I believe he best serves the people of Alabama as a Senator where he is one of the few truly "MAGA" Senators in the Senate.

I'm not sure how he would fare as the top executive of my state, but he has already proven how he fares as the senior Senator of my state.

Along with an actual apology (which this is not), he also needs to publicly out whoever advised/pushed him to confront Trump/Vance in the Oval Office. There is no way that Zelensky pulled that stunt unless he was given assurances that he would have cover from any backlash.

If that is indeed the case, then he needs to make public what those assurances were, and who gave them to him. Until he does that, along with giving a real apology to Trump/Vance, Trump should tell him to pound sand.

Fine. Do it with your own money and your own men, if there are any left in Europe who don't worship Allah.

Exactly. If Europe wants to back Zelensky with their own money and men, then fine by me. But the US better not send another single dollar to Ukraine unless Zelensky comes back with his tail between his legs, begging for Trump's forgiveness, and ready to capitulate to whatever terms Trump deems as necessary for a peace treaty.

For Zelensky to think what he did was actually a good idea to do in the White House, to the sitting President and VP, and in front of the media...then I can't imagine how Zelensky talked to the previous administration behind closed doors. But he found out real fast that Trump and JD aren't the previous administration.

The villain McCabe/Quinn knows who Reacher is. The moment Beck announced him his boss would’ve had Reacher killed especially after Duke was eliminated and Beck claimed Angel was part of the kidnapping attempt.

---

Yeah, there's no was that Quinn doesn't know who Reacher is. Reacher's name was on his uniform when he caught/tried to kill Quinn. And there's no way that Quinn doesn't know the name of the guy that replaced the kid's keeper, much less the guy that took the #2 spot after Duke was killed.

Now they did go out of their way to give Quinn's juvey record that basically stated that he was a psychopath with the animal torture and whatnot, so I guess it may be possible that Quinn is willing to sacrifice Duke, Angel, and the kid's keeper if it was part of his plan to get revenge on Reacher. But I would think that for this all to be part of Quinn's master plan, the plan would've had to been made by Quinn from the jump, before Reacher even infiltrated the group, and not a spur of the moment thing that Quinn decided after Reacher's prints were ran. There just wasn't a whole lot of time to consider all of it from the time that Reacher's prints were run until they gave Reacher the spot on the team after the Russian Roulette test at the barn. And that would mean that Quinn meant for Reacher to see him at the bus stop.

That also makes we wonder of Duffy is in on it since she is the one that is going out of her way to get Reacher onto the crew, and basically breaking laws to allow Reacher to continue his work on the case.

Yeah, season 4 was hard to get through.

But you also need to remember those people are not protecting his kid, they are there to hurt the kid if the dad gets out of line.

---

Yeah, McCabe/Quinn doesn't give two craps about Beck or his kid other than keeping them in line to maintain the cover for his operation, but you would still think he'd have cameras everywhere for the exact purpose of keeping them in line. But I guess we just have to suspend our disbelief on that one.

Overall, I have loved this season so far. I think I might like it better than season 1 through the first 3 episodes. Hopefully the rest of the season maintains this level throughout. As others have said, during the first half of episode 1 I was like "what the hell, Reacher would never make these mistakes", and then when he said the words "I'm in" I was in too. :lol:

I gotta tell, the fricking priest and those "lawmen" are true scum of the earth and make you ashamed of how people treated the native Americans.

---

Yeah, it was brutal, but no more brutal than how different groups of people treated other groups of people throughout history. Even how native American tribes treated other native American tribes might be more brutal than how the US government treated native Americans. The difference being that tribes would slaughter everyone and enslave the rest while the US government slaughter a lot of them and then just rounded up survivors and push them onto reservations where they lived in perpetual poverty. The US government just did it on a larger scale because of the advancement of technology such as rifles, artillery and trains, advanced governmental coordination, and the spread of diseases. But if one native American tribe had the same advantages they would've done the same things or worse to the other tribes.

But with that said, I hate this storyline for the show, and it better tie-in to the Dutton storyline somehow down the line or it's just a huge waste of time imo.

I watched 15 minutes of an episode of Tulsa King and realized real quick that I'd probably rather watch commercials than I would Tulsa King. My god that was awful.

I'm honestly surprised is still breathing.
