I’ve been a loyal Trump supporter since 2016.

I lost a job, friendships, been smeared online, doxxed, and pressed charges on people who’ve stalked and harassed me for supporting him.

If Trump doesn’t want my support, because I care about the Epstein Files, then I’m done.

Bye.

    I can vaguely imagine soldiers being loyal to a general in a war. If a general always seems to find a way to win, even against the odds, I can picture his soldiers being willing to… well not to die for him, but the opposite. I can imagine them being fiercely loyal and trying to protect him because he’s making sure they don’t die.

      You basically plucked the thought from my head as to why I added ‘borderline’ to that sentence. Yes, in a desperate situation, it’s not insane to glom on to the safest option available.

      But war has never been a great place for being rife with sane options, it’s almost always created by one or more people being insane in the first place and making it their neighbors’ problem.

          I disagree with you on that. Hell is just God’s gator gitmo. The dictator has no review board and has never been consistent about their ethical standards (they claim to have such consistency and such a code, but beyond a few basic principles, ~90% of their code is a direct appeal to authority (might makes right), and independent review finds the consistency claims about as on par with the claims of the current POTUS.)
