It's nothing to do with the 1st amendment but it is all about tribalism. It's a 'ride or die' mentality of either you're all in or you might as well be on the other side. And unfortunately it's permeates all our politics. From the left try being a black person who supports any Republican and see the names they are called (Uncle Tom, sellout, coon, not invited to the BBQ etc. etc.), it's not pretty.
Anyone who has followed politics through multiple administrations knows that each 'side' says one thing when in power and often something different when out of power. Thus the hypocrisy of calling it out when you don't like the person doing it and being ok with it when its done by a person you like. Not sure that will ever change. Tribalism and partisanship is too strong. This board is a perfect example.

Understand, almost everyone dislikes something about the president, no matter who they may be. It isn't unusual.
I think Trump babbles too much, I'd cut him off of that twitter, he says stupid shit, but I agree with (most of) his policies.
Yep, I'm voting for him again with no reservations considering his opponent will be a puppet for the far left, whom I disagree.
I've had arguments with conservatives on this board, no big deal. But in the direction of things, Trump is the best candidate.
Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

Sad & true.........
If ppl in the party will not hold their leadership accountable, who will??
They need to be pushed & occasionally kicked to stay on course..
When Obama was elected I & many others did exactly this-held him to account, as best we could-not to bash him or just to critsize/tear down, but to hold him to his promises & responsibility to those that elected him...
THis is a classic example & one every voter should cherish:
Belafonte recounted what FDR replied upon hearing Randolph's remarks: "You know, Mr. Randolph, I've heard everything you've said tonight, and I couldn't agree with you more. I agree with everything that you've said, including my capacity to be able to right many of these wrongs and to use my power and the bully pulpit. ... But I would ask one thing of you, Mr. Randolph, and that is go out and make me do it."
That should make it quite clear..
This is an aid, not a hindrance..
FDR used it often, something to the affect: "this is not my doing or will, the ppl demand it of me".....cool_80_anim_gif.jpg
"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

No. You don't get to stifle my freedom of expression. Muh rights!
So you say, Shill.
Not that I know of. Since I have no "messiah" (mango or otherwise), that's hardly surprising, Shill.
