It’s always enjoyable to see the Progressive monster turn its attention on one of it’s own proponents.

Or Power, it could be that, much to the chagrin of Progressives and business as usual Establishment fans, most regular everyday people actually like that DJT is trying to get things done (and the direction he is taking the country in trying to do those things).
That is Canada’s choice and it would appear they’ve made it. For now.

I personally do not think a future tightly aligned with Western Europe and CCP as Western European nations aggressively move towards abolishing their historical national identities in favor of open borders and an authoritarian governmental CCP style model that also aggressively seeks to punish and eliminate wrongthink and wrongspeak is a winning strategy for the long term future.

The U.S. may have “betrayed” being a leading voice towards implementing that model everywhere but if so, I’m glad we betrayed it.

Better get used to it. This reality is 100% on Trump. Blasting Canada with tariffs and 51st state threats turned a 20 point conservative lead into this cuck winning.


I’m not sure how Canadians choosing to live under continued hyper-aggressive Progressive rule ultimately punishes DJT or America for that matter.

They are the ones (whatever their reasons) who will have to live under it.

Congratulations to Canadian citizens on their Pyrrhic victory I guess.

Carney and Liberals win in Canada


I don’t get it…but if Canadians want more of that open border, authoritarian, CCP admiring “liberal world order” nonsense that’s for them to live with and under.
Well, one thing we know Pritzker can’t resist is the buffet line.

The U.S., on balance, has a stronger economy than China, but with an unnecessary trade war, we’re taking an unnecessary risk. It’s nuts…


I understand what you say, but I guess my bigger picture viewpoint is, even if the situation presented itself someday where it was deemed a “necessary risk” (such as Taiwan), why have we allowed ourselves to reach a point where there’s any level of financial “risk” to consider when it comes to dealing with a gigantic communist country?

I can’t imagine us ever having put ourselves in such a situation with the old Soviet Union, at any time.

But because the CCP has smartly put a seemingly friendly “capitalist/business” mask on its face, we’ve been lulled into approaching them differently.

I really liked Gov D. Been an outstanding governor and FL is about as GOP red as you will find nowdays, in no small part to his efforts there.

In spite of his ill-advised run against DJT in the primary, I thought he had generally defended DJT and the Trump admins efforts consistently once DJT became the nominee and went on ahead to re-take the WH.

A relatively young guy and still potentially a good future and ability to make an impact in the decades ahead.

Disappointing, if any validity to the allegations.
Not liking the optics on this one and doesn’t do much to separate the “pay to play” aspect from the regular DC scoundrels we rail against.

(See Progs - you can still fully support a president and not 100% rubber stamp and be blindly obedient to every single thing that comes about during that person’s administration.)

Joe Biden insists that if he defects he will defect to Canada.


First thing old Joe has said this century that I could enthusiastically support.
These Armageddon type news items/threads only ever seem to reinforce the underlying notion that CCP has this country firmly by the gonads.

There’d never be any situation where we could truly risk pizzing off the Chinese communist party.

How in the world did this country manage to get itself in this precarious position in the first place?

Doesn’t seem to be a very favorable spot to be in.

What on earth could justify that?


Nothing that could be construed as “good”, that’s for damn certain.

Nah, let em continue to double or even triple-down.

The New (marxist) Democrats’ Achilles heel would seem to be in failure for self introspection.

They think WE (the general American voters who rejected them) are the problem.
The Barry Obummer era:

The gift that keeps on giving.

It’s wonderful that DJT is back in the White House and …..it’s also going to take more than that alone to scrub this Marxist inspired fungus of divisiveness from this republic.
quote:

Obama, Soros, and the filthy progs are killing the democrat party.


They’ve already killed it as far as the older, traditional Democrats most of us grew up being familiar with.

These are Socialists now.

“Democratic Party” as a name continues on in a zombie like manner due to familiarity (sort of like the word “liberal”.)

As they become only more emboldened in the years ahead I would anticipate them finally taking off the mask and rebranding to the more Euro sounding Socialist Democratic Party.

All these folks share one “principle”, if you can even call it that.

They want to see DJT fail.

No one is above the law!

….unless you’re helping to advance the Left’s political goals.

100%.

This country hasn’t had an actual revenue problem but rather a long-time spending problem.

Both sides of the aisle have long partied like sailors on weekend leave.

Small government conservatives are outraged that the state didn’t mandate the specific curriculum that must be taught in schools across the state? Ya don’t say…


Because fundamental reading skills should be such a partisan issue.

Do you really think these CA teachers had the kids best interests in mind when they killed this?

Do you even stop for a moment and hear yourself sometimes?

Rfk is a crack head. We're not fat because of seed oil and food dies. The us is fat because we don't walk anywhere, and we don't eat fruits or vegetables.


Take off your partisan ballcap for even a moment and realize all those factors can be contributors. It’s not a this or that situation.
