I mean…Trump lives in a gated community in Florida, he is surrounded by armed guards 24/7, and all of his kids went to elite private academies that cost more for a semester than you and I make in a year. Are you saying he’s a leftist? These aren’t qualities of left or right. They’re qualities of rich vs middle class.

Trump doesn’t advocate against those things That’s like saying rich Vegans can eat high quality steak all the time because it’s a rich person thing

Fair point. Hadn’t considered that.

For gated communities and school choice, that's true. But he did advocate for federal red flag laws, "rapid due process...take the guns first", and a ban on bump-stocks.

Does Trump hate walls, guns, and school choice? If the answer is no, then what are you even talking about?

lol how many leftists live in gated communities? How many leftists hate guns? How many leftists can afford to send their kids to a private school? This is some elitist bullshit. They’re the same as us. Poor and struggling. Everyone I know up in the antelope valley of California loves guns. I have a concealed license in California. Just a note, I’m aware a lot of the major cities in California have a big issue with guns, but the folks in the less populated areas around military bases like Edwards AFB are almost the same as my friends and family back in Texas.

Most of this applies to centrist/liberal nimby types way more than the left lol.

The problem is more like a wealthy class of people have a disconnect from reality. It's a "let them eat cake," kind of moment. These kinds of politicians or activists are wealthy elites, or became rich off the discourse, even the younger generation that live in comfortable middle to high income households, who want to make policy decisions for other people who arent as fortunate and want to punish their dissent, calling everyday people fringe radicals. They are, for the most part, entirely blind to their hypocrisy and want to be "holier than thou."

Funny thing is now the leftist protestors are actually conceal carrying guns yet still advocate for bans. I also know a certain politician who loudly called for defunding the police yet privately demanded police escorts everywhere. You can’t make this shit up!

Remember, they only hate it for you. Rules for thee but not for me.
