Popular Post Colki Posted February 20 Popular Post Share Posted February 20 I am not american and do not vote in their elections but I am appalled that this man can be eligible to be elected to the POTUS. I do not think I have ever seen or heard of such a despicable character to be considered eligible for such a position. To me the barometer for Trump in his term as POTUS was the people he employed to support his term in office but to be then discarded in the most offensive terms. But you then read the comment of very senior people that were part of his inner circle and very seasoned diplomats and of two I recollect describe him as totally unworthy and incapable of being an effective POTUS. I cannot believe that many in the GOP could in any way support this criminal so feel the world will not be destined to suffer another term of this criminal buffoon. 6 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump haters don't like facts. Strange point; trump is the world all time champion of denying facts / creating 'new' unsubstantiated facts / creating diversions / publically ignoring and disputing world experts and intimidating them.

Skipalongcassidy Posted February 20 Share Posted February 20 13 hours ago, Wrwest said: Hmmm, yes, I do believe so many having made a lifetime of study of the American Presidents are to be given credence. The rejection of such is exactly the reason MAFA yes are recognized as rejecting knowledge in favor of ignorance based on emotional feelings rather than fact. And so it goes ... No matter how long one studies and evaluates anything... if they are focused with a biased eye the results of that study will be biased as well... I do not reject knowledge I just admit that the bias is there unlike Demons who proclaim their ignorance in blindly following the propaganda. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sooooo, Trump who never started a war for American boys to die in is worse than warmonger Johnson, warmonger Nixon and warmonger Bush the younger, not forgetting Biden who is colluding in and enabling the thousands of deaths in Gaza. I must have been wrong thinking war is bad or that it's good for American boys, and innocent Gazans to die in wars so American weapons manufacturers can mint it. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, some of us value our history, and think we can learn from it. Others totally ignore it and make up their own as they go along. Like claiming that Trump was the greatest president ever. Or that Jan. 6 was just like any other day where tourists got a guided tour of the Capitol. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LosLobo Posted February 21 Popular Post Share Posted February 21 13 hours ago, Dolf said: The US has a poor healthcare system which favours the wealthy. Most deaths were due to obesity, underlying conditions and age. The US did not rank in the top 10 for deaths per million. 12 hours ago, Dolf said: So no blame attached to all the others? Some of which had 8 years to fix it but didn't. 11 hours ago, Dolf said: Obamacare was signed into law in 2010, some 14 years ago. Your responses fail to address the crucial element of Trump’s governance during the COVID-19 crisis, which required a response centered on public health rather than politics, resulting in the avoidable loss of countless lives. Instead, you go down a series of rabbit holes using logical fallacies. Let’s consider the logical fallacies in your responses: Red Herring Fallacy: The statement about the U.S. healthcare system favoring the wealthy, though potentially valid, diverts from the discussion of Trump’s handling of COVID-19. It introduces an unrelated issue, which can distract from evaluating the administration’s response to the health emergency. Tu Quoque Fallacy: By suggesting that previous administrations are also to blame for not fixing the healthcare system, your argument deflects from the current topic. This fallacy attempts to discredit the criticism of Trump’s unfulfilled campaign promises by pointing out others’ failures, rather than addressing the promises themselves. Irrelevant Conclusion Fallacy: Acknowledging that Obamacare was enacted 14 years ago does not address the current relevance or impact of the law. This statement, while true, does not contribute to the assessment of Trump’s actions or inactions regarding healthcare reform during his term. In summary, while historical context is important, focus should remain on the specific actions taken by the Trump administration in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
