    Katie Britt and Lara Trump will have the same effect on Donald Trump's support as the 1,328 other jaw-dropping deal breakers since 2015. 



    I agree when it comes to presidential voting. But I think Lara's involvement in the RNC will be harmful to the GOP in other elections. If we're an autocracy by 2029, maybe that won't matter. But I'll take something.

    I’d only do that if there was a good chance NATO would approve them for membership before Russia invades again.

    You are probably right.

     

    I know living into your 90's research shows that you are better being a little "overweight" instead of skinny but of course, not obese.  I am guessing Trump its in the obese category 



    I don't know why I felt the need to google it, but his last exam in office showed 243, which is slightly obese for his height. He claimed recently he's 215 now. He does look like he's lost weight, but I'm guessing he's more like 230 now, which is overweight.

    Edit: woops, I was looking at the overweight ranges not healthy. He's merely overweight now.

    I like Porter, but this was a misstep. She should have never posted this, and for sure she should have walked it back. This is yet another in a continuing string of verbal/written mistakes by Democrats. The "defund the police" syndrome they have.

    I think the real question is what person will come in and clean up the mess after Trump finally dies?  Is there a shadow office somewhere rebuilding the republican party after the leftover spirit of the confederate states moves on?

     

    There needs to be.

     

     

     

    I think the insanity might be here to stay but hopefully upon his death things fracture and the crazies won’t be able to figure out who to get behind.

    These people are impossibly stupid. But the problem with the American Left is virtue signaling has become more important than electoral outcomes. These people don't think for a nanosecond about the Trump alternative to the issues in Palestine. I hope Trump institutes the most pro-Israeli policies imaginable if nothing else but to show how profoundly idiotic these leftist voters are. 



    I think this way also. But it's not worth putting him in charge to find out. It's not like anyone who doesn't vote or votes for Trump would ever own up to it later or feel bad about it.

  7. @Dr. Strangelove capping late fees at $8 is stupid AF, as is calling them "junk" fees. There is such a thing as junk fees, but this isn't one of them. People seem to think their credit limit is their money, but it's the bank's money. If they are late on paying the bank back, it's not a junk or hidden fee the bank asks for, and the average of $32 is not much. The bank has to have a way to pay for losses. If this goes in, it will be good customers who pay for it by either not getting approved or by having higher APR.

    Your sarcasm was confusing here, because the article was just stating the information, without a slant to it.

    This is the type of government overreach that stifles business and is a flat out slippery slope to the type of Anarcho-Communist-Fascist CRT laced Socialism that leftists love.

     

    Between this and offering free money to feed children in poverty, Dems have lost me. #Trump2024 #2020WasStolen



    Which part or your post is sarcasm?

    All 9 judges agreed.....this was a no-brainer.

     

    "The ruling makes it clear that Congress, not states, has to set rules on how the 14th Amendment provision can be enforced against federal office-seekers. As such, the decision applies to all states, not just Colorado. States retain the power to bar people running for state office from appearing on the ballot under Section 3.



    Makes sense. I understand the sense of urgency but you can't just say someone's bad and then they get kicked off a ballot. Imagine the chaos that would ensue.

    At what point does he have to be ruled out due to the extreme number of high profile high stakes law suits he is involved in? How could he possibly serve as president and give it the time and attention necessary to perform the job while he is giving depositions and defending his fraud and SA nearly every day. 

     

    At what point does the extreme amount of debt he's incurred due to losing said lawsuits create a situation in which he cannot possibly serve without it being a conflict of interest, an outright disregard of the emoluments clause, and the risk of selling the office of the presidency to the highest bidder? 

     

    And to your point Archy, yes it was a unanimous court decision. Again, the left wing of the court stayed true to its principles, while the right wing did an about face destroying their own precedent they set in Bush v. Gore, in which the conservative majority ruled that the Federal Govt. had no power to tell states what to do in regard to elections, federal or other. 



    I don't understand the first 2 paragraphs, but agree on the 3rd. The conservative justices for the most part just do what helps Republicans in the fleeting moment and aren't paying attention to the logic of the law or whether they're flipping precedent on its head.
