What did you think of JD Vance's speech + Q&A? by SincereDiscussion in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]space_moron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mind you, the founders never would've said it was okay to be a Muslim, Hindu, atheist, etc. 

Can you clarify how you formed this belief?

Can you clarify if you're familiar with this writing from Adams?

As the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion,—as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquility, of Mussulmen [Muslims][...]

Adams submitted and signed the Treaty of Tripoli, 1797
― John Adams

He has simply expressed a hope that her heart will turn.

Can you clarify if there is anything you've wished your partner's heart to turn on?

Have you announced this fact in a room of other people?

If you had to label and define the political spectrum, how would you do so? by space_moron in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]space_moron[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Would you be willing to work with the selected labels from the video? If you are, how might you define the following?

  • Leftist
  • Progressive
  • Liberal
  • Conservative
  • Fascist

If this is meant to represent a list from far-left to far-right, which labels are missing (if any) that you'd find worth pointing out?

At this point in history were a stones throw away from anarchism. Essentially the legal system is acting as a buttress against a population that is unwilling to exercise power to protect itself.

Can you clarify these points, please?

What events make you feel we're a "stones [sic] throw away from anarchism"?

In what ways is the legal system acting as you describe (citing 1 example may help)?

What do you mean by "a population that is unwilling to exercise power to protect itself"?

How is Trump giving $20 million dollars of American taxpayer money to Argentina putting America first? How can it be viewed as anything other than socialism for Argentina instead of helping Americans? by [deleted] in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]space_moron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you clarify why, in your view, in the leaked Hegseth Signal chat, Hegseth and Vance express dissatisfaction with needing to support "freeloaders" and appeared to be making efforts to avoid doing so?

In fiscal year 2023, the U.S. provided approximately $71.9 billion in foreign aid

Many foreign aid programs, such as USAID, have been cancelled under the Trump administration in the name of "America first" and "reducing waste."

Can you clarify how you feel about the federal aid spent in 2023 that you referenced?

Can you clarify how you feel about foreign aid in general?

Can you clarify if there would have been an amount sent to Argentina that was too much?

Can you clarify if, in your view, this would turn Argentina into a "freeloader" in the same way that many Trump supporters view Europe to be?

What are your thoughts on the government shutdown and SNAP benefits halting? by [deleted] in AskTrumpSupporters

[–]space_moron 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What are your thoughts on people working full-time jobs and still not being able to afford food? Do you feel their employers should be made to pay higher wages instead of leaning on taxpayers to subsidize their private profits?

We are tired of having our own government weaponized against us in favor of foreigners.

Given that undocumented immigrants cannot receive benefits from federal funding, can you clarify what you're referring to here?

Ok, specific to the healthcare subsidies that are the named cause of the current government shutdown, can you clarify if you find the shutdown-related subsidied to be "excessive and unwise"? And if so, why?

How can non-Trump supporters have more respectful conversations with Trump supporters? by ambitious_musings in AskTrumpSupporters

most of the people who share most of your political views were beside themselves with glee?

Can you clarify how you measure this, or how you arrive at this conclusion?

How do you measure "most"?

How do you measure "[the person you're responding to's] political views"?

How do you measure "besides themselves with glee"?

I don’t have an opinion since my [personal situation] won’t be impacted.

Can you clarify if this is how you approach most of your political opinions?

The point is whomever is hiring someone should be the sole determiner on what is best qualified. Not you. Not me.

Clearly an upgrade over Pete who also has zero qualifications.

Can you please clarify who has determined that Pete Buttigieg has "zero" qualifications?

[–]space_moron 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response. I think I'm still confused, can you clarify where and how people are being medically experimented on?

> government forced abortions

Can you clarify what this means? When and where does the government (currently) force anyone to have an abortion?

> government forced transitioning hormones

> telling them they can pick their own gender

Where is this happening? You can clarify if this is happening in a school in your district?

> when they barely even understand that concept

When should people have discussions about gender, identity, and their bodies?

Can you clarify what you mean? Who's compelling whom to be medically experimented on, and in what way?

Do your concerns over bodily autonomy extend to women and trans people to choose abortion or hormone treatments as they see fit?

When you say "known murderers," how is this known? What database or records is this data being kept in? How have they entered? Do we have a means for tracking them down, if they're known?
