  1. Already did. Peer reviewed and all. My speaking tour begins next month. I'll send you a ticket!
  2. Paranoid much? Nobody that I know is taking about Ukraine being absorbed into Russia. But to end the war, they might have to give up some territory. Otherwise the game isn't worth the cost. Ukraine is not worth one drop of NATO blood. And keeping them fighting and dying, just to bleed the Russian military, when there is no practical end sccenario is cruel.
  3. You think? I take it you didn't see him with his family, his grandchildren, playing the happy grandpa... Amazing that you are such a mind reader that you know how another man feels. The Syndrome is strong in you, my friend.
  4. Exactly. Just like.......where? Not UK, Australia, NZ, Canada, Japan, Germany... what country are you talking about?
  5. Thanks for proving my point.
  6. Women are realizing too late that they have been lied to by modern feminizm. Delaying marriage to have a 'fulfilling' life and career is not the ticket to happiness. Neither is having a string of meaningless relationships and then waking up in their mid to late 30s suddenly bit by the marriage bug. Fact seems to be that men really don't care about a woman's career or earnings. They prefer their partners to be fit, feminine, friendly, and agreeable. Women don't get this. They try to 'girl boss' too much. It IS possible to balance career and home if done properly, but it requires sacrifice from both partners. Hence the growth of "passport bros" who travel abroad to seek partners who match their needs.
  7. ...which she won't if the RCP numbers hold until election day. But that is a long way off.
  8. Meeting world leaders is fine of course. But touring the munitions plant, which just happens to be in a swing state? The Pennsylvania governor joining Zelensky in signing their names on artillery shells? Come on. The US and Russia are not at war, nor are the US and Ukraine allies in any legal sense. Why are American politicians signing munitions to be fired at another country?
  9. Wow, you are bringing back memories..... The Robster, Steak Queen Restaurant in Etobicoke, ahh the good old days. His brother is rather more staid and serious.
  10. According to the RCP average, Harris is up 2% nationally. In the swing states, Harris is up in 4 and TRump in 3, but the biggest margin is only 2%, in Michigan (for Harris). This point in 2020, Biden was 6% in the lead.
  11. Sure. American money plus Ukranian blood equals big profit for the MIC and their supporters. The US is already in serious deficit territory- $1.7 trillion in 2023. The money wasted on Ukraine would go a ways to solving that dilemma. Otherwise, you are just spending your grandchildrens' money to appease today's greedy politicians.
  12. Well, there are some who would call this election interference by a foreign country. It is highly inappropriate for the leader of Ukraine to play politics during a presidential election.
  13. Suprised ol Joe didn't drown from the collective tongue bath. Surprised at the age jokes too, since Joy is actually older than Biden.
  14. How interesting. In a thread dedicated to Joe Biden, literally EVERY comment has been directed at Trump. Either Biden is that inconsequential, or Trump is that fascinating.
  15. Neil would be good, but I am not sure if he is nimble on his feet enough to moderate a debate. Maybe Peter Doocie, the White House correspondent? For an outsider.....Glenn Greenwald as a wild card choice. Or Dave Smith the comedian/podcaster. As for Megyn, according to her she has voted D 4 times and R 4 times in presidential elections, and is a registered Independent. Also has a less than uber-friendly history with the Bad Orange Man. But very sharp, she did a great interview a couple weeks ago on the All In Podcast weekend event from Los Angeles.
  16. If it is accurate, it is definitely disappointing. Baier would be a good moderator IMHO, perhaps bring in someone independent like Megyn Kelly to sit in the second seat. I am surprised that the Harris camp isn't crowing this from the rooftops if the story is true.
  17. Respectfully disagree. After Trump won in 2016, more than 70 Democratic congress members refused to attend the inauguration. Luminaries like the late John Lewis referred to Trump's win as "illegitimate". And even Hillary herself- she conceded gracefully enough, but by 2019 was calling Trump an "illegitimate President". And even Jimmy Carter. As forthe rest, I think the US presidential system is quite rare. Many countries have both presidents AND prime ministers. Anyway, both sides know the rules and, if they are smart, will conduct their campaigns accordingly.
  18. Happened in Canada last election. The Conservative party won the popular vote, but the Liberal party won more seats in Parliament.Much the same reason as in the US- Liberal support is more evenly spread around the country whereas there are only pockets of staunch Conservatives. So, we got Justin Trudeau, Liberal Party, as Prime Minister. Fair enough, I am not a fan but he IS the PM.
  19. Lovely idea but it really goes against the grain of being a federal republic as the Founding Fathers envisioned. Plus there aren't that many countries that actually have a simple vote like that for leader. Most have a form of parliamentary or federal system. Do you know of any that are a simple majority rules?
  20. Just saw the Ruhle interview. I was actually surprised pleasantly. Ruhle asked good questions, and at times pressed back (very gently) on certain issues. But, as usual, there were no substantive answers or clear policy positions. Lots of the usual bromides about rich people paying "their fair share" and the like. The salad spinner in action.
  21. Because he already did one on CNN. And on ABC. So the real question is, why won't Kamala do a debate on Fox News, or moderated by the Wall Street Journal? The Democrats had 2 debates on friendly ground. Time for them to return the favour.
  22. Perhaps because they see his four years as NOT failed? Low inflation, low interest rates, low unemployment, no new wars to worry about, peace treaties in the Middle East. And they compare to the Biden/Harris years and see none of the above. Now, you can argue about the causes and who gets the credit, but those are the basic facts that sway many voters. Not 'beyond the realm of reason' by any means.
  23. Hey, shut up with all that "information". It's getting in the way of some good healthy Jew hating /s Anyway, if Hezbollah wants peace, it is pretty simple to achieve. Stop firing rockets into Israel. Instant peace.
  24. While the results are good for Trump (and therefore for the USA), I would still take them with a grain of salt. It is in the interest of all media, both online and legacy, to promote the idea that the election is super close and will go down to the wire. Happens every 4 years. I am sure the media was saying the same in 1984, when Reagan destroyed Mondale. Reagan came within 5000 votes of winning EVERY state. It's all about the Benjamins. Money is made in close contests.
  25. Yes. Women already have a number of choices: abstinence, birth control, motherhood, adoption. They have full control of the decision to be sexually active. That is why virtually every abortion restriction comes with the caveats that rape and incest are exceptions. Outside of that, personal responsibility is the goal.
