Trump finally admits he is not going to go for a third term......He is so good at controlling the media.... Right now I don't see any Democrat beating a Vance/Rubio ticket, especially on the debate stage, as well as the GREAT work Rubio has done with our foreign policies.....If by the end of Trumps term, the trade deals are solved and all of the wars are ended.......I don't see how they get beat.... I do understand we have 3 years to go and ANYTHING could happen...... Trumps words,,,, "We have great people. I don't have to get into that, but we have one of them standing right here. We have JD, obviously. The Vice President is great. Marco is great, I think. I'm not sure if anybody would run against those. I think if they ever formed a group, it would be unstoppable," Trump said. [Hidden Content]

There is actually positive things going on about the trade deals in China. Trump just overseen the signing of a peace deal between Cambodia and Thailand.....as well as 18 Cambodian soldiers. I paid $2.29/gallon for gas yesterday.....

And why would you want to cut Military spending? There are 8 conflicts going on, Trump made peace deals with 7 - Ukraine and Russia is NOT looking good. While I think we could end Russia pretty quickly, that is only because we fund our military

NO - unless you want to be talking Chinese or Russian someday

If Republicans don't budge, America is about to see how much Obamacare REALLY cost without using taxpayer dollars to actually pay the insurance companies the actual premiums needed for all the mandatory coverage provisions Obamacare imposed...

He also asked for immunity....lol If you innocent, why would you need it. Trump didn't pardon his family when he left his first term.....because he knew they were innocent If you apply that to Biden........

I guess the FBI has a solid case on this one.....

It is not Jack Smith's choice...... Just like they did not allow Hunter to try and demand a public versus private....

This is pretty strange happening local They are saying he may be investigated for other random fires [Hidden Content]

I put this in politics because what's shockingly obvious is that all of a sudden the media not is questioning the FBI and their case......I found that a little strange What a dang shame btw the players are losing it all over greed. [Hidden Content]

That is high.....mine started to creep down last month.

I'm somewhat in the middle...... However. as my posy above - we need to cut spending - which means social programs included.....Are you ready for that?

Didn't I hear you were a truck driver? Fuel is about to hit an average of $3 - which is lowest since 2021.

Perhaps the Democrats should allow and not fight....maybe join in and embrace DOGE and cutting unnecessary expenses...... The problem is Democrats will scream he is taking away all the social programs.....fact is, we probably need to take away some. I think we need to tighten up the qualifications for all social programs. I think we need to re-look at unemployment benefits. When I was 19 or 20, I went and applied for unemployment and I didn't have to accept a lower paying wage than what I was making.....I ended up getting a job because the line was too long back then to wait....(that is how lazy I was back then lol) - Now days it is done by computer, so you don't even have to get off the couch......That needs to change! Anyway a few links were Democratic leaders were trying to block DOGE from doing their job to cut waste and abuse...... [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]

That what CNN and 2 farmers said on CNN Farmers still support Trump and no matter what, Trump would not upset that base.

Just in time to be an issue for Mid-terms....... I actually hope those idiots elect him

He sued them before he was elected. His attorneys will tell him to table it, and resume it after he leaves office. There is enough evidence just in the Mueller report and what was found that they knew there was no Russian interference, yet continued to pursue him to make an excellent case......and by the end of his term, they will find more.

Totally false as Baddog pointed out..... He said he would donate it or give it to White House.

Some of the TDS in this forum is insane. Since when is it a bad idea to have allies? I remember when Trump made history being the first President to walk into North Korea. The media and his haters thought he was crazy.....we don't negotiate with terrorist.....but here we are in his second term and he had negotiated 7 cease fires........but the TDS folks are complaining because he is adding on to the East wing with his own money plus donors......

Here is the problem Democrats face. The shutdown is not being blamed on Trump. Trump as of today has an AVERAGE approval rating of 45.5% On the same polling site, Obama had an AVERAGE approval rating of 43.7% on Oct 21st in the first year of his second term, so apples to apples..... If you look at the favorability ratings, leaders in Congress and senate on both sides don't look great, but Republicans have a slightly better favorability than Democrats...... I predict enough Dem's vote yes to get this thing through by the end of the week.

And he received a lot of flack from his base. He is in a bad situation. I think he is hoping some other Democrats vote to spare him this time

Then what is it about? Lets hear your theory.....

Where does China get its beef from? Guess who is in the top 3 trading partners of Argentina? Read a little more than CNN....

I have not really heard any details. It is a complicated issue. I think expanding Medicaid to people below a certain income could work. At the same time, in my job, I see people that make $250K a year or more, but according to their tax returns they make 12,000/year. Like I said, complicated. I don't see a bipartisan agreement on a single payer system ever....

I just looked it up - the penalty for not having insurance ended in 2019. I always thought it was a little unconstitutional to force you to buy something or penalize you.
