the biggest problem is when some idiot thinks that he can paint "Trump Supporters" with one nice wide brush. It's the epitome of stupid. There are quite a few varieties. But the one thing that will remain constant, is the more bottom feeders come up with dumbass ideas like this one, the more they will find people opposing their low information viewpoints.

when the OP is this idiotic, addressing the issue is not an option. It's like if I started a thread titled "Why everyone in the UK has bad teeth". Think on that for a spell.

That's because people in general seem to be dishonest.
Not only with others, but also with themselves.
When Trump supporter say that Hilary is not fit because of her health but then ignore similar points being made about Trump is that not hypocrisy?
Its ok to suggest Hilary is not physically fit enough to be POTUS but its not ok to make the same suggestion about Trump?
Is that not hypocrisy?
Call for Obama's impeachment for whatever reason, its patriotic, call for Trumps and you are a traitor, is that not hypocrisy.

LesMis is arguing that since "Trump supporter" never claimed to be impartial he can do these things without being a hypocrite.
Of course, many do claim to be fair and still do this so they would be acting hypocritically and most people would understand that that is what you mean but not LesMis.

Again do you not see how you are actually enforcing the point I made before.
If you wrote a thread like that I would say you are wrong because of x,y and z or that you are right for other reasons.
But to basically say "nah your a idiot bye" is pretty pointless is it not?
I love that you have been able to explain it better than him with a simple line.

Again I think this is a big part of it.
It creates almost a degree of cognitive dissonance, they might now that supporting Trump in some aspects is hypocritical but its so at odds with hard held beliefs that they just dismiss it and ignore it.

"trump supporter". What about, "defender of stupid"? You don't have to be a "trumpite" or "trumer" or a Trump supporter to read the golden shower bull# and call it out for what it was, but if you do, you are a "trumpster" or some other dumb# term. Having names thrown at you time and again, from people who from their very words, are "anti-trumpettes" gets old and a bit annoying. Watching the left show their inner two year old has been a very sad thing to watch. temper tantrums, crying, flailing, none of that will make Trump go away. And if the boneheads who are so damn afraid of what he might do or say, would STFU for a few minutes, he would likely do or say something stupid, but he doesn't have much of a chance with all the lies and projecting going on.
If you are unhappy, be sure you show up at the polls in 2020. But my advise would be find a decent candidate to run, When your side gets beat by "The Donald", well, you really didn't have a very strong team to start with.
Well you are basically refusing to believe that Trump supporters are being hypocritical because you dont like the use of the word.
So are we really this daft?
you tell me.

I never said Trump supporters aren't being hypocritical. I said that you're examples aren't examples of hypocrisy. Based on your evidence, your accusation is false.
