I've noticed a few Trump Supporters again dismissing or making excuses for Trump.
things LIKE
He's not really this or that type of bad guy...
He has to say this or that because he's running for office...
etc etc .
Those defenses of Trump are weird to me on a lot of levels especially the "he HAS TO SAY" type defenses. Especially when supporters also claim that he DOESN'T "Pander".
And also say that one the reasons they really like him is because he's NOT PC.
there's something else going on. because very little of what Trump supporters claim about Trump's positives are true or compelling.
And the negatives... if honestly admitted too... should repel most conservatives.
here are few of the thing Trump supporters ignore and/or make excuses for.
TRUMP'S Draft Dodging

Trump speaking of Prep School
"I always felt like I was in the military. (I got) more training militarily than a lot of the guys that go into the military."
Trump's Idiotic Insensitive Military Commentary
....Donald Trump unwittingly lit the fuses of combat veterans from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq when he decided to talk IEDs during a pre-caucus rally in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Monday.The controversial quote came while Trump discussed the situation for troops on the ground in the Middle East, as told to him by a friend's son. According to the young combat vet, Trump said, "the enemy has the good stuff" because when American troops attempt to give equipment to parties perceived as being U.S. allies on the ground, they instead rob U.S. forces. Trump, looking to emphasize the severity of the equipment loss, decided to praise Humvees as part of said "good stuff."
"If a bomb goes off, our wounded warriors, instead of losing their legs, their arms, worse, they're okay," Trump told the crowd. "They go for a little ride upward, and they come down. The best stuff, all gone. Taken by the enemy."...
Trump's racial Discriminator History
Trumps supporters early in the camping have beaten up, knocked down, dragged out, ripped up peoples signs and spat in the faces those they didn't like. whether they are loud protesters or sitting quietly. And Trump encouraged it to the point of saying he'd pay for legal fees and said those beaten at his rallies "deserved it". Kicking hispanic Reporters out of his press meetings and assuming they are citizens. General stereotyping of minorities and stupid race based commentary.
•Trump systematically kicking Blacks, women and other minorities out his biz because their presence somehow offends some customer and allowing that "good" customer to treat blacks badly. Shuffling blacks, women and other minority staff into to back rooms when Trumps "friends" were on the Casino or hotel floor?
..At the time, New Jersey state regulators had launched an investigation into allegations by nine employees of one of Trump’s Atlantic City casinos, the Trump Plaza, that the hotel had repeatedly removed African-Americans and women from craps tables after LiButti, one of the highest-rolling gamblers in the city’s history, loudly complained about their presence when he was playing. The probe resulted in a $200,000 fine against the Trump Plaza by the New Jersey Casino Control Commission for violating state anti-discrimination laws. Investigators found that LiButti had, on multiple occasions, berated blacks and women using what one state official described as the “vilest” language — including racist slurs and references to women in obscene terms — and that the TrumpPlaza, in order not to lose his substantial business, sought to accommodate him by keeping the employees away from his betting tables, according to commission documents recently obtained by Yahoo News under the New Jersey Open Public Records Act.

•There was a well publicized rape case in NewYork, Trump took a full page against the 5 black teens ACCUSED of the crime. they were later found NOT guilty.

"... he took out full-page newspaper ads calling for the death penalty for the African-American teenage suspects -- who were all later exonerated."

I've read elsewhere that after the 5 were found innocent Trump still wanted them in jail for some reason. Can we think any reasons he MIGHT have?
•At his Apartments

"...Trump Management settled the case, promising not to discriminate against blacks, Puerto Ricans and other minorities. As part of the agreement, Trump was required to send its list of vacancies in its 15,000 apartments to a civil-rights group, giving them first priority in providing applicants for certain apartments, according to a contemperaneous New York Times account. Trump, who emphasized that the agreement was not an admission of guilt, later crowed that he was satisfied because it did not require them to “accept persons on welfare as tenants unless as qualified as any other tenant.”
But the company didn’t sufficiently fulfill its promise, because three years later, the Justice Department charged Trump Management with continuing to discriminate against blacks through such tactics as telling them that apartments were not available. As part of its demands, the government asked that victims of discrimination be compensated and that Trump Management continue to report to the Justice Department on its compliance...

Trump's Repeated insults to woman
Does it need to be documented?
Trump's repeated ridiculous statements and reserves on them.
Does it need to be documented? "kill women who abort" " using false stats on race in tweets"
Trump's repeated Unconstitutional proposals
...Here's a question for you to puzzle over. Can you name the single most unconstitutional thing Donald Trump has proposed or endorsed so far in the 2016 presidential race?Not an easy question to answer, is it? Do you start with Trump's efforts to suppress immigration by gutting the 14th Amendment (https://reason.com/archives/2015/11/10/trump-vs-the-constitution/)? Or do you perhaps point to Trump's long war on the Fifth Amendment and its protections for property rights, as exemplified by Trump's embrace of boundless eminent domain powers for the government and Trump's own shameful record (https://reason.com/blog/2015/10/07/donald-trumps-shameful-eminent-domain-ab) of seeking to personally profit when government officials seize homes and businesses and then hand the bulldozed land over to crony capitalist real estate developers?
Either of the above could serve as an answer to my opening question. But when it comes to Trump's unconstitutional agenda, there are plenty of other noxious options to choose from...."
those are just the start
Trump's Support of Universal Health Care
And of course there's more but there's enough above that would make most Republicans question anyone with a list of "qualifications" like the above. if they weren't attached to the Film Falming campaigning style of the Trump.
I'm sure there will be a list of EXCUSES or Denails.
But the claims that "HE's Better than Hillary" are NOT compelling at all.
C'mon saying Horse Crap is better than Dog Crap isn't something to really get excited about.
