Biden’s statement after border visit.

From the article:

"It's real simple, it's time to act, it is long past time to act," the president said. "It's time for us to move on this, we can't wait any longer."

What a clown!

Well --  the "newcomers" didn't get a very warm welcome when they "new came" to Martha's Vineyard!  LOL!!  Or, as a matter of fact, to any sanctuary city.  HA!!!!

democrats love to put happy terms on disasters.

planned parenthood = abortion mill 

From the article:

Ahead of President Biden's visit to the U.S.-Mexico border on Thursday, the White House debuted a new term for illegal immigrants arriving in the country, calling them "newcomers."

My post should have read one who is “not” programmed, but most of you can read between the lines and know what was meant. 
 

i appreciate your four paragraph response, but what I said is how I feel. 
Look at one of the first communist policies….. it’s socialized medicine. Once they have you under that umbrella, you’re toast. Call me crazy, stupid, an idiot…. Doesn’t matter. There is not one Democratic policy that I agree with. It’s totally the reason their campaigns don’t run on them. All it is is smear, or in this case arrest, your opponent because you can’t even sell yourself or your beliefs/policies to the people. 
 

Don't forget, you're talking to a "conservative" that considers Republicans "radical" and now thinks the democrat party has good ideas, all while telling us to find some principles and stick to them.

lol lol lol

You're not wrong... but some of their ideas aren't as dumb as I used to believe that they were.  Single payer insurance, for instance.  For years I worked jobs I didn't like and made the choices to NOT start a business, partly because I needed health insurance for my family.  Now they tell me that everybody has right to the healthcare for which I've sacrificed?  I disagree.  Or disagreed.  When my company bills me a thousand dollars per month for health insurance, then the providers ask for tests to be run, then my insurance says "well, those will count towards your $5000 deductible" and at the end of the day I'm getting stuck paying for premiums, just so that I can over pay for services out of pocket... the system is broken and maybe we SHOULD be looking for a system that will put the health insurance companies and providers that over-bill them out of business.  Obamacare brought us a provision that said that you could no longer deny health insurance coverage for a pre-existing condition.  The insurance companies HATE that, but it's been a pretty good deal for anybody from any party that is trying to get health insurance coverage.  Every person that I know who buys insurance privately is doing so through the exchange, too... People in private practice like therapists, lawyers, etc...  My guess is that you are on Medicare and your beliefs are more like mine used to be.

 

The point that I'm trying to make is that if you, a conservative, disagree with any single part of the party line... you're out.  Don't think Trump is the best choice for President? Be gone.  Maybe you have a gay kid and don't understand why he can't marry the guy of his dreams?  Be gone.  Maybe you agree with every single thing in the platform, except maybe people shouldn't be able to buy a 30 round mag for their AR out of a bin at Academy for less than ten bucks, considering how they're usually the weapon of choice whenever somebody shoots up a school?  RINO!  Be gone!

 

They want Dade Phelan gone.... he committed two cardinal sins.  First, the didn't sideline anyone with a "D" next to their name.  You know, who cares about their ideas, skills, experience, expertise, or whatever.  They should be silenced in the legislative process.  The second thing that Dade did wrong was that he refused to overlook "Our General's" criminal activities... not because he didn't do anything criminal, but because he's our guy and agrees with us, so he should get a pass.  

 

The Republican party is under the control of radicals.  And people who call themselves conservatives don't understand what that word means, or they wouldn't vote for a guy who cut taxes without the corresponding spending cuts thereby exploding our debt, and handed out trillions in PPP loans with little to no supervision.  People complain about being forced to take a vaccine while simultaneously re-nominating the guy who shoved it down out throats via "Operation Warp Speed."  The problem is that the voting public is enamored with big personalities who tell good jokes or insult people like we wish we could do in real life.  There's no difference between somebody saying "Obama was the best president we've ever had" and somebody else saying "Trump is the best president we've ever had."  None.  Neither were the best, they were just your favorite.  Find some principles and stick to them. 

At least be honest in your posts, Operation Warp Speed was to make the vaccine available because that was what the "experts" at the time said needed to happen.

Your democrats are the ones that shoved it down our throats, kicking folks out of the military and firing health care workers.

You seriously cannot look at things clearly because of you hatred for Trump.

They’re not knocking him out, they’re using the courts to galvanize the trump voters around him. They WANT him to be the Republican nominee. Trump is in a dead heat vs Biden, but Haley is up 13 points on Biden. The Dems need Trump as the Republican nominee, and attacking him motivates trumps followers to stay the course. The media keeps cackling, “every time trump gets indicted, his ratings AMONG Republicans go up! Let’s do it again!”

You are absolutely, without a doubt, the most pathetic political analyst I have ever seen.

Please don’t quit whatever important job you are currently doing.

What about this part?
Plus, I don't think the Dems agree with your pessimism that Trump can't get elected.  Look at the "lawfare" they waging against a private citizen.  And none of it is true.  All will eventually be thrown out.  Just trying to tie him up.  If he wasn't a threat, they'd leave him alone.  Even should help him with his campaign if he has no chance of getting elected like you say.  

Very true, the democrats (and squishy moderates) are telling us how Trump has no chance of winning but are doing everything they can to knock him out so they can face…the cake-walk candidate?

who says they would’ve cake walked to victory…some poll🙄, some media pundits🙄 come on now
Trump has already proven himself 16-20(and against everyone, media, gop, dems )   This is why he wins the conservative vote.  Pretty simple. And most believe that there was cheating taking place in 2020. So that plays in their decision as well.

Not that there isn’t any uniformed gop voters  cause there is.

What have the dems proved

open borders

boys can be girls and girls can be boys

MAPs🤦‍♂️

defunding the police

sanctuary cities

homeless take over

free drugs and needles

baby murders

porno books for kids

could keep going but what’s the use 

fence riders are upset oh well   What moderates and fringe dems wantf is for conservatives to sacrifice principles and most I know have dug in.

if dems win again then maybe we have a bigger deeper issue then trump

 

 

You’re right, there’s no cake walks for Republicans, it’s a silly argument that folks know they’ll never have to back up.

John McCain was the moderate darling, until he ran for President.

Mitt Romney was the moderate darling, until he ran for President.

The dopes that would consider voting biden after the last three years aren’t going to wise up just because there’s a “cake-walk” option available.

You could write a book on the things our federal government has no knowledge of but still wants to govern them.

Agriculture, energy, education, environment, housing and development…just a short list but departments that should all be abolished, in a perfect world anyway.

1. Haley will almost certainly drop out of the race after Super Tuesday.

Her statement that she’s in it for the long-haul has to be made and everyone in her position says the same thing. What else are they going to say, if you don’t vote for me this week I’m quitting? Such an admission by anyone might as well have throw in the towel at that moment. 

2. No one has to justify their vote, why they vote or if they don’t vote at all. However… the next president will be a Democrat or a Republican. The Constitution guarantees it by about 99.9%. In that respect, a no vote, or a vote for someone in a third-party other than Democrat or Republican, is ridiculous vote. You could skip voting, write yourself in, you could put it in Mickey Mouse‘s name or vote for one of the dozen or more “third” parties. On a sidenote, I always find it interesting that they call a third party any one of many. “Yeah, I am going for that third party!”. Why not call it an alternate or protest party which is what it is. 
But, no matter you’re justification to vote for whoever or skip voting altogether, nothing will change the fact that either a Republican or a democrat will be the next president.

Voting for a president when one is guaranteed to be in office, is not like not shopping at Walmart or not buying a food that you don’t like. There are most things in our life that we can simply choose to avoid. Having a president is not an option unless you move out of the country.

3. Anyone that thinks conservatives or Republicans are not going to vote for Trump at a 40% rate is in La La Land. TDS would be running strong. In 2016 he got 63 million votes and after all of his antics, increase to 74 million in 2020. I don’t know if he will increase that or if he will lose a percentage, but if he does, I don’t expect it to be much. I think Biden has shown that the 2020 election was a big mistake in the minds of many people.

The truth is painful for some folks.

Good post

I really don’t care who the Republican nominee is. Trump, DeSantis, a Republican on this site. There is absolutely no way I could or will vote for what we have now. The DEMONcrats that are in control are the worst thing that has ever happened to our country. From inflation, to letting millions of illegals into America, to putting those illegal aliens ahead of American citizens, and to constantly attacking my right to own firearms. SCREW them and anyone else who agrees with or is ok with what they are doing!!! Something has to change!!!

Exactly right, at the end of the day, you’re responsible for your vote. Can’t blame your bad decision on anyone else.

so no answer to the question 

should I assume that it’s “orange man bad” no matter how good the policies are…..

therefore whose to blame🤔

too many softies in this country who vote based on feelings.  
 

maybe our country needs another beat down. We need more hard times for the majority of Americans to wake up. If people still voting based on feelings then this country will get what’s coming and you can still blame the conservatives if it makes ya FEEL better

 

Yep, been saying it a while, we don’t have a candidate problem, we have a low information snowflake voter problem.  

You can remove all the Trumps you want and they are still here.

They are not important because they are meaningless. They are discussion points… as if the Republican legislators don’t know what is popular.

2 and 6 are almost certainly unconstitutional.

8 is likely unconstitutional in parts.

13 is probably unconstitutional 

Doesn’t change the fact that it is still a bunch of yesses from me.

He borrowed money from institutions that were happy to lend it to him and paid them all back.  It’s a shame we want to make a criminal of him and allow the deadbeats that stole money from the American taxpayers to pay off their college debt with no consequences.

Looks like a bunch of yeses.

Exactly

I guess it's entertainment for the dopey Trump haters.

From the article:

This past week Judge Arthur Engoron of New York State Supreme Court, the lowest level of courts of general jurisdiction, levied a mammoth fine of some $370 million, including interest, against Donald Trump for purported fraud under a New York statute.  

The term fraud is used loosely since no one was defrauded, an element of a cause of action under common law fraud, and no one was harmed, also an element, and there was no proof of reliance, another element. This is fraud "in the air," as the saying goes: no harm by no one against no one for no loss by anyone.  

No one testified that they lost a penny from the purported fraud, or that they would not have wanted to deal with Trump as a customer. No one came forward to complain, except Attorney General Letitia James. But more about this modern-day Torquemada later in this column.
