He is protected by a network of complicit individuals. There needs to be no order to censor or invent. Every single person, down to the voters, knows they have to do everything they can to keep him in power. For Trump is truly the person protecting them at this point.
Nah they're fascists and Trump has proved to be an effective means to their ends. It's not about "bars" or "lines being crossed. If he stops achieving their goals they'll abandon him for someone who will continue their agenda, but that is it.
Unlikely to happen, since there's an email in the archives saying that Trump didn't want to even be anywhere near black girls, so don't bring one since Trump was going to be present at some event.
They will only abandon him if he starts working against their interests or doesn't do enough to further them.
He can literally kill a man on 5th Avenue right right now and as you say they'll likely put it up as a fake AI video or any other excuse they can come up with.
This. The epstein files literally outed him as being with a man. There was never a line to be crossed. Its simply about validating and legitimizing their own "superiority" and legalizing their hate. Trump is just the most visible symptom of a greater cancer.
This is now and has always been how evangelicals are. They have a particular outcome (really an awful one, literally armageddon FYI) and they will work backwards to justify anything and everything if they think it aligns with that outcome. It's literally the same reason there are flat earthers.
Nah, in order to claim to repent he would have to admit he did something wrong, which he can't. He would call it a Democratic hoax, then have a 140-tweet-long meltdown about it, then tell everyone they should stop talking about it
You're giving Maga too much credit. There is nothing that will stop the propaganda machine. Except for Trump being bad for political projects of the billionaires who own the propaganda machines. As long as Elon, Bezos and Theil, etc are happy, they will manipulate Maga to stay with him.
He could have an orgy with them on stage in front of his base and then vivisect a baby and shoot 5 children in the head and he wouldn't lose a single voter.
They won't need to. They will deny all the evidence. Like we see with the ICE murders. We have dozens of clear recordings of both, yet the administration calls the victims domestic terrorists and MAGA believe it.
Yeah what was the best case scenario there? Literally no one they liked would be implicated in the "cabal of global elite pedophiles" or whatever Bannon was helping spew?
I'm curious to see if there's more to this whole "blowing Bubba" thing (words that were not on my end times bingo card but here we are). Given how "protect our kids" that crowd is, I would have thought the pedo shit would have been enough, but it doesn't seem like it.
Just like any other stance they have: More guns unless it's black people, less gov unless it's something we want to stop, lower taxes unless it's on poor people, protect the kids unless it's from powerful people, religion in school unless it's not my brand of christian, arrest journalists unless they flatter us It's kickbacks all the way down

Even then they'll find excuses for him, until the fucking end.
albakSPrince
No, nothing like that. They won't care. Bezos and Musk offer him a billion to name Catholicism the national religion. They'd lose their fucking minds

Hopefully in the last 7 years you've learned to stop using the term "transsexual".

Well, we're actually already at 1/3, the Epstein files mention him giving a blowjob to Bill Clinton.

He could be on TV fucking Satan and it wouldn't matter to him.
PleaseRespectMyAsshole
They still wouldn't abandon him, they would just say that it's fake news or that the "dems made it up!"
They are literally supporting pedophilia now, there is nothing that is to low for them.

They'd likely cheer it on if the aforementioned was being subjected to some vile domination-type stuff.

thats only if he's bottoming. if he was on top they'd probably just cheer.

A dead girl AND a live boy, they might consider abandoning him

taez555
After finding out he got a BJ from bubba, I guess you overestimated their ability to abandon him.
Kyzyl
In the email it was implied that Trump was the one providing the blowing service to this "Bubba"
Speculation still abounds as to who/what Bubba is. Could be Clinton, could be a horse. Could be Florida radio host Bubba the Love Sponge.
Only Peter Thiel's Palintir knows for sure.
mak10z
he was on the giving side of 'bubba', not the receiving
reichtwinglunatic
i think you got the roles reversed here?
taez555
Oh yeah, my bad. :-) It's so out of character for Trump to be the giver. Force of habit I guess. :-)
gumshoe99
What about all three at once?

Nah, they'll excuse. Every single time. They think he's not actually doing what all the evidence shows he's doing.

They won't need to. They will deny all the evidence. Like we see with the ICE murders. We have dozens of clear recordings of both, yet the administration calls the victims domestic terrorists and MAGA believe it.
foreverinchains
It's worse than that.
Too many of them accept that he's done everything the evidence shows he's done, and they don't care because he's hurting the people they don't like.
These people will continue to support him regardless of what he does, as long as he continues hurting those people.

It was never about protecting kids. It has always been about power and control.
