  1. When during trump's term did the US cease being involved with wars?
  2. Disagree with the content in the link, then provide a credible linked source to refute. For the meantime review the forum rules before posting again.
  3. IMO the Mad Max Cabinet.
  4. trump claims he will make everyone's life better, so how will he do that if not by making changes to economic policy (the markets)
  5. Tough guy - lol Government policies either assist the 'working class" or make life more challenging. Those that denigrate the lower classes, such as trump in his first term, deserve contempt. From cutting children's disability benefits to allowing employers to pocket workers' tips, Trump tried to slash protections for the working poor in ways that have been forgotten by many. https://www.propublica.org/article/donald-trump-agenda-working-class
  6. Not always in time to prevent leaks, but sure for reporting aligned to national security matters
  7. Unfortunate you will not look at factual content. Australia is also more expensive to live after Covid. IMO much to do with price gauging which the government is finally acting upon with the supermarkets. Would MAGA accuse Biden of being a Marxist if he attempted to intervene with the markets, probably Yes. If trump, No.
  8. Yep, due to corruption within Republican party
  9. Don't recall commenting on the debate. I too though it a disaster. There again trump has made absolutely stupid comments which are overlooked or deflected by MAGA world.
  10. Snipped for brevity. Reporters are required to report, not to make their own personal judgement of the news, that's for opinion / editorials.. In addition there are now a number of fact check organisations, including within media companies to also address lies and misinformation; unfortunately they are often ridiculed by MAGA world.
  11. One would think the Oath to support & defend Constitution is far more important than an oath of loyalty, which to be open really does sound pathetic Dear Leader stuff
  12. Never said that. I support Biden concerning unwarranted and unpleasant MAGA attacks
  13. Nope, towards the end Biden was obviously starting to struggle. Should have passed on the role for re-election much earlier.
  14. Following URL talks to his background, including overseas military experience. Reading the entire review sounds like an ideal, for trump , appointee. No experience of the complexities of running a very large organisation, but loves trump. Bet the command structure at DOD will be very unhappy.
  15. Personally I find it extraordinarily weird for people and elements of the media to support trump world and it's constant lies, misinformation and outright disinformation. But you're correct many members on this forum are of the same mould from MAGA world.
  16. Many confuse opinion pieces with news
  17. I'm UK / NZ and Oz citizen. I care as US policy decision (sometimes based on falsehoods) by trump and Co often directly impact other countries economies, including where I now live, as it did last time trump was in power.
  18. Dude - lol What's acceptable credible media for MAGA world? The OP quotes facts as well as opinion related to the facts. If you disagree provide a credible source supporting your argument rather than whining a la trump.
  19. Donald Trump has convinced many Americans that the economy is terrible, but a new analysis shows that's just as false as his election fraud claims that fueled the Jan. 6 insurrection. Trump's 'huge lie' shows 'he’s taking everyone for an idiot': analysis
  20. No. You & others will only defect / flame
  21. Did you read the link? So many right of centre people are unable to comprehend the manipulation of the word "socialist" for political purposes, more than likely deliberately. Here's another example; Democratic Republic of Korea or are you going to claim North Korea is in fact democratic?
  22. For Official acts, not personal driven decisions / actions. However, given it looks like trump will have the majority in the Senate and the House, even if the Supreme Court had not given him immunity he would be untouchable. Currently, under trump, the US political system is just about equivalent to a third world country . MAGA - what a laugh!
  23. “Donald Trump and his transition team are already breaking the law,” Senator Warren wrote. “I would know because I wrote the law. Incoming presidents are required to prevent conflicts of interest and sign an ethics agreement. This is what illegal corruption looks like.” 'What illegal corruption looks like': Why experts are blasting Trump for 'already breaking the law'
  24. Republicans also voted against impeachment
  25. True, but do you really believe it is OK to give your loyalty to a President, if the President is acting contrary to the Constitution?
