I guess in the spirit of this Easter season, let's all hope that the recent absence of and silence from the Trumplicans here means that they are in a serious period of introspection and reflection on their personal failings and the fallacy of continuing to support and champion an immoral charlatan. I know that such a hope is undoubtedly without material basis, but it is Spring time and Easter and hope springs eternal . . . and after all even a blind hog can find an acorn sometime. Mike | ||

I am truly stunned Trump ran away with the nomination. I thought no-way, as anyone but Trump would likely have the presidency in the bag. If, and that is an if, he goes through and wins one of his court cases. he could get a bigger bump, in that people think he was targeted for no reason. | |||

And yet, because the Democrats are too stupid to recognize that their slate is not electable, they may well be the ones who are responsible for putting DJT back in office. They did the same thing in 2016, got a break in 2020, when they benefitted from the "anyone but Trump" contingent, but this time they have a president with a dismal record and a left wing third candidate. They can lose this and will if they stick with the clown couple. Regards, Bill | |||

Afghanistan is anything to celebrate? Cost of Living? War in Europe or relations with DPRK? The southern border or Haiti or The War on Drugs? I don't buy into any of the innuendo like "Creepy Joe", but it's not arguable that Mr Biden has been anything other than a terrible President. A good American President will secure our borders, will solve international Islamic Terrorism, will make us energy independent and will provide a solid economy and future for Americans. The issue of homeless Americans all by itself makes the Biden administration a failure. | |||

Most of your post seem to be about jobs. Yes we're working, I certainly am, and yes my paycheck seems to go about 20% shorter. Debt relief? 40 million Americans not paying their loans is good? Yes Mr Biden is a good liberal, that doesn't equate a good President. | |||

Only a simpleton would reduce this equation down to these sole factors. But then again…  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ J. Lane Easter, DVM A born Texan has instilled in his system a mind-set of no retreat or no surrender. I wish everyone the world over had the dominating spirit that motivates Texans.– Billy Clayton, Speaker of the Texas House No state commands such fierce pride and loyalty.

Only a simpleton refuses see President Trump’s political and moral culpability in the election lies and Jan 6. President Biden loves America. President Trump has called for the shoot the Constitution. I cannot complain about the economy. President Biden’s Administration been very respectful of hunting. Much more than the guy you are voting for. President did the right thing on the Border his administration negotiated w conservatives in the Senste and got a good bill. You and the guy you are voting for killed it. My only real problem w the Administration has been the implementation of the Afghanistan withdrawal. Bad policy is bad policy. Telling the BP to unconstitutional to decertify the election and refusing to r my Constitution, My Election, My Congress, and my Capitol from the violence he inspired to stay in power he has no right to is unforgivable. | |||

Yeah! I’m voting for the Big Guy, ‘cause he’s not really a doddering old fool and Hunter made up the whole influence peddling scheme years ago with Russian whores and Putin forcing him at gun point. Hate Trump if you wish, but supporting Biden is experiencing a total loss of reality. JudgeG ... just counting time 'til I am again finding balm in Gilead chilled out somewhere in the Selous. | |||

Have you decided that Hunter’s laptop wasn’t real. That 10% to the big Guy was just a scam to his relatives, etc. I don’t doubt you’d be prosecuting Biden if it happened in your jurisdiction to include the forgetful classified stuff in the garage. Hating Trump is fine, but don’t close your eyes to the emperor. He has no clothes. JudgeG ... just counting time 'til I am again finding balm in Gilead chilled out somewhere in the Selous. | |||

Other factors exist as well, you have Trump's poor policies, especially his foreign policy which basically consists of "I'm taking my ball and going home", the cheating on his wife, pay offs to porn stars, his failed attempt to blackmail Zelenskyy, 91 criminal charges pending, the "perfect phone call" to Raffensperger, on and on. Give credit where it is due Lane, its the right thing to do  | |||

So are you suggesting that Trump set some moral and ethical standard for all to emulate in terms of his business dealings, not using the office of the President to enrich friends and family, etc.? Surely not. I would love to hear someone name the one character-related issue that Trump can claim the moral high ground on, just one. Honesty, nope. Integrity, nope. Loyalty, nope. Fidelity, nope. Humility, nope. Charity, nope. Compassion, nope. Disciplined, nope. Responsible, nope. Which one is it? There isn't one because the man is devoid of character. Mike | |||

Scott, Could you explain how things things would be different under another POTUS? The Doha accord, signed by Trump is what set up failure for withdrawal in Afghanistan. The cost of living has gone up worldwide. I will ask you the same question I ask every conservative who blames Biden for inflation. Can you point to any Western country that has had a different outcome post Covid? It would seem to me if our domestic policy was at fault, other countries who have had a tighter monetary policy than we have had should see a different outcome, that has not been the case. We have come out far better off than other Western countries who did not have such robust stimulus programs. How would Ukraine be different other than Trump would throw them to the wolves? DPRK????? Maybe Biden should offer the little rocket man a ride on Air Force 1? Good golly. Haiti? How on earth is that the fault of any POTUS? War on drugs was lost in the 1970's. I don't think Biden has been a great President, I also think many of the issues you bring up existed before his administration and will exist after it, no matter which party takes the Whitehouse. What did Trump or any POTUS do for the homeless? Reagan certainly added to the numbers by closing our inpatient mental facilities. How are the Homeless Biden's fault? | |||

Democrats still refusing to recognize that they are throwing the election by retaining Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. They did the same thing in 2016 when they refused to see just how unpopular Hillary was among much of their base. Quoting make believe accomplishments doesn't change the facts. One of those facts is that there is a potential third candidate who will be taking votes away from Biden more than Trump. I do believe Trump should be kept out of office; I don't believe that running a failed president on a platform of incompetence is the way to do it. Regards, Bill. | |||

John Kirby, Bidens spokesman said in Jan of 2021. " The Taliban have not met their commitments to the Doha agreement". Withdraw from Afghanistan may well be postponed. Biden went ahead anyway. It is all on Biden. | |||

Maybe he should have kept funding the Afgahn armed forces? You know, those folks who were smart enough to stop coming to work because they new what the Taliban had in store for them? The same armed forces that were sending the money we provided directly to the Taliban? Do you feel that funding the enemy is good policy? It might not have been all Biden.  | |||

Absolutely not. I am suggesting that Biden is a crook and a feeble minded dolt and shouldn’t be supported just because the alternative is Trump.

We will NEVER BE ENERGY INDEPENDENT as long as we have the need to import even one barrel of foreign oil. Until we adapt in order to be able to refine ALL THAT WE PRODUCE energy independence won't happen no matter who is in the WH. Also I have yet to see a viable reason why inflation/COL would have been lower had trump kept the Presidency. You folks think it would have been lower, but it seems to me that it would have increased under trump for the same reason/s it increased under Biden. Give me a home where the buffalo roam and I'll show you a house full of buffalo shit. | |||

The failed withdraw was all Biden, that was the topic point posted above. He had officers on the ground telling him what was needed, he ignored them. There are still 75000 + people we promised to get out, stuck there. Soldiers killed in the botched draw down. The ones Biden kept checking his watch on, when their coffins were being unloaded. That was all Biden. | |||
|
| One of Us |
The implementation of the withdrawal was all President Biden. See Bsck40 above. In addition, President Biden was not bound to President Trump’s promises or time table. It was not a treaty matter ratified by the Senste. | |||

You and I can have a reasonable conversation, let's leave trump out of it for a minute. I didn't vote for trump ever, won't ever and think he was a failure as president. As president, regardless what anyone did before him, Biden should have had successes, that's why he was elected. I don't know how, but Biden should have succeeded in Afghanistan and not surrendered all to the Taliban he's Commander in Chief, he's got good officers working for him, come up with a plan and execute. Homeless? Again, think of something. I favor the idea of open camps. If found to be living on the street, you are packed up and moved to the open camp. Hot meals, clean dry bed, warm showers. Open doors and gates, free to come and go as you please, but if caught back out camping on the street you are returned to camp over and over and over. If I can afford to loose billions and billions in the Middle East I can certainly afford to loose some $'s domestically. Fine! Sure! Build some new mental health facilities. Haiti is a national security threat as is our southern border and should be secured. It genuinely perplexes me that we can saber rattle and cheer for another military excursion into another "Foreign Entanglement" way "Over There" and ho hum at a failed state in our hemisphere. Mexico and Haiti should be contained. In Haiti I would send the Marines, (again,) on the beach at this date, secure the Capital at this date, the cessation of all major hostilities at this date, no exceptions, and no, The Marines are not a Peacekeeping force. DPRK should be constantly engaged diplomatically. This Hermit Kingdom business is a mistake and no, it's not give and take, it's like minding toddlers, persistence in negotiations, bribery, logic and fairytales. Walling off DPRK for decades obviously hasn't worked. Biden was an abject failure with Corona. Mask mandates, social distancing and massive bail outs were obviously a mistake and by the time Biden took office it was obvious. Our school kids are still suffering the effects of school shut downs. Like you said Steve, Biden has not been a great president, and I think that's what we need. I think these are trying times, the lesser of two evils isn't gonna cut it. | |||

Well, somebody better think of something! The Department of Defense uses 4,600,000,000 US gallons (1.7×1010 L) of fuel annually, an average of 12,600,000 US gallons (48,000,000 L) of fuel per day. A large Army division may use about 6,000 US gallons (23,000 L) per day. According to the 2005 CIA World Factbook, if it were a country, the DoD would rank 34th in the world in average daily oil use. | |||

As president, regardless what anyone did before him, Biden should have had successes, that's why he was elected. I don't know how Exactly, and neither did anyone else because Afghanistan was and is a quagmire. The withdrawal was botched, no argument at all, my point is that was predetermined long ago, it would have happened no matter who was POTUS. , but Biden should have succeeded in Afghanistan and not surrendered all to the Taliban he's Commander in Chief, he's got good officers working for him, come up with a plan and execute. Homeless? Again, think of something. I favor the idea of open camps. If found to be living on the street, you are packed up and moved to the open camp. Hot meals, clean dry bed, warm showers.

If I can afford to loose billions and billions in the Middle East I can certainly afford to loose some $'s domestically. Fine! Sure! Build some new mental health facilities. All we need for a solution like that is a willing legislature and revamped civil liberty laws. Maybe rebuild our hollowed out post WWII economy, and get the junkies off the junk while we are at....all sounds great but we have a Congress that can't agree on ANYTHING, let alone funding mental health care and homelessness. The cost of housing is certainly a factor as well, houses on my street have increased in value four fold in the last 25 years. Starter homes in the area are 3/4 of million dollars, apartments 2K plus a month. Biden is no different than his predecessors and those that follow will be no different either, I suggest the problem may be larger than a POTUS alone can address. Haiti is a national security threat as is our southern border and should be secured. It genuinely perplexes me that we can saber rattle and cheer for another military excursion into another "Foreign Entanglement" way "Over There" and ho hum at a failed state in our hemisphere. Mexico and Haiti should be contained. In Haiti I would send the Marines, (again,) on the beach at this date, secure the Capital at this date, the cessation of all major hostilities at this date, no exceptions, and no, The Marines are not a Peacekeeping force. I see Ukraine as a much larger deal. Quite a few comparisons going around now suggesting Putin's behavior is not very different from Hitler's in the pre-WWII period. Things could easily go far beyond Ukraine, I see this is a much greater threat than Haiti. I would not send the troops but rather let them work it out amongst themselves in Haiti. DPRK should be constantly engaged diplomatically. This Hermit Kingdom business is a mistake and no, it's not give and take, it's like minding toddlers, persistence in negotiations, bribery, logic and fairytales. Walling off DPRK for decades obviously hasn't worked. I think you read DPRK wrong, like Putin, appeasement will never work there. They respect one thing and one thing only, strength. Coddling up to them only buys them time to continue to build their illegal weapons. Biden was an abject failure with Corona. Mask mandates, social distancing and massive bail outs were obviously a mistake and by the time Biden took office it was obvious. Our school kids are still suffering the effects of school shut downs. The only mask mandate I dealt with under Biden was the Airlines. I'm not so sure the bailouts were a failure, we faired far better than countries who did not do them and better than the 2009 economic crisis, most economists agree that the bailouts were the right thing to do. Hindsight is 2020, we may have over reacted on Covid but so did the whole damn world. I think the response in the USA was fairly moderate when compared to other Western nations, far milder the Europe, Australia, New Zealand XChina and many others. Perfect? Of course not, but I do not see that as much different as most of the world. Like you said Steve, Biden has not been a great president, and I think that's what we need. I think these are trying times, the lesser of two evils isn't gonna cut it.[/QUOTE] Sure, we need a great President. Who would you suggest Scott? I see very few on either side looking great these days. | |||
