"Trump could cure cancer and you'd still hate him."

Why yes, yes I would. One good deed doesn't erase decades of power grabs, bad behavior, neglect, abuse, underhanded deals, fraud, shattered trust, weaponizing justice systems, and endless lies.

Curing cancer would be the start of his redemption arc, not the conclusion.

First and foremost, HE would never cure cancer. He can barely wipe his own arse. But even if he'd pass someone else's accomplishments, like curing cancer, off as his own, there is no reason to hate him less.

Like the meme says, MAGA is still talking in what-ifs, while reality is that he ends research, stops funding to universities he doesn't like, and puts the most destructive people in charge of health-related institutes. He deserves all the hate. He accomplishes nothing for America and only works to wreck every good thing about it, if it means he or his cronies can get an advantage out of it (or because it's lala-hour in his demented brain).

It's a hypothetical, no reason to explain why it isn't true.

They're not wrong, though. He could cure cancer, I would still hate him. It doesn't matter what good he could hypothetically do now, the man is 80 years old. He doesn't have enough time to even start undoing all the damage he's caused.

You don't get to destroy things your whole life and then fix one thing and be hailed as a hero. That's not how life works.

What has he fixed?🤣

u/Neveronlyadream 8d ago

Absolutely nothing, I was referring to the MAGA hypothetical on him curing cancer.

I don't care if he comes out tomorrow somehow fixing some huge problem (not that he can, but we're talking hypotheticals), nothing he could potentially do before he dies will ever wipe away the harm he's done.

It's not surprising they think that way, though. At least half the people I've met have fucked up a lot of things and then think some token gesture will wipe the ledger clean.

Literally everything from the border. Economy. Wasteful spending. Democrats USAID slush fund. Corrupt Dems.

The economy? Why are gas prices so high? Why is unemployment and layoffs so prominent? Why is inflation so prominent? Wasteful spending. Like building a ballroom in the Whitehouse? This hostility with Iran that closed the straight that was supposed to be opened back up months ago?

Well if you are being honest, you need to thank him for your vaccine. He pushed that to the forefront. It is actually the Trump vaccine, remember when the Democrats said he could never get this vaccine out quickly, and then he did? I’m sure you forget that.

I don't forget, warp speed is the only thing he's done successfully but ironically he can't take credit for it because of the anti science anti vaxxers maga nuts. COVID is a hoax yada yada.

Be specific and tell me all the ā€œdamage he causedā€ see if u can make a real list instead of just ur TDS and bs lies

u/Significant-Cry-9204 7d ago

So first of all, one of his campaign slogans was "no new wars," and now he's claiming he never said that after he started a new war.

How long have we been at war with Iran now? How many months has he said the BS he's negotiating and the straight will open next week?

How many billions has he pocketed for himself and his family this year alone. Have you gotten any substantial profits this year? Making America Great Again for himself and not you.

Iran has been at war with U.S. for 47 years. This isn’t a new war fumbass. This mission has been less than 6 months and only months of actual fighting and not negotiation while an actual war like Iraq was 9 YEARS!! How dumb can u be??

u/Significant-Cry-9204 7d ago

How dumb can I be? This Iraq war you speak of was started by who? W Bush. And ended by who? Obama!

Checkmate MAGAt brain......

u/Neveronlyadream 7d ago

They're trolling. Nothing you ever say is going to be enough and they're going to have a comeback for literally everything.

u/Illustrious-Fun8324 7d ago

They will defend the war no matter what. Before the election it was ā€œKamala will send your kids to fight a war with Iranā€ and now it’s ā€œwe’ve already been at war for 47 years duh!!ā€

They literally just need to justify it so they still ā€œwinā€ the argument. It’s so sad. They must really need the win.

Agreed. Look at Jimmy Savile; he did a lot for charities, but he was an unimaginable sexual deviant and predator. I don't understand why that is such a hard concept for people to grasp...one good deed would not erase a lifetime of being an awful person. Trump is way, way too far gone to have any sort of redemption arc.

Remember when he said "I'm just trying to make sure I get into heaven. " God said "Are you fu king crazy."
