It depends on what you mean. I know when that stuff was happening in 2020 I was in s. It means those posts don't exist because I'm rarely on.
I can appreciate the above.

I didnt say you needed to prove your consistency, i asked if you could (i kinda suspected the answer tbh). Completely different.

Most everything you wrote is conjecture and opinion. I appreciate you keeping the response short. (Yes that was sarcasm haha)
 
Ryan is the epitome of the word RINO
I still don't get the RINO thing. Most republicans in the senate and congress are WAYYYYYYY right of the average republican. Even Trump was a pro gay, pro life, pro spend guy. He's the epitome of a RINO as it's been explained to me.

I think we had this discussion last year, lol. It's tough keeping ideas short when uber focus kicks in. But yeah, always good to have a convo even if we don't agree.

We've stated many times on here about the times we thought Trump "went too far". But that also works both ways. at what point will you ever view him with a fair and rational lens and say "well yeah, maybe that was a good policy", or "maybe Trump did something right there". You're leftist media found a way to demonize or spin every Trump move regardless of how positive it was. The running joke was always that Trump could have found a cure for cancer and the media would post headlines like "How curing cancer is bad for our economy".
But some of the stuff he did can’t be done by a POTUS. Just can’t. He acted like he was a dictator. Had no respect for tradition or the rule of law. And I hate leftist media. Bunch of anti-American POSes.
 
The very next video in this thread is the video that shows Russian troops being ambushed and killed. It shows another angle of the tank crushing the car while it’s all going in, as well as the aftermath in the following threads. It’s a little too graphic to post the direct tweet but you can look through the thread.
Would love to see a squadron of A-10s light up those Russian tanks just sitting there on the road.
 
do you sheep coordinate posting the same tweets over and over?

He didn’t act like a dictator. He acted like a boss. He acted like someone with a set of balls was running the country and putting people in their place like alpha bosses do. His policies were sound and had us in a remarkable place pre-Covid.
 
Another example on why being born in the USA is like winning the lottery yet so many “Americans” feel differently. Fly them all over to Ukraine and other countries right now and see how fast they change their tunes.
We have a country so full of spoiled rotten youth who can’t comprehend or understand just how lucky they are, yet nothing is ever good enough or satisfactory to them. My wife spent several years with a mission organization working in orphanages in places like Belarus, Mexico, Lithuania. She preaches to her children about how fortunate they are and it just seems to go in one ear and right out the other.
 
Maybe it's not MEME worthy but in 2019, Trump recalled troops from Syria who were fighting ISIS. After the Russia negotiated ceasefire ended, any Kurds remaining in a large area of Northern Syria near Turkey were slaughtered by Putin and Erdogen to create what they called a Safe Zone. Hundreds of thousands of other Kurds were displaced from the territory.

Yep. White privilege is a myth. But American/Canadian/French privilege is real.

ETA - British, Norwegian, Finn, Swede, Italian, Australian, Kiwi....I could got on and on.

For the record, a lot of Americans think their plight is not great - on both sides. The poorest white appalachian or poorest black Detroit guy both have a zillion more positives than 95% of the world do.
 
Gassy is not a troll, "DUKEBLU." You are. And you just confirmed his point - that you have the WRONG ideals when it comes to America. Your ideals would destroy our culture which has transformed the world and made it a better place. You and your fellow travelers want to see America's decline.
Hard to believe I give a 👍 to LCC.
 
I agree that everything Trump did wasn't bad. I was glad to see him elected and had high hopes for him.
For me though, the bad was so bad it just outweighed the good. Refusing to concede the election and commit to a peaceful transition of power was more in line with a dictatorship than a democracy.
I just pray we have a choice other than Biden and Trump in 2024....assuming Putin doesn't nuke us all before then.
Since refusing to concede the election occurred after the 2020 election, I presume you voted for him in 2020, right? But yes, he went way the F too far.

Lol, remember when Joe Biden gave Afghanistan to the Taliban (including $80 billion of military equipment), then gave Ukraine to Putin, then gave Taiwan to Xi. Lol. Yeah if I were you, I’d stay drunk too
 



My understanding is that if the committee vote is a tie, then Schumer needs 60 votes for confirmation. If, however, one R (Graham?) votes for her in committee, then only 50 (+1) votes are needed.

I could envision a scenario wherein LG does not vote for her in committee, but votes to confirm in the full Senate vote. She fall short at around 53-57 votes.

Then, Rs take the Senate in November and we re-visit this in January.
I think committees are equal on both sides. If so, I believe that if no Pubs show up for the vote, there is no quorum & she can't be voted out of committee.
