Trump Supporter: Generally, if the world hates you, you must be doing something right.
Skeptic: Not necessarily. There were people before in history who were hated and who were evil. Trump may be right in some things or good at some things, but he has a bad mouth and a bad attitude about things and if there is any good in him, you don't see it anyway. I think he's antagonizing the terrorists and militants more in some ways.
Trump Supporter: True, the world hates some evil people too, but the vitriol being leveled at Trump reminds me of the same that was leveled at Ron Paul, or even Pat Buchanan (although the latter was a little before my time), except to the Nth degree. The reason why people not just dislike, but have a seething hatred of him, generally has less to do with his attitude than with the fact that he represents a more traditional, masculine Christian culture, and that unlike Paul or Buchanan, it's looking like a real possibility that he may actually make it to the White House.
And unlike Bush, Romney, etc., he's not beholden to any vested interests. So an unholy alliance of cultural Marxists and corporate interests are conspiring to stop Trump at any cost, even if it means subverting the democratic will of the American people. (Not that they ever cared much for that...)
Trump may be a bit of a blowhard, but he's the best of the lot. It's kind of sad that that's the case, but it is what it is.

I think this Trump Supporter (found on Facebook) speaks for all the Trump supporters on CathInfo.
This man (and many other Trads) really thinks Trump is up there with Pat Buchanan or Ron Paul, only Trump is better because he's able to get 40% or 50% of the vote rather than 10 or 20%. So Trump is a more realistic version of one of those awesome, marginalized, super conservative "dream" candidates.
And of course he dismisses all the lies and outrageous behavior as being "a bit of a blowhard". Uh...yeah.
While we're making gross understatements, Hillary Clinton would disagree with some of Hillaire Belloc's beliefs. The Illuminati have some un-Catholic beliefs. I and my 5 girls would have a difficult time winning a game of basketball vs. a professional NBA basketball team*. And Hitler had a decent self esteem.
Unbelievable! I can't believe Trads can be so stupid.
*P.S. I don't play basketball, and my girls have never played.

I'm really sorry Matthew, you're right! I can't believe that the last quarter century plus has been wasted by me on studying conspiracy lies regarding world politics. I need to get me a Facebook account so that I can keep myself informed properly. Winston was right! I love "Big Brother" now! Please forgive me.

I'm a Trump supporter, but not because so many neo-cons and a lot of others hate him. It's because he makes a lot of sense (that is, when he's not saying something stupid, childish or immature). Take a look at his latest book, "Crippled America." I like a lot of what he says in the book.
Morally speaking, he's rather scary, but.....it's gonna take someone who is mean and ornery enough to wrest this country away from the Neo-con warhawks. Someone like Dr. Ben Carson, whom I really like, has high moral standards, but he isn't tough enough to take on the neocon rascals. Also, Trump is very supportive of veterans, but not of warmongering, something that I happen to agree with.
The Alex Jones interview is very good, and Trump has a lot of common sense to share in that interview....minus the immature attitude of late.
Some have compared Trump to Hitler, which is quite ridiculous. Hitler was a known violent criminal and ex-con, having served nine months in jail for his part in violent protests, yet he still became the leader of Germany anyway. Trump has no criminal record that we know of. No history of violence.
There have been other non-Catholics who have helped the cause of Christianity, such as the Emperor Constantine, and Pepin the Short. Probably a few others as well. Trump is no saint (far from it). That doesn't mean that he can't start to move this country away from at least some of the evil that it has been involved in.
I could be wrong, of course.

I don't mind it. I would only be really embarrased if he supported one of the democrats.
