I mean, I keep hearing you and CM claim that Trump did things you dont like, but you both still support him
That's because no politician has yet come forward who aligns with the vast majority of my views. Granted, I don't think any politician with my views would be electable.

If you take away all the things you 'dont like' about Trump, well, what are you left with? What is different between that and Democrats?
Judicial appointments and gun politics. The former sticks around long after he's left office.

My highly critical views on the nation of Israel. Not unique, but rather difficult for a Republican to run on that issue.

And you think how he treats women, children, non-whites, LGBT people, the poor and coal miners is worth it? That Brett Kavanaugh and gun rights are more important than those things?

If the democrats would, on a state and national level, completely concede the issue of gun rights to the GOP, then I would be in a position to reconsider. I still haven't forgotten (or forgiven) the local democratic parties of Chicago and DC for passing bans on handguns that required a Supreme Court ruling to smack them down on. Or their foot dragging that took place after that by those localities. I also haven't forgiven the ACLU for not learning to count to ten without skipping two, but that's a tangential issue. Basically, whenever the democratic party opens its mouth on guns, they make it very clear to me that they do not want my vote. And I am happy to oblige.

As for Kavanaugh: I do not believe the accusation against him was credible and concrete enough to warrant not approving him to the federal bench. Reasonable people can disagree on this topic, of course.

See, you are very strongly right-wing with your views on Immigration, I do not think you will deny that at all.
If it's Right-Wing to want people to come in Legally and not just go through the door without even knocking? Sure, Right-Wing me up, baby. If it offers any contrast to that however, I'd love for us to have an exchange program where we get all the Americans-at-heart in here a lot faster, and everyone else can take everyone that would much rather be everywhere else. Love what we stand for, want to get in here ASAP and get to shooting things with DDs and eating some TexMex with that other food people brought here? Come on in. Hate this place and want to be literally anywhere else? Please, do go elsewhere. Nothing like an election cycle to make you get so damn close to "love it or leave it".
You also claimed Trump's camps are not of the Nazi variety, so then you should actually like Obama's version, the one that was meant to curb immigration, but not torturing children and not seperating the families. If anything, maybe you should be realizing you like Obama more than you realized and that the 'actually right-wing Democrats' are more your flavor.
So as long as they have soap and toothpaste, you're fine with literally everything else. Just like Hitler giving away showers before giving away the other showers. My issue is with the circus, not the make-up the clown is wearing.
I mean, I keep hearing you and CM claim that Trump did things you dont like, but you both still support him. If you take away all the things you 'dont like' about Trump, well, what are you left with? What is different between that and Democrats?
Well, the Dems are pretty much wiping their ass with the first and second amendments, and don't care because for the latter, it's something they just don't like. For the first, it's because it's speech they don't like. I remember when that was a Republican problem, in my mind. Now I see that in reality, Democrats really don't value speech either. At least Donald isn't 24/7 trying to push the bullshit concept of everything being 'hate speech' down my throat, and for his antics with bump stocks, isn't gunning after be owning anything more complex than a fucking flintlock. The Democrats have no platform besides 'Defeat Trump'. I want my freedoms, and I want to be left the fuck alone. Trump is closer to that than anyone the Democrats have put forward. If you don't understand why, I implore you to analyze your party's platform and why on Earth a random vaguely queer latino from California thinks Trump is the viable candidate.

Yes, I am well aware how gun rights people care more about gun rights than people's rights.

Donald Trump literally calls criticism of him 'fake news' and 'libel'. Trump is vehemently anti-free speech, and wants literally only his own brand of hate speech to be allowed. No one can support free speech AND Trump. Those two things are mutually exclusive.

Donald Trump also does not support fair immigration. He is racist against Mexicans. If you want actual fair and reasonable immigration control, you wont get it with Trump.


So many things you claim to support, but you support Trump, which goes against many of these things you claim to support. Tear all those differences away, and what do you have left?

It's easier at the state level for me because most democrats in my state are rather conservative and state level politics don't involve foreign policy (at least not that much)

You do know that when we talk about gun rights, we're not talking about rights for inanimate objects, but the right of people to lawfully exercise their second amendment rights, yes?

Yes, Trump says derisive things about the media and has said he wants to "open up" defamation law (which has gone nowhere because it's state law).

A far cry from falesly stating that hate speech is not protected by the first amendment [https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2017/05/30/hate-speech-is-not-protected-by-the-first-amendment-oregon-mayor-says-hes-wrong/?utm_term=.1dfad9836c0a], despite the fact that it 100% absolutely is [https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2017/04/21/no-gov-dean-there-is-no-hate-speech-exception-to-the-first-amendment/?noredirect=on&utm_term=.5d14c27301a2]. Not that I'm going to let the GOP off the hook for flag burning and their total idiocy when it comes to that.

but I think most of the people who want them the most, don't deserve them
That's the great thing about rights: I get to exercise them, regardless of how you personally feel about them.

You're making excuses then.

He is racist against all non-whites. I am sure if he was shown a very Aryan Mexican, he would get caught up in his racist hypocrisy. But then, he also continues to illegally employ illegal immigrants, and his wife is one too. Trump is a racist, AND a hypocrite.

Basically, I think you either support someone despite him not representing your views, or you support someone who does represent your views and you keep claiming otherwise. Which is it?

Gun rights should not supersede natural rights. Guns are man-made tools of murder. That is worth less than LGBT people's rights to exist.

I disagree, no more than any democrat voter was letting Clinton "off the hook" for what she did as secretary of state (Libya springs to mind).

Too many people care more for the right to let dangerous people own tools of murder than ensuring children are safe from harm by the literal government.
Or people care about letting people exercise their constitutional rights more than the opinions of those who would try (and fail) to restrict them.

I am sure if he was shown a very Aryan Mexican
I'm sorry, but the mental image of that is really funny. And then I remember the Goldshirts from Mexico.

Gun rights should not supersede natural rights. Guns are man-made tools of murder.
Man, if my guns are tools of murder, they're doing a really shitty job. I've owned them for nearly a decade now and not once have they killed anyone.

So you want guns so you can KILL tyrannical politicians?

Ya know, if Gun Rights people advocated background checks and shit like that, ya know, making sure not any nutjob could just get a gun, you know you would have far less problems with Democrats, right? I don't want to wait for a school shooting before we go 'Maybe this persons should not have had a gun'.

I do not follow your jump in logic there.

EDIT: I see now. Edited my post to make my point more clear

Ya know, if Gun Rights people advocated background checks and shit like that, ya know, making sure not any nutjob could just get a gun, you know you would have far less problems with Democrats, right?
We have background checks. You're talking about private transfer, right? I have advocated allowing private individuals to submit a request for a check through NCIS, but that idea hasn't caught on quite yet.
