re: Nikki Haley to meet with donors after surprising showings in GOP primaries: report

[quote]Nikki Haley will meet with donors next week after a series of surprisingly strong showings in Republican primaries, a source said in a new report.

Well all the numbers are in the article. It's 42% dems, 46% indies and 68% republicans. Keep in mind that just because 68% are in favor doesn't mean that 32% are opposed (some have no opinion)....
re: Iraq enacts harsh law against LGBTQ+ community
Posted by Taketts on 4/29/24 at 2:46 am
Are people in this thread actually happy about this decision or am I missing some sarcasm or inner joke? This seems like a grave violation of people's liberty. As a fellow homosexual person, I feel so bad for iraqi gays. To have their freedom to love taken away from them just like that, for no good ...

Can someone tell me why conservatives are so strongly opposed to Ukraine aid? I'm just baffled by this. Do you guys really have no pity at all for Ukraine? Note that I'm not some bleeding heart liberal, I am a conservative too but like, come on Ukraine is fighting for it's survival!...

I will support Haley in New Hampshire (I'm sadly not eligible to vote). Her foreign policy is just top notch. Trump is the better one domestically though.
Desantis however has no lane. He's trying to please everyone and that just doesn't work I'm sorry, makes him come off as a flip flopper. At le...
re: 3 migrants drowned after state allegedly blocked Border Patrol from reaching them
Posted by Taketts on 1/14/24 at 1:07 pm
For what it's worth, the feds are currently asking the supreme court to intervene. This is gonna be the biggest confrontation between a state and the federal government since... the 1960s?

re: Nikki = War
Posted by Taketts on 12/8/23 at 8:21 am
I disagree strongly. Nikki is a fantastic candidate. She represents a kind of GOP that a lot of people (like myself) have grown nostalgic of. The way some people on here talk about her, you'd think she was Liz Cheney or something. She's still pro Trump but is also capable of independent thought....
