Why I changed my mind about Trump; I once believed him during his campaign. Now I realize he's a lying thief, a conman, just like the Presidents before him. Time to hold him accountable.

Remember when Trump said he wasn't going to take a salary? He just accepted his second paycheck.
Remember when he said Mexico was going to pay for the wall? He has asked Congress to appropriate the $25 billion of taxpayer money to cover costs.
Remember when he said he wasn't going to go on vacation or play golf? 5 of the last 7 weekends he went on vacation and played golf, costing taxpayers $11.1 million.
Remember when he said he was going to use American steel to build these dangerous pipelines? Russian steel arrived last week for the Keystone Pipeline XL.
Remember when he said he wasn't going to cut social security and Medicare? The Republican bill does just this.
Remember when he said that nobody on his campaign had any communications with the Russian government? 7 of his people have now admitted they spoke and/or met with Russian officials, after they lied and got caught.
Remember when he said he was going to divest from his businesses? He changed his mind.
Remember when he said he was going to release his tax returns? He changed his mind.
Remember when he said he was going to drain the swamp of Washington insiders? His cabinet is filled with lobbyists, oil and Wall Street executives.
Remember when he said would defeat ISIS in 30 days? He doesn't have a plan. But his administration just mistakenly bombed a mosque in Syria killing 57 innocent people who were in the act of peacefully praying instead of the intended target. Not to mention the botched raid that killed a serviceman and little children he ordered and didn't even have the respect to disrupt his dinner to oversee.
Remember when he said that the Obamacare replacement would cover more people at lower cost? The AHCA that the GOP and 45 are now pushing; they now admit will cover fewer people at a higher cost.

They are all tools. If people would start realizing this, we could change things. The system is a lie.

No one cares.
A third of this sub is from The Donald, who will down vote anything they disagree with.
Another third are fucking antitrump shills.
I can't tell why this sub is such a target. They are destabilizing us.
n/a anthrolooksee 2017-03-19
It's really awful. I finally saw shillwork definitively the other day. It was truly disheartening.
I suppose it's great that we are likely on to some things that has the people paying the shills concerned. But man, I sort of wish we could just go back to being disregarded as though we wear tin foil hats.

Suspicious account activity too. Two or three comments in T_D which are essentially no more than "LOL", and then the account is filled from that point on with anti-Trump comments.
n/a DWRECKINEM 2017-03-19
And yet u can't refute his points
n/a KiA423469420 2017-03-19
Pointing out suspicious account activity on that level is relevant. That kind of account comment doesn't establish pro-Trump bona fides. Quite to the contrary, they indicate a weak attempt at faking them.
n/a pcrawford46 2017-03-19
Finally, a real life conspiracy: a wave of week old accounts are suddenly posting nothing but anti Trump crap everywhere it doesn't belong. You're deranged. Seek help.
n/a redditeditard 2017-03-19
The real conspiracy?
Trump supporters who claim factual debate is fake content, without responding to claims.
It's all fake news and shills, huh? Why don't you refute each point?
n/a acedivision 2017-03-19
Thank you! Absolutely sick of people refusing to debate (usually because they can't - either due to intelligence or lack thereof or inability to disprove a claim), and just screaming "shill" instead.

Because I'm not stupid? Because I know how trolling & sealioning works? Because my point is that this has fuck all to do with anything conspiracy related? Because it's a waste of time to respond to/for aren't interested in the truth? Because I don't give a damn what you or OP thinks? Because I know exactly what's going on here and what's coming next?
Pick one.

n/a elnegroik 2017-03-19
Why didn't you refute OPs point? It looks lazy when you jump straight into adhoms without making effort to rebuke a well presented position. As far as I can see every single claim made presented is true, easily verifiable and serves to demonstrate the central point- well said u/FUCK_TPTB

https://www.google.com/amp/www.vanityfair.com/news/2017/03/donald-trump-salary-donation/amp
Refutation:
Legally he has to accept the salary, why didn't OP explain this? Perhaps OP doesn't know or perhaps OP doesn't care.
The fact that no accountability has been set up to prove that he is donating his salary is an absurd argument because there is zero precidence for there to be an accountability report on donating the presidential salary.
IMHO this is just more MSM spin doctoring anything and everything they can to paint Trump in a bad light.
n/a DWRECKINEM 2017-03-19

Vacation:
https://www.google.com/amp/www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2017/02/11/donald-trump-turns-golf-diplomacy-japanese-leader-shinzo-abe/amp/
The anti-trump people are going to spin everything Trump does in a negative way. And the pro Trump people inversely will spin everything in a positive way.
The truth lay somewhere in the middle. The article I posted shows that Trump is doing a working vacation. Which isn't the worst way to get rid of the boring stately arrangements of the past. But it does contradict his statements during the campaign. One has to decide for themselves how they feel about it.
n/a DWRECKINEM 2017-03-19

American Steel:
https://www.google.com/amp/abcnews.go.com/amp/Politics/keystone-pipeline-american-steel-trumps-repeated-promises/story%3Fid%3D45898255
So while Trump's rhetoric is exaggerated, his executive order is clear and sets the stage for all future purchases of steel in relation to these pipelines to be American steel while simultaneously allowing these companies to use the steel they have already purchased.
When you really start to look into this propaganda you can see the spin jobs come into focus.
n/a DWRECKINEM 2017-03-19

n/a crazymysteriousman 2017-03-19
"Trump" didn't do that, Obama and Congress approved it back in December.
n/a anthrolooksee 2017-03-19
Exactly. The list has some valid points. I was never a Trump fan. But I REALLY did not want Hillary to win. Currently, I am still happy with the results of the election, under the premise it had to be one of the two.
But Trump supporters really need to wake up. You have to hold your chosen politician accountable. The list OP posted, regardless if OP is a shill or not, is something to take seriously. At this point, it's starting to look like many Trump supporters are hitting the koolaid as hard as Obama supporters were his first campaign. These politicians cannot hold godlike status. They are human. They will make mistakes. They will be wrong. But they need to be held accountable by their own supporters too for any good to result.
We need to stop with this us Vs. them mentality. It's become so strong it is making us blind to reality.
And honestly, no true r/conspiracy subscriber should be blindly loving a politician or govt branch. That just makes no sense. I thought our tin foil hats prevented such a thing. ;)
n/a PrickSantorum 2017-03-19

He's cherry picking things MSM has been pushing down our throats since he took office. I don't give a flying fuck about his tax returns or Russia.

n/a DrDougExeter 2017-03-19
Like what?
n/a DrDougExeter 2017-03-19
Any confidence in this economy is founded on unstable ground. Seriously, it could not be more clear. People are throwing their money in the stock market because trump promised to slash corporate taxes. This will result in corporations posting record profits in the coming quarters. But this is obviously unsustainable, and there will be a crash in the future to correct. You can only cut so many corners. None of trumps policies actually address the true problems of the economy, only the symptoms, and all his policies mostly benefit the already wealthy.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but do you have sources on those numbers and figures I could check out?
n/a mastigia 2017-03-19
Yeah, with sources this would be a post I could seriously entertain. I kinda have been tuning out all the anti-trump propaganda because it was all "thou doth protest too much" kinda shit, and I wanted to give him a fair shake. We hadn't really had any time with him in office to evaluate him, and yet had a massive narrative push describing what seemed like years of malfeasance. On top of that, we had the obviously fabricated russian narrative discrediting criticism of Trump.
But I think we've had enough time to start evaluating what we really have here. If the retarded shill team would just stfu for a month here so some real red blooded humans could discuss this subject, that'd be great.
n/a TheMadQuixotician 2017-03-19
If it was sourced, even at all I'd lend it some credence. I understand it may sound snobby, but unless he made it up, the information came from somewhere and I'd be genuinely curious to delve deeper. If true, it's a nice compilation of allegations, but the delivery is so soap-boxey that I'm having trouble picking up what OP is putting down.
Red blood, blue blood, green blood, don't matter to me. Let the discourse be patient, reasonable, and derived from un-doctored (as best as possible at least) fact.
OP, if you have some sources, I believe you'd have a larger audience than you think. I don't what to believe anymore so I'll hear anyone out at this point, provided the argument is backed with sources and the premises match the argument without trying to invoke and emotional response.
n/a mastigia 2017-03-19

n/a EtCustodIpsosCustod 2017-03-19
You accuse others of having their eyes and ears shut, but require no sources to believe unsourced statements while calling Trump "liar in chief" and a "con man," presumably dismissing anything he says without giving his words a second thought (aka shutting your eyes and ears to anything he says).

I stopped caring because I can't provide any proof that isn't "lying MSM" all i can say is read the bill Trump said he was 100% behind for healthcare-- it does the opposite of what he said. Look at the budget, he appropriated our money for it. Those are the most primary sources I have off the top of my head
n/a TheMadQuixotician 2017-03-19
It's a shame how media outlets twist the language in the primary sources to weaponize the information to produce some sort of emotional response in the viewer. You're absolutely right, I should stop whining for proof and dig myself. Thanks for the light bump on the head
n/a zeimcgei 2017-03-19
Agreed! It's good to see another voice of reason. Now I realize I was manipulated by Russian agents and fake news for most of the election cycle.
The MSM and alternative media parroted vague lines about email servers and "shady" foundations to build up distrust for Secretary Clinton. She's a lifelong public servant.
Meanwhile they whitewashed everything in Trump's past and gave his very real scandals and misdeeds the bare minimum of airtime.
He will face impeachment after the investigation into his Russian ties. Those close to him are already falling. It can't come quickly enough.
I actually thought he'd help the middle class. I'm voting Dem from now on. Democrats are the only non establishment bastion remaining that will align policy with public interest.

Do you just infer that the person you are talking to doesn't like Hillary because of her age or gender??
n/a EtCustodIpsosCustod 2017-03-19
Do you not see how dismissive it is to blame sexism for criticism or dislike of Hillary, and why that dismissiveness would anger the people who you are essentially implying are too stupid to see past their own sexism and that their reasons for disliking Hillary therefore must be illegitimate?
This is why blaming bigoted beliefs for dislike or criticism is not persuasive (and is perhaps dissuasive) to people who are open to the possibility of legitimate reasons for criticism (aka open-minded). When you dismiss criticism as being motivated by bigoted beliefs, implying that it cannot be legitimate, you out yourself as someone who is close-minded. You are relying on speculation regarding possible motivations for disliking Hillary, without thinking critically about whether there are reasons to dislike Hillary that could have merit.
So you anger the person you are directly dismissive of, and you suggest to others that you are close-minded. This is not a recipe for persuasive argument.

Seriously? You think he was going to make Mexico write him a cheque to pay for the wall? Are you 12? Any intelligent person knows he meant Mexico will pay for the wall over time, ie through taxes and tariffs.
Trump is spending weekends at Trump Tower and Mar-a-lago because the White House is compromised, as evidenced by his communications being constantly leaked to the media and multiple cases of people breaching the outer fence to try and get to him. It isn't just Trump going to Mar-a-Lago, it is his advisors and staff. They are generally working with a few days off thrown in as well.
Ok, so with the billions he has saved on the Air Force One and F-35 programs, national debt being down by billions, taxpayers are still on the winning end, no?
No.
n/a DEEP_SEA_MAX 2017-03-19
The tariff plan was all ready shot down, and even if it wasn't all ready shot down, who really pays for tarriffs? The consumer, aka us.

He's saving money on the individual cost of f-35s by buying more of them. Not really the same thing at all
If I went out tomorrow and bought a new truck, but was able to negotiate the price down by 1k, my wife wouldn't say wow you earned 1k let's go on vacation. She's say why the fuck did you buy a new truck?

Even if OP is a shill, every point he/she brought up is valid. I was in the same boat as OP. If you're still blindly following Trump then it's time to take a step back.

You really aught to look at what people have done, rather than what they say they'll do, before supporting them in an election. He isn't doing anything he hasn't done in the past during his presidency. If you were taken in by his rants, that's on you. The only difference between Trump and Hillary is that Trump may actually get prosecuted for his crimes.
I honestly don't care about the Russia stuff one way or the other, communicating with a country isn't a bad thing no matter how you spin it.

How does it feel to be full of shit and an attention whore at the same time?

I vote for social issues rather than economy, I thought this country was capitalist so funny they think their government can fix it for them without communism. People may call me stupid for doing so but I know our currency is fiat backed by nothing more than incredibly well equipped and funded military. Also our "stability" in the world gives our money value. So I'm going to try to vote in people who will give us more and more freedoms. I know "free country" right?
I wanted Sanders. Now you may think Hillary "stole the nomination" from him but this country forgot it was capitalist again. Bernie spent his career as an Independent and Clinton spent her career helping Democrats. Bernie doesn't "deserve" the Democrat nomination but rather should have had the courage to run Independently as he always has because he's more socialist than Democrats ever were. Democrat establishment has a right to put whoever they want as their nominee for president. Primary votes are a suggestion box. They are not entitled to your vote come election day. People chose and Donald's president.
I've long said that I'm going to vote logically, but secretly hope Donald became president to destroy the world. Ah, him implicating the U.K in his spy schemes was just icing on my destruction cake. I wonder if the world will band together as Allies against the evil Axis... of America.

Which is as retarded to say as your initial point. Your agenda is clear, you're not fooling anyone.

Wait until China takes over world dominance with their own version is the TPP they've been planning for years with Peru, Japan, and a bunch of other US allies.

Do you just infer that the person you are talking to doesn't like Hillary because of her age or gender??

Do you not see how dismissive it is to blame sexism for criticism or dislike of Hillary, and why that dismissiveness would anger the people who you are essentially implying are too stupid to see past their own sexism and that their reasons for disliking Hillary therefore must be illegitimate?
This is why blaming bigoted beliefs for dislike or criticism is not persuasive (and is perhaps dissuasive) to people who are open to the possibility of legitimate reasons for criticism (aka open-minded). When you dismiss criticism as being motivated by bigoted beliefs, implying that it cannot be legitimate, you out yourself as someone who is close-minded. You are relying on speculation regarding possible motivations for disliking Hillary, without thinking critically about whether there are reasons to dislike Hillary that could have merit.
So you anger the person you are directly dismissive of, and you suggest to others that you are close-minded. This is not a recipe for persuasive argument.

Remember people: Sanders supporters gave us Turmp out of spite for an imaginary crime.
