Since Corey Comperatore was shot and killed by a now deceased gunman during Donald Trump's Butler, Pennsylvania rally Saturday, the former fire chief's family has yet to hear from the ex-president, according to his wife, Helen Comperatore.Per TODAY, Corey "Comperatore was an avid Trump supporter who...
One day she’ll realize that after her husband was killed, the candidate she supports cared more about his shoes than about him.
Sadly, she won’t realize shit. These people don’t have revelations about who they support politically. They bury their heads in the sand eternally. I still know people who are die hard George W Bush supporters and think he was the best president we’ve ever had.
Honest question: do those folks say that because of how that campaign and presidency made them feel at the time, or is it honestly based in policy, politics, or something else tangible? Thank you.

And some are just bullshit contrarians who want to shut the people up who tout Obama and Biden’s accomplishments.
Thanks for the insightful reply. I appreciate it.
Americans–especially those older–tend to hold favorable views of past presidents even if they didn’t approve of them in office. W had a majority favorable opinion even among Democrats in 2018, and I wouldn’t be surprised if the number were higher now.

But no, he needed to stand on stage AND at his get away vehicle to throw his fist up like he personally took down the gunmen.
I cringed watching the SS try to get him to safety and he refused. I was just hoping no one else was going to get shot while he tried to be some kind of “hero”.
Doubtful.
Why am I getting downvoted?
People think this lady is smart enough to engage in critical thinking later, despite what we’ve seen from her?
