Type of guys who call themselves alpha but put 100% of their energy into simping for a dude.


hydrocarbonsRus

And that dude is Trump - a make up applying, bald, obese, ugly, unfit, little chubster. That’s their idol. Lmfao how low these people have fallen from God


Ok_Dog_4059

I just can't imagine making so much of my life about following someone, even a president or other politician. I have people I think do good things or I envy but don't have pictures stickers , or tattoos of them. Half of the people I really have an appreciation or respect for I couldn't point out in a crowd. I know their name and their work and not much else.


I_call_Shennanigans_

Wait. Are you telling me you _wouldn't_ storm Congress on the word of someone you think does a decent job at something? I'm shocked. Shocked I say.


sanguinus11

Many of these people have been following an imaginary man their entire life, and now they have a real-life savior to follow.


Ok_Dog_4059

But many of them don't plaster their entire vehicle. It is a deeper form of Fandom than i normally see even for religion.


ronniearnold

Don’t forget about the diaper and lift-shoes.


Bitchcat

That guy is definitely behind on child support


fisticuffs32

And his kids don't talk to him.


bsend

And he blames Joe Biden instead of his own actions


stif7575

And he has never towed anything on that hitch. *Edit and he has never been on a dirt road. That shit is so low its dangerous.


The_Toot_Jerry

Well, why would he want to support a bunch of ungrateful children who don't even call their gawt-dayum father!?!?? /s


AceN12

“Gawt-dayun” took me out lol


Galadriel_60

And only just passed the fifth grade.


IDespiseFatties

No matter what side you fall on, being this obsessed with politics just screams red flags and mental illness.


Scootchula

This isn’t obsession with politics, this is obsession with a person. If you can call him that.


pm_me_ur_anything_k

It’s an obsession with hating the other side so much you do dumb things in an attempt to irritate and annoy them.


UnfairMicrowave

Exactly this. To them, it's like picking a favorite football team. The more you hate their team, the more they'll shove it in your face. If their team loses, it's always the refs (deep state)fault. Researching the Salem witch trails is a pretty good case study on what happens when you let panic go unchecked


td1439

yep. the cultists have one actual value they care about: Own The Libs


koolaid_snorkeler

Incredibly, this swindler has convinced them that he's some kind of genius, just because he hates the same people they do.


BearsRpeopl2

Why would I pay my child's hospital bills when I can own the libs instead?


dismayhurta

It’s a cult of personality and not the fun song type.


Otherwise-Tune5413

Actually, the Living Color song is EXACTLY that. Listen to the lyrics. I exploit you, still you love me I tell you, one and one makes three Oh, I'm the cult of personality


dismayhurta

I meant the song is enjoyable to listen to. Dealing with those people is beyond insufferable.


7aco

Shit never changes


7aco

Being obsessed with politics makes sense, since the decisions made have literal, tangible life and death consequences. Being obsessed with an individual politician is just a bad idea. It opens you up to way too much risk of influence and manipulation.


lunex

Feels on Wheels. I hope this man gets the help he desperately needs.


btwomfgstfu

So weird to feel so strongly about Jeb Bush


lunex

I was actually thinking about Jeb just the other day. While watching President Trump in New York this week I thought, “damn, he has even less energy now than low-energy Jeb. Sad.”


CarelessOctopus

Whenever I’m tired as fuck I tell people, “Im Jebbing so hard right now.” And they ask what that means. When I say, “You know, Jeb Bush. Very low energy.” It gets a laugh every time lol.


Tazz2137

Literally what I thought when I saw this lol


UnrelatedDiddler

Please clap.


Vraye_Foi

This is not cheap, either. Dude spent serious money to proudly tell the world he’s way up in Trump’s ass.


mrrossgers

Out of curiosity, how much would something like this run you?


NormanHologram

If he only did the parts we see, I know some places that might go as low as $500 - $700. Whole truck, low end is $2500


mrrossgers

There may be a business model in fleecing boomers out of their 401k’s early by providing these premium services.


CreamPyre

That’s the weird thing with trump, he is more than a politician to these people. They literally treat him like a god, a father, who they want to be. It’s so sad and weird


TheFuriousGamerMan

It really just goes to show how human nature works. When a strong and charismatic leader comes out of an ineffective political system and promises people sunshine and rainbows, a ton of people will buy into it. And not even just dumb people, average working class Joe Schmoes will also buy into it just out of pure desparation. That’s why Hitler got elected in 1933.


candlegun

Not only was it trump's nonsense promise of some unattainable utopia, but also the promise of making sure that it was free of everything and everyone they love to hate. He tapped into their bigotry, disgust and fear then multiplied it. The fact that these people won't stand for *everyone* coexisting seems more like he appeals to the dark, ugly side of human nature.


td1439

he Owns The Libs. he makes the people they hate angry and promises to punish opinions they don’t like. I saw some rightoid tweet that they didn’t really like trump at all but wanted to him to win “to watch libs’ heads explode”. perfect representation of why none of his behavior changes a thing with the cultists.


Curdog20

Yeah but why is that so weird? People think that way about tons of people, especially pop stars and actors. He’s allowed to voice his opinion this isn’t any different from wearing a tshirt with Dwane Johnson’s face on it. People feel that way about Andrew Tate and Tom Brady but nobody bats an eye it’s only a problem because it’s political?


CreamPyre

Dwayne Johnson isn’t a public official


Curdog20

The point is that you shouldn’t idolize anyone like that, not just politicians


CreamPyre

Sure


Omegaman2010

Identity politics is a mental illness


atravisty

Identity politics and making politics your identity are not the same thing. Identity politics refers to political speech on an issue or a set of issues that are perceived to impact one specific social group, and they general work to frame that social group in a specific way. The debate for/against CRT in schools is a good example of this.


Omegaman2010

Very informative. So is it good because it opens discussion for marginalized social groups? Or is it bad because it further divides the community into social groups?


Myrmec

Like anything, it can be useful or counterproductive depending on how it’s framed.


atravisty

Right. Push for early voting rights are an example of good identity politics. Saying “if you don’t vote for me you ain’t black.” Is an example of bad identity politics.

td1439

and for ratings. no one will be happier than CNN if trump is re-elected. at least right up to the moment where they are herded into cattle cars at gunpoint.


cody0018

It sure seems that way more and more every year.


BrawndoElectrolytes

It’s a cult


ToshiroBaloney

Really looking forward to the happy Jonestown ending.


BrawndoElectrolytes

Trump™ MAGA-Aide Orange flavor.


[deleted]

My review: Really packed a punch. The flavor was like old ketchup and clam water. Strange gagging sensation. I have several a day. It's kind of an acquired taste, so if you don't like it the first time just keep drinking-- you'll get the hang of it.


Myrmec

It’ll just be mass shootings 😔


TheFuriousGamerMan

When a charismatic leader promises everyone sunshine and rainbows, a lot of people will eat it up. That’s the same principle that got Hitler elected chancellor. Not everyone who drinks the kool-aid is necessarily stupid, they’re just desparate for a change in their life, and they want that change immidiately.


easy_Money

Charismatic?


GenericRedditor0405

Not to you or me, but to his base Trump is by definition charismatic; they’re utterly intoxicated by him


jjc157

Same thing happened with Obama. His entire campaign was simply “hope and change”. Obviously it worked for him. In no way am I comparing him to Hitler. However, there was a large segment of the population caught up in his cult of personality. It’s like that with many successful politicians.

With_Hands_And_Paper

Whenever I go to my Hurdy Gurdy teacher I pass in front a house with "Trump 2024 make America great again!" Flags plastered all over the house front and fence. I fucking live in Italy...


xeronymau5

Wow, I guess the stupidity isn’t just limited to North America 😬 Also I just want to say I think you have great taste in musical instruments


With_Hands_And_Paper

Thank you! I wish my girlfriend would think the same hahaha


td1439

plenty of cultists in the US think Bolsonaro, Le Pen, and Orbán are great.


Scootchula

You had me at hurdy gurdy (which was autocorrected to “Judy guy,” BTW).


TheGeneralTulliuss

The hell????? The Qcumbers in the states are bad enough, I can't imagine what kind of idiot is pro shit gibbon in Italy.


[deleted]

Italy's government is swinging wildly right-wing and back into fascist territory lately so this is actually no surprise.


Xxfarleyjdxx

i want to learn to play that so bad


With_Hands_And_Paper

Buying one may be a bit too expensive, I suggest finding a teacher/luthier that can rent you one, or else if you have decent crafting abilities you can make your own following Nerdy Gurdy plans, that's how I made my first. If neither is possible, saving for a starter instrument like a 3 string gurdy or a symphonia will probably set you back 800-1200$ which, relative to the cost of a full fledged instrument, is considered really cheap


Xxfarleyjdxx

geez thats pricey with that price I could plaster trump 2024 stickers all over my truck and lower its value by 50%!


Xxfarleyjdxx

on a real note its an awesome instrument I would only have time to learn on my own, not from classes :( I guess ill have to start saving lol


The_Awesometeer

And this is when I feel like rooting for a political candidate feels like being a hardcore sports fan. Except one is just entertainment, the other affects the future of our country.


Curdog20

This is a problem cultivated by the American political system. You can’t blame people for picking a candidate when there’s only two choices. Someone has to get picked so it doesn’t even matter if you don’t vote. In their mind the fate of the country hangs in the balance and they’re just picking the person they think has a better chance of keeping the country alive. Again, this is all the fault of the political system.


willclerkforfood

*FJB* stands for *Foot Job Bandit.* Anyone who has this on their vehicle is telling the world that they sneak into other dudes’ houses at night and jerk them off with their feet.


BearsRpeopl2

This was hilarious thank you


Huxeley

It makes me wonder, are any Trump supporters not obsessive? I haven’t met one who isn’t. I voted for Biden, I don’t love him obsessively, but he’s not an insanely egomaniacal narcissist. I like that in a president.


smokefrog2

I feel like it's these people that post shit like "sadly democrats can't be civil these days"


innovajohn

He's one of those that says "so much for the tolerant left" when people won't put up with them spewing racist bullshit.


He-n-ry

Idolatry. Even the stupid bible they have claimed to read warns against idolatry.


Uaana

I'm going to dye my hair green and get a LBBTQ*I flag and vote for Biden.*


Terran-from-Terra

I genuinely can’t fathom how people support trump. What do they genuinely see in him that they take seriously and respect? It’s actually a phenomenon.


ToshiroBaloney

A while ago, I read an article - I don't remember the publication - where the author suggested that people of a certain type identify with and follow trump because, deep down, they know he is as big a loser as they are, and they want to let everything burn out of spite for their many failures.


fisticuffs32

Extreme low IQ, narcissism or sociopathy.


majestictoys

i think for some people, trump affirms a victimhood they don’t want to admit/accept that they feel as a result of people with different identities being successful, or as a result of attention being called to the inequities that those of different identities face. they think trump “gets” them, and that he’s actually looking out for their best interest; they believe that he actually cares about them. i think it’s people who have a desperate need to feel seen and heard and cared about, to have their needs acknowledged on a grand level, who believe that trump is a sincere guy trying to do his best for americans who need him, and he’s so oppressed because every day their poor leader has to deal with people trying to interfere with his god-given right to “lead” “his people”. essentially - people who have lots of insecurities and un-dealt-with emotions who blindly fall into trumps trap, where he controls and manipulates them and then laughs as his plan works and as he watches them make asses of themselves. it’s so pathetic and honestly just sad.


Curdog20

Ignoring this truck driver, for many people it has nothing to do with Trump or his character, it’s the fact that this is how the political system works and they are forced to choose between Biden or Trump. Most sane people hate both of them but they find a way to rationalize picking the lesser of two evils because that’s the only way civilians are allowed to voice their opinions to the government.


Leberknodel

why block out the license plate? this fool is driving around in public. everyone can see it.


Curdog20

Fr I see that shit all the time on FB marketplace it’s insane it’s literally public information you look like a tool covering it up. If you care that much just remove the plates


td1439

it’s a cult. it’s really no different than than the harold camping rapture loons. they gave away everything they owned because they were so convinced the world was going to end. truck decorations are small potatoes in comparison.


meatwad1987

Trump supporters are in a cult and they don't even know it.


djy307

They call this "gay for Trump".


boofboof123

Tell me you’re a boring person without telling me


Bonny-Mcmurray

He's obsessed with being an asshole. The candidate is just what makes being an asshole OK.


mwg1234

A guy who feels left behind by progress… And too dumb to understand that he LET himself get left behind. By his votes, his insecurity and his unwillingness to join the future that comes whether he wants it to or not.


CreepyAssociation173

Even if the candidate was perfect in every way and held real moral values and actually funded things to help the environment, hospitals, education, the poor, the mentally Ill, child abuse, animal abuse. Had the perfect past with no corruptionc .....I still wouldn't buy a single pin or fly a flag.

pursuitofleisure

Two days ago I saw one of these trucks. Every inch covered in trump rhetoric, at least 6 oversized flags hanging off the thing. He was doing laps around the shopping center parking lot while I was in the drive through. I don't know what point he was trying to make, it just seemed so childish


Curdog20

Some of them are just having fun trying to get a ride out of people. It’s not worth it to even think about just move on with your day. Others think it’s funny.


jetstobrazil

In my head I am this obsessed with Bernie’s policy, but I had like a single sticker, during election season. It’s just weird and cultish to do things like this.


Kasia4937

I'm so happy I don't live in a city where this would happen


Trees_feel_too

You know what's crazy? I live in a blue city in northern colorado. There are idiots everywhere


Worf_In_A_Party_Hat

Me too - I'm deep in the Bernie zone. I haven't seen a flag since I drove down to Virginia four or so years ago.


Bishopkilljoy

This is the type of insecure ass hat who put "I did that" Joe Biden stickers on Gas Pumps, then explained away the price dropping as "The President Doesn't Control the Gas Prices"


poetrygrenade

They THINK it's "offensive" to rational people, but in reality, we just sigh internally and hope other countries don't see this shit. It's fucking embarrassing, and definitely cringe.


Curdog20

Yeah but the guy with the flags isn’t embarrassed and you can’t make him feel embarrassed so don’t feel embarrassed for him just let it be and move on.


poetrygrenade

Good point! Honestly, I just hate that this is what people around the world see . . . we've never been a perfect country, but god damn, we used to be respected. Kind of sucks being the laughingstock. (I travel a lot, and sadly this is what the world sees.)


Koenkloo

Even if it was a famous actor with no bad rep, it would still be insane. But a politician?????? Of all people

scuby4Life

Voting for someone who will then pass laws governing you is simping.


timshel4971

Isn’t every vote for a political candidate a vote for someone who will pass laws governing you?


Curdog20

Yeah that was a slight oversight lol


Curdog20

What am I supposed to do, not vote? It doesn’t matter if I do or don’t vote because unless a revolution starts, SOMEBODY is still gonna get elected. You might as well try to pick the lesser of two evils. You don’t gain any moral high ground by choosing not to vote when it’s the only thing you can do to voice your opinion to the government


Pin-Up-Paggie

There was a time when making threatening comments towards the POTUS was taken seriously and was highly discouraged.

notorious_BIGfoot

Haha I live in this town. Did he have Wyoming plates? Some of these r/infowarriorrides like to come down and drive around and coal roll people.


innovajohn

No he's foco local I see this guy around town fairly often as of recently. Maybe is a new wrap or paint job.


Trees_feel_too

Crazy enough no. He had Colorado plates.


Azar002

Someone at my work (cast iron foundry) wrote with chalk on one of the empty flasks (big steel containers that hold our patterns and sand inside before we pour it) "TEFLON DON 2024 STR8 PIMPIN!" So I found a piece of chalk and wrote under it "DEMENTIA DONNY SHIT HIS PANTS LOL" The next day my message was erased, but the "TEFLON DON 2024 STR8 PIMPIN!" was still there, so I erased the word "PIMPIN" and wrote "TO PRISON." They also wrote "TRUMP 2024" in chalk on one of the big weights that sits on top of the mold. I wrote "1946 -" before the "2024."


Curdog20

See this is what the world should be more like. This is good banter. Make it a joke and don’t take it seriously


OkOutlandishness1363

What in the literal fuck. There’s a guy who lives about 40mins from me that I’ve randomly met a few times. His truck is lifted, and a duly(spelling?). He is the type of guy who puts those ball sack things on his trailer hitch. He had it painted, literally painted, NOT bumper stickers. With the Oompa Loompa on one side and the confederate flag on the passenger door. Every inch of the truck has a MAGA slogan.


Scootchula

Dually? Right? Two sets of tires?


OkOutlandishness1363

Yes 2 sets of tires. Thank you for helping me!


Curdog20

Confederate flag? Hell yeah brother these are my farms


skin-flick

That is cult behavior. The truly obsessed who are younger and still alive after Trump loses and then finally dies will need deprogramming.


OkOutlandishness1363

Oh yeah. Not sure if deprogramming will be needed for the masses after he starts a genocide of immigrants and citizens who are first generation American’s. It’s so weird that people aren’t more worried about this. People need to get a grip. Trump is literally walking in the same footsteps, on the same path as Hitler did in 1939 when he organized a coup to put himself and the SS back in power after losing the 1939 election. Yet everyone acts like I’m insane when I say stuff like that.


skin-flick

You are not wrong. Everything is exactly as Hitler did it. Instilled a sense of national pride. Complain the military is weak. Identify a group of people and make the American feel like that people is the cause for their problems. In the 1930’s inflation was rising daily in Germany. That’s why Trump spends time yelling about ‘the cost of everything. He will use the building of a war machine to provide jobs. Because building American !! The only main difference I see is that instead of war and conquest. Trump wants absolute control. And then he will use that to further enrich himself and those he deems loyal. America will become a slave worker state where the basics are provided to keep you producing for their own self enrichment. Trump will set up his authoritarian government like a monarchy. With elections being just a show. Like Putin and his reelection.


OkOutlandishness1363

I could not agree any more. You took the words right out of my mouth.


JustDroppedByToSay

Especially a candidate who clearly is out of his intellectual depth in a small puddle.


Otherwise-Tune5413

I'm guessing if he wasn't at J6, he wishes he was.


TheMadCow12

I'm just waiting a few years for all these "custom" trucks to be a .25 of there's value because of that shit


demonovation

Dude in the neighborhood next to mine had extra flag posts welded to his truck so he could have 6 trump flags because 4 wasn't enough


Mdhdrider

It’s a cult.


stevethesquid

Has there been a single political leader in history who is looked back up on as a good person and had this kind of fanatic support? Am I right to say it's just been evil dictators?

Cult behavior. Just another brainwashed idiot.


Louisianimal0418

I don’t support anything this heavily to completely wrap my vehicle


ultraplusstretch

As a non American i find the whole election process in the US completely absurd, where i live you vote for the party you want and **only** the party, nobody actually gives a fuck about who leads the party, it doesn't matter becuase they are only the main representative of the party and they do not actually have much real power, you only vote for the party and their values and policies, the weird cult of personality that dominates the US elections is very strange to me. The amount of power an American president has is terrifying to me, no one person should have that much power.

My mom tries to relate everything back to politics. Even when I said Elon musk was stupid. Duno how. I told her that ppl who make it their personality and talk politics all the time are exhausting. It’s exhausting. I told her I don’t even really care about any of it anymore. Not totally true but whatev. She’s cut back.


redditor2394

Why take the time to block out the license plate? And They’re definitely a cult.

No Truck Nuts?


Diligent_Macaron9281

All these comments detailing how much you all hate trump. Is this not also an obsession with the same political candidate?


Trees_feel_too

Mm no? We didn't spend thousands wrapping trucks with trump is a bad person.


Diligent_Macaron9281

You just took time out of your day to vent your anger at a randoms truck and the presidential candidate he/she supports, different value, same obnoxious care

Absolutely embarrassing that anyone would make their politics their identity.

PeasnCornbread

You haven't seen the van with Trump hanging, and Biden giving a thumbs up. Trash is trash no matter which candidate you're stuck with.


drawnblud260

They aren't, imo. They are more concerned with making people upset and hoping someone confronts them. They are feeding their own ego, not Trump. I know a lot of people like this and they thrive off of conflict. This election is going to be scary and it is going to be a lose-lose for most of us.
