Yep, everyone knows Biden got 81 million votes.....

Maybe we should have let Kasich or Romney or McCain's ghost run against the Nazis.....

Trump's mouth and actions consistently put him in situations where you have to contort yourself into justifying his actions. It's not his policies that get him in trouble, it's his mouth and subsequent actions that end up rendering him as a liability. Meanwhile as you defend him. It crowds out people who could be so much more effective because they actually think before they talk and do.


Give me a break. Trump has been Trump in the public eye for almost as long as I've been alive. He's written books, hosted reality shows and pageants...people know exactly who Trump is and once celebrated him for it.

Where Trump became a problem was in challenging global trade. He asked that the world globalist power barons play by different rules and stop sucking down monopolistic wealth at the expense of our nation's industry and sweatshop labor world wide. He asked that laws in place on the border actually be enforced. He demanded an end to our military's endless firing of ordinance into middle eastern deserts. And most importantly, he challenged the Chinese as an economic rival and enemy...which they are.

If you think the problem with Trump is his demeanor, you're a media-led patsy. It's always been about and will always be about the money.

There's MAGA, then there's RINO.

RINOs are biden's mainstream Republicans.

They are using neural linguistic programming to convince public minds that anything associated with MAGA/Trump and hence Convervatism, is a danger and a threat.

They are conditioning negative trigger mechanisms within the psyche of the public en masse.

It's wicked but it is effective.

I'm not talking about his policies or even how he treats the global trade gangsters. I'm talking internal politics, he gets outplayed on a regular basis and it is due to his mouth and his actions.

He would be the QB who would throw a pass to a frickin OT because he decided he was eligible and he was lined up that way.....but did not tell the fricking referee that he was actually playing the roll of TE. Yeah, it's a brilliant call and it could work and it did work except that he decided he did not have to follow the rules on informing because he's the all star QB.

You keep admitting you are a squeamish, Liberal bitch who is more concerned about decorum than results.

Of course not, he did a lot of great things for the country.


Folks, Kiwi is Example A of an idiot who thinks himself smart.

Kiwi thinks that up until Trump's Presidency, Washington was simply BRIMMING with virtuous, honest, decent people who spent their time and personal fortunes to make the country a better place....UNTIL....that MEAN OLE ORANGE MAN came along and spoiled EVERYTHING!

People like Kiwi don't care if Politicians rape the country to enrich themselves AS LONG as they hold their pinky aloft while doing so and as long as it's done behind closed doors!

Apparently, MAGA Republicans are goose stepping, hood wearing un American, Facists.

Apparently, I missed notice of these meetings even though I voted for Trump.

He's not a political player, but he may be the ONLY one on this country's side.

Washington DC makes a LOT of people rich, yet it produces nothing but what rolls off its printing press. Most of the people who enter politics do so at the funding of people who want a part of that printing press. They also do so at the funding of those who enjoy pennies on the dollar industry costs off the backs of impoverished and authoritarian nations. When a guy steps into the White House talking about tariffs, cutting military involvement (defense spending) and pushing real tax reform (MLB suite tickets are no longer tax deductible) then the knives tend to come out behind him. He chose his staff poorly, but really, he never had much choice but to pick from a pool who are or desire to get rich off the Washington DC machine.

None of that has to do with his mouth. We had a guy just stand up with guns at his back and call half the nation terrorists. Do you have a problem with HIS mouth? His democratic predecessor liked to insert himself into local police investigations and call law enforcement stupid, conservatives bitter clingers and did everything he could to stoke racial tensions with every speech. W. Bush lied about weapons of mass destruction repeatedly. Clinton lied about everything, comically debating semantics in a court of law over banging his intern in the Oval Office.

But Trump's "mouth and actions" are now a problem.

Ok.

There is no difference between Republicans MAGA and democrats. We all are America first. The liberal filth is the difference. They are the media mouth piece. Our government is the one trying to divide us.

Simple. On divisive issues (i.e.gender transition surgery for children, CRT, open borders, abortion, LGBT Agenda, states rights) the Mainstream Republicans are willing to reach a compromise, whereas the MAGA's refuse to negotiate away their core beliefs.

The so-called Mainstream Republicans (aka RINO) refuse to accept the reality that some issues are just not negotiable. On the other hand the MAGA's believe those contentious issues defy even the most basic of
long established realities and truth. Some things are just not negotiable.

The clash of our time. Absolute Truth versus Moral Relativism. Without blinking an eye, I say Moral Relativism is the poison that plagues our leadership and country (both parties).

What Joe Biden did last night with his speech was declare to the MAGAs - if you resist us, if you refuse to compromise (aka surrender), we will destroy you. Thus the F-15 comment and the U.S.Marines in the shadows.

Facts are stubborn things - John Adams

Right now inside the GOP there is a fight between the McConnell establishment faction and the MAGA faction.

McConnell wants weak and open borders. MAGA doesn't.

McConnell wants trade giveaways to China. MAGA doesn't.

McConnell wants endless wars. MAGA doesn't.

MAGA and establishment Republicans agree on abortion, tough on crime low taxes, 2A freedoms, school choice, judges, and easy regulations but are conflicted on borders, trade and war.

The establishment Republicans (which are just the DC uniparty) lobbyists' customers make trillions off of trade giveaways, open borders and war.

Trump it a threat to that. It's that simple.

yeah, amazing how over half the country just wants us to focus on making america great again, fixing the homeland first, bring jobs back, everyone employed, live a safe prosperous life under law and order and its a bad thing.

Did they think Ross Perot was a fascist?

Stupid take.

You have a bunch of Republicans that will vote for Trump if he is "the guy" but don't call themselves MAGA. Lot's of limited govt conservatives and social conservatives in that group.
