  1. The exceptions do not disprove the general rule. Dana Loesch and Megyn Kelly vs. Rachel Maddow and Joy Behar. Besides, tell me honestly that you would refuse a 'hand shandy' from Lauren Bobert in a dark theatre. Go on, I dare you!
  2. Hey, if in your world it is OK to be a married man and screw your dead brother's widow, there isn't much I can say.
  3. Those two names and you run out of sympthetic voices for the Bad Orange Man. Now what would ABC. NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, The NY Times and LA Times, WaPo, NPR and PBS, all do, I wonder...
  4. Small flaw in that logic is that Ukraine will run out of the most important resource- men, long before Russia. And all the gear from NATO won't make up for it. Especially if Ukraine needs to go on offence to win back territory. The Russians are tenacious on defence, just ask Hitler.
  5. I think your veiled Nazi references probably don't apply. So, how do you see an outcome that both avoids WW3 AND kicks Russia out of all occupied Ukranian territory, including the Crimea? This is a question all the Zelensky cheerleaders never seem to have a rational answer for.
  6. I can't help but wonder if we reversed the polarity of the situation, what would be the reaction in the media and here; Imagine, Eric Trump is a crack head with an illegal gun, banging his brother's widow, spends tens of thousands of dollars on possibly illegal foreign hookers while on crack binges, fathers an illegitimate child with a stripper, who the Trumps refuse to acknowledge. Would the media narrative center around, "well, addiction has touched EVERY American family... the Trumps are showing their love for their son..." Something tells me the coverage would be a touch different.
  7. Exactly. So the idea that the US is so unusual in that the popular vote is not used to decide the winner of the election is ridiculous.
  8. True, I am surprised that you admit seeing that direction in the Biden administration.That is why the safe bet is to vote for Trump.
  9. If you have no idea, then perhaps it is a good idea to STFU and learn a little before dropping an uninformed opinion.
  10. Actually, he IS broadening his base with black and hispanic people though. Look at the numbers, they are ghastly for the Democrats. And it's not a "matter of style" for Biden. It is designed to hide his obvious flaws. Look up "Operation Bubblewrap". It is the campaign by his staff to insulate Biden from the public and the press as much as possible. Keep Joe hidden, keep any spontaneous interactions to a minimum, even cover him as he shuffles from the WHite House to his helicopter before flying off yet again for a weekend retreat. The lengths the staff go to are amazing.
  11. The problem for the democrats is the albatross known as Kamala. If Biden had an even moderately popular and competent VP, he would have been long gone.
  12. Well, can you tell me what countries have direct election for president/prime minister? I don't think any G7 country does that.
  13. And at every rally Biden.......oh wait, Biden NEVER goes to rallies. Only small events with carefully controlled speeches and guests. Never mind.
  14. All right. So how do you stop Putin then. Not to mention push him back to the original border. That will take manpower that Ukraine does not have. Which means NATO joining in. Which means WW3. Or is there a flaw in the logic somewhere?
  15. So, World War 3 over Ukraine is OK with you?
  16. Possibly both. But also very pragmatic. Give him a 'win' and he will stop. Or are you in favor of WW3 to save Ukraine? Because that is the only other alternative that I can see. And Ukraine aint worth it.
  17. The rest of Europe is tied up with NATO and Putin isnt so dumb as to attack a NATO member. Plus there are some valid arguments to suggest that parts of Ukraine were once part of Russia. The same cant be said of Germany or France.
  18. Purely as an aside, why do lefty women always look like nasty harridans, with a face like a bulldog licking pi55 off a thornbush? No joy in these people at all.
  19. You're right, I do have an agenda. It is called 'peace'. Nothing about Trump, but about reality. Europe getting embroiled in a world war over something as insignificant as Crimea is the height of lunacy. Cut a deal and end it. The Russians aren't going to leave peacefully. History shows that the Russian military is especially tenacious in defense- last summer's failed counterattacks proved that. Cut a deal and move on.
  20. Crimea is gone. Russia will never surrender Sevastopol without a full scale war. Is that what you want? So, tell us then an acceptable outcome in Ukraine that doesn't require NATO soldiers fighting alongside the Ukranians. Or is a continent-wide war an acceptable price to keep a kleptocracy like Ukraine alive?
  21. At risk of wandering off topic, OF COURSE they should trade some land for peace. There really is no alternative. Well, no palatable alternative anyway. Other than NATO joining in with ground forces and risking a full scale war on the European continent. And sorry but a couple slices of Ukraine just aren't worth it. And yes Putin might start preparing for another incursion. But it would also give the moribund NATO members in Europe time to upgrade their militaries as well. They should have done a decade ago, but they have been coasting on Uncle Sugar's coat tails. If Europe can't raise itself from its torpor to defend itself, there is no reason for the US to spend blood and treasure to do so. Especially when Russia is a regional threat at best. The bigger problem is China, and the Ukraine conflict is distracting too many people from it.
  22. Trump can't surrender to Putin because the US and Russia are not at war. This is a common tactic of the left, to imply that there are only two possible positions on the Ukraine war- unquestioning and endless support of Ukraine, or being a pawn of Putin. The reality is far more nuanced. I would support anyone over the spectre of a Harris presidency. She projects weakness, insincerity, and insecurity. If and when Trump picks his VP candidate, the real race can begin.
  23. Not true. 2021 was the worst year, followed by 2020 and 2022. More deaths under Biden than under Trump.
  24. Given what is now coming to light about Covid- vaxxing, masks, social distancing, and so on, I don't think any world leader is exactly covered in glory. Looking back, the best thing to do would have been to isolate vulnerable people and then just carry on with life.
  25. Debatable and irrelevant. Nobody cares. What they DO care about are the numbers, wherever they came from. Not to mention that, even if that is true, the economy continued to boom under Trump until Covid fvcked the world. Low interest rates, low housing prices, etc. Where did the Dollar Menu at Taco Hell go? Why is gas not 1.79 a gallon any more? These are the things that move voters, not boring dissertations on fault and blame.
