Huh. I've never thought that Trump DOESN'T have charisma....
Its absurd to say that Trump doesnt have charisma.

I mean, his whole schtick is name branding "Trump" on things based on his personal image. And then theres his reality show. Loads of his fans are attracted to him precisely because of this particular persona.

On the flip side, some people are repelled by this exact thing. But for a lot of people, Trump is highly charismatic.

Obama had charisma because of the way he spoke. I feel many follow Trump because he speaks the fears of the Right. I never liked listening to him because he loves tooting his own horn and he says stupid stuff. No, he is not going to be a dictator because the Left is also operating off their fears.

Trump tells supporters they won’t have to vote in the future: ‘It’ll be fixed!’

I tend to just understand what people mean directly by the words they choose making sure to consider tone and body language and stuff.

But it seems through Trumps first term, my ability to comprehend English words (coming from him) took a hit. From everyone else in my life and my students, other teachers, and all other english speakers, they said I was OK. But Trump supporters kept insisting I was not understanding the English that Trump was speaking.


But what is it Trump means when he says this? I need some Trump translators.
There are many Christians that do not vote at all ... his statement was addressing those folks.

I could see that. But he pretty clearly said that they would "have it fixed".....
Trump claimed with pride that because he is so popular, he could shoot someone in the open and not lose a vote. This speaks to what he thinks about the blindness of his supporters. Trump is all about salesmanship, embellishment, exaggeration, greed, and slander. He prides himself on the power of his silver tongue to manipulate weak minds. When Trump says it'll be fixed so good that you won't have to vote anymore, he's talking about HIS vision of what fixed looks like, and he's conveying to HIS Christians, "Trust in me".

Just like when he tried to "fix" an election that wasn't even broken, by cheating. There too he counted on slander to deceive people into believing that whatever he says is true regardless of all the evidence to the contrary. When Trump says, "My beautiful Christians", he is implying ownership of gullible stooges. When he says vote this one last time, he means he won't need them anymore after this time.

All I'm asking is for a translation of what he said.

Not a feasibility or likelihood.


Personally I. Just chalking this one up as another lie; a lie that some people want to hear
The question would be why would any Amercian want to hear there right to vote will be removed?

It's a good question. I know I'd want to know if that was the intent of a candidate, but why would they use words that imply it without outright saying it? Maybe they could then claim we were told after the fact, and that we voted for it. And if the candidate is called out, then they can claim they never meant that. It's hard to nail down the forked tongue. The forked tongue can be claiming they're talking about cleaning up the fraud when it's unproven that there is fraud to begin with.

It's interesting how some folks end up following charismatic leaders.

I would argue Obama is a very charismatic person. I suppose he was only actually charismatic to the left in the end....

100% Obama had charisma.

People dont want to admit Trump does tho because then he'd be a candidate for......... the antichrist!

Trump Explains Why He Told Crowd They Won’t Have To Vote


“That statement is very simple,” he added. “I said, vote for me; you’re not going to have to do it ever again. It’s true.”

“This time vote, I’ll straighten out the country, you won’t have to vote anymore, I won’t need your vote.”

“You meant you won’t have to vote for you because you’ll have four years in office,” Ingraham pressed.

[A simple 'yes' would be appropriate here.]

“I’m saying go out, you must vote,” Trump replied. “I said to the Christians in the room … you have to vote on Nov. 5. After that, you don’t have to worry about voting anymore — I don’t care — because we’re going to fix up, the country will be fixed and we won’t even need your vote anymore because frankly we will have such love.”

This is classic Donald. He said the country will be fixed so we won't need your vote anymore because we will have such love. Who else talks like that?

It's quite simple. If Trump wins, he will "fix" everything wrong in the country in perpetuity. :rolleyes:

What I think he means is that you just need to vote for him this time so he can win this election. Then he'll have served two terms and will no longer be eligible to run again, hence he won't need your vote any more.
