"In a president, character is everything. A president doesn't have to be brilliant... He doesn't have to be clever; you can hire clever... You can hire pragmatic, and you can buy and bring in policy wonks. But you cant buy courage and decency, you cant rent a strong moral sense. A president must bring those things with him. He needs to have, in that much maligned word, but a good one nonetheless, a vision of the future he wishes to create.. But a vision is worth little if a president doesn't have the character - the courage and heart - to see it through."

With the right air filtration and plug, they can get .... passed it. Besides, it's the silent ones that'll get you in the end
Looks nothing like Allen Iverson to me. Must've had an incredibly skilled surgeon
I said "...they can get... passed it..." but for me that would signal the winds of change.
When I first saw your comment, the board auto scrolled on me, and I thought this comment was in reference to the video of the drive by in the car.
As we knew all along. Subverting the constitution and rigging an election. They had a four year reprieve. I hope they are prosecuted quickly and their executions are scheduled within days.
That picture makes him look like someone gave him a right cross and it never corrected. Too bad they did not finish the job and give him a left cross to straighten it out.
Serious question. What LAW did Libs pass that forced anything on you? If so, how is that LAW specifically impacting you today as we discuss this?
Pubs are the ones passing laws that are directly F'ing with people's lives....
Abortion and Trans laws just to name a couple.
Cracks me up libs and the media freaking out over the tariffs and everything else Trump is doing. Meanwhile, the rest of us knew exactly what we were voting for and have a guy that is doing exactly what he said he would do. We know this would not be easy and tough decisions had to be made. That is what real “progress” looks like.
Going after their ngos which are basically either or both their money laundering or shadow government. He is going to disrupt potentially trillions of dollars in cash flow just cutting down ngos.
This is insanely good but insanely brave. Thats just on THIS issue (although their tendrils are in everything).
I hope he gets to see the end of his term because this unprecedented level of cash flow disruption is not going to be well received by those stakeholders.
I see Trudeau announced a 25% tariff in retaliation.
Remember when i pointed out his language about "intending to resign" was intentional and a far cry from actually resigning? That announcement was several weeks ago. Still no resignation.

Both him and his commies are way out of their league. Trump is going to squeeze Canada into submission if they do not get their act together. We have a lot of issues of our own to deal with but we are still the spoon that stirs the world economy.
Trouble is, your side thinks more & more gifting to lower income people is helping over providing them opportunity. Until that changes, you don't understand.
Until all states have voter ID, same election days/hours, same ballots, same voting machines, paper ballots, & closely monitored election sites, no way in hell I'd trust an overall popular vote.
Nothing says Lesbian DEI hire like being a Biden White House Social Aid who escorted Ralph Lauren through the WH. She played women's college basketball...Lesbian...and is pictured with her good friend Samantha Brown....Lesbian signals coming on strong.

If gifting means affordable healthcare and a livable wage, then I’ll gladly take the stones you guys throw at us. The lower class deserve safety nets too. I also have a problem with cable companies that profit from the internet, when the DOD is largely responsible for that and tax payer money.
I forget who said it here, but I think the democrats lost their way by trying to take up every noble cause. Quit alienating hard working Americans to protect the questionable personal “freedoms” of the trans community. If we truly have 12 million illegal immigrants in this country, shun this illegal activity, and advocate for a legal immigration system that doesn’t take 10 years of hurdles to gain citizenship.
Also learn to not be so smug when you talk to people, especially people that disagree on your stances. Do that and I think democrats can regain what was loss with their strong policies on protecting workers.
I don’t want ANY more immigrants in this country. Already 14% of people in this country are foreign born. That’s the most since 1910. Were full. Get the f out.

Do we start a line and take our turns? Just to help him straighten that out, of course
It’s not that there are immigrants, it’s where we are getting them. Why are we importing people that hate us? That is an insane policy.
We need to be very picky about who we let in these days.
Roughly 99% of immigrants come here for better economic opportunities / living conditions. If I were in India or Guatemala I would do ANYTHING to get to the US. But as Elon mentioned, the US has like 4% of the world's population so if just 2% of every other country came here our population we would be completely overrun. We have to just stop immigration for a long time in my opinion to get people to assimilate and stop the flow.
That type of isolationism is the historic downfall of great empires. But, like most things, I just assume you’re being facetious.
We also need to look at why they choose to come here illegally instead of through legal means. Again, it takes like 10 years to enter this country legally. That’s just too long so of course they are going to try to circumvent the system.
Ron, can you be specific on what great empires have fallen due to isolation? The strongest years of our country were around 1945-1997. The percentage of our population who were immigrants during that time was well under 10%. It is not good for social cohesion to have so many people from completely different backgrounds in our country. For example, our public schools struggle having to manage kids who can't speak English. If it were just Spanish it would be one thing, but JCPS has to manage like 30 different languages. Further, the scale of immigrants currently in the US undercut wage rates and drive up housing costs. It's terrible for our young adults who can't afford housing.
So your premise is that because it takes a while to come in, people have the right to come to the US? How many people should be allowed to be here, Mike?

We need more smart people now. Close the border, get rid of the worst, & up the legal immigration to several 100K/yr. Those of you that want SS in the future better hope there are more payer-ins coming.
Why is it so difficult for people to understand that our POTUS election is NOT about individuals selecting the POTUS. It is CLEARLY 50 separate elections as designed in the CONSTITUTION so that the larger metro areas would not swamp the rural areas with sheer numbers. There would not be a USA if it were popular vote.
Look at the evil socialist Democrat Party today. Their party in Congress is largely California and NY run. Look too at the popular vote. Nearly 25% of Kamaltoes votes came from Cali, NY and IL. THREE states. So why would anyone spend time campaigning or sending tax dollars to by votes anywhere but those 3 areas. Would we be talking about Iowa?
Why is California so Blue and disastrous? Because they have enshrined no ID so they can allow illegal voting and they remain in power. Where you require ID you get honest elections. Russia and Communist countries conduct fake national elections. The Electoral College SAVES us from becoming THEM.
VH just admitting we're running a ponzi scheme on SS. Ha
We don't need more "smart people". We put people on the f'ing moon with 25-year old engineers in the 60's. We need to restructure our economy and education system rather than just import talent from China and India.
Pretty vague statement. There can be no argument that a society with finite resources gets no practical gain by allowing in more people than can be sustained by said resources.
Thats like saying driving your car till it runs out of gas is better than refilling when it gets low.
