They should have impeached Biden.

It's interesting to go back to the interviews of soft-spoken Democrat Trump in the Eighties. Then you can catch some through the Nineties and beyond and see him adapt to and perfect this Master of Apprentices character.

This part of the story always bugged me: In 2019, then-National Intelligence Council analyst Eric Ciaramella touched off a political firestorm when he anonymously accused Trump of linking military aid for Ukraine to a demand for an investigation into alleged Biden corruption in that country. But four years earlier, while working as a national security analyst attached to then-Vice President Joe Biden’s office, Ciaramella was a close adviser when Biden threatened to cut off U.S. aid to Ukraine unless it fired its top prosecutor, Viktor Shokin, who was investigating Ukraine-based Burisma Holdings. At the time, the corruption-riddled energy giant was paying Biden’s son Hunter millions of dollars. Those payments – along with other evidence tying Joe Biden to his family’s business dealings – received little attention in 2019 as Ciaramella accused Trump of a corrupt quid pro quo. Neither did subsequent evidence indicating that Hunter Biden’s associates had identified Shokin as a “key target.” These matters are now part of the House impeachment inquiry into President Biden. So Biden did exactly what Trump was accused of doing, holding up military aid to influence and Ukrainian investigation, and yet only Trump was attacked for this. Insane.

So one thing I think almost everybody here can agree on is that COVID-19 was a psyop. That doesn't mean the virus wasn't real. (I know the David Icke position is that it wasn't). But based on everything we know, including Rand Paul's recent revelations, the grants for the GOF research predate Trump even thinking about running for POTUS. Imagine if Jeb Bush has been president when COVID hit and allowed Fauci to lock down most of the country and gave vaccine manufacturers immunity? Or imagine Hillary Clinton doing that? Imagine the scientific dictatorship that said you can't go to church or school or Thanksgiving, or the beach or the park, but said you could mass protest or go to liquor stores, bars and hook up off Tinder under a Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush administration? Imagine if Clinton or Bush and tweeted against Georgia or Florida opening up sooner? There were armed mass protest in Michigan over Whitmere doing tyranny locally. But nationally the people most resistant to this type of tyranny were most likely to trust the man in charge. If Trump gets back in, it's important not to give him a pass on anything.

It's going to have to be bigger than that. Remember, they only need the result to be plausible - not definitive.

Wow! Trying to confirm the story. Do you have a reference?

LOL. Fraudian slip.

The swing states are all that matters. https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-poll-swing-states-joe-biden-1890829 Donald Trump is leading President Joe Biden in five of six swing states that could potentially decide who wins the 2024 election, according to a poll. An Echelon Insights survey of 2,401 registered voters, conducted for the conservative think tank The Heritage Foundation, shows that Trump is ahead of Biden in Arizona (51 percent to 45 percent), Georgia (52 percent to 42 percent), Michigan (51 percent to 45 percent), Nevada (51 percent to 44 percent) and Pennsylvania (49 percent to 45 percent). Biden is behind by 4 or more points in 5 of 6 swing states. That's a recipe for an electoral college landslide if this holds.

LOL Perfect. Do you get the credit for that, or did autoincorrect correctly identify her as a Karen?

LOL. Don't hold your breath waiting for Swordsmyth to give you straight forward answers to those simple questions. It will all be deflection.

I still LOL at Karen Jean-Pierre being forced to address this.

True. Kennedy's willingness to give Israel a blank check gives me pause and disqualifies him as a true "America Firster." Of course I can't think of a single person running this year I agree with on foreign policy except possibly Cornell West. (He's against aid to Israel and Ukraine.) But Dr. West loses me in his blind support of the Fauci COVID policy among other things. It's just refreshing to see SOMEBODY hitting Trump on these issues. I don't recall any of the GOP candidates calling him out of this crap. Nikki Haley certainly couldn't because she was part of the swamp.

Look around you. It's not 2016 any more. Back then they merely cooked numbers, quick-fried them to a crackly crunch. Things change. Now they're just plain making shit up.

We can estimate the percentages of the illegals based on those who are processed and the number of Mexicans dwarfs the number of Venezuelans. It's not even close.

So? You put more faith in that shit than you did when you were saying "Fuck you Frank" in '08? Remember what they said in '16? I wasn't talking about you.

You've got DECADES of significant decreases in deaths with regards to VMT combined with a small blip of an increase and you're ignoring all other factors other than immigration such as distracted driving. https://martinhelms.com/blog/why-are-americas-roads-so-dangerous/#:~:text=From%202020%20to%202021%2C%20the,approximately%2016%2C500%20wrecks%20per%20day. Again, most of the people immigrating to America are coming from countries who drivers are as safe or safer than white American drivers. And you still haven't explained why you ignored black countries who have driving safety records as good as the best white countries.

People are starting to get off their asses, and the clown show is the reason why. Reinstalling Trump is more likely to cause them to sit their lazy asses down again. That's why Trump is being set up to pull down an honest, undeniable landslide, so we will sit down and do nothing while they build FEMA camps. If not, I do think that the swamp will drain him. Regardless of whether he goes in intending to drain it, he will have to. Deciding not to could be the last thing he ever does.

FTFY. I'll give you through 2019, but 2020 was an unmitigated disaster. Race riots, lockdowns, spending fiascos, suspension of civil liberties, election rigging, censorship... On all his watch. If we can't expect better than that, it's time for the bunker.

That's what I have been saying all along is the fallacy of MAGA. Politicians did not make America great in the first place, and as it has cycled up and down, they were never the ones who made it great again. You think Trump sucks at picking only the best people. I think he picked the team that would do what he wanted to do. Either way, it doesn't matter much. Government needs purged. Trump is not the hand grenade so many people thought he was in 2016. He didn't even rise to the level of a monkey wrench in the Deep State works. Reinstalling him and expecting a different result looks to me like collectively living the definition of insanity. Will RFKJr. do better? That's something we don't already know. But we do know that he, very much unlike Trump, Must Not Be Named. And I came away from 2008 and 2016 considering that a very good sign. Another pair of signs I see also gives me food for thought. Trump has not only demonstrated a willingness (maybe even a desire) to resort to draconian measures, but his base loves him for it. They accept the necessity of draconian actions when he does them without question and treat anyone who does ask questions the way liberals treat dissenters.

"A reverence for the truth might be a distraction that's getting in the way of finding common ground and getting things done." Did I hear that right?

Sounds good.

Dude, did you miss the fact that fatalities per VMT dropped even FASTER than fatalities per capita? Give it up. You shot your wad too quick on this one.

And even if there are more drivers, that doesn't mean there is more driving. As OPEC taught us in 1974.

Fixed it up for you a little bit.

William Barr, who was connected PEDOPHILE Jeffery Epstein, was in a position of extreme power.

1) No they didn't. 2) Even if that was true (and it's not) then FORCE McConnell to go against a nominee that the grassroots GOP would accept and expose his true colors. 3) You can always go back if the first nominee gets shot down.

Obviously he can tell baldfaced lies in order to combat what he considers misinformation. Remind you of anyone in the news?
