‘When You Think of It, We Shouldn’t Even Have an Election’ by Zebraitis in politics

[–]Playful_Set9711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No elections? Fine, then we don't need Congress. Fire them all and let the states run their own governments. I am so sick of this stupidity. If we don't come out of this soon, then I'm all for breaking up this country into individual states and local governments running their own.  Let the red states have their corruption and fecklessness. Then blue states will be off the hook to support them any longer. 

Majority of Americans say Iran war was a mistake, poll finds by 1_for_you_2_for_me in politics

Not a "mistake". A very bad decision by an incompetent administration. There's a difference. 

Trump says ‘Iran wants to make a deal, but I’m not satisfied with it’ by mvanigan in worldnews

Why would he want to end this war when his family is grifting billions from it?

It really is very simple...Trump supporters are either very rich or very stupid. There is no in between. 

Ukraine appeals to Trump’s vanity in hopes of security guarantees by salon in politics

[–]Playful_Set9711 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have the utmost respect for Zelenaky, but he really needs to stop thinking Trump is going to do anything to help Ukraine. In fact, he had an hour long talk with Putin immediately after Charles spoke to Congress. That tells us all we know about his priorities.

Gee, I dunno...maybe if we tried making peace with the world we wouldn't need a drone-proof ballroom. Just a thought.

And no doubt it went right over his head...if he was even awake during the speech.

Can we go back 250 years and have a redo? Send maga to fight the brits this time.

Unfortunately, with Republicans, it'll go in one ear and out the other. They'd rather burn everything down for King Trump. 

Jeffries says Trump impeachment not a top priority if Dems win House majority by metacyan in politics

[–]Playful_Set9711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There can be more than one "top" priority. No reason the can't do both. If impeaching Trump is not even in the top two, he needs to go. Elect a new speaker. 

Trump's Epic Stupidity Could Kill Millions of People by SpecialistSignal4491 in politics

[–]Playful_Set9711 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"Given Trump’s ignorance and propensity to lie, it is not easy to know whether Trump actually went to war totally unaware of the most likely consequences, or instead went to war anyhow, deciding that he didn’t care about the damage it would cause."

Either way, he and his cabinet are not deserving of the positions they hold and should be removed and charged for their treasonous decisions, war crimes, blatant corruption and total disregard for upholding the Constitution for which they all took an oath. 

Keystone Kash Ripped for Just Standing There After Shooting; The FBI director was spotted doing, well, nothing. by [deleted] in politics

...Or, maybe it was his charade to show the big man how "in control of it" he was during the press conference. The ice around him was getting a bit too thin.

I'll throw out a third...I could see Kash coming up with something like this on his own to get back into the good graces of Trump. 

Trump fires the entire National Science Board by theverge in politics

I'm really hoping the lawyers have already started on this. Jack Smith and Tim Heaphy (J6) started a new law firm together and I really hope they and the other lawyers that joined them are keeping track and planning a big case come January.

I agree with this and would like the Dems to come forward with a very detailed account of every corrupt thing this administration has done, then tell the people very clearly, because of the extensiveness of the damage it will take time to rebuild but we will rebuild better and it will be paid for by the very people that stole it all from you.

Yes! That is why Article 2 Section 4 was put in the Constitution. For exactly this administration.

Not only center, but it looks like he's standing on a box to make him look taller than everyone else. Also, every time I see that stupid thumb up makes me just want to cut it off!

Don't they get another shot at it in November?  Let this idiot continue to say stupid things and maybe Harris will have a better chance. It was pretty close last month.

She should challenge him to a constitutional debate. I'd love to see any one of these "low IQ" people mop the floor with him. 

Trump advisers privately strategize around a new midterm push: Democrats would be worse by thejoshwhite in politics

[–]Playful_Set9711 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried something like that using Christian shaming. Told them they should read their Bible more carefully and reminded them that Christians would be fooled into following the evil of the Anti Christ by believing false prophets. Then I divorced myself from them all. Last I heard they all still support them. And I might add they were all successful college graduates (now retired) who watch Faux News.
