But yet you’d never admit that Trump is as dumb as they come. Many of his former cabinet members have stated how time after time he failed to grasp simple concepts.
I’m beginning to think you’re a bit biased and don’t like democrats. 😂
Bob Woodward says Trump & Putin have talked 7 times on the phone since 2021

- Start date

I suspect trump is smart. But a narcissist and I mean that in the true disorder sense. I had a partner who was one. Brilliant guy but that disorder would emerge in bizarre ways giving rise to strange behavior. I also think 80 year old trump is a watered down version of 50 yr old trump. He’s too old. He’s a bad choice. I’d only back him over a progressive. And I believe we’ll be more than fine with Vance
Looks like you're projecting here, CoH. You are the king of talking about things you don't understand. That's why you aren't able to back up your previous silly statements and explain the 60 Minutes "scandal". That's because it had nothing to do with anything CBS did or Kamala said and everything to do with your boy pulling out of his 60 Minutes interview because he was terrified that he'd again reveal himself to be the dim rageaholic that he is.
Trump was right about Iran.
Trump was right about Nordstream Ii
Trump was right about the adverse effects of DEI on the workforce.
Trump was right the importance of energy dominance in Diplomacy
Trump was right about permanent U.S. military bases in Poland.
Trump was right about the Abraham accords.
Trump was right about the agreements with the northern triangle countries Mexico
Trump was right about k-12 education
Trump was right about government censorship.
Trump was correct about Afghanistan.
All of those items caused people to laugh at him and call him names.
If Trump is so bad, why can’t he be exposed in the political arena in a fair fight instead of with the stupid hoaxes, lies, media manipulation and unprecedented statutory interpretations in obviously political prosecutions.
Nobody has publicly called Kamala a moron. She is one. The press covers for her just like they covered for Biden. Your mission should you choose to accept it is to list things she and Biden got correct of a magnitude similar to Trump.
You need to move off that 60 Minutes schtick. It has nothing to do with Kamala being dumb. Your Trump whutabout is immaterial.
That could be more interesting than today’s landscape, were it not for the reporting that it’s more likely they are collaborating for the same outcome.
Yes, during LeMay’s SAC tenure, B52’s flew in loops in international airspace. The Minute Man ICBMs made the practice obsolete. It was interesting to learn from ‘Nam that even the lumbering B-52 Stratofortress could duck the SA-2 that downed Gary Powers.
PS. There are a few movies: “Strategic Air Command”, “Fail Safe” and “Dr. Strangelove”

Wright Pat would be high on the list, yes. It’s an air systems research hub.
And the opportunity economy is lipstick on a Neo Marxist pig, as the opportunity is for equal equity and not equal opportunity.
I’m sure there are a few from Berkeley and Cambridge: Even the University of Chicago, where Milton Friedman is rolling in his grave.
And he’s less mentally stable than he was, and he wasn’t mentally stable his first term. He’s also losing mental acuity due to aging. He’s an old geezer and will never recover that.
More from Woodward’s book:
“No one has ever been as dangerous to this country as Donald Trump,” the general told Woodward. “Now I realize he’s a total fascist. He is the most dangerous person to this country.”
It’s interesting to read rfk Jr and his posts on ending the war machine and his disdain for Cheney and Rumsfeld etc
I don't think Trump really wants the presidency. I think he wants the job only for the adulation that comes with it. He's been there/done that. The whole thing is old hat to him.
And as such he wants only to pardon himself and "lead" the country to fascism. Who knows what he's thinking about when it comes to succession.
First paragraph yes
Second no after pardoning. He doesn’t care about ideological.
The Habsburgs spent a couple of centuries transforming the Empire from an elective one into a hereditary one. It wasn't easy. I don't think it could be accomplished now. But I think Trump would be exceedingly satisfied if somehow he could pass his presidency off to one of his children.
Maybe. If he's who I think he is, he'd rather a blood relative than an adopted son.
He’s done about the closest thing he can do right now to accomplish that. The Vance selection was all Don, Jr. I’d be surprised if Junior doesn’t hold that over Vance’s head and remind him that he has the Trump name and the ability to break him as easy as he made him.
Trump doesn’t care a lick about Vance. Except insofar as he helps him get elected.
Oh, yeah, J.D. is Octavius and will become Augustus.
Thanks for making this place more weird.
Next, you’ll be telling us IU over OSU, giving 7.5.
I remember the laughter during and afterwards when, during his address to the UNGA, Trump warned of German dependency on Russian energy. He was widely panned for that, but where did Germany find themselves just a few years later? An energy crisis.
The guy's default setting may be half-cocked as it were, but that was a fair bit of soothsaying.
You may be right about Trump in regards to what a Russia/Ukraine peace deal/terms would look like and what he (Trump) would or wouldn't be fine with/care about. That said, it would be remiss if one doesn't consider that both of Russia's incursions into Ukraine happened during Democrat led US administrations. I would add that since a country's sovereignty (at least ours) seems to be a pillar of Trump's platform, I think it's at least plausible that maybe he won't be so keen on allowing Russia to keep the oblasts they currently occupy? And I know it's popular around here to paint Trump as a FOV (friend of Vlad), I also remember when Russia got a little too big for their britches in Syria and got their asses handed to them courtesy of the US special forces in 2018. Just food for thought /shrug.
I voted today. A mother hen hovered to find out how I voted.
I get lots of political texts, and I text back "stop" on all of them, Dem and Pub alike. They're very aggressive.
Got my absentee ballot back. Now I have to decide on the Republican I'm writing in for President. I'm open for suggestions.
DeSantis is still there. Vivek is a choice of some. Romney is still alive and kicking. And there's always Bob Dole, who isn't.
Don't think I'll pick any of them. I dislike Vivek. Romney is done, Dole is dead. DeSantis is a possibility, but I'm not a huge fan. I'm trying to find someone that could win in 2024. Haley is currently at the top of my list.
Nope. I'm not in her market.
I've had an Alzheimer patient say she loved me and that we were going to get married the next morning. She ended up crying when she saw my son in my apt. a couple of weeks ago. I have another memory care patient who apparently thinks I'm her son.
I don't know why they pick me out. Might be my natural reticence.

Better send me your address. I'll ship you a box of Viagra.
You're going to need it.
It seems to me that throwing away your vote is tacitly displaying support for Trump
I live in Ohio. Trump will win Ohio. It's not even in play. There haven't been any Trump or Harris commercials on the air here because both campaigns know Trump will win the state.
Men in assisted living are outnumbered 10-1. He's going to be in demand.
It seems like in about 43-45 states there is no real contest and your vote doesn't matter. That's a mark against the electoral college system, though it has other things going for it.
I wish each state would throw out the winner-take-all formula for state distribution of EC votes and proportion them by district, though district gerrymandering would also need to be addressed
They hit all over my dad in the nursing home and he was a zombie.
I have a longtime friend who is still scarred from walking in on his dad banging another resident—bent her over his bed—at his nursing home.
What made it worse? He had his
15-year-old son with him.
