Popular Post Chomper Higgot Posted June 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 8, 2020 1 hour ago, TopDeadSenter said: Trump is the only recent president not to be invading other nations willy-nilly. The death tolls of some of these misadventures by "good" US presidents are in the millions and the chaos and power vacuums left causes many more. Yet Powell uses his voice to attack the President of peace. A president whos only crime is wanting to make America great again, bring back jobs, make the economy resilient. Says it all. Powell will never feel any responsibility for the death and destruction he caused. ‘Power vacuums’ you say. And at last we agree on something. The world’s dictators and viscous regimes have thrived in the power vacuums left by Trump. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing, but I doubt R Reich has ever supported Trump. The military swears to the constitution, not an ex president, which Trump becomes the instant the new POTUS takes over. However, expect a lot more of the BS "Trump will refuse to leave the W H if he loses" media pieces as the election comes nearer. They've tried everything else to get rid of him and failed. IMO they may now be trying to whip up support for a coup against him when he wins. Where’s your evidence of this coup you are rambling on about? 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Executive orders are now used in places the original founders would have been apalled about. Wars have been waged and called "police actions" to get around the constitution. The constitution has become an annoyance to every sitting president. Don't even start about abrogation of first amendment rights under the guise of fighting terrorism. Trump is no different from any other president in that regard. He is just more vocal about tweeting his disrespect for it. At some point it will become so bad the states will call for a new convention that will tear it up and start over. That is when the real scary part begins, because nobody knows what will come out of that. It hasn't reached that point yet. But it is ever present in America's future.

Going to see lots of tweeting tantrums from Trump in the coming days, should be fun but do check the facts in case anything he says may be incorrect. You might want to change that to '...do check the facts in case anything he says may be correct.' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a tree falls in the forest... The usual tactic, attacking the messenger but never addressing the message. Trump has been doing this for years and it gets old. Powell speaks the truth, and so did Mattis, McRaven, Amash, McCain, Tillerson, Kelly....the list is long and distinguished. But the hits will keep coming. John Bolton expects to put out his book this month and it should be scathing. Biden intends to roll out his “Republicans for Biden” coalition later in the campaign. November will not be kind to khun Trump. 6 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
