Democrats don’t want Trump to be President again..

Republicans don’t want Trump to be President again…

The World Economic Forum doesn’t want Trump to be President again…

NATO doesn’t want Trump to be President again…

The warmongering Military Industrial Complex doesn’t want Trump to be President again…

Globalists don’t want Trump to be President again…

The Mainstream Media doesn’t want Trump to be President again…

Which is EXACTLY WHY Donald J. Trump must be President again!

@DCPatriot


Yeah,ALL of that!

PLUS,he is the ONLY candidate that will not start his re-election campaign the same day he would get sworn in. This means he won't have to kiss ANYONE's ass to make sure he gets re-elected.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

Key word there is "Purposefully", buddy boy!

What we term "opinions" the crybaby @Hoodat calls "LYING".

He even got chastised by our own "Seventh Floor" for it.  More than once...

When thread after thread after thread is bullshit in the OP, That's lying. That's defamation.
More than that, it's just plain bullshit.

No different than the twitterpated.

Like I said, there is a responsibility toward the news here, and we rely upon the veracity thereof.
In that, I stand firmly with @Hoodat

Well, it appears, at least where we find ourselves now, the ideal situation would be a Biden presidency with a strong opposition republican Congress willing to assert its powers under the constitution

That probably raises some eyebrows, but there is a reason for my statement. A Biden presidency with a Democrat  Congress is a disaster.. But, a Trump presidency with the Republican Congress would put a lot of congressional Republicans under pressure to go along with Donald Trump’s spending plans or risk being  primaried by his base.

Donald Trump presidency with a Democrat controlled Congress? Katie bar the door.

I probably will be voting Republican down ticket as it’s unlikely that Donald Trump is going to win the presidency. Polls  taken this early and a presidential campaign many times turned out opposite when the presidential election itself took place

Despite Biden‘s problems, he is going to be tough to beat. And you can count on Donald Trump giving them more ammunition with his unfiltered statements and we’re gonna have lots of his crazy policy proposals that don’t add up and they not reality based in the coming months

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

I'm just not upset with Cruz's endorsement nor do I disavow his conservative creds because of it. It could be that he sees the handwriting on the wall, as most on this site have (myself included), that Trump will be the nominee. And perhaps he wants to try to save down ballot votes and retain the HOR and regain the Senate. Will I vote for him? I don't know. So it could be a futile effort.

Of course, I don't put much weight on endorsements for my vote.

Biden has several advantages that Trump will not. Biden has already raised record amounts of money that will be used to overwhelm the airwaves when it gets closer to election. Trump is also still very unpopular with the electorate and he is not an unknown candidate so he can’t redefine himself. Biden and the Democrats also have a working formula that has worked for them the last three election cycles.

Biden will have the media establishment at his side. Biden also has the advantage of incumbency. The get out the vote machines in many of these inner cities are also advantage Biden

And the Republican party is divided

Biden being the DEM nominee?? Does anyone still honestly believe that is a reality?  No way.  I believe Trump might be able to beat him, but once they run Big Mike, Valerie Jarett, perhaps Holder or someone else, it's game over for Trump -- just as planned.

Yet, he still there beating MAGA and raising record amounts of money

You deny that you constantly called @Right_in_Virginia a "LIAR"???

Get lost....you're looking more than desperate here.

Not in a very very very long time.  Maybe on the second Ukraine thread.  Myst asked me to stop doing it, so I did.  Yet you bring it up now?  In quotes?  Show me the post where I called RiV a  "LIAR"?

And your point is.... ??

He uses it ad nauseum without any citation...so I thought I'd give him a taste of his own bullshit.

I don't use it ad nauseum, and there is no one to cite since it originated in the NA Basic Text.  Key word - Anonymous.

And that money is going to be used to maximum effect come this fall

His latest from his legal team about the president being able to use seal team six to assassinate political rivals is another soundbite for the Democrats

I don't know what you mean by "Seventh Floor,"  I assume that's Management.

I haven't said "Boo!" about that to the poster in question.  I hate doing that, I hate pieing a thread, and I hate locking threads more than I hate bannings and time-outs.

And I was asked.  I wasn't "told" anything.  Embellish much?

If I called you a "Liar", it's because you're an effing Liar.  Your favorite pastime was chasing RIV around the forum accusing her of lying...to the point I had to come out of a long period of lurk-mode just to kick your ass.
