Do you get in trouble for texting at the klan rally? I always heard those events were no phones.

You can't see the difference between a low-effort attack on a politician and a low-effort attack on someone posting here?

Quite a jab at Pelosi there. And the look on Omar's face is priceless. I wonder how she can continue to stat deny and deflect. Can't wait to hear her clap back after the speech.

I thought it was a fairly tame speech and not too combative until about 15 minutes ago, but he has clearly gone off script in the last bit and just can’t help himself. Just crazy.

No. You single out Johnny, whom I’ve called out before for doing that ####, but ignore the other 90% of posts while saying it’s “nothing but drive bys” in this thread.

Stat deny and deflect? What are you referring to?

I refuse to watch any of this stupid crap, but I'm just curious if he's mentioned how he's going to reduce grocery prices yet? Apparently his handlers really wanted him to address this in order to win over voters who have soured on his economic policies ahead of the mid-terms.


I'm gonna go ahead and guess no? Without watching, I assume it's gone like this so far:


-Tariffs are awesome and we have the bestest economy of all time. The entire world has been ripping us off!


-The Supreme Court are traitors to America.


-Immigrants are all terrorists and we're gonna kick 'em all out.


-The 2020 election was stolen.


-The U.S. Olympic hockey team rules.


-Windmills suck.


-Inflation is a democrat hoax.


-Climate change is a democrat hoax.


-It's all Biden's fault.



Did I miss anything?

Nailed it.

He did address rising grocery prices by just saying they are actually down. Yup.

And used one token example of a detransitioned kid to say that it's wrong to protect trans kids and anyone who disagrees is "crazy".

And yet Omar keeps playing the race card and claiming that her Somali community is being singled out.

Pelosi's personal stock portfolio outperforming the stockmarket. Title from a Money Wise Article:

"Nancy Pelosi posted up a staggering 16,930% return on investment, beat the market by 581%"

Someone comes in here ####posting and are surprised when a few ####post back?

Again, you said “nothing but drive bys” so a couple of examples isn’t going to win you this.

Nay, I'm sure this board seems quite read up on both perspectives and has high tolerance for opposing views without resorting to name calling.
