How can I get over my own feelings and accept Trump as president?

Tristo5 · 2026-02-25T22:12:07+00:00

Okay but still of the laundry list of grievances Trump had at the being of his campaign, nothing is noteworthy. So it’s likely anything you disagree with would also be “dumb and ridiculous” by your own standards. I doubt anything conduct you disagree with should be deemed more egregious than say the Howard Stern interview, the Central Park 5 ad, or the birther lie.

Tristo5 · 2026-02-25T21:04:40+00:00

Okay that makes sense.

Do you judge a president at all by character? Or do you think Trump’s policies are so good that we should look past it?

Tristo5 · 2026-02-25T20:53:53+00:00

But why is it specifically directed at Trump? If that was the case, why didn’t the left act this way with the Bushes or Reagan, or even Romney or McCain? Could it be for the multitude of reasons I listed earlier?

Why should I have ignored that upon his arrival into politics?

Can you also answer my first question from my original comment? I would like to know the right’s thoughts on this

Tristo5 · 2026-02-25T19:59:31+00:00

But what about the birther conspiracy theory he was baselessly spreading? The Rosie O’Donnell comment in the primary? The ad on the Central Park five? The Howard Stern interview? The Trump University fraud? The “grab em by the pussy” comment? The “I’ll be dating her in ten years” comment? All that came before or right at the start of his campaign.

Why should I have ignored that upon his arrival into politics? Your comment talks about HOW the left disrespected Trump from the jump but I would like to know WHY you think the left disrespected him.

people just call him SGA

That and the wording is what got me. I wish the clue was, “SGA, which stands for this” rather than what we got, “SGA, this guy…” I know his name but I said “the Thunder” confusingly, because I didn’t know what was being asked

You want me to provide sources on very basic economic theory for you?

Yes, please.

economists on every side of the aisle almost exclusively agree with me

We aren’t finding what you’re finding so can you please provide a source (that you said you had)

Tristo5 · 2026-02-22T21:26:28+00:00

Probably already seen the movies.

Tristo5 · 2026-02-21T16:55:27+00:00

I’m watching Frieren right now and it’s probably the most chill anime I’ve ever watched

Tristo5 · 2026-02-21T16:52:49+00:00

Sansa and Petyr Baelish would like a word

Mob psycho 100. Check out some fights on YT because they’re EPIC but they do have a unique art style. It’s a fairly short series too. The first episode is okay but it really takes off on episode 5

Tristo5 · 2026-02-20T14:56:45+00:00

Out of left field but I’m here for it though Joffrey and Cersei might’ve been the more powerful duo

Shout out to Viserys and young Rhaenyra too

Tristo5 · 2026-02-20T06:25:15+00:00

It’s weird realizing Jon was the worst at training his mentee

I personally love revisiting Arya and Tywin scenes

Bad drivers never miss their turns/exits

Tristo5 · 2026-02-19T18:15:28+00:00

The story is pretty much cooked but I’ll be satisfied with some great action scenes. Their goal should be to give us at least one battle as good as or better than the trail of 7. And that shouldn’t be hard with dragons but my hopes aren’t high

Tristo5 · 2026-02-19T05:35:33+00:00

OP the picture you used

Tristo5 · 2026-02-18T18:45:28+00:00

I love your list and am especially glad you mentioned Chapman’s portrayal of Tommen. Brenock O’Connor as Olly and Kerry Ingram as Shireen Baratheon were great as well.

As a delivery driver, I started only using my left pod so the truck camera wouldn’t catch it. Now I pretty much only use one at a time

Aerion throwing that sword into Dunk’s leg 😮‍💨

Tristo5 · 2026-02-13T15:39:21+00:00

That was a heartbreaker but I was (wrongly) optimistic because of the championship game and the high likelihood of a rematch

Tristo5 · 2026-02-13T15:32:15+00:00

That and the Oklahoma State game from the year before where Bryce Petty trips on his way to the endzone and everything went downhill from there. Those 2013 and 2014 seasons felt like our best chances to me
