51 Reasons Why Stupid Trump Supporters Are So Exhausting

I’ve had an awakening.

Today, I uncovered and blocked yet another Trump supporter. This one was a friend of a friend on Facebook. He came at me with a completely inane comment that accosted my eye as I was innocently scrolling by.

I told him he was wrong, he screamed five insane things at me, so I blocked him! Now I can endure blessed, peaceful sanity until I uncover the next lurking Trump supporting nitwit.

Expelling these ignorant loudmouths is completely worth it. At first, the task seems impossibly daunting like cleaning your house or getting out of debt.

They’re like an infestation, they’re everywhere, but once you make progress in banishing them, the world becomes oh so much calmer and better and more beautiful.

I can keep blocking them all day, just like Captain America. Block! Block! Block! I’m talking Facebook profiles, Twitter accounts, Phone numbers and real life. It’s like they don’t even exist. They’ve been banished from the Earth.

Gone.

Goodbye!

Sayonara!

And once they’re gone, you have so much ENERGY! Imagine what it’s like to not have your every waking sense of reality second guessed CONSTANTLY because the facts of the world irritate pathetic little man-children.

Chances are you don’t even know how much you accommodate these Neanderthals. Moving out of the way for a bunch of jerks in business suits on a crowded sidewalk is nothing compared to the somersaults we are forced to endure because of Trump supporters.

Once they’re gone, your whole life is laid out before you. Happiness and good fortune are finally within your grasp. You’ll see!

They hold you back!

I swear, you have no idea how much they hold you back.

Cut that anchor loose!

Hopefully this list will bring some clarity:

50 ways stupid Trump supporters are obnoxious and exhausting

2. To endure them, you have to endure constant lying.

3. They think the government is after our freedoms.

4. They want to give more money to government run police agencies that enforce the government’s ability to take our freedoms.

5. They want to cut disability checks.

6. Every single one of them cannot survive unless they get their disability checks.

7. They claim people collecting government disability checks “are scamming the government.”

8. The truth is, the only people scamming the government by unlawfully taking disability checks are ALL Trump supporters.

9. In every social media post they make, at minimum, five fraudulent statements.

48. They love their guns more than they love human beings.

49. They fail to use their turn signal at intersections.

50. They’re racists.

51. They loudly deny that they’re racists.

I could keep going, but why? Why let these worms live rent free in my mind any longer?

They offer nothing, they contribute nothing, they’re wrong about everything, they’re unfunny, they’re uniformed, they’re loud, and they’re discourteous.

They have bad fashion, bad hair, and they smell bad.

Don’t engage with them.

The second you sense any degree of Trump affiliation, block them.

Dump them.

Remove them.

Distance yourself from them.

They’re like anchors holding you back. You should be jumping and running and pirouetting in exhilarating splendor. You’re like Harrison Bergeron and Trump supporters are the chains (Trump supporters have no idea what that reference means).

The thing is, you’ve been CONDITIONED to tolerate them. It’s not considered polite to call out a liar to his face even when he’s lying!

Enough!

Call them out. It’s okay if they cry. Just get away from them. You don’t have to hear all their lies any more. You don’t have to listen to them. You don’t have to be influenced by them. You don’t have to endure them. You don’t have to look at them. You don’t have to hear about how much their children are failing at life. You don’t have to bail them out of their medical expenses. You don’t have to help them move. You don’t have to help them change a flat tire. You don’t have to help them with their math homework.

Everything wrong with their lives is something THEY chose not YOU! It’s not YOUR responsibility to help them ever… again…

Enough!

ENOUGH!

I give you permission to be free of them. Come to the better world where you don’t have to bite your tongue every day as you’re surrounded by a cloud of idiotic misconceptions you can disprove with a single Google search.

Don’t live like that any more. You don’t even have to say goodbye. Just leave.

Leave them to rot in their own juices. They’re just a skidmark on the pages of history. Throw that book away. Start new, this time with decent people. It’s so, so, worth it.
