    United States US presidential election 2024

    Why not engage in any sort of dishonorable warfare? It’s not right, it causes the suffering for innocent people, and it forces the other side to escalate and engage in dishonorable tactics too.

    United States US presidential election 2024

    Ukraine shouldn’t blow up Russian oil infrastructure. The Biden administration doesn’t have much room to talk since they blew up the Nordstream pipeline, but two wrongs don’t make a right. I just hope this fiasco doesn’t escalate any more before Trump gets a chance to put this to an end...

    United States US presidential election 2024

    Yeah, we all have our anecdotes. But when it comes to hard evidence, California had both Nixon and Reagan as governors. Later it had a moderate Republican governor - Arnold. Would there be even a tiny chance of even a RINO winning California now? Texas is turning purple, not in the upcoming...

    I don’t believe that Hispanics are becoming conservative. The establishment RINOs have been promising that for literally 40 years as more and more immigrants pour over the border and more states become permanently blue. Immigration will turn the USA into a one party state if it isn’t rapidly...

    United States US presidential election 2024

    In all likelihood, Jan 6th was a mostly peaceful protest (to use a leftist deceitful phrase for truth) which was turned into a riot by FBI provocateurs. There is still a huge amount of information being covered up and withheld, still a lot of lies being told, to justify persecuting political...

    United States US presidential election 2024

    Your post is partly correct, the left said that Trump’s presidency would be the end of the world and it wasn’t so bad at all. That should be an indicator that leftist histrionics over Trump should be ridiculed rather than regarded seriously. Where you go wrong is saying that Jan 6th was some...

    United States US presidential election 2024

    Reagan didn’t have Alzheimer’s in office. This is him in 1989 giving his farewell address at the age of 77. Does he sound anything like Joe Biden? He didn’t die of Alzheimer’s until over 15 years later at the age of 93.

    It’s still possible that she could get the nomination if Trump is removed for some reason, justified by the fact that she has the second most delegates. Though that might be a bit too obvious and would really anger GOP voters. 2020 shenanigans worked fairly well, I don’t see a reason why they...

    Obviously, barring any shenanigans, she will lose. I think that she’s hoping for, even expecting some shenanigans, which is why she is staying in the race. Something like Trump getting convicted of something and/or being banned from running. Maybe even barred by the GOP itself. It’s certainly a...

    In 2028 she’ll probably be a pundit for MSNBC or CNN there to say how bad the current Republican nominee is and how the far right has taken over the GOP.

    You make a good point. I wonder if it might have been better for him to try to cozy up to Trump in an attempt to become VP. That could have kept him in the spotlight. Why not Trump? If not Trump, why not Libertarian?

    That was me from April. I think that I was right. It turns out that his charisma was a little lower than I expected. This run certainly hurt his political career.

    I thought it was easy to tell that there was some tension between them, with a few comments suggesting that too. I doubt that Trump will select Vivek as the VP.

    It makes sense. Vivek wanted to ride the Trump Train, not get run over by it. Once Trump starts attacking him, which Trump recently did, then he risks alienating the MAGA movement which he wants to eventually benefit from. Also, having a lot of low results in these primary states is going to...

    Me too. I would vote Libertarian if Haley somehow gets the nomination.

    United States US presidential election 2024

    I’d like to see Vivek as the VP nomination. It would give Trump some measure of protection against impeachment and assassination. I honestly don’t think Trump would pick someone as interesting as Vivek who might risk showing him up.

    Absolutely. There have been other highly questionable recipients, but at least they did stuff. Obama did nothing. It made a mockery of the Nobel Peace Prize.

    United States US presidential election 2024

    One thing that made Obama seem like an outsider was eight years of Bush and the incredible unpopularity of the Iraq War and neoconservative foreign policy in general. Many people forget now how polarized America was over the Iraq War and how partisan it was. Obama’s seemingly dovish positions...

    Back on the topic of Vivek, he’s been doing some really good work taking the press to task for consistent deceit: This is the sort of thing everybody needs to see. We’re doomed if people don’t accept that the mainstream media are complete liars. Even without getting into office, Vivek’s...

    I see a lot of problems with a death tax replaces other taxes. One of the tax works, the other if the tax doesn’t work. If the tax doesn’t work, that’s simple. People use all kinds of methods to circumvent paying the tax and so it generates no revenue - except for accidents or people who aren’t...
