  1. Well, no wonder they don't want to answer any questions... no one will believe them. They want to blame their failure on "Local Law Enforcement"... yeah right... you're all fired!
  2. And they won't answer any questions. Secret Service just had a Presser to cover the convention and refused to answer any questions about yesterday. The belief from too many people, it looks like they left a gigantic hole open for the guy, and then killed him after he took his shots. We saw this movie before with Lee Harvey Oswald.
  3. NATO is a relic from a different time, created for a reason that no longer exists. It's high time to reevaluate, reimagine, and renew defense treaties. The United States carries too much responsibility for having so few friends. We should also kick the UN out of New York City for exactly the same reason. Nothing worse than a building full of diplomats that are only there to suck the life out of their host.
  4. If you wanted to vote against Trump in the primary, you would register Republican and vote Nikki Haley. If you want to get in a Trump rally, you have to be a registered Republican. Liz Cheney is a registered Republican. Bernie Sanders is a registered Independant. Registered Republicans can vote for Joe Biden if they want to. The label means nothing. He was a 20 year old kid that believed the lies and wanted to be the hero that killed Donald Trump. Well, now he's dead and Trump is the hero. It's being said that God saved him. I believe he's the luckiest man to ever live. If this shooter succeeded, we would be having a very different day today. I'm very happy he failed. I'm very unhappy that innocent American patriots became victims. Everyone knows why it happened, and there is no excuse for it. July 13th will now be a date of history. I was watching the rally live, when I heard those shots, saw Trump grab at his ear and fall to the floor... I thought he was dead.
  5. There seems to be some confusion coming from officials in PA... they don't know the shooter's motive. I'm pretty sure he somehow got it in his head that Trump is a dangerous Nazi and a threat to our democracy. It appears that Democrats feel they have run out of options. What I can't figure out is how this dude was allowed to climb up on a building, with a rifle, a mere 130 yards from Trump. I am told that the only thing that saved his life was he turned his head to point up at the video screen. The RNC convention begins Monday. This will be one for the history books.
  6. Trump has just been shot at a rally in PA. From what I can tell so far, they grazed the right side of his head. I believe he'll survive... he was walking and pumping his fist. At the very least DJ Trump will be President again now... but this is the thing that starts wars. Democrats will be losing from now on... for the foreseeable future. I will be with my crying wife for a while.
  7. From my research... you are correct. There is no mechanism for the nomination to pass to anyone... if Biden drops out. It went from private nudging for him to fold to private demanding that he drop out of the race. Then it was public nudging... and now it's public demanding... and it's getting really loud. They are destroying their own President, and I really have no clue how this will play out. George Clooney writes a letter demanding he drop out because he can't beat Trump. The last time an actor took out a President... it was John Wilkes Booth.
  8. It was an American comedian, Jon Stewart... he was making a point about how we could easily hold a new primary to switch out Biden within 4 months by comparing it to France who did an entire election in 2 months "and there was even time to have an affair with Denmark". I could only think that is what he was talking about... I could be totally out in left field on this, that's why I asked
  9. I heard something about Denmark messing with the French election... any truth to that? If it is... no wonder they're angry.
  10. Thank you for educating me a bit on European politics, but having never lived it, I fear I will never understand it. I wouldn't ever spend enough time on it to understand it, because the knowledge would never benefit me. I will not ever be a US Diplomat... and that is a bonus for both our nations. From my limited understanding, the UK voted out the Tories because they deserved to be voted out, and the Right in France didn't have the juice to seal the deal. None the less, I hope the best for all of you.
  11. Joe Biden will not drop out... he must remain President to commute the sentence of his son which comes down in September.
  12. Democrats are in absolute panic, and they can't even be honest about why. It's not Joe Biden. Joe Biden has always been a liar, a plagiarist, an appropriator, a purloiner, monumentally stupid, corrupt, an all-around dirty politician, and extremely gaff prone. This is nothing new, and Democrats knew exactly what he was before they systematically disabled the strongest economy in history with a fake pandemic, business and school closures, and ridiculous mandates. ...and after all that, we all got Covid anyway, and we survived it. Democrats are not in a panic because of Joe Biden... they are in a panic because of Donald Trump. They were absolutely certain that after 94 indictments created out of thin air, public trials with stacked prosecutions, and verdicts handed down by political activist judges... that the Republican Party and all Republicans would finally turn on Trump, and he would be the one dropping out. Well, it didn't work. Now they want to turn on Joe Biden because he can't win. Everyone can now see how they always rig everything. Bless their hearts.
  13. England just turned the King's Island over to the Socialists, and France grew a pair... this will be fun.
  14. I have not researched this at all. If it involves "draining the swamp", then I agree with it, but I don't follow unelected bureaucrats. I'm a creature of consensus, and I don't agree with implementing anything that does not receive a strong majority of support. Voting for a candidate doesn't mean you're in favor of every thought in their head, it just means they are the one you feel most comfortable with leading the Republic into the future... my choice will always be to vote for the biggest badass. My obligation is to leave my children a better country than I was born into, and because of idiot politicians, alphabet agencies, and unrestricted and rampant mental illness... it's very hard for me to complete my obligation.
  15. I got so engrossed with talking about Biden I totally forgot about the Trump part. I don't believe there is any chance of a Nikki Haley choice. She ran bitterly against him, and Donald learned a lot as President. He won't make the same mistake he did the first time. He will not bring anyone in that is not an America First loyalist. He will fire everyone that will cause him grief, and for those he can't fire, he will appoint people who will fire them. These people are lying with this whole scare tactic about Trump and his "retribution" bullshit... they are fearing for their own job. Trump will really drain the swamp this time. I believe Trump will pick Doug Burgum. He was a solid Governor of the sparsely populated state of North Dakota, but the big thing is he is a successful businessman, and he is extremely wealthy. I would really like for Trump to surprise us all and choose the magnificent Governor of Virginia, the honorable Glenn Youngkin. He would be an amazing choice, and a really good Vice-President, but I don't know... I always thought he would choose Tim Scott, but I'm not so sure now.
  16. I didn't think anyone here wanted to talk politics anymore, at least not seriously... but I'm still here. California was a shithole before Gavin, but it got a lot worse with him. I know a little about it, I was born there, and spent 38 years trying to save it. Now there are only two kinds of people there... the super-rich, and the miserable poor. This is not the biggest problem for him. If Joe Biden drops out, which I do not believe he will, it will be Kamala Harris. There is around 250 million dollars in their campaign war chest, and she is the only one that can use it. She will not drop out, and if they try to step over her... it will get really ugly. They had a primary, and they wouldn't allow anyone to run against Joe. Joe got all the votes... just like they wanted. Now they want a do-over? They have been running on "protecting democracy", and now they want to kick their elected candidate to the curb and appoint a replacement that no one voted for... I don't think this will happen. Talking about it is easy, actually doing it... no. Election day is 4 months away. Democrats cannot do anything before their convention, and that is the middle of August. Yes, they chose to have it that late as well. Early voting begins in October... another thing Democrats pushed for. There is no time to even attempt to appoint an illegitimate candidate to run against Donald Trump. It's Joe Biden or Kamala Harris... anyone else will be challenged in court, and that will really tie things up. Joe Biden has been in Washington since I was a child... he will not give up. There is another issue with it... if Joe drops his campaign because he does not have the mental ability to be elected President, that will mean he does not have the mental ability to be President. The remainder of his current term would be immediately challenged. Dropping out and appointing a replacement candidate because you're afraid you can't win the election... well that won't happen. Joe Biden has a cabinet, and they can decide that Joe needs to go because he is brain-dead. They invoke the 25th Amendment of the Constitution and remove him from office. That gets rid of Joe, but it also makes Kamala Harris the President. Then she would be running as an incumbent. Whichever way they look... Democrats are stuck with their choices. Like I have always said... Democrats just never think things through.
  17. That is an interesting analysis. I would not call Iran sending over mass missiles and drones at Israel, a "full-scale attack"... nor do I trust Ukraine at all with anything... especially billions of American tax dollars. What should be done immediately is the USA must protect the World Reserve Currency status that we have enjoyed for so long. That grants us the ability to carry 30 trillion plus dollars of debt that our politicians have not the courage to even slow down the increase. This would involve an act of Congress, or even a Constitutional Amendment, to abolish, or at the very least severely curtail, the trade with, and dependency on, all countries that advocate Socialist, Globalist, or Communist government of any kind. States that do not wish to ratify the US Constitution should be summarily expelled from the USA. I believe we are much closer to Civil War than we are to World War III.
  18. Elon Musk is ineligible to ever become President of the USA because he is not a natural born citizen. He paid far too much for Twitter... but he proves every single day that it's not about the money. He wants to save the USA. This is what is happening. It's being done on purpose, but I do believe that most people are too stupid to realize how bad it is. This is where the real bloodbath begins. If it is not stopped... we are doomed. Elon Musk on X: "This is actually happening! https://t.co/qeNBu3S1mF" / X (twitter.com) https://redstate.com/bobhoge/2024/03/16/elon-musk-calls-it-like-he-sees-it-there-will-be-either-a-red-wave-in-november-or-america-is-doomed-n2171491
  19. Lara Trump has been elected co-chair of the RNC. Over 60 skulls were fired today. Things will be changing... “Unfortunately, we don’t have one day of voting, we don’t have paper ballots, we don’t have voter ID everywhere. So, we have to play the hand that we’re dealt,” “We need to be doing legal ballot harvesting — something that has never been done by the RNC, but I can promise you will be a huge part of what we’re planning to do,” Lara Trump promises legal ballot harvesting to be part of new RNC strategy - Washington Examiner If cheating is the new way of winning elections, I guess the new goal is being the best at cheating. Congratulations Democrats, you have succeeded in destroying fair elections. This will escalate into utter chaos.
  20. Wrong again... it's all genetics... if it's in the DNA, the hair is the first to go. But this is gonna be one hell of an insane election... We have Donald Trump... he has multiple charges against him... but he's not senile. And we have Joe Biden... no charges against him... but it's because he's senile. My money is on Biden not showing up for the debates.
  21. My entire adult life... from Ronald Reagan, all through the Tea Party, and here today with Making America Great Again... I have been labeled by the left with everything they got. I wear it like armor, and it's awesome to know my words can rattle such reaction out of Belgium.
  22. If they can find a way to cheat again... maybe... but there's no fake pandemic to hide the crime this time.
  23. Joe Biden had a very bad day yesterday. The good news for him is he will not be charged for his illegal possession and incompetent storage of mass amounts of classified documents. The bad news for him is the reason why they are not charging him. They won't charge him because he has dementia and is incapable of standing trial. I think he would have rather been charged. If Joe is too demented to stand trial... how can he possibly remain as President? This has Democrats in a real dilemma. If Joe wants to run, there is no way to stop him... he is the incumbent. They have to convince him not to run and complete his term. The only other way is for them to call up the 25th Amendment and take him out of office. Fine and dandy, but this makes Kamala Harris President... and she will then insist on running as the incumbent. On the other hand... Donald Trump had an absolute splendid day!
  24. Tomorrow night... Nevada Republican Caucus. We will see the power of the Trump Train in Nevada. Muahaha!
  25. A couple of days ago my wife talked me into going to see a new movie called "Argyle". I have long believed that movies made these days are total crap, and they no longer make movies for me. How bad could it possibly be? I mean really... it's Henry Cavill, right? Argyle has proven to me... beyond the shadow of any doubt... that Hollywood has reached the summit of being really good at making stupid movies. Case in point... while I watched "Barbie" on HBO, I felt my face go numb, and my IQ points dying.
