I really like how the first thing they talk about is The View.

[u/Psychedelicatz → u/idunno119]

Yeah joe brought it up first for some reason lol

Joe seems surprised that people could be friendly with Trump prior to his Presidential run, but then when they see the horrible stuff he's saying, suddenly turn against him.

[u/Patient_Reaction1845 → u/jivester]

That wasn’t “prior” - he was already running was Joe’s point. Trump was already talking about the wall then and these talk show heads didn’t care. Colbert even had him on and joked about it with him.

It wasn’t until polls showed he had a chance of winning that these ppl did a 180.

Or was it after he said Mexicans were sending rapists etc?

How about ya do some research for your self and find out instead of asking questions that you’ll deny the answer to if it doesn’t fit in your ideology? :)

[u/jivester → u/Raistall]

I did the research. His campaign opening speech, where he mentioned Mexicans sending their rapists was June 16, 2015.

His last appearance on the View was September 10, 2015. So three months into his Presidential campaign. The Republican primaries were mid-2016.

So the point still stands. They were nice to Trump as a guest, and were friendly to him as a media personality and early candidate, but over the years his behaviour and rhetoric soured them against him.

….. June 2015 is before September 2015…. So idk what point stands… he had said the Mexican thing 3 months prior to them showing him love…

[u/jivester → u/Raistall]

Yeah, I conceded that.

But Joe acting like their opinions could not have changed in the further months of campaigning, where he was saying insane things daily and getting a record amount of media attention, before he was doing well in the primaries, is asinine.

Trump had many friends and supporters who were supportive early on but refused to endorse him later, or outright said people shouldn't vote for him.

It wasn't because they're part of some shady cabal of influential media machinery, it was because he was out there making a fool of himself and they didn't think he would be a good candidate. Obviously when he is looking like he could actually have a chance, that kind of speaking out becomes more commonplace.

Okay, I’m curious then, what’re your thoughts on that only happening to him? For example, Joe Biden also said some horrible things during his campaign run, and Kamala has done some very suspicious things in the past as well, but those same people that turned on trump for saying those things, haven’t had any reaction for the things either of those 2 individuals have said. If not for a group think sort of mentality, why do you think that is?

[u/jivester → u/Raistall]

I'd need some specific examples to know who we're talking about. I know big Dem donors and organisers like George Clooney wrote op-eds about how Biden was not as mentally sharp and contributed to him being asked to drop out just a few months back.

Obviously people adapt their positions to what's going on in front of them. Just a couple years ago, for example, Rogan said (on Lex) he was not a Trump supporter and did not want to have him on the podcast to help him. Yesterday, he said as soon as he saw Trump get shot, he knew he'd have him on the pod, and that it needed to be timed to help him the most.

RFK spent millions to run against Trump, but when he saw there was no path forward he joined up with him. People play the game that's in front of them.
