Run for president then. Good people who love their family don’t do this.


I don't think it's so much of a family issue.
The big drawback for Rush Limbaugh was 'I don't like begging rich people for money. I'll owe them something.'
When asked IRL why I never ran for any political office I always said 'I'm not a good liar.' They all lie. Some just lie a lot more than others.

The real majority of Americans feel this way. The extreme fringe groups on both sides have taken over.

Woke or Nazi. Pick your poison...

I agree, but it’s where we are at this point.

So decide. You want Donald Trump and hope that some of the chaos at the border can be contained, and we hopefully get some better heads of federal offices? Or do you want to continue the Biden Administration with an emboldened Graham, Kerry, and Buttigieg leading their respective departments?

I guess either way, just keep the automatic Amazon deliveries of adult diapers active and the injections handy for when whomever wins has to make a huge TV appearance to show some “vigor”.

I certainly hated the screwing up of cheap gas, great economy, fewer wars, strength and confidence on a world stage because 1/3 of the population has hurt feelings because their dad yelled at them once and he was really mean about what a dumb@ss they were and that reminds them of Trump and that there are too many people want to cater to that because they themselves are p2ssies..

How to tell me you are an idiot without saying you are an idiot.

Show me something the Nazis did that Trump did that was similar and actually source it with fact.

I sat in on a talk with Rich Thau last week. He does extended research on independent and swing voters that decide elections. Overwhelmingly they do not want Biden or Trump, age being the biggest factor.

Putting nationalism at the forefront.

The America First Committee, whose spokesperson was Charles Lindbergh, was founded in 1940 to support American isolation and Nazi appeasement.

Two very unfavorable candidates. Every poll tells us that.

I don’t know and that is a huge problem in y opinion because others feel the same way. Somebody needs to step up in 2028.

Our candidates are a reflection of ourselves overall. We are a country that is getting older and crankier. Our choices are two cranky old men of 77 and 82.

WE chose this.

Like who though? You can’t say that we have a shitty candidate and then back it up by saying ANYBODY but these two. Surely there is someone you would like to see in there.

How about this..

Which PAST President would you like to see running?

They gave you the best governor in the history of America (DeSantis)

A very smart entrepreneur billionaire (Vivek)

A war whore fake Nikki Haley

A soldier who is extremely smart, beautiful and loves her country (tulsi)

I mean who else would you like to see run? Surely you can throw a few names up on the dartboard and one will stick

Trump is the closest to selfless and serving that we've had in a long time. He's not perfect but IMO a step in the right direction.

Hard to see it any other way.

It’s certainly cost him a lot personally. He’s persistent, tough and resilient. I respect that.
