Trump supporters more tolerant than Clinton supporters

This doesn't come as a surprise to anyone who really pays attention and doesn't live in their ideological bubble like the left

This is backed up by this social experiment:



The guy goes to both conventions, with signs supporting the opposite candidate. When the guy goes to the trump rally as a clinton supporter, the trump supporters basically joke around with him and laugh and take it in stride. When the guy goes to the clinton convention as a trump supporter, he gets surrounded, yelled at and almost beaten up.

Leftists wrongly believe that supporting things like queer marriage, guys peeing in girls bathrooms etc. is what demonstrates their intolerance. But that isn't tolerance. Tolerance is ACCEPTING that people have differing views than you and moving on. Leftists want you destroyed.

i think a big part of this is because us conservatives have to make amends early on that not everyone is like us, we see it transparently in our culture. All our favorite movie actors and tv actors are usually liberal. All the bands and music we listen to usually have left wing politics (minus dipshit country music fans). Our teachers skew liberal, and (from my own experience) we had to write papers with the correct political slant or otherwise have our grades suffer. The authors we read, the journalists that report the news, all push a liberal point of view. Conservatives are exposed to this on a daily basis.

Liberals on the other hand simply are not used to being challenged, not used to having others disagree with them. They live in a bubble and it's very hard for them to empathize. They don't live in a culture where the majority of authors are writing conservative themed books, or hollywood is 90% conservative. There whole lives, every institution essentially agrees with their world view.

Most citizens in middle America have plenty of exposure to hollywood, the arts, the leftwing media, but the coasts have very little exposure to the fly over states. They have very little exposure to how those people live their lives, and they scorn them accordingly.

Are you defending Trump?

Best post in a while, Grind. Some truth there. I’m not saying it doesn’t work both ways but I have found that last sentence to be abundantly true.

Thank you for your thoughts, Irthriuth.

You appear to be equating conservatives with Trump followers, which I would say is a category error. Many conservatives support him, of course, but Trump - at least in his current incarnation - is a right-wing would-be populist, not a conservative. As he seems to have few if any core principles and no discernible moral compass, it's hard to say what he really is.

My guys are more tolerant than your guys so there.

They say the same about you, just a matter of perception isn't it.

You realize that's an opinion article, right?

All articles are opinion articles even your Pew poll. You just whine when it disagrees with whatever tripe you are promoting. Now, do you have any poll to support your BS that was taken after the election?

The pew was a poll of a representative group. Your article was the opinion of a single person. Do you understand the difference?

the heritage foundation, a very conservative organization, has said the following:

“We’re blown away,” said Thomas Binion of Heritage, President Trump “is very active, very conservative and very effective. Huge volume & spectrum of issues.”

Additionally the heritage foundation has said trump has implemented about 64% of their "mandate for leadership" agenda in the first year.

Then you combine that with these two awesome conservative supreme court picks, and the data is clear, regardless of what trump might actually believe, he's been our most conservative president in literally 3 decades. nevertrumpers can suck a dick.

Now, I am a libertarian, I don't agree with everything trump does, despite how people here circlejerk how I am a trump supporter. I don't agree with protectionist economic policies, I don't agree with his stance on 4th amendment issues, or the drug war. These are big issues for me. So I don't think he's perfect. But trump has literaly governed more conservatively than any shill establishment candidate we otherwise would have gotten, be it little marco, low energy jeb, or any of those other bullshit insiders minus rand paul and probably ted cruz.

The perfect can't be the enemy of the good but if you like conservative policy, trump objectively has been the best for that since reagan. no question.
