosexual, gun owning, conservative, Christian. Who, according to them are the most victimized people in not only the US, but the whole world. They are stupid enough to think that tRump is one of them. Trump really isn't very bright, but he's smart enough to know what stupid people want to hear.

[Initech]

18. Yup, the good old boys shit.

That has got to go.

[Progressive Jones]

19. It's in the DNA of "certain types" nt

[Initech]

20. Like Kavanaugh? He fits the stereotype.

[ChoppinBroccoli]

21. But He's So Quick To Back Down When Confronted

Remember early on when that guy rushed the stage at a rally and he was busy trying to hide under the podium? Also, when he attended that black church and tried to give a political speech. One of the church members walked up to him and told him in no uncertain terms that what he was doing was inappropriate, and he was visibly shaken. His eyes were wide and afraid, he backed away with his hands up. He was clearly afraid. If he had been a dog, he would have rolled over and shown his belly.

That's what our nominee has to do to him in the debates. Go after him in a show of strength and back him down in front of the TV cameras. Like if he tries to pull that crap he did last time where he was wandering around the stage while Hillary was answering, our nominee should turn around and say in a very gruff tone, "Hey, GRANDPA, your chair is over there. Sit down while I'm talking."

Show his supporters what a pussy he is deep down and you'll score more points than just by humiliating him with facts. His supporters don't understand all that fancy talk, and won't listen anyway. A show of force is all they understand.

23. Many suspend disbelief because they enjoy or feel the need for the act.

[SMC22307]

24. Of course it is. They did the same with "rancher" Dubya...

versus cycling and windsurfing Kerry. Nothing they're doing is new. It's up to us to try to open their eyes, no matter how exhausting.

[Wounded Bear]

25. You noticed that, did you?

[KentuckyWoman]

26. I really don't care about the psychiatry.

Just make him go away.

[samnsara]

28. seriously? i find him soft, pink, pudgy and hairless like a little maggot..

definitely not my idea of whatever macho is supposed to look like..

[matt819]

29. How did he describe al Baghdadi's death?

Whimpering?

Screaming?

Crying?

Projection much?

[Poiuyt]

30. The brains of conservatives are wired differently than ours. Seriously

An enlarged amygdala gives them an exaggerated sense of fear and they seek out authoritarian leaders.

[evertonfc]

31. itbisva big part

It's actually a big part even outside his cult with blue collar white guys. It's one of many reasons Joe Biden will whip his ass in the General. Joe can neutralize this appeal
