The return of the Bush league Republicans.
Why wouldn’t they stop? Trump is all that is standing between them and the presidency in 2024. They believe, as most of us, that if they can take out Trump, they can coast to victory.
Donald Trump is the only one that can defeat whoever the rats select in 2024. And that’s why I support him. But I say again, he must withstand the constant daily attacks.
Whatever lets you sleep at night I guess, but that view is not likely to be accepted by Christian scholar or novice. Sort of like replacement theology being used to avoid the truth.
Why would you say that about Google? Your comment has nothing to do with the remarks Viivek made to Glenn Beck.
And how much did the Detroit Auto makers default on? Many Americans were trapped in the same corrupt government destruction of the economy, or did you not notice?
I fully agree with you!
A DeSantis flying wing on Trump as POSTUS 47 would have been a good thing.
Not only is POTUS 47 out of DeSantis’ reach, POTUS 48 may be also!
He should have listened to me!
Just saying Google won’t always give a result that’s isn’t tweaked left.
And I was responding to post 34, didn’t realize it was a reference.
1979-1983 was before cell phones became common, so it would’ve been more complicated for governance. Was he in attendance when he presided or just in town to have meetings and the like? With video-conferencing, people can be on the move and still have meetings.
When it comes to signing or vetoing bills, I don’t think you can do that by text messaging or Zoom. However, California has a full-time legislature. I don’t know whether or not that’s the case in Florida.
Must be a per state situation. He signed legislation while he was in Israel. I suspect he can similarly veto a bill from afar. Can’t figure out why he wouldn’t be able to. Obviously, the legislatures and courts have to meet, but governors are much more free to roam.
Blessedly, Florida does not have a full-time legislature; it only fiddles with the laws about 3/4 of the year. Out of curiosity, I found that these states do, and I noticed a commonality, that they are mostly blue states. Democrats thrive on coming up with regulations, so it makes sense that it takes so much time to figure out how to make each bill umpteen pages long of mostly incomprehensible legalese:
California
Michigan
New York
Pennsylvania
Alaska
Hawaii
Illinois
Massachusetts
Ohio
Wisconsin
Not sure why Alaska and Ohio are full time, but maybe weather has to do with the meetings in Alaska.
Those were worthy accomplishments, but the point is, there were likely better ways to accomplish the same thing at the cost of many fewer thousands of lives lost. I supported the Iraq War at the time. Killing terrorists? Who isn’t in favor of that? But what I’ve learned between then and now is that terrorist states don’t exist without money.
Trump understands that the root cause of terrorism isn’t Islamic ideology, wretched though that me be, but Western enablers. Without Western money Islamic terrorists are just angry, powerless throwbacks to an earlier time.

Are you FREAKING KIDDING ME!! That is a totally irresponsible thing to say. Wholly ignorant of reality. Here are just some of the ‘financial resources’ of Islamic terrorists:
-Illicit oil sales
-Slavery
-Kidnapping, murder and extortion (of victims’ families)
-Armed robbery
-Hijacking
-Drug running
-Prostitution
-Theft
-Murder for profit
-Arms trading
-Mercenaries (sending trained fighters to fight in exchange for payment)
I could go on and on. They do horrible, horrible things.
It is no small coincidence that Sicily was the last European region taken back from the Muslims and is the seat of the mafia. It is because that is “normal business practices” of uncontrolled Muslims. Normal.
There’s nothing irresponsible or wrong with what I said. Aside from petty crime, the sophisticated types of crime you mentioned - hijacking, drug running, etc. succeed largely because of complicit governments and business interests enabling and or protecting these groups. And presidents of the past never wanted to address the enablers in a serious way because so often western politicians and businessmen have a financial interest not to do so.
Trump’s approach was to put out fires when they erupted but beyond that, to prevent them from erupting in the first place. ISIS was already armed and wreaking havoc in the ME when he got there so he annihilated them. But he also understood that the long-term solution is to go after the nation states and the moneyed interests that fund and arm such extremism. His approach with Iran was a good example of that strategy - isolate them economically and politically in a meaningful way, not through lip service.
And that meant using the leverage of the United States to force compliance from Europe, China and other nations who continued to do business with them. And it was having an impact until the Biden regime took over.
Islamic terror networks need money, and they thrive when corrupt governments want and/or allow them to thrive.
You’re just making stuff up. Absolute, myopic absurdities.
Islamic terrorism has NOTHING to do with Western corporatism or governments. You might as well blame it on your electric company.
No, you’re just an idiotic who doesn’t understand the world around him. Go back to sleep.
