  1. ‘Enough to make Reagan ill': Trump’s NATO remarks under fire clearly... this conversation that Trump says he had with a leader of some NATO country... didn't happen. because he's the only leader to talks like that. can you imagine an other presidential candidate in the US ever making up stories like this? no. he's special alright.
  2. you know, when well known hard left socialist skiffs call the socialists you cite "a 'Trotskyist' cult"... then you know you're scraping the bottom of the barrel for credible evidence. World Socialist Web Site "socialist magazine New Politics, the Lebanese Trotskyist academic Gilbert Achcar described the WSWS as "pro-Putin, pro-Assad and 'left-wing' propaganda" combined with "gutter journalism ... run by a 'Trotskyist' cult ... which perpetuates a long worn-out tradition of inter-Trotskyist sectarian quarrels in fulfilling its role as apologist for Putin, Assad, and their friends.""
  3. oh, and give the richest 1% even more money while plunging the country even further into debt! Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and then just make up a bunch of new "social conservative" talking points... like when "segregation" was swapped out for "abortion"! The Religious Right and the Abortion Myth (don't worry i didn't put i all here but since you won't read it) "Two successive editors of Christianity Today took equivocal stands on abortion. Carl F. H. Henry, the magazine’s founder, affirmed that “a woman’s body is not the domain and property of others,” and his successor, Harold Lindsell, allowed that, “if there are compelling psychiatric reasons from a Christian point of view, mercy and prudence may favor a therapeutic abortion”... "1980...Reagan said nothing whatsoever about abortion."... "Opposition to abortion, therefore, was a godsend for leaders of the Religious Right because it allowed them to distract attention from the real genesis of their movement: defense of racial segregation in evangelical institutions."
  4. hilarious! thanks @Deluge as i almost missed the "new excuses" from Johnson. so first Johnson says "no way we're allowing 5k before the president can close the border"... then after realizing that only the sucker base can be convinced of the hypocrisy "the president can shut down the border anytime he wants"! Can Biden ‘shut down’ the border right now? is there no end to this insanity! its hilarious. the poor MAGA base... the earth is flat! the earth is round! no its a cube!
  5. still unable to address any points i make? you're the one who doesn't give a sh!t about children being turned into hamburger meat. i was just pointing out that i don't really believe you. that you aren't inhuman. that its just too easy to be that way from a keyboard in a cozy home somewhere watching Fox news all day. all you have to do is say it on this board. that you are concerned about innocent people getting killed in war. is that so hard? if you can't then no one has called you a name or judged you. if you feel angry its because you've judged yourself.
  6. Biden said he would shut the border if given the legal authority. the senate Dems did not give the GOP everything they wanted because a large percentage of Americans obviously are not too worried about it and communicate as such through the organizations that support immigrants etc. you can hope to hell that these people shut up which is not going to happen or you can negotiate the best deal that you can get. or you get nothing. Trump trashed the deal. and he'll get nothing in November if he becomes president. looks like the US will be turning more and more brown. i'll have to get ready to speak spanish when i go.
  7. only the Trump Organization has been convicted to date. with Trump supporters that doesn't percolate up even if he was the CEO of the organization. as some of his supporters suspect... he will have been sent by god if he squeeks through the indictments he has. i mean the hush money case in March, really fail to see how he isn't convicted in that one alone. but his supporters don't care. he's said he could shoot someone and not lose a supporter. so what does this say about the his supporters?
  8. yeah, but did Biden's policies drive more people from where to live in the south the the US border? i'm willing to listen if you're able to dig up real studies that identify immigration being stifled by border barriers. are there any? its already been outlined that if Biden wanted to keep fighting in court against immigration proponents to keep people in Mexico that he was losing (because Trump had already started losing). it is clear that the laws have to change in order for the executive branch to be on a good footing for that kind of change. notwithstanding that Mexico says no. but do we hard evidence that that policy keeps immigrants from moving north? one thing is clear... the president would have more legal powers over the border withe Senate border bill recently trashed. and we all know why and we all know that Trump didn't read it. as i've stated, this is all so short sited. and its short sited because Trump is short sited. he just needs to get in office and shut some of his legal problems down. he could give a rats a$$ about immigrants and the border. when he's in office it'll be his problem, the Dems can stonewall his powers and then blame him for it. an endless cycle.
  9. sorry you feel that way. you actually said that "if they don't care if their kids live or die why should we?". was that sarcasm? your other posts have provided what you think. you don't care about the death being handed out. and where is your proof that these people don't care about their children? that ridiculous. thats the bigotry. they are regular families. the fact that they have no where to go. the fact that they are ruled by armed militants that they did not elect. the fact that they are being slaughtered by an almighty force from above that has the same attitude as you do. Israel could do so much to protect them. they could open the wall and let women and children out! we all know they will not. and you continue to wave your flag about this! that the place needs to be levelled. you need to wake up. i'm not the left. i'm the middle. you are the one with the extreme views. you'd be willing to hand over power to the most powerful state in the world to some guy who will just "attempt" to be a dictator. and thats somehow better then the "kindly" old guy and the radical left who cares too much about underrepresented populations? i have children. i know the importance of being strict, self discipline etc... but people in the extreme right have no concept of focus. gays make up less than .1% of the population. there are people on here who feel exposure to them is the end of western civilization! its not. its not worth handing power to a known criminal with a penchant for cult like behaviour who, at heart only supports the business class in the end anyways after decades of pro-business policy allowing the top 1% to get richer and richer and everyone else sucking it up.
  10. and i guess that general lack of humanity is the mindset of the far right. from a far they're able to make such statements and go on with their day while their government pulverizes children. but i'm a firm believer that even you CdnFox... when confronted with one of these real children, not some imaginary one, would think twice. if you actually interacted with one of them... their only interest being to run and play, to ride their bikes, to laugh with their friends, the things you used to do when you were a child. i'd suspect that if you were in contact with any of them you would say "not this one". you meant the others. the ones who don't have a face. those ones are easy not to care about. the reality is that a very small number of people change the world. those people are responsible for the good stuff and the bad stuff. the rest just want to lead a normal life with just what they need.
  11. nobody is "solely" responsible for this. the US has a large immigration population and those people are sympathetic to the immigrant plight. the situation has not been improving economically or politically in the south. i myself am appalled that there is no discussion in the US about what to do about that... about preventing the conditions that make people need to leave where they are from. additionally, a large segment of the population do not want people dying crossing the border. these are the people you need to be convincing that there is a better way. replacing Biden doesn't make any of that go away. you can treat immigrants as harshly as you like. separate children indefinitely from their families for example. if you think thats the thing to do then you need to convince your neighbour its a good thing. or that its necessary. but if you look like an uncaring ahole then... you might not care. but it gets you nowhere. moving forward does not happen.
  12. they have a lot in common as far as personality. extreme narcissism for one. unmitigated desire for power over others. violent reactions to criticism. these people are born dictators. they're fine to be roaming around society, they're everywhere... but you don't want them having a finger on the button.
  13. its always a good day when people are able to see through their mental models that clouded by ideology and see a little truth.
  14. yes you do. and you need make arguments of why those were good things and how they could be perpetuated. and you need to be nicer to people.
  15. Trump is very selective about the dictators he likes. some... he doesn't like: 2017 Shayrat missile strike Death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi Assassination of Qasem Soleimani its just something his base can't answer. because they let others think for them (like the extreme left). when Fox told them that Iraq had to be invaded then they yelled it at the top of their lungs. now they talk about "forever wars" but in a selective fashion. the wars that Trump wants are not "forever wars". Putin needs a bullet in the head because he is a dictator. end of story. all dictators are bad news. this is a historical axiom that Trump wants to convince his followers is not true. because he is one. and the extreme right are ok with that.
  16. Crenshaw on Stefanik’s claim she could decertify election if VP: ‘Totally wrong’ Crenshaw told CNN’s Dana Bash Friday. “The Constitution gives you no power — you, being the vice president — gives you no power to decertify the election. It’s very clear.” actually i find Crenshaw interesting in general, because he doesn't tow the lies. and yet Trump has not gone after him. he is someone that Trump fears. GOP Congressman Dan Crenshaw says election deniers know they’re lying
  17. certain facts that Trump supporters can't answer... are silent. unless they just make some sweeping whataboutism or slag.
  18. no cites. no break down of logic. just name calling. you and @Delugeional are a lovely pair on this board.
