8 Outrageous Statements Made By Trump Supporters
http://www.washingtontimes.com

Trump supporters have their own very interesting opinions on a lot of different issues. While some of this 'information' may be common knowledge in their world, it's news to the rest of us. Below you'll find actual statements that came from actual people that think Trump is making America great again.

1. “Trump is a genius for avoiding paying taxes.

This statement is wildly ridiculous. Taxes support the public by paying for services such as roads and infrastructure improvement, the salaries of servicemen and women, and other necessary projects. Trump avoided paying about 50 million dollars a year over 18 years. Think of all the good that money could’ve done, yet trump kept it to himself. Genius? No. Selfish? Yes. If we all acted like this, we'd be living in a state of chaos.

2. “The Presidency is a man’s job.”

When asked why she believed this one Trump supported her opinion with the “evidence” that women are more emotional than men and would lead us into unnecessary wars. She clearly has science on her side, and how can I argue against that?


3. “So what if he [Trump] wants to grab p***y, I wanna grab p***y

I think it’s important to recognize p***y is not a free floating idea, but a part of a woman with a name and the right to be respected.

Also, just to be clear not all men speak like that and if you conduct "locker room talk" outside of a locker room, the problem is you, not your location.


4. “Hillary Clinton contracted AIDS from Bill’s affair with Magic Johnson.”

Why base your beliefs on facts when you can use crazy conspiracies?


5. “Barack Obama had a big part in 9/11 because he was always on vacation and never in the office.”

That’s really strange that President Obama was missing from the Oval office seven years before he was elected. What could be more important? Where was he??


6. "One man's sexual assault is another man's flirtation."

If that's not reasonable what is?

7. “Gay couples shouldn’t have equal rights because it isn’t fair to the regular couple that worked so hard. The gay couple wants more.”

Interviewer: When you say more, do you mean equal?

Trump Supporter: “Well, yeah”

Interviewer: And that’s just too much?

Trump Supporter: “Yeah.”


8. “Extreme nations don’t treat women with respect. That’s an American Ideal.”

Now this is a opinion I can get behind. Women should be treated with respect. Yet it seems a little strange that the man who said this was wearing a shirt that read, “Hillary sucks, but not like Monica.” He was unable to see the irony even when asked about the back of his shirt as he yelled, “Trump that B**ch!”

Friendship. It's defined as the state of being attached to another person by feelings of affection or personal regard, but what really is friendship? Is it that occasional hallway talk with that one person who always manages to cheer you up? Is it that relationship you have with someone where they can be gone for a long period of time, but when they come back, it's like they never left? Is it spending every waking hour with someone, and knowing every detail about their life? Is it the relationship that's filled with fighting, but filled with even more resolution? I've learned that it's all of these things, and every friendship is different. It's a beautifully dysfunctional mess that should always be cherished and never be taken for granted.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.
