  1. OMG, there is no better summary of your understanding of issues than citing a listicle. Chef's kiss!
  2. Remarkably, she didn't declare herself the winner. No coup attempt? So old fashioned.
  3. Damn right it is. This idea that there would be peace if only Ukraine lacked the means to defend itself is nonsense and pure Russian propaganda.
  4. Absolutely a cult of personality fueled exclusively by the politcs of spite. The campaign platform and rhetoric is incoherent and schizophrenic. His voters have no idea how his promises connect to their actual problems, and they don't seem to care? Anti-inflation pro-tariff? Sure! Why not?!?
  5. As a person with no integrity, no moral compass and no sense of ethics, this probably probably sound strange to you, but if a hostile nation's intelligence services contact one's presidential campaign offering "dirt" on an opponent, one should contact the authorities, not set up a meeting. In America, we expect our leaders to contend with hostile nations, not get into bed with them. Not to meet with them. Not to coordinate around illegal hack leaks. And damn sure not to feed them polling and strategy so that they can more effectively target Americans. You see, they are enemies of America, targeting Americans. Even if your political opponent is a sleazy scumbag like Trump, he's an American. Americans protect Americans, not hostile foreign interests. That's America first.
  6. That attempt at collusion certainly illustrates intent on the part of the campaign, but I was referring specifically to the documented meetings and exchanges between Manafort and Kilimnik. With elaborate contrivances to hide their exchanges, Manafort delivered sensitive Intel to known Russian intelligence agent Kilimnik, who in turn delivered it to Russian intelligence--while Russian intelligence was actively targeting Americans with election interference activities.
  7. No, you are just a farking liar. You claimed that most liberals believe the Holocaust is a myth. And the evidence YOU posted confirms that you're a liar.
  8. You're like an AI minus the "intelligence" and programmed for hallucination. Not only was the investigation well founded (even the Durham investigation acknowledged that an investigation was warranted) it clearly established collusion, which is now documented as a matter of public record. Anyone in the world can read the reports and see that the Trump campaign did, in fact, clandestinely meet with and deliver sensitive campaign strategy and polling information to Russian intelligence while same Russian intelligence agency was actively targeting Americans with election interference. None of that is debatable. Your lies won't change that.
  9. Nationalist wears Velcro shoes and you're a raving loon so disconnected from reality that it sounds like you're posting from another planet. You two make a cute couple that way.
  10. You are a shameless liar. Trump absolutely tried to condition already appropriated Ukraine aid on election help from Zelensky. Nothing was based on a "misquote." Trump was abundantly clear in his criminal request. That's why Vindman reported the violation. And that's why Sondland testified that they were explicitly trying to arrange a quid pro quo at Trump's direction. You can try this abaurd gaslighting all you want, but you can't rewrite history. No one believes your lies.
  11. I know the world is baffling and mysterious to someone who doesn't know anything about anything. Everything must be a secret plot instead of BAY.
  12. Sure, if "cover up" refers to things done with full visibility in plain sight.
  13. The plea deal was not offered by Biden or by a Biden cabinet member, or by a Biden appointee. It was offered by someone to whom the authority had been delegated. Austin tried to take back the plea offer once he became aware that it had been made. And if you really care, this plea has been in the works since the Trump admin. "Mr. Wood, a colonel in the Arkansas National Guard, was appointed to the job during the Trump administration, in April 2020. In March 2022, he empowered prosecutors to negotiate a plea agreement in the Sept. 11 case. Under the proposal, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the accused mastermind of the attacks, and four other men would serve life in prison rather than risk the possibility of a death sentence at a trial, in exchange for admitting to conspiring in the hijacking attacks that killed 2,976 people. The talks have been stalemated, awaiting a response from the Biden administration." Does this mean your misplaced outrage will shift to Trump? Or will it suddenly fizzle out, mysteriously vanishing as quickly as it appeared? Sorry to spoil your finger-pointing fun. But on the upside, you'll have time to ponder the actual substantive questions.
  14. Not sure you know what "witch hunt" means. They call it that because witches (of the magic variety) are fictional, so it refers to a hunt for things that aren't real. The FBI, on the other hand, investigates things that may or may not turn out (upon investigation) to be factual. However in this case the suspicions were validated through investigation and demonstrably factual. You could just refer to the investigations as inconvenient.
  15. OMG, that's the quality of the NY Post Editorial Board? -- Sounds like the unhinged ranting on this forum. None of this has particularly anything to do with the POTUS. Nor do I expect this to be the end of the matter. BUT, have you paused for even half a second to consider why someone like Escallier would offer the deal? What are the consequences of taking this thing to trial--let alone the remote possibility of an acquittal? Are those costs and potential risks worth paying in exchange to satisfy some emotional yearning for a form of retributive justice? Is that a good deal?
  16. You poke fun at a teenage girl because you can't argue against the overwhelming scientific consensus. Which is fine. Nobody needs YOU to understand climate science. That's why we have experts. But it would be nice if you STFU and let the experts shape policy. You're like the patient that goes to 10 cardiologists and all 10 tell you that your cholesterol is dangerously high. You know they're smarter than you. You know they're vastly more educated and expert than you. But you really farking love bacon, so you wave your hands and pretend that you're more qualified to assess the risk and damage.
  17. Mike Judge is very smart and an incisive observer of humanity and society. The funny/not funny thing about a world of Idiocracy is that even in an excellent and prescient piece of satire, the smart creator just can't understand dumb people. Even in this fantasy we imagine that dumb people will recognize that they are not equipped to do certain things and will look to someone smart for help, to solve problems. Because that's the logical thing to do: get help from experts. But people like @Nationalist prove every day that it simply isn't the case. In reality, they will pretend that the problems don't exist and will ignore and dismiss the brilliant and learned people offering solutions. Because "Rah! Rah! Rah!"
  18. 🤷‍♂️ Trump has a 3 point plan, and Elon Musk is Trump's Joe Bowers?
  19. Perhaps it was a cry for help, trying to draw Trump's attention to a pressing problem: the monstrosity that is the Cybertruck.
  20. False. The media is never twisting his endless stream of ill-considered asinine bullshit to sound smart or reasonable.
  21. Trump and his army of scientifically illiterate halfwits may temporarily sabotage America's response to the climate crisis, but they can no sooner "end" the fact of climate change than they can flatten the Earth. Meanwhile, you are entirely irrelevant to US politics. Just sit there and drink your pureed veggies while you misspell "loser" a few more times, loser.
