For you...society needs to change before you do....to enforce your moral code.

Yes, society does have to change to embrace my ideals (not moral code). I know that, especially after the last presidential election. But that doesn't mean I'll change my ideals. That just means I have to wait a little longer.

You sound crazy. I hope you can one day rid yourself of the horrible guilt you carry.

I have no guilt. I don't know how you ever thought that. I'm very happy with who I have been, who I am now, and who I will be. 

 

Of course you dont and of course you are. You're a hypocrite in the true sense of fhe word.

 

Either go live as a true socialist or stop telling others they should. Be the change you want to see in the world rather than preaching to others how to live.

Trump and his billionaire mates have just spent two very active weeks shoving their moral codes down the worlds throats.

I’m sure anything the felon creates would be tacky in the extreme 

 

You used to say 34 times convicted felon like a champ.

 

What happened? Seems you don't have as much wind in your sails in the last couple months. 

 

Hope you're OK.

Yes! You are correct in this last statement, except for calling them "good things." Nothing Trump does or says he'll do is a "good thing."

Ending the war in Ukraine is a bad thing then.

It is easy to see who has never made a sizeable donation to charity or to the government. 🙂

Brilliant 😄.

Very generous of Trump to spend his own money on this. 

What a difference to Biden trying to suck every last cent out of taxpayers money to enrich his (now pardoned) crime family. 

 

You can't even insult Biden with an accurate statement.

Not tax payers money so you can stop moaning

 

It most certainly will be.   I suppose that since you do not  make charitable contributions,you can't be expected to know much about tax  policy in the free world.

Why? he is paying for it, very generous 

 

Not really. He would be fronting the funds.

There's no way he's going to fund it himself. 

You are correct.

 

 

Here is how  these things work.

- One person sponsors the project. They then ask friends, clients, suppliers and supporters to participate.

- Approx. 50% of the donation is  deductible from income, which is a generous  tax reduction.

 

In effect, money that would have otherwise been paid in tax is instead diverted to a preferred project. If the lead fundraiser is good, much of the project is paid for by others who will also contribute.

 

This is nothing new, and is used by large companies and the wealthy to manage their tax liabilities. It isa generous offer by Trump in the sense that it will take some time to organize. He would however get credit and most likely naming rights to the room. The fact is that the US government is paying  for the tent rentals. A  built for purpose facility would be more cost effective. Nothing wrong with the Trump proposal, and I agree with him, that having the events in a tent is low end.

Too bad you failed to notice this before posting your attempt at sarcasm.

Ehh? You replied to a post that said that nothing that Trump does is a "good thing". You replied saying ending the war in Ukraine must therefore be a bad thing implying Trump has stopped the war there. 

Has he stopped it? What are his plans for Ukraine exactly?

Sadly it seems that your comprehension skills are lacking. Let me explain. The post I responded to said " Nothing Trump does or says he'll do is a "good thing." As such Trump saying he will bring an end to the Ukraine war is a bad thing. Why would bringing this war to and end be a bad thing. Do you think the continuation of this protracted war of attrition is a good thing and saying he will stop it is a bad thing? Saying you will do something is of course in the future tense so there is no possible way I have inferred the war has finished which would be in the past tense.

normal perople would see it as the joke it was.

Donald Trump is not exactly known for his witty sense of humor. His “jokes” are often mean-spirited and directed at other people, which isn’t a hallmark of a great comedian or humorist.
 
A real sense of humor requires self-awareness, empathy, and the ability to laugh at oneself, all qualities that Trump seems to lack. This isn’t to say he’s completely humorless; he certainly enjoys laughing at the expense of others, but that’s not the same as genuine comedic ability.

President Windbag is at it again. It may or may not be built, but if so...will not be with any of his money. Such a jackass. :coffee1:

I live as a socialist as best I can. It's easier to do that here in the rural areas of Thailand than in my home country, the USA. I have a lot of land and resources, and I share them with my community. I do not charge them for anything.

I will continue to champion the ideals of socialism and bring to everyone's attention the failures of capitalism.

Ending the war in Ukraine (or in Gaza) by giving part of Ukraine to the Russians (or giving Gaza to Israel) is a "good thing."

Both of those things will happen as a result of democrat leadership. With trump there would have been no wars

Parts of Ukraine are already gone. Ukraine cannot win the war. Ukraine is losing the war. So maybe not a good thing but if the end result is a ceasefire and an eventual end to the war it has to be better than the current situation. As for Gaza being given to Israel this is unfounded speculation.
