  1. Let’s say that you and I are both employers. An employee wants a net salary of $250,000. I pay him legally, which means I pay around $340,000 to $370,000 a year. You pay him illegally — $250,000, which you don’t report to the IRS. Now multiply that by ten employees over ten years. Now, Trump’s lawyers are arguing, “Hey, they company did nothing wrong; this was the employees who failed to pay their taxes. WRONG, and they darn well know it. As an employer, you are obligated to report compensation to the IRS and the state, and you are obligated to withhold the taxes. Trump Corp did neither, so that’s illegal and it’s conspiracy to defraud.
  2. Look, it’s a fact that Russian police violently stopped gay pride rally’s, and now he’s instituting even more crackdowns. Is a gay pride rally a place where minors can see homosexuality? Yes. Are they protecting anybody from anything? No. I think we agree here and there’s really no argument. Vladimir Putin is anti-American and repulsive. He’s dropping bombs on Ukrainian children while pretending to “protect” Russian children from homosexuality. Who is he fooling? Not you, I’m sure.
  3. Donald Trump once tweeted: ”The only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.” Another time, he asked: “Are you an American or a Democrat?” So… the thought of Trump in prison makes me jump for joy. He’s obviously a criminal and that’s where he belongs.
  4. Can you truly say with a straight face that Trump is not a divisive individual?
  5. All true, but do you really think these knuckle draggers care about facts? But your post is excellent. What’s unfortunate is that we can never have any substantive discussions with these boneheads, because they’re simply brainwashed and facts are irrelevant to them.
  6. You’re “not sure” because you can’t read a simple graph: https://nida.nih.gov/research-topics/trends-statistics/overdose-death-rates
  7. So tell us… Did the Holocaust happen? Did Hitler murder over six million Jews?
  8. The 14th Amendment of the US Constitution is not an option for our lawmakers to consider. No, the 14th is part of the supreme body of law which every lawmaker is bound by oath to uphold. Lawmakers of both parties MUST prohibit Donald Trump from holding any public office. It is not an option. It is a requirement. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

  9. I just quoted the headline and first few sentences of The NY Times article, but I fail to understand your point. Are you saying, “Gee, it’s perfectly fine, since they’re only banning homosexuality from media, and not from public?” I don’t know if it’s the translation. I don’t know if they meant “banned from public airwaves” and it’s ok for people to make pro-gay statements, as long as it isn’t on radio, TV or the internet?
  10. Hey Trump-loving “Christians”! Here’s your chance to move to Russia and enjoy a gay-free life! Of course, it’s a freedom-free life, but you can’t have everything! “ President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia intensified his crackdown on L.G.B.T.Q. people on Monday, when he signed new legislation that widely bans public expression of their identity in the country. The new law makes it illegal to spread “propaganda” about “nontraditional sexual relations” in the media, advertising, movies or on social media. It had passed the Duma, Russia’s Parliament, by a vote of 397 to 0 on Nov. 24. Demonstrations of “nontraditional relationships or preferences” will also be completely barred from advertising, and from any outlet visible to minors.” - NY Times Putin is such a good Christian, isn’t he? Besides never going to church and putting religious leaders in prison and stuff, he’s made Russia a very Christian place. Sorta.
  11. That’s your opinion because you are a Florida third grader.
  12. The Speaker of the House is not the commander of the DC National Guard, the President is.
  13. “Termination of the Constitution” means… Termination of the Constitution. Which is what Orangeman said.
  14. It’s what he said, not who said it. Politicians of any stripe who are not speaking out against this vile fascist statement of Trump’s are co-conspirators. Period.
  15. “There's no age where your level of repugnance is forgivable.”
  16. But the fentanyl epidemic did start under Trump, didn’t it? That’s what the federal government reports: https://nida.nih.gov/research-topics/trends-statistics/overdose-death-rates
  17. “Silence is complicity” Joe Biden
  18. Incorrect. Social Security is 19% of total Federal spending Medicare is 12% of total Federal spending That’s 31%, not 75%. Both of those programs are funded by separate payroll taxes, and neither run a deficit. So they aren’t the cause of deficit spending. Oh; and unlike your BS, I have a source: The Federal Government Treasury Department. https://fiscaldata.treasury.gov/americas-finance-guide/federal-spending/ See how easy it was to show how much of a liar you are? I just found simple, basic facts. Instead of listening to propaganda from Fox News or whatever, I went to the source and got the primary data for myself. So go throw a hissy fit and and call me a communist and all stupid nonsense. You’ve again been shown to be a bald faced liar by simple facts.
  19. As you surmised, he (or they) is a troll. Does he (or they) really care about the fentanyl epidemic? Of course not. I mean, their “solution” proposed to California’s problem is: 1) For New York to have a commission to study the problem; 2) To deny that Florida has a bigger opioid problem than California; 3) To call people Nazis You're obviously arguing with an eight year-old.
  20. In the aftermath of Trump meeting with a neo-Nazi and Kanye, and subsequent pro-Hitler statements by Kanye, President Biden Tweeted this: "I just want to make a few things clear: The Holocaust happened. Hitler was a demonic figure. And instead of giving it a platform, our political leaders should be calling out and rejecting antisemitism wherever it hides. Silence is complicity." Absolutely, positively right. There is zero place in our society for Nazism in any form. It’s not Democrat, it’s not Republican. Nazism and Nazis have no place in America or anywhere else on the planet.

  21. If the deficit is so extremely bad, STOP VOTING FOR THE REPUBLICANS WHO ARE THE ONES WHO INCREASE THE DEBT THE MOST Source: www.treasury.gov
  22. Republicans: Communism is the greatest threat to America! Only Nixon can talk to Mao! The deficit is the greatest threat to America! Iran is the biggest threat to America! Libya is the biggest threat to America! Terrorism is the biggest threat to America! Critical Race Theory is the biggest threat to America! China is the biggest threat to America! Windmills cause cancer!
