US Politics

Lets see if we can keep this thread a little more civil.

I found this interview very interesting.  A lot of soft balls thrown at Trump, he explained his back pedalling on his more extreme issues as a lot of his claims as opening bids for negotiation purposes.  Which .. whatever .. I still think that those are insincere claims he used to get elected.

He does now come across way more presidential then he did prior to the election.  A lot of his noise, yelling, and rhetoric has been scaled back.

Do respect this one though:

Quote

 

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

Pretty rich commentary from someone who was quoted as saying the following: 

"Madame Speaker, a silent genocide has slipped beneath the conscience of America. Precious works of our creator formed and set apart meet death before they breathe life. Eternal souls, woven into earthen vessels, sanctified by Almighty God, and endowed with the miracle of life are denied their birth by a nation born of freedom. God's breath of life blown away by the breath of man."

What a ******* jerkstore.

He’s obviously not human. With all that has been going on for the last 24 months it would make complete sense that there is imbecile non earth aliens among us.

Always remember Trumps part in the Ukraine

And who demands that all voters need a valid license as proof of ID to be eligible to vote. 

Read his Wikipedia bio. You know, I had never wanted to punch a guy in the face who was confined to a wheelchair before today. 

I find ppl who have been in wheelchairs most/all their life are some of the biggest entitled pricks around  

Truly. May sound wrong but there is a sense of entitlement there. This guy takes it to the extreme tho

Even if Trump does not really intend to run, he will keep up the pretense as long as possible to grift every last possible penny from his deluded followers.

And when these idiots lose again, they will not question their beliefs, they will seethe with indignance and claim fraud. They cannot admit that they are so out of touch with most voters that they will lose a lot more often than win.

The GOP has not given up on the strategy of the individual state governments arbitrarily choosing who their electors will be if they do not like the popular vote

Can't count on the courts either. The top court has a justice, a predator, who's wife is a terrorist, another hand picked to overturn RvW, and another sexual predator, who's bills magically got paid, prior to being appointed to the top court. 

It's just a flyover country now. 

Leaked Kremlin Memo Told Russian Media To Feature Lots Of Tucker Carlson: Report

The Kremlin asked state-controlled Russian media to highlight Fox News host Tucker Carlson’s broadcasts “as much as possible” due to his criticisms of the U.S. and its NATO allies in his coverage of the Ukraine crisis, Mother Jones reported.

A leaked 12-page memo from a Russian government agency to media on March 3 said “it is essential to use as much as possible fragments of broadcasts” by Carlson, according to a translation by Mother Jones, which said it obtained the note from a contributor to a national Russian media outlet.

Carlson “sharply criticizes” the actions of the U.S. and NATO and their “negative role in unleashing the conflict in Ukraine,” the memo said, per the news site.

Carlson is also critical of the “defiantly provocative behavior from the leadership of the Western countries and NATO towards the Russian Federation and towards President Putin, personally,” it reportedly continued.

U.S. Senate votes unanimously to make Daylight Savings permanent in November 2023. Move still needs approval of House of Representatives and president to become law.

Today in an interview, Madison Cawthorne admitted that he brought more than one firearm to the January 6th attempted insurrection. It will be interesting to see if there will be any consequences to this. Probably not.
