Why are liberals so obsessed with Trump’s personality? Why does it matter so much to them? And why are they so easily bothered?

Question

I don’t see why it matters.

Like I’ve got more important things to worry about in my life than the things Trump says which are never even that bad to begin with.

And he’s done a good job as President but they don’t normally seem to really care all that much about how the country as a whole is doing.

Like I find it so dumb how people are so busy complaining about Trump’s personality that they don’t even bother to notice or think about anything else.

I voted for Donald Trump, I voted for Donald Trump because I thought he'd create a better America for everyone but after reading 800 or so pages on Queer Feminist theory I realise how much I've been duped. You gotta understand I come from a small steel town in Pennsylvania if I had known the foundational texts on intersectional theory I would never have chanted "lock her up lock her up!"

We were told Hillary Clinton was the enemy but it's clear now the true enemy is a patriarchal capitalist soceity that maintains its ascendance by making powerful and ambitious women appear threatening only to protect my status in a system purposely designed to benefit CISET white males like myself. Jesus.

Wheñ Donald Trump said that he would make America great again, it's obvious to me now that he was only trying to play off my own complicity and comfort in an unequal social structure that disproportionately strips women and minorities particularly trans and genderqueer people of color of their autonomy and seeks to subjugate and inveterate to an intentionally antagonistic androcratic order. I get that now after I attended a gender-fluid non-binary poetry slam at the Swarthmore. A couple of other guys from work attended it too and now it's all we talk about on the line.

I liked Trump because he tells it like it is but do you know who teally tells it like it is? Judith Butler "Gender is not to culture as sex is to nature; gender is also the discursive/cultural means by which 'sexed nature' or 'A natural sex' is produced and established as prediscursive, prior to culture, a politically neutral surface on which culture acts"

I think anyone personally obsessed with Trump is just stupid. But that includes every one of his supporters. And everybody else should be alarmed as their obsession with propaganda, lies, misinformation, and want/need to tear down the very foundation that American society is built upon. The rest of us had better get obsessed over them. Because we are looking at the result of their religion in the streets of Ukraine.

There were always people more and less interested in politics, but there used to be a clearer distinction. Now, because democrats made politics all about gays and minorities rights to draw the latter group in, we are where we are. Because people who should never get involved with politics in the first place because of their surface level comprehension of the world around them are encouraged to express their opinions and vote. And they do it based on impulses and emotions that are easily manipulated by the media, not on what actually matters for the country. Democrats know that because they created that group of voters and in turn base their politics around social topics that the government should never touch interfere with.

I guess you’re somehow too young to understand professionalism?

Go to a job interview, dodge all of their questions, spell things wrong and talk about something like how you think sexual harassment should be allowed in the work environment instead.

When they tell you to gtfo, ask them why.

You’ll have your answer.

They cannot defeat him on the issues. In the 4 years he was president he had dozens of accomplishments that really helped working class Americans. If the liberals compared his accomplishments with what Biden has done it would be no contest. The only thing they can do is make up fake stories about Russian Collusion and complain about how one of his tweets insulted some poor snowflake.

GlassTop · Answer

Because liberals would rather have a career politician lie to them in a nice way than a person who will tell them the truth. For example, Biden’s big promise was to cancel student debt, no wars, unify the country, handle the border, lower crime, and stop the pandemic. All of it was a complete lie and they ate it up. It just shows that people don’t care about the truth. As long as you promise them nice things and fake smiles.

You've got more important things to worry about in your life than the things Trump says but you don't have more important things to worry about than the things Liberals say? That makes you seem... unwell.

Why don't you move to Russia like you promised and you won't have to worry about it. Vlad will keep you busy with... other things,

And it's not as though Trump NEEDED the job!
He wanted to help support our country which had been beaten down through liberalism.
Right now, I wish he was still in the White House- and he SHOULD be.

Lol, sometimes I actually like Trump. Although, I don't think he's the savior of America like some supposed Conservatives. Maybe a small step in the right direction, but we need a Thomas Jefferson right now.

His personality is what makes him a loose cannon. He has an over the top view of himself and a distorted view of reality.

Claiming its a rigged election, when the voter fraud found have been his supporters. Remember in his speach to the UN they all laughed at him? Trump is Putins bitch... and his actions and commenta prove it.

Soteris · Answer

Considering he slept through his job as president we dont have much else to talk about than his failures and his bad personality.

Because their move is and has always been, label the Republican as the worst most evil person since Hitler. They do that with every Republican President and Candidate that stands a chance.

OddBeMe · Answer

I’m bothered by blatant corruption. His personality is just the cherry.  Maybe trump supporters’ personalities. They’re pretty fckin annoying.

Dargil · Answer

They expect political Armageddon in 2022 and 2024. They know Trump is still the Republican leader.

Anonymous · Answer

Maybe because his personality attracts some real low class supporters.
