re: Minnesota: Doing what’s right vs. doing what will get one elected

There’s a special place in hell for people like Tampon Tim. So many skeletons in that closet.

Nice propaganda piece to get us involved in regime change
has it ever occurred to you that the Chavez/Maduro regime might actually want to undermine America? why do you immediately assume it’s all a conspiracy? it’s really not far-fetched at all - in fact, it makes perfect sense.
But since it’s Trump, you’re forced to do some mental gymnastics.
re: Is Pete Hegseth Cooked?

Hegseth is a threat to the DoD deep state. As a result, they are trying everything possible to get rid of him. Once you realize that, you can’t give these people an inch. Don’t fall for their attacks.

Oh my god the horror! The military killed people?!
I can’t believe this is even a controversy. So we killed 11 cartel members, instead of 9. I don’t give a shite about your war crimes. You’re acting like we lined up POW’s firing squad style.
Does the Venezuela Gamble pay off?

It’s a high risk-high reward play. If Trump gets Maduro to step down without military conflict, it would be a huge win for America First. Cuts the head off a major drug trafficking organization and gets rid of an adversary in our own backyard. Goes a long way towards ridding South/Central America of cartel influence, which I think is the ultimate goal. More stable democracies in the Western Hemisphere and less cartel-controlled territory is very important to our national security.
If Maduro digs his heels in, however, this could turn into an actual military conflict. The American people don’t have an appetite for new wars at the moment. In addition, it plays right into the colonial interventionist stereotype that Maduro and other South Americans tout, which can turn more South Americans against us.
I’ve been impressed with Trump and Rubio’s foreign policy so far, so let’s hope they land the plane smoothly.

Let’s be honest, neither of us know all of the facts. But I’m more likely to believe Trump and his advisors than the Biden DOJ. Hernandez said he was set up by the cartel - crazier things have happened.

I think the goal here, similar to Iran, is to take out key infrastructure that poses a national security risk. No boots on the ground, no forever wars.
And i’m completely okay with that.

Pretty big issue I’d say. Trump taking the Vivek position should have been expected I guess.
It’s certainly an issue, but it’s important we put it into perspective. The US issues 85,000 new H1b visas every year. Not exactly tipping the scale.
I think Trump is being soft on the issue, but he’s pretty fixated on the semiconductor chip training. It’s not like he’s openly supporting Indian software engineers.
Either way, not a big enough issue to draw a line in the sand and stop supporting the President.
Link to all the accomplishments, 10 months in. Downplaying the progress, just like I said.
Oh, and both of those names are sick.

TL;DR - the attacks on Trump from the right undermine the administration and ignore all of the positive trends.
——
We all know how Trump 45 was slowed down by the left and the Deep State. Between Russia Gate and the special counsel, two impeachments, swamp creatures impeding his efforts, and Covid, the Deep State prevented Trump from fully delivering his agenda.
Trump 47 started out with all the momentum in the world. Trump knew he had to take advantage of it, and I think it’s safe to say, he did. We’re now about 11 months in, and the roadblocks are starting to pile up. Between activist judges, the Schumer shutdown, and now a faction of the right turning on Trump.
For what? Well in the words of Nick Fuentes, the leader of this faction, it’s because Trump is controlled by the Israeli lobby, supports H1b visas, and is starting new wars. While the H1b visa issue is legitimate, the other two are laughable accusations. This idea that we’re at war with Iran and Venezuela is a bizarre distortion of reality and anyone who thinks Trump can be controlled must live in a different universe. In addition, the critics like to downplay or ignore the progress. Sounds a lot like the Dem playbook. I won’t list out all of the accomplishments since I’ve done that in a previous thread.
If we fall victim to this line of thinking, we’re gonna throw the midterms to the Dems and all of the progress being made will come to a halt. The roadblocks will get worse and they’ll try to get all of America to sour on Trump just like 2020. Time to unite, accept that we won’t get 100% of the things on our wish list, but we will get most of the things and that’s worth fighting for.

Why should anyone vote for them other then to obstruct the left?
Obstructing the left is enough reason. An establishment Republican is still better than a Democrat because the Democrat is an auto vote for the radical left. I refuse to concede this nation to the left and watch it all crumble. Tired of this attitude of “who cares we’re doomed either way”.
Time to be the “strong men” during “bad times”. That starts with putting up a fight.
re: Erika Kirk reveals TPUSA push for Vance 2028 presidential bid ‘in the works’

I don’t like how people are anointing JD this early. He’s been saying all the right things for the past couple years, but it’s hard to look past his 2016 views and the fact that he’s VERY opportunistic.
Maybe he’s the real deal, but he should have to duke it out.

unfortunately it’s not just NOVA. sure it’s the worst part of the state, but we can’t lie to ourselves about RVA and even Hampton Roads. we’ve lost the Richmond suburbs - can’t sugarcoat it.
I don’t think Trump will endorse (anoint) him which will take the air out of his lead.
While I think Trump likes Vance, I have a feeling he doesn’t have enough experience in Trump’s eyes to hand him the keys to the country. Plus, I believe Trump wants the eventual nominee to earn it. He had to go out and earn it, so he expects the same for the next guy.

re: Who will take the MAGA baton?
Posted by geauxEdO on 11/24/25 at 8:42 pm to mmmmmbeeer
I think people are underestimating the MAGA ideology. it’s more than a cult of personality - Trump turned the GOP upside down with a focus on immigration, trade, capital investments, and actually being tough. It’s a specific type of conservatism that I think can stand on its own merits.
As far as who takes it over, it’s hard to say. I’m not convinced that JD is a shoe-in. Don’t sleep on DeSantis. Even though they butted heads in the primary, DeSantis is very aligned with Trump politically. If he develops his personality more, he’s a serious candidate.

can you actually define this? It’s so ridiculous to dismiss Trump and act like this administration isn’t America First over vague accusations like this. How can you look at the first ten months and your main takeaway is “but Israel!”.
I know you listen to Nick Fuentes because he says the same thing. This whole effort to separate MAGA from America First is manufactured and does nothing but undermine the most America First President we’ve had in forever.

Do some research before you chime in. Bin Laden criticized the Saudi government for allowing US troops on Saudi soil during Desert Storm. The House of Saud forced him to leave the country in 1991 and then eventually revoked his citizenship in 1994. Suffice it to say, they did not like each other.

Saudi Arabia did not do 9/11. 15 of the hijackers were Saudi Arabian citizens, but they trained in Afghanistan for a terrorist group based out of Afghanistan. You can’t put that on the Saudi government.
