Archy1221 Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 13 minutes ago, JJ Husker said: Or is your story now that Trump would not punish those who oppose him, that he would not place puppets in positions of power? That he learned nothing about where he failed on his first run at subverting an election? They were just rowdy tourists, amiright? 1) Trump always talks s#!t on people who oppose him and he is losing court case after court case to those he “tries to punish”. That’s the great thing about our system. Courts are the great equalizer to power! 2) Most positions of power are Senate confirmed positions requiring 60 votes. 3) Have I called the rioters just rowdy tourists? Ever? So no you aren’t right and can take that BS to others that have. 18 minutes ago, JJ Husker said: You sure do place a lot of trust in Trump’s good nature. Yeah yeah, obligatory “I won’t vote for him” bs. If you think he is not a danger and damaging to our democracy, I don’t know what else to tell ya. It wouldn’t do any good anyway, proven by your failures so far. I don’t place any trust in Trump’s good nature as you call it because it doesn’t matter one bit in the discussion of him being President beyond his elected term. Neither do our safeguards and system of government care. They don’t allow it regardless of Trumps good or not so good nature. Hell, look no further than the Court system smacking him down on case after case. But yeah, yeah. He will Dictate his way into doing whatever he wants to do regardless of legality. Nope, no one or nothing will stop him My failures??? I’m interested….. 22 minutes ago, JJ Husker said: You keep saying you’re going to vote for Desantis. Unfortunately for you he isn’t going to be on the ballot. I think we all fully understand what you’ll do at that point. I mean why should we take you at your word, you won’t even take Trump at his own words. I really don’t care if some anonymous message board dudes takes my word or not. No skin off my back. And fortunately for me, write in candidates are a thingy. 1 Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I probably said too many things too many times, so just reflect on this one question, Arch: Are you saying an unprecedented attempt at Presidential autocracy isn't something to worry about if it never reaches Worst Case Scenario? 4 Link to comment

I am thinking back to what you mean when I was asking about the Senate Bill. For me personally…..judging by what was leaked, I think the Senate Bill is pretty bad and nothing would be better than that. Just my opinion and it’s possible those leaks are not a fair representation of what’s in the bill. As far as Trump is concerned….I would 100% agree with you if you are trying to say Trump does not want an immigration bill to be passed during this campaign season. It could possibly give Joe momentum and Trump would hate that for sure. 1 Link to comment

Dr. Strangelove Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Between rapid wage growth, rapid GDP growth, the stock market reaching all time highs, lowest inflation in the G7, near record low unemployment rates, and the above tweet... You have to wonder just how much the DEMONcrats and Joe Biden are ruining this once great country. Link to comment
Guy Chamberlin Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 The Gaza conflict will likely spike domestic gas prices into election season. Are we ready for that to be the headline again? Link to comment
