August1991 Posted August 12, 2022 Report Share Posted August 12, 2022 As a Canadian, I recently drove through Vermont and New Hampshire. I stopped in Starbucks. Bought Big Macs. I saw the people at the beach. Simply looking at a person, hearing them, I could predict what the person thought of Trump. ===== America is foolishly divided. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of IQ’s are under 100. Their guy captures all of them, so the rest of the GOP only needs another 5 or 10% of the votes after the sub-100’s.

I don't think that they understand the forces buffeting them. But I have so many questions.... What are the beaches like in Vermont? What's a Starbucks Big Mac taste like?? ?

What is foolish about strongly opposing someone who cares more about personal power than the will of the electorate and is willing to lie and incite violence to keep personal power? IMO, Trump believes he is above the law based on his claims of absolute immunity. Trump claims he has “absolute immunity” from Jan. 6 lawsuits in new court filing And it's NOT the first time he's tried that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lake Champlain is beautiful and Starbucks Big Macs taste like overprocessed garbage. What I want to know is how on earth did he find anyone MAGA in Vermont. When I was last in Burlington, I got my hair cut. I asked my barber what she thought of Bernie Sanders. She said, “Uh, well… I’m not a big fan.” I asked her why, and she said, “When he started out, he said ‘Tax the millionaires,’ but now, he says ‘Tax the billionaires.’ “ So there you have it: Burlington, VT is too liberal for Bernie! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly DOUBT it is "wonderful" that a rank amateur pol and demagogue like Trump can become POTUS by LYING all the time and appealing to the worst instincts of the "poorly educated" (whom he "loves"). ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogOnPorch Posted September 8, 2022 Report Share Posted September 8, 2022 Many politicians view themselves as above the laws that you must follow. It's simply the nature of the scorpion. Insider trading? Bad if you do it...a virtue when Pelosi does it. Mask mandates? Only for you...ask Boris or Justin. If you can tear them away from the scallops wrapped in bacon....$7000+ grocery bill per month at Trudeau's house on your dime...betcha it isn't bugs. Etc..etc...etc...there are many examples. Their attitude? Let them eat cake. Forgetting that Madam Guillotine goes swoosh....dummies. Let's hope they get their heads on straight...

America is already great. And putting a fascist in charge won’t make us greater, it will destroy us. He lost by 4 million votes, then he lost by 7 million votes and staged a riot to try to stay in power. Now he has lawyers trying to impose new rules to allow state legislatures to overturn any presidential election results they want. There is nothing good about subverting the vote.

American. ==== I don't think that you Americans quite understand your position in the world. == As a Canadian, I travel abroad differently than you. I enjoy all the privileges of being American without any of the consequences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
