"Winning with her is visceral." What exactly is that supposed to mean? That it's not about the issues with her just about winning? And are you invoking genetics to explain this? This wasn't exactly an arbitrary decision. Do you remember the Biden/Trump debate? And if Nancy Pelosi and her billionaire friends are so powerful, why didn't she get her wish to have the Democratic convention be an open one? It was no secret that there were potentially better candidates than Harris. Maybe she didn't have quite enough of the her father's genes to pull that one off?

34 fraudulent payslips. 1 fraudulent payslip maybe could be explained by "oops!' 34 not so much.

According to your criterion, those moderate laws were overturned by pro-abortion fanatics. Who apparently constitute a majority of the citizenry of those states.

How's this for a bridge? Trump threatens lawyers, donors and election officials with prison for 'unscrupulous behavior' Trump and his allies filed dozens of unsuccessful cases after the 2020 election in an attempt to overturn the results. Former President Donald Trump, who makes frequent false claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen through rampant fraud, warned Saturday that he would try to imprison anyone who engages in "unscrupulous behavior" during this year's race. He issued the threat on Truth Social, his social media website, and repeated his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, accusing Democrats of "rampant Cheating and Skullduggery." “The 2024 Election, where Votes have just started being cast, will be under the closest professional scrutiny and, WHEN I WIN, those people that CHEATED will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the Law, which will include long term prison sentences so that this Depravity of Justice does not happen again," he wrote. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-warns-prison-sentences-people-cheated-2024-rcna170088

I guess that means that, to your way of thinking, in states like Kansas and Ohio, the majority of voters are pro-abortion fanatics.

And I noticed that you rather conveniently left out 2 paragraphs preceding what you quoted: Here they are: "From fall 1940 through spring 1941, Hitler's air force struck London and other English cities with terrifying night bombing raids. The bombing of London, the main target of German planes, cost the lives of 30,000 people. Driven from the continent, the British could only strike back by mounting their own bombing campaign against the Germans. At first, the Royal Air Force (RAF) attempted to bomb only specific German military and industrial targets in daytime raids. But the lack of fighter-plane support made these raids risky, and bombs often missed their precise targets because of poor bombsights." https://teachdemocracy.org/bill-of-rights-in-action/bria-15-3-a-firestorms-the-bombing-of-civilians-in-world-war-ii

I think you're going to regret posting that link Here's a tidbit you apparently failed to notice: "In the late afternoon of April 26, 1937, German bombers and other warplanes attacked Guernica, a town of about 7,000 persons in northern Spain. This raid was part of the Spanish Civil War , fought just before World War II. The Spanish Republic was battling rebels led by Spanish General Francisco Franco. Hitler had sent a special air force unit to Spain to aid Franco and to test new military aircraft and bombing tactics. In the assault on Guernica, German pilots left a small munitions factory and other possible military targets untouched. They aimed their explosive and incendiary (fire) bombs into the center of the town. A squadron of experimental aircraft dropped the first bombs on the plaza in front of the railroad station filled with war refugees. An eyewitness described what happened: A group of women and children. They were lifted high into the air, maybe 20 feet or so, and they started to break up. Legs, arms, heads, and bits and pieces flying everywhere." https://usawatchdog.com/a-period-of-great-uncertainty-martin-armstrong/

The German text does not say that the RAF bombing in 1939 killed 435 people. It clearly is about the total death toll during the war from bombings. That first bombing attempt was a miserable failure. Stop making things up. Yes, you are right about Silesia. But this justified the occupation of Poland by the Nazis? It was a legitimate war? Even thought it meant the erasure of Poland as a nation? Now, you definitely qualify as a Nazi fellow traveler. You condemn the racism and war crimes (although downplaying those) but condone the aggression and conquest. And the massive carpet bombing? And your potted history is very misleading. For at least the last 250 years Poland has been a victim of the Germans, not the aggressor. Share with me the dates of the epoch when Poland was a predatory and awful neighbor.

Trump said McCacain did “a horrible horrible thing” by casting the deciding vote against an bill to repeal the Affordable Care Act. "Paul Ryan couldn’t persuade him. Neither could Mike Pence. And in the end, President Donald Trump couldn’t reel in John McCain either. The president made a last-ditch effort, calling the Arizona senator and key holdout on the GOP’s Obamacare repeal measure, as the bill’s fate hung in the balance, according to two sources familiar with the conversation. After Pence had spent about 20 minutes working McCain, the senator went off the floor to speak with Trump by phone, those sources said. Whatever the men said, it didn’t work. Shortly before 1:30 a.m. Friday, McCain strode to the well of the Senate, and gestured his hand downward to vote “no.” Stunned gasps echoed throughout the chamber." https://www.politico.com/story/2017/07/28/how-mccain-upended-obamacare-repeal-241070

So your claim about Wilhelmshaven was false, correct? And that was the evidence you based your claim. Now you're just making assertions that fly in the face of evidence. Given that the Germans via bombing systematically destroyed housing and other faciliities for civilians, such as hospitals and schools, during their invasion of Poland, your claim is clearly nonsense. The Treaty of Versailles stipulated that Poland be given that land. Germany signed that treaty. You fail to note that the Poles had legitimate reasons to fear German aggression after WW1. As the Czechs before them would find out. And since Germany didn't exactly stop with repossessing the territory it lost to Poland after WW1, your claim that the seizure was to correct an injustice is ludicrous.

You're the same party who claimed in this topic that the Inflation Reduction Act stipulated that "Biden/Harris introduced the 'Inflation Reduction Act' (that worked great eh?) which forced business to tax all tips and make an estimate on those which were not 'reported'. " Had you read the article you linked to you would have known that was false. And then you claimed that Trump's claim that he saved Obamacare "He did. When it went to the Supreme Court and he won, it was clear doing what he wanted to do would cause more harm than good - so he backed down and did not completely shut it down. In that sense he 'saved' it - maybe next time he will listen to those who said 'shut it all down anyway'. " When I pointed out this was utterly false, that the Supreme Court actually ruled Obamacare constitutional in 2012, and that Trump pushed to get Obamacare repealed during his first year in office, you regurgitated the above ridiculous falsehood. But at least when you were challenged on this, you bravely and honestly....evaporated.

Your original claim was that Britain introduced carpet bombing into Europe. That is false. As for Wilhelmshaven, what the German text says is that 435 civilians died throughout the war due to bombings. Not during that first raid. Per the terms of the Versailles treaty, which was put into effect on 20 January 1920, the corridor was established as Poland's access to the Baltic Sea from 70% of the dissolved province of West Prussia,[65] consisting of a small part of Pomerania with around 140 km of coastline including the Hel Peninsula, and 69 km without it.[66] The primarily German-speaking seaport of Danzig (Gdańsk), controlling the estuary of the main Polish waterway, the Vistula river, became the Free City of Danzig and was placed under the protection of the League of Nations without a plebiscite.[67] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish_Corridor From the very first hours of World War II, Warsaw, the capital of Poland, was a target of an unrestricted aerial bombardment campaign initiated by the German Luftwaffe, which was controlled by Hermann Göring. Apart from the military facilities such as infantry barracks and the Okęcie airport and aircraft factory, the German pilots also targeted civilian facilities such as water works, hospitals, market places and schools, which resulted in heavy human casualties that possibly led to the early surrender by lowering of morale of the Polish army defending the city. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Warsaw_(1939) And Germany didn't just confine its bombing to Warsaw.

Another extreme right winger who believes that a young woman's sex life somehow reflects on her character. And, apparently, stuff like the following doesn't count with them: Taylor Swift gives over $50 million in bonuses to 'Eras' tour crew Swift stunned the tour's trucking staff by giving each truck driver a check in the amount of $100,000. The superstar paid more than $50 million of her own money in bonuses to hundreds of support staff for her record-breaking tour, along with handwritten notes. Many crew members thought they were about to attend a routine production meeting Monday when Swift's father, Scott Swift, made a surprise visit. He gave a speech and handed everyone envelopes, Michael Scherkenbach, founder and CEO of Shomotion trucking company, told CNN. https://abc7news.com/taylor-swift-gives-bonuses-eras-tour-bonus-truck-drivers-net-worth/13588228

From that same article: "The tariffs that Mr. Trump has floated are orders of magnitude larger than what President Biden’s administration has proposed, presumably covering more than $3 trillion of trade, and implying a much bigger impact on the economy."

It's an interesting question how well I would do. Now if only my father had left me $450 million dollars I could better answer that. I hope I wouldn't get out-negotiated the way Trump did on so many deals. It was Trump's inability to pay back loans from the banks that led to the boycott. Not lawsuits.

He's actually a failed Big mouth New York real estate developer. He destroyed the business his father had so successfully built. Banks in New York refuse to lend to him because of his recklessness and poor negotiating skills.

For starters I have been unable to find any evidence that the RAF managed to kill anyone apart from 2 German pilots in the disastrous for the RAF raid on Wilhelmshaven. https://www.tracesofwar.com/articles/3642/Airraid-on-the-German-Navy-at-Wilhelmshaven-18-December-1939.htm And even if 450 were killed, that's your idea of carpet bombing? This is more like it. As part of the German invasion of Poland: "Another German innovation of the September Campaign was mass terror bombing. One hundred and fifty towns and villages were targeted in first days; the little town of Wieluń was flattened on the first of September. Warsaw was repeatedly hit, marking the first time a major European city was bombed systematically by an enemy air force." https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/invasion-poland-september-1939 And by the way, here's a little extra something for you: "On August 22, just before the invasion, Hitler delivered a speech to his military commanders at Obersalzberg. In the speech, he said that the object of the war was to physically destroy the enemy. Men, women, and children of Polish descent or language were to be killed without pity. The campaign was to be carried out “with the greatest brutality and without mercy.”[4] " https://www.nationalww2museum.org/war/articles/invasion-poland-september-1939 Does that ring any bells?

Much of the Ukraine was in fact Russia? Which part was that? Even in the east, into which ethnic Russians moved when the Ukraine was rapidly developiing induistrially, and where pro Russian political parties once had a foothold, they are now despised. For those of you unfamiliar with the term "cuck" , short for cuckold, its commonly used by extreme right wingers to denigrate progressives. In other words, in their deranged viewpoint if you're a progressive that means you're subservient to women and weak. Lots of resentment among them towards women as women increasingly rise to positions of power.

Regurgitating much?

Please. Putin has repeatedly claimed that the Ukrainians and the Russians are one people and that Ukraine isn't a real country. Here it is in his own words: "During the recent Direct Line, when I was asked about Russian-Ukrainian relations, I said that Russians and Ukrainians were one people – a single whole. These words were not driven by some short-term considerations or prompted by the current political context. It is what I have said on numerous occasions and what I firmly believe. I therefore feel it necessary to explain my position in detail and share my assessments of today's situation." https://www.prlib.ru/en/article-vladimir-putin-historical-unity-russians-and-ukrainians "At the same time, the idea of Ukrainian people as a nation separate from the Russians started to form and gain ground among the Polish elite and a part of the Malorussian intelligentsia. Since there was no historical basis – and could not have been any, conclusions were substantiated by all sorts of concoctions, which went as far as to claim that the Ukrainians are the true Slavs and the Russians, the Muscovites, are not. Such ”hypotheses“ became increasingly used for political purposes as a tool of rivalry between European states." http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/66181

The question is, why is it booming? Maybe for the same reason that the US economy boomed from 1942 to 1945?

Should we thank Trump for his service?

The only thing mysterious is why Trump partisans can't understand why it's when mail-in ballots are counted that determined how the count qwnr. In Pennsylvania, the Democrats wanted to change the way they were counted so that they were tallied as much as possible before the election day. The Republicans refused. That way they had an excuse to manufacture a false narrative of the "mysterious" swing of mail-in ballots for Biden. Thanks to Trump's denouncing mail-in ballots and warning Republicans not to use them, the overwhelming majority of those ballots was cast by Democrats. In Iowa mail-in ballots are counted before other ballots. So at the start of the counting, the vote showed Democrats with a big lead. I don't any Democrats crying foul when the vote ultimately swung to Trump.

Another lunatic conspiracy theory. Trump's campaign hired 2 teams of forensic specialist to look for evidence of voter fraud and found virtually none.

It's hit a new low point today since it opened to trading: https://www.google.com/search?q=djt+stock+price&oq=djt&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBggAEEUYOzIGCAAQRRg7MgYIARBFGDkyBggCEEUYOzIGCAMQRRg7MgYIBBBFGDwyBggFEEUYPDIGCAYQRRg80gEHNzM1ajBqN6gCCLACAQ&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
