I have actually stayed in Trump hotels, and I was never asked by anyone if I worked for a foreign government. According to your desired requirement, no one in US leadership is able to do business without invasive screening and denial of service... or is it just Donald Trump you want this restriction on? It must be okay to sell your vote, collect checks from bogus board seats, accept gold bars from drug lords, manipulate stocks, sell garbage passed off as art, incite war, cause global panic and lie about it, rig elections, weaken the military, humiliate the police, falsely accuse political opponents of crime, destroy the economy, cripple energy, encourage open theft and vandalism, ignore immigration laws... I could go on and on. It's absolute insanity... and prime directives of Socialists in order to destroy the most successful Capitalist nation ever. I promise you... we will stop you. You heard that all the way in Belgium?

This is my biggest fear. Too many just don't care, and I think you're right... it's way too late. My only hope is that we can stop the bleeding and keep things livable for as long as possible. The people here don't understand how bad it will be when their cash is suddenly worth nothing. I'm thinking about selling my houses and moving to a rural city... my houses are worth quite a lot right now. The problem is... I don't believe people can afford the mortgage payments.

Trump will only need 4 years to fix things. He now knows he needs to clean house first. He knows who to fire immediately, and he knows who to hire immediately to fire everyone else down the food chain. New blood and a focused agenda. Who is next? I'm still a Ron DeSantis fan. He should have stayed out as soon as he knew Trump would run. Running against Trump has hurt him... but not nearly as bad as it hurt Nikki Haley. She's pretty much toast now. Can you say "Jeb Bush"? Yeah... it's that bad. Something happened today that I see as a possible VP choice. Trump took the stage in New Hampshire and brought up Vivek Ramaswamy... and he killed it for an amazing Trump endorsement. Makes me think this has been planned. We shall see. Republicans have a very deep bench, but it's hard to get them all behind one candidate. Democrats are too easy... it's like herding sheep.

Wow... Trump just crushed it in Iowa tonight. They called it 30 minutes after their caucus shut down. Stick a fork in this nomination... it's DONE. Maybe they should try to turn him into a criminal? Several dozen indictments ought to do the trick. Well, that's not working out so well. Hey, maybe they can call him an "Insurrectionist", pull a butt-spider out of their butt with a dose of Civil War era lingo. That should be enough to disqualify Trump from the ballots... right? Uh... nope... that's not working either. Maybe they can get China to release another "It's gonna kill us all" virus. You know... lock downs, mask mandates, and mail-in ballots? That way Joe can hide in his basement, and they can cheat again! No... they won't fall for that again. I think heads are starting to explode, and the lie machine is gonna go full tilt. Buckle up people, it's gonna get rough.

Sounds like a whole lot of gossip and hooey... and the name of the criminal was George Floyd.

A quote off a French statue does not create constitutional amendments... why do libs always point at that and call it law?

It's not the business of the US Federal Government to socially engineer the USA. If we wanted them to do it, we would ratify an amendment to the US Constitution to explicitly grant them the power. In my opinion, it would be far more efficient for every bill taken up by Congress to be required to pass through the Supreme Court first, before it ever is signed by a President to become law. It most certainly would avoid a whole lot of grief.

Bonus! You live in Belgium. The beauty of "democracy" is you get to choose your leaders, and we get to choose ours. Real issues that matter... Debt, Spending, Taxes, Inflation, Borders, Crime, Military. Fake issues that don't matter... Climate, Race, Gender, Abortions, Equity. I feel very good about his deep devotion to his Christian faith. I don't have to be concerned about him stealing, killing, or cheating on his wife.

Looking past the stunning and absolutely senseless violence that grips the planet right now... something really good happened today. Pretty much everybody you can think of thought Matt Gaetz was an idiot for having Kevin McCarthy canned as Speaker. I myself, thought it was risky, but Matt really had no choice but to follow through with his own promise, so I very much supported his determination. I didn't like John Boehner... I didn't like Paul Ryan... and I never liked Kevin McCarthy... I hate everything about California, but I was also very aware of the promises he made to Gaetz and his team, and McCarthy willfully broke those promises believing that Gaetz would never act against him, and if he did, Democrats would save him. McCarthy was wrong about Gaetz... and woefully wrong about Democrats. Republicans elected a young Ronald Reagan to serve as Speaker of the House today... his name is Mike Johnson, and he is from the great state of Louisiana. I am extremely happy with this choice. The House will now take on the huge problems that are killing the USA.

Finally, my old friend... we actually agree on something. Iran wanted to prevent Saudi Arabia from recognizing Israel as a legitimate nation. After this is over, we will see if Iran was successful.

I think they went too far this time. They're not going to allow anyone in to "help". They're not going to listen to anyone. I believe Hamas will be extinct within a week. When it's over, we will see how the Arab nations feel about it. Israel has been preparing for this event for 50 years. None the less, we should expect gas prices to continue going higher since we again depend on the global market.

Iran attacked Israel today. Joe Biden gave them the money to do it. The Biden State Department sent Israel a since deleted message to not retaliate. Seriously? One more shameful world incident that never would have happened if Trump was President. Excuse me? That's the definition of Libertarian.

Setting the record straight... I am a Pro-Choice Republican. I believe we should agree to a Constitutional Amendment that determines the time exactly when a life is entitled to protection under the U.S. Constitution, and leave the enforcement to the states. End of problem. I own many guns. I do not attend church. The Confederate flag is part of American History, just like all the rest of them.

If I am Libertarian, and you believe Libertarians are the worst, then you must be the opposite of Libertarian. Maybe not a "National Socialist", but just plain "Socialist" is a better way to say it. You obviously have a problem with individual liberty. My advice would be to stay out of other people's lives and concentrate on creating your own contentment instead of expecting everyone else to do it for you.

The idiot Globalist known as Joe Biden, and the moronic Communist known as Alejandro Mayorkas, are waiving and ignoring over two dozen Federal laws to immediately build 20 miles of border wall in Texas... the same laws that were used to prevent Donald Trump from building the wall on the southern border. Joe Biden ran on shutting down the Trump wall, and "not building a single foot of border wall" back in 2020. I guess these people never think things through, but it's way too late. Trump was right again.

I am against forcing anyone to be injected with anything... that would make me Libertarian. Now if you refuse to acknowledge the difference between a man and a woman... well that's anti-science. I will welcome the momentary shade from bright light.

Every Republican, including myself, will welcome RFK onto the ballot with open arms. No intention to vote for him, but every intention to see the Kennedy name snatch 20% of the Democrat vote from whatever brainless bag of guts the DNC can sucker into running for them. It's growing more and more likely that it will not be Joe Biden. Kennedy must have some information that the DNC will not support his nomination if Biden drops out, and they will attempt to parachute the ex-husband of the wife of Donald Trump Jr... Gavin Newsom. Kimberly Guilfoyle knows everything there is to know about Gavin Newsom... Trump won't be able to stop himself. Hysterical. Now RFK will run just to make sure they don't win. Joe Manchin is also threatening to run as "No Labels Party" to take even more from them. It's interesting to watch, but I still see bad times ahead no matter who wins. The fate of the Roman Empire... history repeats.
