You fail to understand that the US Constitution requires only the president to submit nominations for SCOTUS. Mid-terms don't change presidents. With respect, if you cannot answer questions about your posts, why comment on subjects that you know nothing about?

Obviously you must have a reason for posting. Seems you are only posting to just waste others` time.

Where have I deviated from the facts. Nothing is confirmed yet as this is only a preliminary US assessment. "The missile that crashed in Poland on Tuesday, killing two people, was from a Ukrainian air-defense system, according to two senior Western officials briefed on preliminary U.S. assessments, but Poland is continuing its own investigation of the explosion."

Elder bashing and impediment shaming are not a good look. Yet, when Trump talks on the World stage he is often the butt of jokes. I can truly say he is an embarrassment for the US.

Are you are suggesting that Bob Woodward, of Watergate fame and one of the most trusted journalists in US is lying? Perhaps you please supply a factual link to support your post. Or are you just trolling?

I would suggest that a lot of elderly non-working retirees would have moved their funds to low interest non-risk investments such as cash when COVID hit and have not moved them back to stocks until the market stopped bouncing. Especially when they have no way of replacement of funds.

Co-incidental, comes to mind. Most of the world's lives and investments would have been better between 2016 and 2019 before COVID, supply change issues and Putin's war. Nothing to do with Trump!

Whatever the reason it's still collateral damage from Putin's missile attack on Ukraine, Russia still needs to bear the responsibility for the blast.

Another poster duplicated my post. Proves great minds think alike

I suggest Putin didn't have a large enough war chest to fund his war when Trump was POTUS, and he was possibly waiting to see if his chosen candidate won in 2020. And if Trump had won, Trump would have supported his criminal mate against Ukraine and Nato. When Trump failed to win in 2020, Trump tried to order an unplanned and an immediate withdrawal from Afghanistan to leave mess for Biden. The withdrawal was always going be problematic but one almost a year before Biden's planned one it would have been a chaotic disaster.

The blockage from his torn-up incriminating presidential records may still be a problem!

Possibly Trump is self-projecting here. The US electorate tried to clean out "the festering rot and corruption of Washington, D.C" in 2020 but the smell from the burgers seems to still linger on.

The Federalist Society successfully got their members appointed to SCOTUS, what else were they trying to achieve?

That biased ruling by SCOTUS in 2010 was a blow to Democracy by favoring big business to be able to make unlimited donations to the PAC's of the Republicans for favorable policies.

Trump proposed to make an announcement about his intentions for 2022 tomorrow. I suggest that if he does run, this would be mainly because he thinks that this would help him escape from any criminality for his crimes. Also, for revenge for his hurt pride from the Republicans and Murdoch, who think that after his recent losses his involvement may be toxic in 2022. The GOP hardly gained anything in the mid-terms where traditionally the opposition always does. The loss for support from savvy Murdoch would have been when he saw Trump as a possible loss for his revenue stream. His media has openly called Trump Humpy Dumpty and a loser which evidently would be one of Trump's greatest insults. I think some Republicans may even actively assist the DOJ by "spilling the beans" on him. All in all, Trump must be in the worst well deserved predicament of his life, Karma can be a bitch. “I do think Trump believes he can avoid prosecution by running for president and causing delays. That’s another Trump strategy: Delay and run out the clock. But many Republicans simply have a selfish and practical interest in seeing Trump prosecuted and convicted—for anything, really. They want him out of their way either for their ambition or because he is clearly dragging the party down with bad candidates,” said Eric Owens, a retired lawyer who previously wrote for the conservative website The Daily Caller.

I agree with everything that your say except for the "moron" part which I think is too harsh. A lot of his supporters were not college educated. The middle-class in their view had more support from the Govt. Hence the GOP's attack on Biden's college loan forgiveness program to garner their votes. They had poor social services and poor health support, which I may suggest is one of the worst in the world even though Obama tried hard to change that. Trump promised he would rock the boat for them. It's paradoxical that they still supported him when he did little to improve their lot and mainly enriched himself and the big corporations with massive tax cuts. He even failed to produce a health plan which he had always promised.

How could watching this not bring a tear to the eye? I wonder if Fox are showing similar for their GOP audience especially those ones who wish to reduce or withdrawn US support for Ukraine?

Self-projecting here comes to mind.

I don't need to impress you! Nevertheless, I did serve in the Army Reserve for 5 years,

Past posts did not respond to my question, if there was any evidence to prove that Biden had a family friend like Trump, to certify his non-fitness for military duty. The original posts and my reply were subsequently deleted. So, you do agree with my comment that's how ALL people get jobs with Fed Govt", even though you worked for "Fed Gov for many years and had to be fit for duty" and had a regular compliant doctor?

I believe now that Trump's suggestion that "he’ll launch his 2024 presidential campaign on Nov. 15 in Florida" will not happen. I suggest that in the wake of his failures in the mid-term elections, his past allies now have nothing to fear, and will tell all. Even Pence is now unloading on Trump.

Is that how people get responsible jobs with the Federal Govt? And is that how Trump got out of doing the US citizen's responsibility of servicing military service when drafted?

New satellite images show a major Kherson bridge that was blown apart as Russian forces retreated from one of their biggest war wins. "An early-morning explosion rendered inoperable last major bridge out of Kherson, the Antonivsky Bridge. New satellite images show large gaps in the structure, which was being used by Russian forces fleeing from the strategically important city in eastern Ukraine". "A senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute, wrote on Twitter that the bridge "was destroyed by Russian forces as they retreated." Prior to the Russian retreat from Kherson, Ukrainian officials accused Russia of destroying various bridges, the suspected aim being to slow the Ukrainian advance".

I suggest that Russia is the one seeking a settlement at the moment and will eventually agree with Ukraine's demands. Putin's loss of Kherson and the forecast economic cost of the war will seal Russia and Putin's fate.
