  1. I see that you’re completely ignoring the fact that the Republican gubernatorial candidate in North Carolina is stark-raving mad: He has called for killing his political opponents, he’s called himself a black Nazi, and he thinks that desecration stole freedoms from black people. He’s out off his mind. I’m a strong Democrat, but I have no trouble denouncing Ilhan and Rashida. I gave money to their opponents. I had no problem with Menendez being prosecuted. So why is it so difficult to agree that somebody who calls himself a R is a lunatic?
  2. Here is one reason: The terrorists are 100% civilians. Assuming you were in the Army, then you know all about the uniform. It’s a violation of the Geneva Convention for a combatant to identify or dress as a civilian. Second is they ordered 1,000 pagers and one of the terrorists steals a few or they have some extras and give them or sell them.
  3. What are you talking about? WW I started in Sarajevo, which is in Bosnia. There are several countries in-between Bosnia and Ukraine.
  4. So it’s convenient to call them Communist when it helps the argument, but not when it loses the argument.
  5. Wow, somebody made a meme! That’s gonna change the election for sure! Except…
  6. Terrorists do not follow the rules of war, period. The Geneva Convention says they combatants must wear uniforms. They must not use civilian or medical facilities as military bases. They must not target civilians. Terrorists deliberately violate all of these rules.
  7. But China and Vietnam are communist to this day.
  8. Now Trump stock has plummeted to $13.55.
  9. No it is not. There are many surveys which capture years of education along with party choice and candidate choice: ”White non-college voters. White voters without a college degree were critical to Trump’s victory in 2016, when he won the group by 64% to 28%. In 2018, Democrats were able to gain some ground with these voters, earning 36% of the White, non-college vote to Republicans’ 61%. In 2020, Biden roughly maintained Democrats’ 2018 share among the group, improving upon Clinton’s 2016 performance by receiving the votes of 33%. But Trump’s share of the vote among this group – who represented 42% of the total electorate this year – was nearly identical to his vote share in 2016 (65%).“ https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/06/30/behind-bidens-2020-victory/
  10. TBH, Democrats were fools for not eliminating the filibuster 100% when they had the chance. It’s not Constitutional and it makes no sense except to empower minority Senators and spend more pork dollars.
  11. The current tariffs aren’t 60%, which is what Trump says he will do. Biden, OTOH, imposed 100% tariffs on Chinese electric cars, to keep them out of our country entirely.
  12. Wait a minute… You called a black person a “monkey,” and when somebody calls you out on it, you deflect by calling them racist? WTF is wrong with you?
  13. Clearly, Trump knows Sean Combes. And they were friends. But I’m not an ldiot, like the Republicans are, and I think it’s safe to say that it’s very unlikely that Trump knew anything of Combes’ criminal activities, just as Kamala Harris did not know. So this sort of “guilt by association” reasoning which launched this thread is ridiculous. Epstein is another story: Trump’s on record saying he knew that Epstein liked very young girls, yet he continued to socialize with him. Not good
  14. So they should pass a law to deport people who are suspected of committing rape in the future?
  15. No, I’m telling you that in 2017, it was the Republicans who ended the filibuster, and blaming the other party for their actions is nonsense.
  16. Really? So when Trump institutes 60% tariff on Chinese imports, how is that not INCREASING tax on all Americans? If we all stop buying Chinese-made stuff off of Amazon and at Target/Wal-Mart, then we just buy more expensive stuff made elsewhere… and if it’s made overseas, it’s still going to face a 10 to 20% tax increase. You’re just lying about this fundamental fact. You cannot increase the cost of something by 60% and then pretend it won’t cost the end customer more. Why are you so allergic to telling the truth? The truth is the truth. Tariffs increase the cost of consumer and industrial goods. End of story. US Imports from China are over half a trillion dollars. Tax that 60% and it’s $300 billion.
  17. Maybe you should be paying attention to more important things, like the North Carolina GOP candidate for governor who calls himself a Black Nazi, and has called for killing Democrats. Maybe you guys need another candidate.
  18. Please tell us how many dollars this man raised for Kamala Harris, or admit that you just made up yet another lie.
  19. Mark Robinson has called for re-instating slavery, and has described the Civil Rights Movement, which ended segregation in schools, restaurants, buses, bathrooms, etc., as “the greatest loss of freedom in history.” And Donald Trump describes this pro-slavery, admitted Nazi as, “Martin Luther King Times Two”. The Republican Party is just completely f-cked up.
  20. That is just BULLSHlT. The fillibuster exists for a reason. So you’re saying it’s the Democrats fault for using it, even though Republicans used it over and over and over? Do you really believe your own lies?
  21. Well… they did. I mean… your argument is that “the Democrats made them do it!” But Republicans filibustered Democrat judges for years, and when the Dems threatened to block Gorsuch, as was their right, the GOP ended the filibuster.
