We all know precisely what happened, and as I say to the election-fraud-deniers: the only way not to know is to want-not-to-know - not "not want to know;" it takes actual, intentional action - not just ignorance, but willful ignorance - to deny the 2020 presidential election and to call Alleged President Joe Stolen anything resembling "president."
Alleged president Joe stolen sounds like the theft is only alleged. You know and I know there is nothing alleged, and as you said, those who say otherwise are in denial so deep that alligators are their companions.
When I read 2Corinthians 11, I'm reminded of the Mormons who live very decent lives, yet they claim Jesus is not the begotten son of GOD. They say that Satan and Jesus are brothers, not creator and created.
In my best Tennessee accent, "I'm onna say this one mo' time. I remember back when you logged in as Bill Ayers and thought in my other best Tennessee accent, "Well, bless his heart!" Ask any southern lady what all that means.
Having lived close to the Okefenokee Swamp long enough to know that alligators love the plop of Kraft Marshmallows on swamp water. Only my fearless wife and daughters would remain behind me after our impatient guests, including a bus load of Travecca Nazarene Choir skedaddled back to the bus. The site of a 13-ish foot 2 to 300 lb alligator that magically appeared with no warning huge jaws wide open and roaring as hismeans of begging for marshmallows was too intimidating for them to remain in the open to take pictures. Our brief time there left us with an accent with the girls which was ridiculed by the teachers when we moved north because they always said yes ma'am and no ma'am and sir. My oldest daughter still loves grits. And I have a hankering for cheesy yellow squash casserole. My 1st wife, whenever she was called a Damn Yankee would gently remind them that the South did lose the war. WELL, BLESS YOUR HEART! was reserved for child molesters and terrorists.
Trevecca!! Dude. My tiny little Bethel College could have been set down in the middle of Trevecca's campus. We coulda all been cousins! The sisters that lived next door to us both went to Trevecca. Irrelevant info: My boyfriend at the time went to David Lipscomb. My aunt's yellow squash casserole was better than Mama's! That sounds like heresy, now that I've written it.
Although Lynne was incredibly fearless, she did have her limits. When we camped on the Florida side of the Okefenokee Swamp while we were canoeing with the daughters between us and an alligator that was bigger than the canoe pulled up beside us and she made a no compromise decision to turn the canoe around and I had to follow suit with her since I was in the canoe.
Wow! On this site, (at this moment) 39% would still roll with DeSantis.
I’m pretty sure there is going to be a pretty public attempt on T’s life in the next 12 months. To me the FBI is setting the players in place for it as we speak. The last few celebrity’ unhinged ‘Shooters” have all been trans freaks who were on the FBI’s ‘Radar’. See how this works! I hope his security is the best that money can buy cause I’m not even comfortable with the SS at this point.
I picked Vivek, maybe even Kennedy if he were an option. I really would love Trump to put Vivek in his administration and RFK,jr in charge of the CDC. I'd like to see DJT put people in charge of dismantling the UN, IRS, Dept of Edu. and any other superfluous deadwood agency.
I didn't vote because there were no acceptable choices including "nobody"
Yes, it is very likely T will have an attempt on his life before the election and I think it will be set up as a terrorist plot from an Iranian sleeper cell that is already here. Also, can't trust the SS as you stated. Won't take a guess as to whether that attempt will be successful, but if he makes it out of his court entrapments, it will be their last option. By any means necessary . . . .
Agree. There are more reasons than opposing Trump to be wary of DeSantis. I like the way he treats the media but he's not first on my list to replace Trump.
I give him credit for a lot of things in Florida, but there are many more things he has missed such as allowing his lawyer lobby to effectively push insurance competition(Farmers) out of the state.
It's sad to me that so many in the GOP have turned on DeSantis simply because he is running against Trump. Mr. DeSantis is not a bad choice, just the not the one we need right now. But that doesn't mean we should discount him and trash him. He is a far better choice for president than GW Bush, McCain, and Romney, were. He is far better than Bill Clinton was for sure. I really worry about my party when they lose perspective like this and trash DeSantis simply for opposing the favorite. Let me just say that no one knows who Trump will pick for VP yet, and it could be DeSantis if the polls and analysts tell Trump he is the right choice to get elected. This is politics after all and the number one pick and number two picks don't have to sleep together to govern together.
DeSantis should have waited another four years. At this point, he has not shown himself to be ready for the national stage. I don't know how his current and uninspiring run is going to affect his political future. He should go home to Florida.
I respectfully disagree. He would be the front runner if Trump was not running. We would all be touting his accomplishments as well. We in the GOP have fallen for the same tactics affecting the Dem donks. Politics today in America means you have to destroy the opposition to support your candidate. How is that any different than virtually any South American country?
“IF Trump we’re not running” is the key phrase here!
But he IS running! And to be running AGAINST him, as all these so-called contenders are, is just the first strike against each of them.
That act in itself reveals they don’t have a clue about MAGA, or how much the entire political landscape has so dramatically changed since Trump was first elected.
They are ALL, to varying ways and degrees, playing for the other team. Otherwise, they would be wholeheartedly supporting the only TRUE candidate for the Republican Party, Donald J. Trump.
Or, they do understand what the movement is, and they have a different idea about how to achieve the same end result. Maybe, or not, I don't know. We each have our own cherished view of what is happening in real time. We are all probably right in one sense or another. But politics is not always about winning first place. It is about advancing one's name so people can get to know you. And it can be about setting oneself up for another prize such as a key agency position or other plum position. Halley is counting on Trump being disqualified from office in order to win. But she is a politician and knows a strong following in the GOP if she does not win will position her with strength for some other role in that administration. Ramaswamy has no chance to win and he knows it, not in this election at least. He is playing the long game and may hold a desire for some agency job under Trump. The rest.............pft! Again, my point in all this is not to destroy a person simply because he is running at the wrong time and in the wrong election. Ruining someone in our party for no benefit is counter productive. So until Mr. Trump is declared the nominee, perhaps we all need some restraint in candidate bashing. Remember 2021? 2022? 2023? 2024 is going to make those years and events seem mild by comparison and we need all the good people we can find.
So what is your assessment of Mr. DeSantis? I am honestly interested in why so many chose to bash or ignore him. All I hear here is that he is a bad guy because he dared run against Trump. Doing so does not make him my enemy. He has things to bring to the table for the party and it makes no sense to trash him unless there is a factual basis to do so. He is no perfect conservative for sure but then neither is Trump. That person does not exist, never did. But Mr. Trump and Mr. DeSantis are light years closer to what we need in this country than anyone else running. They both have shown an ability to take on the heavyweights and win. And for the right reasons. I just don't see that as a bad thing.
I'm with you on this one, Reddog--if for some reason Trump is taken out of the picture--we are really going to need DeSantis. DeSantis "is no Trump", but for several years as Florida governor he was the next closest to Trump we have. The Left is thrilled that they have tarnished DeSantis with Republican voters. Their being thrilled, should alert us to not fall into their trap and bash our best Plan B.
Though I did vote for Donald Trump Jr. in the poll-- because if Trump himself is still alive but just disqualified, he would still be the actual President behind the scenes. If Obama can do it, so can Trump.
I don't count on anyone telling Trump who to pick. But he is no fool either, and he has a lot of people advising him that we both see and never know about. He will wait until the right time to make a decision but I suspect he already has three people picked and will make the final decision based on polling at the opportune moment. Tghe choices are important too, as important as Mr. Trump himself. We all know his next term will be more of the same from the first and he will be limited as to what he can get done. It will be the person coming after him who will accomplish as much or more and that is a big deal indeed. I may be out there on this one but if the GOP doesn't start accomplishing something in the next year instead of talking about it, there could be some big surprises in congressional elections come 2024 that we are not going to like. If we don't keep the House and gain the Senate, just how much will Trump be able to accomplish? The GOP needs to get busy with something besides fundraising and tough talk.
My point is still valid. No we do not want donks picking the vp. But what does it say about us as a party if we destroy a man just because he isnt Trump?
We have the benefit of a first term of DJT to measure against just the three years so far of Biden to expose in sharp relief the destruction and havoc FJB has wrought, and primarily for DISmantling all the accomplishments of PDJT!
For any candidate to claim to be running against FJB not to make that the center point of their campaign, the bright neon difference between the two administrations is dereliction of duty. DeSantis (most likely coached to do so), goes out of his way to AVOID giving the Trump administration ANY credit for - never even referencing - its stunning accomplishments that are too long to list here for Making America Great Again!
And as if that wasn’t bad enough, he goes so far as to bad mouth DJT!
So exactly what IS he offering if it’s not to proclaim how great we had it four short years ago by highlighting and pledging to restart the policies that Made America Great Again under Trump?
At the very least, it is clearly obvious and most glaringly that he is not “his own man”, regardless of his accomplishments as FL’s Governor. He’s exposed himself as a weak puppet for a cabal that does in no way have the best interests of the country in mind.
Tricky Nikki is not even hiding her Uniparty allegiance, and Vivek is a cipher to me - says all the seemingly right things but…something’s amiss there I can’t put my finger on.
It is Trump or we’re doomed, as it is clear we have no one on bench either to truly take up his mantle.
Your comment is valid. But just for the sake of debate, what would you have Mr. DeSantis do when he is attacked daily, just roll over and take it? Seems to me we had a president like that a while back in GW Bush. I don't want another Bush nor another candidate like him just turning the other cheek. DeSantis didn't start it, Mr. Trump did. The petty comments he sometimes makes without thinking just annoy the hell out of me as they do a lot of voters. They are his Achilles heal in that regard. I am all-in for Trump if he is our nominee or not. But until we all see the final nominees in both party's, maybe we need to stop bashing the person who would be the nominee most likely if Trump wasn't it. Let's don't cut off our noses to spite our selves here.
Trump is not calling him out for no reason. He’s onto him.
The fact that Ron! chose to make an enemy of him. rather than support him and applaud his vast number of historical accomplishments when he was the President of the United States, tells me all I need to know.
DeSantis destroyed himself and his political career way back when he was in Congress, when he cut the $$ deal to run and work his way into a governorship and then onto a challenge to President Trump.
They were all at Sea Island together with the "Never-Trumpers" making their villainous plans to set-up Trump and take him out.
DeSantis didn't destroy anything, including himself. He should have waited four years perhaps but then look who else is running. Halley, a RINO. Ramaswamy, a slick talking rookie (Didn't we learn anything from the Obama election?) I have no idea what the "$$ deal to run is". If you mean he made some deal to run with the support of some backers, how the hell is that any different than any other politician who has ever run for office? Good grief, it takes a billion dollars in support to run for president today. Where do you think the money comes from? It isn't $5 contributions that get it done. Doesn't make it right either but that is our reality. Until I hear some actual verifiable facts regarding Mr. DeSantis, not going to change my mind. And I would note here that if anyone thinks there is any such thing as "the perfect conservative", I would just say they are fooling themselves. The person does not exist. Ike was a Democrat. Reagan was a Democrat. Trump has always leaned left on many issues and given heavily to the Dems. None would be considered perfect conservatives, yet they turned out to be great presidents.
Back when Scott Walker was cleaning up Wisconsin, lots of people at the conservative treehouse were supporting him. The day after he announced his candidacy for president, Sundance said avoid him like the plague. A simple look at his campaign staff revealed that he was in bed with the deep state just like his cohort Ryan.
Destroyed? I would think getting elected Governor of Florida is a pretty big feather in his cap, and once Trump leaves the stage DeSantis will be the standard bearer.
I was loving on DeSantis like he was made of chocolate back when he gave Disney what-for. But I'll dance with the one that brung me and that was Trump. I will give kudos where due, to the others with guts to toss a hat in the the ring. Even poor old Kennedy! Bless his heart. Really! He has a tough throat muscle disease that cannot be cured.
Agreed. There doesn't have to always be a bad guy when choosing someone to support. Sometimes it’s all about timing and need, and right now, that’s Mr. Trump. That doesn't reduce Mr. DeSantis accomplishments at all. As for Mr. Kennedy, he has an uphill fight on so many levels ahead of him. He is sort of the Last Boyscout in what used to be the Democrat party. Happy New Year to you.
Catherine Herridge, an genuine journalist, even though Bannon says she's a mouthpiece for the DoD, warned that she thinks there will be a black swan event this year. She's probably preparing the public to accept it by fore-warning us (there's a neologism for that, but I forget what it is). I can think of a couple of things that could happen, but an assassination attempt has the appeal to our enemies that, if it doesn't succeed, yet it still creates a golden opportunity for false flag riots, which in turn create an excuse for lockdowns and forcing the whole country to use mail-in ballots.
Don't imagine that Ron Klain or Marc Elias and their deep state minions aren't already laying rail for that.
I saw that report. Herridge is a “feet-on-the-ground” straight shooter. She’s been all over on the front lines. Despite being in main stream media, she has some cred in my book. It will be interesting to wait and see.
The SS successfully saw to the demise of JFK. They were less successful with Reagan, he was tougher than woodpecker lips. If Trump is as wise as I believe he is, he doesn't trust them an inch.
Don lays this on Barry big ears, but this goes much deeper. Barry was just an assclown for the big money people who control most of our politicians. Yes, he hates Trump almost as much as he hates real women, but if the money changers were fine with Trump, Barry would have been sent to Hawaii and told to play golf.
What I'm trying to comprehend is how anyone could support DeScamus. He is as uniparty as lyin Ryan. For me there were two choices, Trump Jr and none of the above. I went with Jr because we need someone to piss off the media.
Gotta agree with you there. There's got to already be a Grassy Knoll association in place somewhere besides Dallas. It will grieve my heart as though it was family. This has been an emotional week for me with the passing of my dearest friend who was 3 months younger than I am.
Thank you. We became friends in 7th grade, the first year of a brand new junior high building to the ancient high school. We used to borrow each other's clothes (to the consternation of our mothers!)
What an incredible life blessing you have had to have a friend of such long-standing. You both must have had excellent qualities to not let your relationship get ruptured at some point along the way. What a comfort and support it must have been over the years.
Being a nothing is a relative term. Biden is a complete nothing for leaving a legacy of achievements to our quality of life, but that is not why he is there.
Biden's achievements are to steal our wealth through horrendous inflation and printing of money, erosion of all institutions that hold our society together including the family, schools/education, church, law enforcement, and traditional marriage.
Biden is the eraser on your No.2 pencil. He takes away and destroys. That's not nothing.
The voters who still want Biden are also the people standing in line for the next COVID booster shot.
Yes. When it comes to the Biden presidency it really should be stated “Nothing Good”, just a plethora of misery, and not even just for this country, but the entire world. It’s breathtaking really, when you stop to consider the wreckage he has wrought upon literally every corner of the world in just three years!
Absolutely the entire world is more broke and more dangerous than it has been in 80 years! I suppose you could call that an accomplishment if you were deranged and had murder / suicide as your motive.
Why and how there can possibly be people who don’t yet grasp that is either due to wilful blindness and/ or their being afflicted with same derangement.
I wouldn't give Biden quite so much credit for he is just a midget of a man taking orders from nefarious individuals whose goal is global dominance and control. This group has been at work for decades and was even mentioned by the Bushes way back we he mentioned the New World Order. I guess that idea morphed into today's World Economic Forum.
They’re also the people waiting for that entitlement check to arrive in the mail. And the felons waiting for their “get out of jail free card. And the trannies in what’s left of the military waiting for their tax payer funded mutilations. I could go on and on and on but y’all already know the rest of the list.
“Winston Churchill 1940: “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.”
Joe Biden today: “I have nothing to offer.”
President Nothing. “
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Probably a little of both is in order.
They took Nixon out over an amateur burglary, but mostly just wanted to take him out because he was popular and Republican and outside the permanent DC establishment. We have a place keeper dimwit President who has committed real crimes and lots of them. He continues to break the law every day on our borders. He’s owned by China, Obama, Iran, and is demented. Yet Republicans in Congress smooth their skirts and look the other way.
Anybody who believes Trump is guilty of anything other than maybe masochism and love of country is a moron. Most of us would have folded a long time ago. If the dumbasses and cretins persecuting Trump ever had anything we would have seen it after 8 years and how many millions of dollars of our money wasted? All they have is power and malice. They invent crimes that don’t exist in order to charge him. It’s theater of the absurd. Even Salvador Dali couldn’t paint this picture.
Trump 2024. DeSantis would be better than a Democrat, but he’s lost some stature with this ridiculous campaign. The rest of the Republicans running, no. Clown car. Vivek has sone interesting ideas. But he would get eaten alive in the Swamp. Nikki Haley is a Democrat.
There is a lot to be said about a man who keeps his mother's bible close. That is honorable, even if DJT is possibly a self made man. Lots of men lost the fortunes their millionaire dad's left them. Trump did not bury those "talents" in the ground. He increased them.
1. Ron!, to me, is just deep state lite. As a Florida resident I voted for him twice, campaigned for him, gave money to his campaign and he stabbed us in the back by running for president 5 months after getting reelected. Some gratitude.
2. Nikki is deep state in a skirt. Lately she has been stepping in it biggly- the slavery and the Civil War had her stumped
3. Won’t vote for a skinny guy with a weird foreign name. Our past experience with this is still haunting us.
"The press has never fully explained why people voted for [Biden]."
As the saying goes: Trump got the votes; Biden got the ballots.
We all know precisely what happened, and as I say to the election-fraud-deniers: the only way not to know is to want-not-to-know - not "not want to know;" it takes actual, intentional action - not just ignorance, but willful ignorance - to deny the 2020 presidential election and to call Alleged President Joe Stolen anything resembling "president."
Alleged president Joe stolen sounds like the theft is only alleged. You know and I know there is nothing alleged, and as you said, those who say otherwise are in denial so deep that alligators are their companions.
I should have been more clear. Let's try this:
Alleged President by Some, Joe Stolen
Fixed it.
Reminds me of the Robin hood cartoon movie. The phony king ... Or in this case the phony president.
Thanks for that "saying goes." I will quote it next chance I get.
Chuckles and smiles... Too bad the Lightbringer started his political career in your dining room... :-D
More like lite bringer. Light implies something that dispels darkness. Barry is lite in the loafers.
…but then again, even the Bible says the devil himself transformed himself into an angel of light, only to deceive.
2Corinthians 11:14
Barry isn't the devil, but he sure acts like him.
When I read 2Corinthians 11, I'm reminded of the Mormons who live very decent lives, yet they claim Jesus is not the begotten son of GOD. They say that Satan and Jesus are brothers, not creator and created.
I like his nickname, Mr. Mom Jeans. Hanging curtains. It got posted to Lucianne.com once upon a time. Laughed myself hoarse!
Calm down, I am joking! Lol...

I woke up this morning with a vague sense of dread. Now I know why.
I feel the same on RdS... Belongs to globalist billionaires who just gave Xi a standing ovation in SanFran last month.
Agree. There are more reasons than opposing Trump to be wary of DeSantis. I like the way he treats the media but he's not first on my list to replace Trump.
I give him credit for a lot of things in Florida, but there are many more things he has missed such as allowing his lawyer lobby to effectively push insurance competition(Farmers) out of the state.

Lets hope our judicial system still has some integrity left in it. Prayers help.
Don't count on ANYONE telling (or forcing) President Trump to choose ANYONE for VP.
He's busy, with his interviews, getting that message out there.
Check out Breitbart, they daily headline their latest in-depth interview with 45.
I don't count on anyone telling Trump who to pick. But he is no fool either, and he has a lot of people advising him that we both see and never know about. He will wait until the right time to make a decision but I suspect he already has three people picked and will make the final decision based on polling at the opportune moment. Tghe choices are important too, as important as Mr. Trump himself. We all know his next term will be more of the same from the first and he will be limited as to what he can get done.

If we don't keep the House and gain the Senate, just how much will Trump be able to accomplish? The GOP needs to get busy with something besides fundraising and tough talk.
That damn logic keeps showing up Reddog.
I'm a propagandized civil / structural engineer. I can't help it. I think it's my parents fault. Couldn't be mine for Pete's sake.
Thanks for the head's up; I did not know that!!
Except that, like Harris and Newsom, Trump and DeSantis are from the same state. Do we really want a demonicrat run senate to choose our VP?
My point is still valid. No we do not want donks picking the vp. But what does it say about us as a party if we destroy a man just because he isnt Trump?
I believe it goes deeper than that.
We have the benefit of a first term of DJT to measure against just the three years so far of Biden to expose in sharp relief the destruction and havoc FJB has wrought, and primarily for DISmantling all the accomplishments of PDJT!
For any candidate to claim to be running against FJB not to make that the center point of their campaign, the bright neon difference between the two administrations is dereliction of duty.

And as if that wasn’t bad enough, he goes so far as to bad mouth DJT!
So exactly what IS he offering if it’s not to proclaim how great we had it four short years ago by highlighting and pledging to restart the policies that Made America Great Again under Trump?
At the very least, it is clearly obvious and most glaringly that he is not “his own man”, regardless of his accomplishments as FL’s Governor. He’s exposed himself as a weak puppet for a cabal that does in no way have the best interests of the country in mind.
Tricky Nikki is not even hiding her Uniparty allegiance, and Vivek is a cipher to me - says all the seemingly right things but…something’s amiss there I can’t put my finger on.
It is Trump or we’re doomed, as it is clear we have no one on bench either to truly take up his mantle.
Your comment is valid. But just for the sake of debate, what would you have Mr. DeSantis do when he is attacked daily, just roll over and take it? Seems to me we had a president like that a while back in GW Bush. I don't want another Bush nor another candidate like him just turning the other cheek. DeSantis didn't start it, Mr. Trump did. The petty comments he sometimes makes without thinking just annoy the hell out of me as they do a lot of voters. They are his Achilles heal in that regard. I am all-in for Trump if he is our nominee or not. But until we all see the final nominees in both party's, maybe we need to stop bashing the person who would be the nominee most likely if Trump wasn't it. Let's don't cut off our noses to spite our selves here.
Trump is not calling him out for no reason. He’s onto him.
The fact that Ron! chose to make an enemy of him. rather than support him and applaud his vast number of historical accomplishments when he was the President of the United States, tells me all I need to know.
Stop the logic Reddog/sarc
It's pretty obvious that there is mutual antagonism between Trump and De Santis, unfortunately.
Because DeSantis is in the anti-Trumper camp.
Tells you all you need to know.
DeSantis destroyed himself and his political career way back when he was in Congress, when he cut the $$ deal to run and work his way into a governorship and then onto a challenge to President Trump.
They were all at Sea Island together with the "Never-Trumpers" making their villainous plans to set-up Trump and take him out.
DeSantis didn't destroy anything, including himself. He should have waited four years perhaps but then look who else is running. Halley, a RINO. Ramaswamy, a slick talking rookie (Didn't we learn anything from the Obama election?) I have no idea what the "$$ deal to run is". If you mean he made some deal to run with the support of some backers, how the hell is that any different than any other politician who has ever run for office? Good grief, it takes a billion dollars in support to run for president today. Where do you think the money comes from? It isn't $5 contributions that get it done. Doesn't make it right either but that is our reality. Until I hear some actual verifiable facts regarding Mr. DeSantis, not going to change my mind. And I would note here that if anyone thinks there is any such thing as "the perfect conservative", I would just say they are fooling themselves. The person does not exist. Ike was a Democrat. Reagan was a Democrat. Trump has always leaned left on many issues and given heavily to the Dems. None would be considered perfect conservatives, yet they turned out to be great presidents.
Back when Scott Walker was cleaning up Wisconsin, lots of people at the conservative treehouse were supporting him. The day after he announced his candidacy for president, Sundance said avoid him like the plague. A simple look at his campaign staff revealed that he was in bed with the deep state just like his cohort Ryan.
RdS is no different.
People crucified the only perfect person !!
Destroyed? I would think getting elected Governor of Florida is a pretty big feather in his cap, and once Trump leaves the stage DeSantis will be the standard bearer.
I was loving on DeSantis like he was made of chocolate back when he gave Disney what-for. But I'll dance with the one that brung me and that was Trump. I will give kudos where due, to the others with guts to toss a hat in the the ring. Even poor old Kennedy! Bless his heart. Really! He has a tough throat muscle disease that cannot be cured.
Agreed. There doesn't have to always be a bad guy when choosing someone to support. Sometimes it’s all about timing and need, and right now, that’s Mr. Trump. That doesn't reduce Mr. DeSantis accomplishments at all. As for Mr. Kennedy, he has an uphill fight on so many levels ahead of him. He is sort of the Last Boyscout in what used to be the Democrat party. Happy New Year to you.
Thanks muchas.
Catherine Herridge, an genuine journalist, even though Bannon says she's a mouthpiece for the DoD, warned that she thinks there will be a black swan event this year. She's probably preparing the public to accept it by fore-warning us (there's a neologism for that, but I forget what it is). I can think of a couple of things that could happen, but an assassination attempt has the appeal to our enemies that, if it doesn't succeed, yet it still creates a golden opportunity for false flag riots, which in turn create an excuse for lockdowns and forcing the whole country to use mail-in ballots.
Don't imagine that Ron Klain or Marc Elias and their deep state minions aren't already laying rail for that.
I saw that report. Herridge is a “feet-on-the-ground” straight shooter. She’s been all over on the front lines. Despite being in main stream media, she has some cred in my book. It will be interesting to wait and see.
Pay attention. Take notes.
Take notes? I’ll take bets on the event and its timing. Vegas will set the odds soon.
GMTA.
Can you translate that?
Great minds think alike.
The SS successfully saw to the demise of JFK. They were less successful with Reagan, he was tougher than woodpecker lips. If Trump is as wise as I believe he is, he doesn't trust them an inch.
Don lays this on Barry big ears, but this goes much deeper. Barry was just an assclown for the big money people who control most of our politicians. Yes, he hates Trump almost as much as he hates real women, but if the money changers were fine with Trump, Barry would have been sent to Hawaii and told to play golf.
What I'm trying to comprehend is how anyone could support DeScamus. He is as uniparty as lyin Ryan. For me there were two choices, Trump Jr and none of the above. I went with Jr because we need someone to piss off the media.
Gotta agree with you there. There's got to already be a Grassy Knoll association in place somewhere besides Dallas. It will grieve my heart as though it was family. This has been an emotional week for me with the passing of my dearest friend who was 3 months younger than I am.
So very sorry for your loss, Lawsy.
Thank you. We became friends in 7th grade, the first year of a brand new junior high building to the ancient high school. We used to borrow each other's clothes (to the consternation of our mothers!)
What an incredible life blessing you have had to have a friend of such long-standing. You both must have had excellent qualities to not let your relationship get ruptured at some point along the way. What a comfort and support it must have been over the years.
The same possibility exists for FJB. Ultimately that’s the solution for the Ds as well.
Being a nothing is a relative term. Biden is a complete nothing for leaving a legacy of achievements to our quality of life, but that is not why he is there.
Biden's achievements are to steal our wealth through horrendous inflation and printing of money, erosion of all institutions that hold our society together including the family, schools/education, church, law enforcement, and traditional marriage.
Biden is the eraser on your No.2 pencil. He takes away and destroys. That's not nothing.
The voters who still want Biden are also the people standing in line for the next COVID booster shot.
Yes. When it comes to the Biden presidency it really should be stated “Nothing Good”, just a plethora of misery, and not even just for this country, but the entire world. It’s breathtaking really, when you stop to consider the wreckage he has wrought upon literally every corner of the world in just three years!
Absolutely the entire world is more broke and more dangerous than it has been in 80 years! I suppose you could call that an accomplishment if you were deranged and had murder / suicide as your motive.
Why and how there can possibly be people who don’t yet grasp that is either due to wilful blindness and/ or their being afflicted with same derangement.
I wouldn't give Biden quite so much credit for he is just a midget of a man taking orders from nefarious individuals whose goal is global dominance and control. This group has been at work for decades and was even mentioned by the Bushes way back we he mentioned the New World Order. I guess that idea morphed into today's World Economic Forum.
I’m not referring to him as such, because he is just a pawn, but to his administration and the powers behind the throne.
They’re also the people waiting for that entitlement check to arrive in the mail. And the felons waiting for their “get out of jail free card. And the trannies in what’s left of the military waiting for their tax payer funded mutilations. I could go on and on and on but y’all already know the rest of the list.
And to take our sovereignty through a wide open border.
It is amazing that the Ho VP is still around. But as pointed out in the article, who better would be VP?
Rodham? No, Soetoro would never allow this.
Big Mike? Too lazy and Soetoro might be jealous.
The democrats don’t have a bench. They don’t even have a stool, although stool is a polite term that could be used to describe their “talent”.
I hoid you in there!! Joe is the Big Man on Campus? BM, being the operative words.
I’m unconvinced. This is nothing but a litany of verifiable facts that logically prove your conclusion.
Conspirator!
Plus my feelings are hurt.
I am sooo glad I am brewing coffee and not drinking it.
“Winston Churchill 1940: “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat.”
Joe Biden today: “I have nothing to offer.”
President Nothing. “
I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. Probably a little of both is in order.
They took Nixon out over an amateur burglary, but mostly just wanted to take him out because he was popular and Republican and outside the permanent DC establishment. We have a place keeper dimwit President who has committed real crimes and lots of them. He continues to break the law every day on our borders. He’s owned by China, Obama, Iran, and is demented. Yet Republicans in Congress smooth their skirts and look the other way.
Anybody who believes Trump is guilty of anything other than maybe masochism and love of country is a moron. Most of us would have folded a long time ago. If the dumbasses and cretins persecuting Trump ever had anything we would have seen it after 8 years and how many millions of dollars of our money wasted? All they have is power and malice. They invent crimes that don’t exist in order to charge him. It’s theater of the absurd. Even Salvador Dali couldn’t paint this picture.
Trump 2024. DeSantis would be better than a Democrat, but he’s lost some stature with this ridiculous campaign. The rest of the Republicans running, no. Clown car. Vivek has sone interesting ideas. But he would get eaten alive in the Swamp. Nikki Haley is a Democrat.
There is a lot to be said about a man who keeps his mother's bible close. That is honorable, even if DJT is possibly a self made man. Lots of men lost the fortunes their millionaire dad's left them. Trump did not bury those "talents" in the ground. He increased them.
Nixon was taken out because he reduced U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War and brought about détente with the Soviet Union and China.
I remember when Nixon played God Bless America on stage during the Grand Ole Opry. Here's a clip of Roy Acuff showing him a yo-yo trick. https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=685427382090129
I voted nobody because
1. Ron!, to me, is just deep state lite. As a Florida resident I voted for him twice, campaigned for him, gave money to his campaign and he stabbed us in the back by running for president 5 months after getting reelected. Some gratitude.
2. Nikki is deep state in a skirt. Lately she has been stepping in it biggly- the slavery and the Civil War had her stumped
3. Won’t vote for a skinny guy with a weird foreign name. Our past experience with this is still haunting us.
Nope, it’s Trump or we are done as a nation.
