Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

So in other words the media should go along with his pretense that the dog-whistle is something other than a dog-whistle? And that is somehow "unbiased"? There is a difference between reporting that Trump said there will be a bloodbath in reference to the auto industry vs reporting that Trump said ...

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

Well I think this is the end of our conversation then If you insist, though I don't see why. I've made it clear all along, that I think Ukraine is fighting a lost cause. I want what's left of Ukraine to live and thrive. You, on the other hand, seem to be in favor of Ukraine fighting to the last 'ma...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

Oh. I wonder if the militia types did as quick a pivot as yourself opinion wise? I'm not sure what you are getting at. I haven't pivoted on my opinion in the least. I know as well as you do, that Trump loves to incite discontent and even violence. At the same time, the mainstream media also loves t...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

To be fair, it seems that the "bloodbath" Trump was talking about, was regarding the auto industry - not physical violence. As usual, the media circus persists in taking everything out of context. As such, it is becoming increasingly impossible to ascertain reality from media statements. This is equ...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

...but these seems like he is preparing his followers for violence in the wake of the election should he loose. I am unsure however how many will follow him, given what happened on January 6. I think it's safe to say that there will be violence should Trump lose. And yes, his words about a bloodbat...

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

US still supplying smaller aid packages 300m+ usd? Ukraine will chew through 300m in a couple of weeks max. They are already low (or run out) on ammo, so this drop in the bucket isn't going to turn the tide of Ukrainian battlefield retreat, let alone stop the expected imminent Russian offensive. Me...

Re: Trump - Criminal Prosecution

During WW2, the sitting president would send copies of intel briefs to the party nominees so that whichever was elected to office would know what was going on with the war effort. That continued after WW2 and hadn't been an issue until this orange buffoon. My understanding, is that your orange buff...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

I wonder what happens when Trump is president? Leave the NATO, withdraw any support for Ukranine? And what about Israel/Hamas and the tension in the Red Sea/Suez? Trump claims that the Hamas invasion would never have happened if he were president. Same as his claims re. Ukraine. Otherwise, while he...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

Looks like Trump has a very real chance of being reelected. The latest polls from The New York Times/Siena College, CBS News/YouGov, Fox News and The Wall Street Journal all gave Trump a higher percentage of the vote than Biden by margins ranging from 2 to 4 points. It will be close (as usual), but ...

Re: Trump - Criminal Prosecution

As Trump surely has blown any chance of getting back in the WH now? surely? How so? I don't see anything standing in the way of Trump's return to the White House. Certainly, it seems Trump's legal challenges have done nothing to dissuade Republican support. Even if there are some Republicans who di...

Re: Trump - Criminal Prosecution

So SCOTUS has ruled 9 - 0 in favour of keeping the traitor on the ballot... Given that Trump has never been convicted of insurrection, there was no basis for removing him from the ballot in the first place. SCOTUS did its job correctly from what I can see. As for democracy being at death's door, I'...

Motion to delay, DENIED!!!!!!! Good. Although, Trump may file for bankruptcy protection, which could nullify any fines he may have. I'm not sure if that is an option. Also, he stands to gain $4 billion from an approved merger between his media & technology group and Digital World Acquisition Corp. ...

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

Avdiivka officially taken. What's next? Is Russia still looking to take the whole country, or do they have a lesser goal in mind? Seems they have a pretty big chunk of Ukraine already. Certainly enough to provide them with their land bridge to Crimea. Will they call it mission accomplished at some p...

Re: Trump - Criminal Prosecution

Trump said "If I weren't running, none of this stuff would've ever happened, none of these lawsuits would've ever happened. I would've had a nice life". I think he meant "If I wasn't a crook, I would've had a nice life". I wonder if this will sour some of his supporters? Sometimes a master crook can...

Re: U.S. Presidential Election 2024

I think it might be a good idea for the President to be chosen by lottery. All natural born citizens between the ages of 35-60 would be eligible to be drafted into the job. The "lucky winner" would face a battery of tests and background checks to make sure they qualify. No election, no millions of d...

Meanwhile, it appears that Russia is beginning to use their Zircon hypersonic missile, which can evade any air defenses. The big question, is how many of these can they produce?

You make a good point. Perhaps the NATO emperor has no clothes after all? Perhaps Trump is ringing a bell that needs to be rang?

Re: Russia-Ukraine War

Russia must really hope that Trump becomes president again: allies must pay up or he will leave them at Russia's mercy. That's the kind of unhinged statement that will get him elected and he knows it. He also said that any more money we send Ukraine, must be in the form of a loan with strings attac...
