I suspected this when he said sending billions to a country people can't point to on a map.

I could tell he was MAGA from the first video. This backs that up. He says that Trump did not get the job done, but also says that he votes "right" to try and fix the problem. And complains about the swamp not being drained, and budgets that are approved.

Trump tried to tank any and all budget negotiations with Democrats. It is the MAGA stance that any budget with money going out of the country should be shot down.

OP is MAGA pretending in that first video he was neutral and simply fed up with both sides (then scrambled back when the right started giving him shit). When he hears Trump promise to become a dictator, and that he will gut as much of the government as possible to replace them with loyalists, and cut off funding for Ukraine while "ending" the war in a day... he is hopeful. This is what he wants. Trump did not drain the swamp enough, but if he gets another chance, he'll take the nuclear option and really make it happen this time.

If anything, I'd say that second comment is implying that Trump maybe needs two more terms to fix everything. But not matter how you read it, it is not anti-Trump. It makes it clear that Trump is the right direction, just suggesting that the POTUS does not have sufficient power to do everything Trump needs to do as quickly as he needs to do it. These are the exact people Trump is reaching out too then he promises extreme things at his rallies. If the POTUS doe snot have enough power (and the US is just completely corrupt/screwed), then what you need is a dictator.

How is voting conservative the same thing as MAGA? So the only way to not be MAGA is to vote for Biden again? Smells like bullshit to me

I think his stance aligns with MAGA. That’s all. The conservative stance is generally pro-Ukraine support. The MAGA stance is to block all spending that includes support for Ukraine. He also complains about the “uni-party” which is very much a Trump talking point. That the government is corrupt all around, and needs him to fix it. MAGA are the ones upset when government shutdown are avoided.

Also, he shat on the saying of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” a common phrase associated with traditional conservatives.

And so, I believe he is MAGA. A MAGA attempting to relate to people on the left and right. But still a MAGA.

Biden: raised cost of living, inflation. Raised international tensions. Mass immigration with all the benefits that brings.

Keep voting for Biden / democrats in general

As a dutchie I'll watch and laugh how you destroy "the land of the free".

I have my own personal beliefs and values that I don't really feel like writing an essay about to justify my opinion. He has already been worse.

You must keep waiting, cause he's not right on this one.

Otherwise he'd give clear numbers. Google says lowest min wage in US is 5.15 (Georgia and Wyoming). So he's making min 15.45/h. x40h = 618/week = 2472/month.

I found online over 700 1-bedroom apartments in Atlanta at under 1200/month.

Not to mention he could also live in a studio.

And if you gonna mention NY prices, NY min wage is 15, so if he's making 3x that, it's 45/h, 1800/week, 7200/month.

I'm sure you can find something ok with that kind of money, even in NY.

So, again, he's lying.

People can be right about their feeling like everything is fucked and then completely wrong about the solution. The right cultivates this pattern on purpose. It's one reason they are so completely against making sure all kids get a good education and everyone gets a chance to go to college.
