What Epstein Don said recently regarding Russia and Nato, Do Nothing Don bulling Republican Congress into not securing our borders on a bipartisan Bill, and now Russia with their advanced plans on sending a nuke into space. All the MAGA sheep population really plummeted over the last 2 weeks.

Come back to sleepy Joe, wondering sheep. You dont have to love him, you just want to vote for an administration and not a Draft Dodger dictator.

Funny thing about Trump/MAGA allies are so ridiculously arrogant and violent against their own people (particularly towards the corrupted and depraved left or against the minority groups) behaving as bullies, but once they meet the love of their life, such as Orban and Putin, they immediately switch their roles to become virgin ladies or behaving like bunch of Saint Valentines, asking those Autocrats for hugs and kisses by showing their pinkish naked "tushies" , willing to be sodom*** and fiddled with....Excuse my language, but I could not come up with another way to express what they really are.

The person who sounded the alarm about the Russian threat was House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner, who is Republican. I think it was meant to be an obvious signal to MAGA House retards that Russia is a serious threat to the U.S. and that they should vote for funding Ukraine in its war with Russia.


Beyond that, do you guys even notice that Democrats have been consistently winning in the polls since 2018? The latest being the Democrat who won back the Santos seat in NY earlier this week.

I’m not worried at all about Trump winning. There will always be 30% of the dumbest Republicans voting for Trump. The math doesn’t add up to a Trump win when you factor in rational Republicans and independents who absolutely loath the idea of Trump being president again.

I don’t know who the next president will be, but it definitely won’t be Trump.

GBD, do you have a shit fetish? LOL

I found this statement online from Stuart Stevens who worked with Sen. Mitt Romney (R-Utah) on his 2012 campaign


“ Republicans who are asking why they keep losing elections are like the guy who walks into the ER with a nail in his head, asking why he has a headache.

A party led by a rapist that believes it can fix its problem with women by attacking Taylor Swift, with weird little creeps like Mike Johnson as a public face in Congress, that has no serious policy, that has decided to abandon decades of support for freedom in Europe to back a genocidal dictator, a party that is 85% white in a 59% white country, a party that has decided higher education is a gateway drug to Socialism, that believes public health policy should be set by random freaks on the internet and not doctors, a party that is still fighting cultural wars of gender politics the rest of America ended a decade ago, a party that has replaced American optimism with anger and fear of the future....

Is there really any question why this party is losing?”


There is a lot of truth to what he is saying. The maga morons want to nominate a rapist con man and expect him to win

Why not, right?
The parties just keep serving up shit, so best learn to like it.

Cause while there's a lot of truth in what Steven's says, there's also a lot of SHIT in there too.
Very simplistic thinking, but the part about Trump is pretty accurate.
Hard to understand how Reps went from Reagan to Trump, fucking weird

Not my theory, but sounds about right is this.......and, its not just whites that feel as though the bureaucracy is out of control. Supposed guvmint experts get it wrong a LOT, yet we're all supposed to not trust our lying eyes and go along. It's basically Howard Beale screaming "“I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not going to take this any more!”

Along comes a populist, like Trump........and, the rest is history.

Common sense has become rare as hens teeth........anyway, best theory I've heard so far.

Gen Pop stats say 68% of us are + or - 1 standard deviation from peak of the norm bell curve.
Which means, 20% on either side are crazy as loons.
Unfortunately, the loons are driving this clown car into a ditch.

Why do so many not like Biden?
He was supposed to be the normal adult in the room bringing us back to center equilibrium.
But instead, he betrayed the center for the Prog wing and now stands at lower approval rating than Trump.

Obama was right when he said that Joe can fuck shit up........didnt have to be this way, fucking sad idiot should be twenty points ahead of Trump..........shit lol

"Hard to understand how Reps went from Reagan to Trump, fucking weird"

See that is the real problem with Rs, they have no clue what went so wrong with their party, and they are still pushing their ways to the bottomless pit. If this is the way they are heading, the only choice they have is suicide. What Trump did was to expose, amplify and aggravate the ugliness that sits at the bottom of this party for a long time.

Only 22 senators out of 49 voted for Ukraine aid package, and now House Rs are saying they won't vote for it because it lacks the border security bill, right after they voted down bipartisan border bill.

This party is rotten to the core, the only way for Rs to survive at this point is stop being a party of White Privileged and become a party that is willing to accept multicultural Democracy, and do actually something that the most people want, such as federal protection of abortion or more fundamental gun safety regulations (banning assault weapons).

There is need to work hard to see the writing on the wall.

I think Haley would be more difficult for a Democrat to beat because she appears to be more reasonable/less batshit crazy than Trump.

But even the allegations against Joe and Hunter Biden have vaporized into thin air due to the indictment (by Trump's special prosecutor) of the key witness who made the allegations against them. There is no way the impeachment of Biden will proceed from here. It should have never been brought in the first place.


Republicans are consistently fucking up, looking completely incompetent and dishonest. It would be great if Joe would allow a better candidate to run for president, but if he continues to run, he will win in this environment.

I believe Michael Turner's warning against Russian security threat and his attempt to declassify the information is his way of alert public about the danger US, West and the rest of Democratic countries are facing from Russia, and to push the House in order to pass Ukraine aid bill. Excellent way to smash MAGA opposition to the bill.

Do you just repeat what you're told?

You do realize that the economy is doing quite well, unemployment is at historical lows, and the stock market (which is Trump's gauge of a good economy) has reached its highest level ever.

Are you going to also allege that Aleksei Navalny died of natural causes?



When are you Republicans going to wake up? Continuing to put your faith in a loser/criminal/traitor and coddling the enemy. What a disgraceful joke you've become.

@mildlyamusting
Do you just repeat what you're told?

I will give you we have a good stock market, but not really anything that Joe has done. The market is just glad we seem to be having a 'soft landing' not the horrendous crash some folks believed. But we are NOT out of the woods yet.

I posted this on another blog. I am getting tired of Dems posting how amazing job growth is under Joey. Here is what I posted.

Trump had the lowest unemployment numbers for all demographics in decades, and inflation below 2%.

Covid hit and jobs were "lost" although not really. Rather mostly blue state governors decided what was 'essential' business and what was not, often arbitrarily. Jobs came back when Covid restrictions were lifted and Joe and Dems claim those jobs......I bet they claim responsibility for the sun when it rises every day.......

If you look at the jobs growth trends under Trump, if Covid hadn't hit and Biden HADN'T been elected, we would be well-ahead of Joe's current jobs numbers and they wouldn't have been substantially government jobs in the mix.

Credit card debt is at an all time high.

Mortgage rates are double what they were under Trump.

Inflation growth rate is now not quite what it was under Trump. I have posted these numbers multiple times but people on the left just don't get it.

2020 1.4%
2021 7.0%
2022 6.5%
2023 3.4%

If you take the compounding effect of the 3 years under Biden. you see a total of 17.8%. So, we need to have 18% deflation to get back to where we were under Trump.

In January, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers increased 0.3 percent, seasonally adjusted, and rose 3.1 percent over the last 12 months, not seasonally adjusted. The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.4 percent in January (SA); up 3.9 percent over the year (NSA).

So inflation is still running way ahead of the Trump years, and appears to be edging back up. We just saw the Consumer Spending numbers for January. We are ever so slowly going to feel the effects of that huge credit card debt in this country.

But, hey, elect some more Democrats, since it is all good. (just ask them)....LOL

The border security is needed (I wish House R passed the bi-partisan border security bill), but we still need controlled immigration. If we stop the flow completely, we end up one of those European countries with more older generations with no younger ones at the bottom. That will be a real tragedy; Look at this video clip.

I must say Jazz's real concern has nothing to do with our economics, it is always something else that is lurking within him that he doesn't want to disclose, but we can see it CLEARLY. All he has to do is to dig up what is at the bottom of his mind, and to recognize what it is all by himself. It is purely a moral matter.

@jazz

It really is difficult to take people seriously when they don't take all factors into account.

Do you think it was magic that we are experiencing a soft landing? It's the actions taken by the Biden administration and the Federal Reserve that saved our economy from a recession.

The precipitous increase in interest rates curbed inflation, but that also increases interest rates for mortgages. They are related. You can't have one without the other.

Comparing the pre-Covid Trump economy to post-Covid Biden economy is just stupid. How about assess Biden's performance compare all countries post-Covid; we are doing much, much better than any other country in terms of economic performance and curbing inflation. That's how you can be intellectually honest.

Tell me exactly what Biden has actually done to fix the economy?

Open border that is costing billions across the country to feed and house the illegal immigrants.

Throttling of LNG production?

The Fed has raised interest rates in an attempt to fix things and that has helped keep the landing softer.....but they would have done that no matter who is the President.

Our economy is pretty resilient and businesses that were shut down have clawed their way back. I give the credit to the businesses, not anything the administration has actually done. They have bounced back in spite of additional regulations, flooding of the border, transportation costs driven up by government regulation, etc.

We have historically outperformed our G7 counterparts, so it is no wonder we are outperforming them now..

Yes, we need immigration as our birth rate is too low, but we need to add people who can positively contribute to our economy, and we need to have some idea whether they are criminals, gang members, illegal substance people, etc.

I see no real economic push by the administration OTHER than the Fed boosting interest rates that is contributing to the economy. I don't see a push for Black Economic Development Zones, lowering of taxes, removal of government red tape for infrastructure and development.

many of the jobs gained are people coming back to work from covid layoffs.
it goes both ways

the money spent during covid was a significant amount - it may have been working or it may only have delayed the inevitable.


immigrants - like i said earlier, pay mexico to set up/run a center for us asylum seekers so we can vet the immigrants before physically entering the country.

So, to prove Biden is doing a great job, you post from a Progressive site that would never find anything wrong with a Progressive Agenda

Damn, I coulda posted that same site to show all the things that Biden did that DON'T work at all to help the economy............and, yes......economies typically work better WITHOUT all the tinkering from BOTH the LEFT and the RIGHT lol

#1 The historic rollout of the vax program built on the foundation that came before, hard to take credit for that. The ARP was unneeded Pork Barrel Politics, total crap. AND, both parties love giving away money to keep the rabble quiet, fucking "child tax credit" and expanded unemployment benefits. Why do we need that last one if the economy has such low unemployment?

#2 US Port bottleneck are almost ALWAYS due to Joe's best buddies, the Unions, and their efforts to keep getting paid while stifling productivity improvements.......guess he must've fucked them over

#3 Tapping the Strat Pet Reserve while putting the kibosh on actual production lol. AND, do not quote your bullshit about how much drilling Joe's allowed. Everybody knows fossil fuel is the bogie that Biden's targeting. In spite of his garbage regs, the industry just keeps kicking ass. The latest is his attempt to close down LNG shipping to Europe..........that should go over great during a war

#4 Cracking down on grocery pricing............fucking You are fucking kidding on this one,right?

#5 Reducing Health Costs by giving more free shit away to seniors and hobbling the very industry that produces the break-throughs...........can't make this shit up.............unless you're a Socialist

If you want to discount the numbers of people returning back to work, how about the unemployment rate being at historic lows?

Also, illegal immigration appears to be a big problem, but if it were such a critical issue, you'd think Republicans would pass THEIR OWN BILL on immigration. But they decided to not deal with the problem to help loser Trump maintain a key talking point for the election. Yet another example that Republicans don't really give a shit about this country. Party politics over everything else.


If Democrats had a chance to legalize abortion now, do you think they'd wait until after the election because it's a key talking point for them? Of course not.

@Goebbels

Yes, I'm guilty of referring people to clearly partisan arguments, but I'm also being thrown obvious partisan arguments from the other side.

It's not like Biden gave billionaires and millionaires a huge tax cut and claimed that would help the economy, which it clearly doesn't. BBB injected the country with new funding and prevented job losses in the construction segment that would have been caused by rising interest rates.

Talking economics with you is like arm wrestling with a quadraplegic that has ALS.
It's unfair to you and an embarrassment to both of us.

EVERY Federal government give away injects money into the economy..........at the expense of future generations.

Trump $8 Trillion
Biden.........will likely be higher but cost is unknown due to faulty measurement by CBO and back-end loading

Everybody was up in arms about hitting $20 Trillion back in Obama years.
Now at $34 Trillion and going up fast............

EVEN if you stole all the wealth of every billionaire and millionaire..........ALL of it
That would cover the guvmint tab for about 10 months.

Nothing wrong with tax receipts, it's ALL about the spending above and beyond what they collect.
