Really bad night for Ukraine. And I hope Taiwan is ready to get up for all out war, zero chance Trump intervenes if China finally invades

[dino7c]

Dems didn't do anything different last time and won...like I said

dem, rep, dem, rep, people always think better is right around the corner

When it comes to Trump speeches this was actually probably his best ever. Really didn't go off the rails at all.

Ehh. If COVID didn't hit, Biden likely gets smoked, too.

Any of the economy nerds on here able to verify any of this?

well Trump's handling of covid...I mean walking in after 8 years of Obama made him look good. Things are MUCH different now...I think people will be begging for change again in the not too distant future.

This isn't to say don't change a thing if you are a dem...I'm not a leftie anyway just a Trump hater...the guy is such a fraud

My buddy who is very right wing and a big wig in the patch was telling me this last night...as much as those guys were pulling for Trump for owning the libs he knew it would actually be bad for us

No, it’s more that the stuff that female candidate was saying made people concerned for their economic safety more than “they’re eating the dogs, they’re eating the cats”.

A majority of Americans just told the Democrats they trust Donald Trump to do less harm to the economic security of their families than the democratic policies.

In a country where so many people have their health care tied to their employer, and where so many people want nothing to do with government run anything, it isn’t racism or sexism that has them voting red.

It’s pragmatism.

Trump lifted the tariffs on Canada after we renegotiated NAFTA.

Why would it not be another negotiation ploy - the aim (hopefully) isn’t to nuke the Canadian economy.

It's a two party system. Voting against the one person capable of beating Trump is the same thing as preferring Trump, especially in a swing state.

If I were trying to convince you on one matter or there other sure. But after tonight and it should have been sooner tbh which is my own failing, folks who want to pretend this is normal or sane wash this insanity cannot be reasoned with or convinced.

So no, hurling insults would not bring you to my view point, but hopefully it shows how absurd it is to treat a deep turn into fascism as normal.

Frankly your opinion is of little relevance what is important is to treat and downplaying of the danger we are currently in as a society as the danger it is and meeting it where ever it is espoused.

You want to be delusional or outright supportive of this danger? Fine, but it should be met with ridicule at every turn because it is in fact ridiculous.

It is on CNN and other sites, but this is what some are happy about and cheering for lol. This would not been allowed when Roe vs wade was settled law.

Be, happy, what a great speech.

Really look up the 14 year old marriage law, this is why you are happy? Cheering for 14 year old marriages and women shouldn't vote?

PS. I don't live there, but it is ok to show what got voted in before. But it is also more important to say that everyone who is happy and supports Trump was happy they both died, because that is the law now, after it was changed under Trump.

Still waiting for a happy trump supporter to show the bill put forward to lower the age of marriage to 14? Own it, i think it is sick, but i also think r and carry to term, or letting this poor girl die(1 of many that are easily searchable), are also sick. Maybe others and society have moved on now, somehow, that is the new normal?

Well here we go--an inflection point. Not the one I wanted, but an inflection point nonetheless.

Foreign regimes licking their chops.

Changed it. Past tense.

Suggesting that tonight's outcome will make it worse is hyperbole, especially in light of the current composition.

I'm not reading that.

Sorry you felt the need to waste time to post it.
