I always knew they'd turn on Trump eventually, but I thought it would be until he's out of office, not 3 months in. I guess the Trump Personality Cult isn't as strong as I thought.

The Trump Personality Cult formed around what people imagined Donnie would be like as president. During the campaign, he existed in a state of quantum political uncertainty, where his position on any given topic was dependant on the observer. Now that he has been elected, and collapsed into just Donald Trump, failed billionaire wannabe, how could he ever hope to compare to the Donald Trump which existed in each of their hearts?

It feels like we're coming to a turning point in Freeper history, where the dwindling number of users able to parse the situation for what it is are expunged by decades of right-wing propaganda like a meager batch of in-tact brain cells finally overtaken by a virulent protist. Relatively speaking, of course.

^ Yeah, I remember hearing a lot of "Well he'll change once he wins" bullshit. He's acted this way all his life because he could get away with it. You think he's going to suddenly change? I'd like to see how many of the dumbshits that thought that fell for Nigerian email scams. I'll bet a huge percent of them did.

Reading these Freeper posts without paying much attention to the actual content, but concentrating more on the way that they write, takes me way back to a forum I used to participate in. It was originally a kind of science and tech forum but morphed into a general watercooler type place with some discussion of science, tech, politics etc. It was briefly notorious as the place where noted autist Ulililia posted a lot. Anyhow, the admin there was some old guy who used to be a chicken farmer but had retired and moved to the city, he was pretty unpleasant and his insistence on being right in any given situation contrasted nicely with his utter lack of understanding of the topic he was holding forth on. He ran a few of the more moderate guys off the forum just through his incessant habit of turning even the smallest disagreement into a full on personal attack. He wrote in precisely the same way that 99% of Freepers do (he probably is a Freeper or at least in their target audience anyhow). The randomly capitalised WORDS for emphasis, the unnecessary 'quotes' and the general tone of 'I'm just asking questions but you have to accept all my priors without hesitation' are a perfect match for Freepland. Anyway, that's my story about dealing with old people on the internet. Thanks.

A few of them are already saying "If Trump doesn't get his act together I'm not supporting him anymore." They're absolutely willing to accept Trump can fail, but it won't be because of who Trump is. It'll be because the "Deep State" and vast conspiracies took him down, and Trump tried his best but he just couldn't defeat such powerful foes. I've said before but it's a stark change from before the election. Freep said Trump would kick the asses of all those RINOs in Congress and drain the swamp and Trump is a guy who won't be intimidated by the political elite. And now you see Freepers saying "Well how is Trump possibly supposed to fight off the conspiracy between Ryan and Obama and Hillary? He's just one guy!"

It's a tiny bit more complicated than that; FDR probably did want to go to war in Europe, but for economic reasons (England and France were major trading partners, Nazi Germany not so much) but it was an extremely unpopular idea with the man on the street. That's why we had the lend-lease programs; we couldn't get the popular support to safely enter the war, but no one complained about selling/"lending" as much hardware as we could make to the countries that were involved. The administration basically used the Japanese-Nazi alliance as a pretext to enter the European theater so we could protect our trading partners.
