Middle of the road conservative. leaning independent. Truth seeker. Trump voter—but NEVER Trumper after treason. Go Cowboys!

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

I did not see anywhere @Matthewtravis08 saying he would “stop loving” anyone. Not going to put words in his mouth, but washing your hands of someone and “no longer loving them” are two completely different things. In fact love for our family/friends etc, is the main reason we can hold so much disappointment. If you didn’t care…you wouldn’t care.

There is a difference between washing your hands of someone because they happen to hold more liberal/conservative values than you….and washing your hands of someone because they have made the choice to join and support someone who isn’t simply antithetical to what this country, our constitution and democracy are about…a LITERAL cult which is more closely aligned with the ideologies of Nazi Germany and Hitler, Russia and Putin, and even Radical Islam ISIS .
That is not fear mongering and being an alarmist, but simply where this is at today,
MAGA is a cult . Period. Not talking conservatism, which hell I have long considered myself a middle of the road conservative on most issues….but Donald Trump…he is not a conservative, he is an authoritarian tyrant and literally EVERYTHING he embodies and is promoting is CLASSIC Hitler nazi fascism.

The reality now is….Family or not, if you today can stand by and support Donald Trump and his desire to DESTROY the very fabric of what makes this country what it’s been for 250 years….YOU are the one who has chosen the Anti American way of life. Not me. You have chosen fascism, greed, immorality. You have chosen to hate law enforcement, law and order, compassion, and truth.
In 2016, even 2020 you could still claim naivety or ignorance….Hell , I voted for the man in 2016 . Now, there is no more “Oh I don’t like his behavior but I support his policies”. No. Policy has not one fucking thing to do w it.
Anyone who continues to support Donald Trump today, supports fascist authoritarians and dictatorial rule. Anyone who supports Trump today, supports women and minorities being 0.5 or less than a man. Anyone who supports Trump today supports tyranny and lawlessness , and allegiance to ONE PERSON rather than ONE COUNTRY.
Anyone with a clue, not brain washed by his phony gestures and empty words to a camera , has long known Donald Trump loathes military service and service members. His disgust and distain and flat out inability to even to begin to comprehend was true love and loyalty to country is about, has been CRYSTAL clear….but after what he did by pardoning RUTHLESS, VIOLENT, DANGEROUS criminals, who brutally beat law enforcement officers, some within inches of their lives and others who eventually died or took their own, due to the trauma experienced…..and then TODAY had the mother fucking audacity to direct DOJ officials to CALL THOSE OFFICERS and tell them “As of today, you are officially no longer a victim”…..THAT , THAT , was defining measure of what this man is.
A weak, pathetic, spineless, amoral, Anti Democratic, Anti Law and order, anti justice, anti AMERICAN , PIECE OF DOG SHIT, who if there was EVER truly justice and accountability in this country again, should be hung. Period.
Yes, if you support that man, a man of such ineptitude and cowardliness, who could not give one fuck about this country, much less you or any other individual and who is seeking to drive our democracy and nation off a cliff…..nah. Fuck you and every other America hating MAGAT .

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@atensnut LMAO scared of what…exactly? Fucking idiots

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

You repost this…yet two nights ago, and possibly last night(didnt catch the show unfortunately) you emphatically, doubled down on the narrative—-categorically false narrative, that the violence being fomented and perpetrated , is really only a flaw and factor stemming from the left. THAT is PRECISELY the kind of willful ignorance and/or denial , which prevents a path forward.
Its simply false.
You proceeded to list off incidents, conveniently leaving out the Minnesota killings—-perpetrated by a deranged and demented individual who was staunch conservative/Republican and strong supporter of POTUS.
You conveniently left out the individual (Republican/conservative) who fired off over 200 rounds into the CDC.
You conveniently left out the deranged individual(again Republican/Conservative) who attempted to kill Gov Josh Shapiro and his family by torching his home while his family slept inside.
You attempted to portray the “left” as the side constantly speaking in inflammatory terms and using hateful language regarding Republicans, while leaving out the facts that POTUS and the VP are two of the most frequent persons to engage in such rhetoric and villainizing of the “other side”.

July 3rd—While speaking to reporters and on live television proceeded to refer to “Democrats” as “evil” and proceeded to say quote “I hate them”.
July 5th—-JD Vance proceeded to look into the camera and say “They simply hate you and they hate this country” in reference to Democrats.

Idiots , 6’7 300 lb social media “bad asses” , are going to say absurd , idiotic things. It does not make it ok, it doesn’t help, but the FACTS are, the POTUS and VP…their words carry exponentially more weight than others. Their words, DIRECTLY influence and spurn ACTIONS and to an extent NO ONE else on social media or within politics are able to.

THAT is where it starts—the TIP TOP and THAT is what emboldens others to an extent no other voices really have the ability to do.

Acting as if Donald Trump and the right is any less guilty of spewing hateful, violence inspiring rhetoric compared to the left….again, its willful ignorance because you know better.

As long as you have POTUS regularly referring to DEMOCRATS as the problem and issuing such words as he regularly does and NO ONE on that side calling it for what it is, you will have horrific things like we saw this week.

This is not “really only one side” as you implied. Thats just categorically false.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

No one called Republicans in general “Hitler”. Repost the quotes then??
In fact , its the exact opposite. Referring to Trump and his admins behavior , language etc as being “Nazi” like, comparing their actions and words, is not calling REPUBLICANS hitler.

Nor is ANYTHING that Democrats have said in their deep concerns regarding Trump, anywhere remotely the same as the SITTING POTUS using the language Trump does.

Its just absolutely pathetic listening to the excuses and willful ignorance by the far MAGA right. The accusations claiming that dangerous actions and language, inflammatory language, HATE speech, is coming from the left…when DONALD TRUMP the SITTING POTUS is arguably the #1 offender when it comes to such language and the reality is, its COMPLETELY DIFFERENT when the POTUS and/or VP is using language calling for violence/death, or categorizing an entire half of the country as evil etc.
July 3rd 2025–Donald Trump on live television “I HATE THEM” referencing Democrats.
July 5th 2025 JD Vance—“Dems HATE YOU” when speaking to crowd of conservatives.

The hypocrisy is simply astounding.

The left—people like Van Jones for example, absolutely they hold fault in such things as well , along with others, but again….NOTHING compares to POTUS routinely vilifying and referring to half the country as “Evil” “hate your country”, “They hate God” ,etc.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@tomstern2 @JoJoFromJerz Does not explain why he was portraying tell tale signs of a stroke

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@Oldcrow07 @leonardaisfunny This is ignorance, plain and simple.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

And statements like this, from both side of the political spectrum, are PRECISELY what lead to decent human beings —whether you agree with them or not on any and all, being killed. The “Democratic party “ is no more guilty of treason than the Republican party is due to the plethora of crimes committed by fucked up , deranged individuals who simply happen to be part of that party. 99%+ of this country, both political parties , unequivocally reject and condemn acts like this.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@BehindTheWallvm Help me understand what exactly was said…..?

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

I’m going to stand down following this final reply, simply out of respect for the situation.
I feel like you are suggesting, promoting, the possibility of this murderer, actually being a conservative or even MAGA, who because of some single issue or possibly stance by Kirk on any number of recent topics…..spent hours, if not days, planning and staging his crime and escape…

That is just really, really far out there.
Impossible?? Nothing is impossible and no, I do not know the persons motive, but I choose to follow both common sense and precedence when projecting or forming a belief in anything. Both common sense and precedence, point to this all but certain to be a deranged individual , who decided to murder someone under the belief that doing so could prevent them/others from continuing to speak and promote that which they ascribe to and believe in. Not someone cut from the same cloth when it comes to politics and personal/religious beliefs .

There are plenty of persons on my side of the political spectrum who harbor that level of distain and hatred for the prominent voices in the Conservative movement.

“Politics” and those differences though, did not lead to this. Being mentally ill and /or a person who believes they are morally and entirely superior , more worthy of life and living than someone else….BECAUSE that other person who they kill, happens to believe what they do.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@theopposum1234 @LauraLoomer @charliekirk11 That is literally the definition. Assassination and political assassination aren’t one in the same.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@theopposum1234 @LauraLoomer @charliekirk11 Umm thats exactly what a political assassination means . Being targeted /killed primarily because of their political role, beliefs, or actions.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@Shaneo8906Shane @kenklippenstein It’s just absurd that anyone is actually entertaining such ideas/conspiracies.
Absolutely nothing that even remotely suggests such a thing.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

It is a fact that everything we know regarding instances of violence like this, point to this being a political assassination.
The overwhelming majority of murder convictions are handed down based purely on the facts surrounding it-aka circumstantial evidence, not a video or irrefutable evidence/admission etc.
We dont have to have a suspect captured and an admission from them of such, to know this was politically motivated.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

Facts: There is not a shooter in custody, whom has been questioned and given any indication to a motive.

Facts: It does not take a rocket scientist to know that in absolutely all likelihood this individual was someone who disagreed with Charlie Kirk politically.

No, I do not share the same beliefs and opinions that Charlie had. I did not agree with him hardly anything.
Reality is a lot of people did and do.
A lot of people are hurting, angry, pissed off and they have every right to be and I have no right to tell them that their anger, sadness, etc. is wrong.
The man did not deserve this. Period.
His family did not deserve this. Period
Us as a people, both sides, myself included(certainly myself) have to be better. Period.
This whole labeling of an entire side this or that, rather than the sick persons who do this type of thing, being sick persons who perpetrate(d) a horrible act….has to stop.
Both sides have fault in the temperature we are at and we see it back at work today ….not even 24 hours after a 31 year old father, husband and son lost their life , not because they were out harming others….but because they actually made the effort to engage those who DID NOT AGREE WITH THEM, in substantive , civil and open debate.
Not playing God and believing you have any right to pass ultimate judgement and take another’s life.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@waitbutwhy Lies do not solve problems they simply contribute to them.
99%+ of this country, 99%+ of X or Bluesky , is APPALLED at what took place today.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

Comparing Charlie Kirk, or ANYONE to Jesus…using Jesus as a comparison to ANYONE…its just blasphemy.
Charlie Kirk is not Jesus, was not comparable to Jesus. Charlie Kirk did not deserve nor does ANYONE deserve this, but stop with the comparisons to Christ—whether Kirk, Trump etc.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@nicksortor No. THIS kinda of rhetoric, PRECISELY what you just posted, is what has fueled incidents like this. Your lies and hatefulness are blinding. The individual who did this does not represent any “side”. They are deranged and unfortunately you are brainwashed

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@Jay66935659 @acvk78 @Strandjunker LMAO….for fucks sake you people are absolutely brainwashed….

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

To be 100% fair, that is certainly a valid argument or statement on its face.
However, it’s not all that relevant .

The overwhelming majority of murder convictions are rendered via circumstantial evidence and that is because it usually includes lies, deceit , etc.
As of now there is not a video or picture of Donald Trump participating in any illegal acts . There is a monumental pile of deceit, lies, attempts to mislead and a shitload of circumstantial evidence —mounting by the day almost, that Donald Trump at VERY least, knew about Epsteins lifestyle and behavior . Thats at The VERY least….and the excuses that continue to flow for him are simply absurd.

Trump has routinely attempted to claim that he hardly knew Epstein—which Trump habitually does when he feels threatened by his past relationship w anyone.
We know for 100% absolute fact that is false..a lie. We know Trump was arguably Epsteins best friend for over a decade. That they routinely hung out, both in public and private and traveled together numerous occasions—including Trump and his family.

We know Trump has been accused of sexual transgressions ,including sexual assault , dozens of times. He has been convicted of such.
We know Trump has a predatory mindset and complete lack of respect for women —via literally his own admissions and statements , both bragging about and condoning sexual assault.
We know Trump(again via his own words) has made comments about and directly to very young women—children/minors , including comments made about his own infant daughters breasts/chest and his public questioning of a 12 /13 year old girl “How old are you” and after being given the reply of their age, “Just wait, you will be dating me in a couple of years.”
We know that the mans moral compass….is …questionable if not completely void, that he has cheated on every women he has been with and married, including with the women he would then marry after divorce.
We know that while he can deny all he wants, the facts and reality is he DID write this note/letter and that IS his name/signature , already confirmed by multiple forensic and handwriting experts .

We know that those with nothing to hide, hide nothing. No one would have condemned or blamed Trump for having a relationship and dear friendship with Epstein. Hundreds , maybe thousands of friends and acquaintances of Epstein were duped or fooled and no clue of his disgusting lifestyle. He was a wealthy, popular man living in NY and everyone knows how that goes. They all know or know of each other and does not mean you were involved in that behavior…..but why lie? You would only do so typically if trying to obscure something or distance yourself because once the digging starts, someone is going to continue it.

Go swap Trump with Obama or Biden. You would have EVERY SINGLE MEMBER of Trumps admin , in front /on every radio and TV outlet in this country…not to mention Congressional Republicans, calling for his HEAD. You would have James Comer saying “That just doesnt pass the smell test” or the “plane face test” if Bidens or Obamas White House had tried to deny either of their signature on such a letter, despite numerous of objective, independent , professionals —not to mention hundreds of millions who know Trumps writing and how to view side by side comps, knowing damn well thats their signature.

There is no argument which acknowledges the facts, to be had that there isnt ANYTHING suggesting there is much more to this and that at VERY LEAST Trump knew far more into Epsteins lifestyle. Its idiocy to argue that at this point.

Not to mention the FACTs that the man “died” under Trumps watch despite both professionals and friends/family have emphatically refuted the notion that he took his own life.
Not to mention that Donald Trump signed off on giving unprecedented preferential treatment to a CONVICTED SEX TRAFFICKER and convicted sexual predator after his DOJ(who also happen to be close friends w Maxwells lawyer) met.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

LMAO The fact that Donald f’n Trump is lying…I mean the man lies any and every time he responds to or stands in front of a mic, isnt surprising. Its the norm.
The part that blows ones mind—although also fairly typical, is the brainwashed /braindead IDIOTS who hear the lie “Not my signature” and thats that, its settled. Trump says its not true, its not true.
Never before has there been a fan base so void of common sense , reality and entirely willfully ignorant.
It is THE EPITOME of a cult. Ignore what is in front of you and that which you see with your own eyes and accept anything told to you, if told to you by the leader.

If it wasn’t just so absolutely horrifying , it truly would be epic comedy.

You have had now half a dozen handwriting and forensic specialists saying with 100% certainty that this is Trumps document and writing .
This is not even a “government” investigative document or some report compiled by the Govt, this is a PERSONNEL AFFECT , property of a personal estate, turned over via subpoena .
This is not part of a file that has been changing hands for decades via new admins or those covering/investigating, but a PERSONAL AFFECT —no different than a painting, heirloom etc.passed down within a family , which was turned over .

It is as authentic, objective and damning a piece of evidence you could obtain. Nearly the equivalent of finding a pair of bloody gloves in a previously unknown abandoned cabin, belonging to one suspected of murder two decades ago—which contain both the victim and previous suspects DNA. Handwriting forensics and analysis has a 97% accuracy —not to mention when multiple professionals are a concurring in the same analysis …its more or less the same as police showing a suspect a video tape of them at the scene of a crime, and attempting to still say “Thats not me”.

Bottom line —Trump is fucking fucked…but any objective person already knew that.
The man and same crowd which sat for years and years screaming , accusing Democrats and the left of things such as cabals, drinking the blood of children, pizza gate…..now is faced with the reality of having to admit how ABSOLUTELY DUPED they were and that their “king” is in all likelihood a part of the very acts they have accused everyone else of, OR continue to deny , excuse etc.because admitting such is the equivalent of a man or woman raised within a cult for 25 years of their life, admitting everything which had been impressed and engrained in their mind….was all a lie.

[Matt McLeod @GatesAxton]

@megynkelly “Lies” about racist policing?? You cannot be that abhorrently stupid…straight up dumb. Refuse to believe it.
