Just curious...if and when the the Trump/Russian link comes out, how many of you think that his core base (the deplorables) will still support him?? I know that's what the Florida rally was about, to try and keep them on his side, but do you think they'd truly still defend him if and when a Trump/Russian link comes out? I do!

Yes..they would even question the Intelligence, and just say it's all fake news!

a good number of the hardcore trump fans will support him no matter what. I'm serious when i say this, look what alex jones said "i'm willing to die for trump". They truly believe that Trump has been sent from above to save america from being a dieing nation. I kid you not, I have heard this said. Any negative news that comes out, no matter what, is an attempt by the elites and liberals to maintain the current world order that trump has been sent to destroy. It is really frightening how deranged many are when it comes to Trump.

They have no memory of a time when Putin and Russia was ever a threat to America.
Because what is happening now with their guy Trump is all the history there has ever been or will be.
Now, when they latch onto a new god to lead them about, that they can pray to and salute every morning, they will have a new history - and that new history will be the only history they know. The only history there ever was.
Trump supporters have blamed September 11, 2001 on Obama. There's video out there of this newfangled history. They have simply erased Shrub from their memories and all things bad since 2001 are now Obama's fault.

(2,807 posts)Not even after Trump gets convicted, shamed, and imprisoned. I live in ground central, South Western West Virginia. I've been shocked, and disgusted these past 8 years as they've shit all over Barack Obama. I've been shocked and disgusted the past 2 years as they've froth ed at the mouth regarding their adoration of Donald Trump.
In a sense, Donald Trump is merely the symptom. The disease is the ignorance, fear, hatred, racism et al. of around 35% of all Americans, and a majority of my race, white folk.
