Standard answer to the above: That's just Trump playing 3-dimensional chess -- he only makes those 'walk back' type comments to put all the leftist folks into a tizzy.

I was excused for not going on the long packed-car family trip. Bribery at work.

To the above: The current crop of Republicans says to pay no heed to the 12 years of Reagan/Bush and 8 years of Bush II because they are just RINO's

The oft heard response to that is: Oh, that's just Trump-being-Trump.

Just look to all the topics started on the Soapbox with a link to the NY Post or Fox News and look who started it.

Both Tommy Tuberville and I were referring to the RINO's.

Those were quotes from the Republican Senator from Alabama. There will be only a 3 vote Senate majority for the GOP so they cannot have too many nay votes.

(Senator Tommy) Tuberville expects some Senate GOP resistance to second Trump term — 'Some of these RINOs better get the heck out of the way' | 11.11.24 Although the GOP rallied around Trump after securing the nomination, questions still loom over how the majority Senate will carry the president's agenda as lawmakers move into the next presidency.

Sure and that's why these days I only fly with business class reservations.

Normal? I remember living in Orlando, FL (DisneyWorld, etc.) and at the airport gate the announcement was: This is early boarding call for those who are elderly or traveling with small children or those who need a little extra time boarding. ...

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-smokescreen-of-chaos/ Trump accused of using 'smokescreen of chaos' to cover up promise breaking December 27, 2024 1:57PM ET Donald Trump's sudden infatuation with seizing control of the Panama Canal, buying Greenland and attempting to get Canada to become a U.S. state appears to be part of a campaign of smoke and mirrors to hide the fact that he is already reneging on campaign promises before he is even sworn in. That is the opinion of the Washington Post's Dana Millbank who accused the president-elect of laying down a "smokescreen of chaos" to occupy social media commentators and the press, both of which would otherwise be picking apart his walk-backs. As Millbank wrote, Trump has multiple controversies looming over him, from his highly promoted proposals for tariffs, which one of his appointees is now downplaying as a "bargaining chip," to his deportation plans for undocumented immigrants, where he has softened his language even if his "border czar" hasn't.
