  1. Feel free to challenge the point I made in the post you just responded to.
  2. That’s the thing about opinions, they are often speculative which is not quite the same thing as contradictory to observable reality. By example Wasinger offers up this: “For years, their [the alleged elites] authority went unchallenged. Now, Trump’s refusal to play by their rules has prompted a furious reaction. Rather than face the real issue—the exposure of their own overreach—they accuse him of authoritarianism and claim he poses a threat to democratic norms. The irony, as many have noted, is almost too much to bear.” I’m almost certain Wasinger has read the Constitution and therefore don’t accept his feigned ignorance of the duty of the Legislative and Judicial branches of Government to hold the Executive in check, let alone the Constitutionally protected rights of citizens and the media protest the actions of a President who, by rulings of the SCOTUS is overreaching his authority under the Constitution. This from a right biased SCOTUS in which three justices are Trump’s own appointees. I do agree with Wasinger on one point, ‘The irony is almost to much to bear’.
  3. I have acknowledged it, it’s an opinion piece written by a self styled ‘arch right winger’ and failed GOP candidate for office.
  4. I think it’s more likely the type of puff piece that says ‘I hope to get another chance to run for office’. Former failed GOP candidate sucks up to Trump for another chance.
  5. Smart move. Perhaps the UK has learned something from its own loss of global supremacy. The American Century is in its death throes, the UK is right to do business with it’s undeniable successor.
  6. The full Joe Rogan show ‘debate’ from which the clip above is taken is worth watching. Dave Smith opens the door for Murray to humiliate himself and Murray steps right in. Murray’s ‘Have you been to the crossing point? …When were you last there at all?.. You’ve never been?!’ was one for the ages. Murray simultaneously demonstrating the perfect application of the received British accent as a tool of condescension when addressing Americans who it doesn’t impress, while pummeling his own longstanding arguments against personal experience trumping any other argument. It’s Murray’s intellectual dishonesty at its most pure.
  7. There seems to be an awful lot of people in this ‘elite’ the author of the OP opinion piece refers to: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/19/anti-trump-rallies-protests
  8. I can name the Billionaire Tech-Bros Trump invited to stand behind him at his inauguration. Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos and Pichai. Lets see you demonstrate your ‘acumen’, give us some names.
  9. Of, it’s those billionaire tech Bros Trump invited to stand behind him at his inauguration?!
  10. It’s an opinion piece, the author is self confessed ‘Arch Rightwinger’ Rob Wasinger and The Hill prefaced the opinion piece with this: “THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY CONTRIBUTORS ARE THEIR OWN AND NOT THE VIEW OF THE HILL”
  11. If you have any information on who stuck these Swastikas on the GOP Offices send it to the NYPD, I’m sure they’ll be pleased to receive any real evidence you have.
  12. Having seen which way the wind is blowing you suddenly ‘aren't MAGA’. Unfortunately for you, your posting history says otherwise.
  13. “And there is nothing funny about being on the factual side of issues. You might want to try it one day?” You should give it a try yourself.
  14. Maybe things aren’t what you are lead to believe.
  15. I can’t find it on The Hill either. I looked out of curiosity as to the author of this opinion piece is.
  16. 147 member States of the UN recognize the State of Palestine.
  17. Moreover, not all of that 7% are old enough to vote, or might not have a vote, others might not vote, might vote for any of the candidates and might not be observant Muslims, let alone inclined to oblige anyone ‘telling’ them how to vote. Muslims, like any other groups of people professing any other faith are not a monolith.
  18. I think I’m correct in saying that the vast majority of Muslims on the UK were born in the UK, fully British citizens by birth, and upon reaching the age of 18 acquiring their citizen’s rights to vote. So what’s this ‘Muslim infiltration’ nonsense you refer to?
  19. I wonder at which point would you start throwing conniptions if we were to repeat that statement multiple times, while at each time changing ‘Islam’ for each of the many other religions present in the UK?
  20. You might be engaging in a bit of your hyperbole Jonny. These are local elections.
  21. So the war not ended in 24hrs and no sign of any ‘Devastating Consequences’.
  22. There are very few factual claims in the article, it is almost entirely repeating secondhand opinions. I have outlined two examples of claims in the article that are simply statements with zero backing them up. Feel free to challenge the point I made with respect to either of them.
  23. Of course you can, but don’t claim opinions are facts or that correlation is causation. You yourself stated ‘the article implies’, forgive me for pointing out it does so without providing evidence to backup what it implies.
