Bkk Brian Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 6 minutes ago, JonnyF said: Actually another poster stated how the last year had shown how we needed a mature President. Biden was the President this last year and at 79 you could be kind and call him "mature". So I refuted his assertion. Hope that's OK boss... I can see you're having problems with the truth now as well, this is what the other poster said: "I think the international events of the past year have demonstrated precisely why it’s important to have an experienced President in the WH." To which you replied with reference to Biden One that doesn't know the difference between Cambodia and Columbia? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Bkk Brian Posted November 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 16, 2022 1 hour ago, Phoenix Rising said: Fox News cut away from Trump's rambling presidential announcement speech after 40 minutes "During his rambling, hourlong speech on Tuesday, Fox News cut away from Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign announcement after approximately 40 minutes. The conservative news organization, which regularly promoted Trump's policies and hosted his speeches while he was president, cut away from the live remarks in favor of commentary about the former president's third bid for office." Noticed an article on Fox News where they mention all the ongoing investigations into Trump and their prediction that Trump may seek emergency intervention measures from the Supreme Court in an attempt to temporarily block any release of his tax records—which likely will come under renewed scrutiny now that he decided to run for a third time. Personally I see no choice for Trump than to run, its his only hope of keeping his head above water and not in jail. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Trump's erratic behaviour and B.S. talking was not responsible for the bad coverage he had? What should the media do? Diffuse B.S. propaganda instead of checking facts and debunking B.S. I guess you will also complain that CNN is being unfair to Trump for debunking the B.S. he just said? https://edition.cnn.com/2022/11/15/politics/fact-check-trump-announcement-speech-2024/index.html 5 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I paraphrased that his position was "the last year had shown how we needed a mature President". It was an accurate summary of what he said. I referenced Biden to contradict his position.

The fact is that the national reserve was less when Trump left office than when he assumed it. https://www.factcheck.org/2022/04/strategic-petroleum-reserve-oil-stocks-declined-under-trump-contrary-to-his-claim/ The SPR was only marginally less when Trump left office than when he assumed it and Trump's attempt to top it up in 2020 during the extreme low price period was blocked by congress. The relevant fact is that Biden has squandered half of the rest already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nauseus Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 2 hours ago, LosLobo said: 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.

Paraphrasing inaccurately is no excuse for not quoting what he really said, its not exactly hard and exposes your attempt to hide the fact that it had nothing to do with a "mature president" "I think the international events of the past year have demonstrated precisely why it’s important to have an experienced President in the WH." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
