We have helped a democracy fight off our Number one enemy!Accomplishes both great goals.

Imagine Trump being like Zelensky, and cancelling elections because we are at war. I don’t think the Dems would be talking about that being the right thing to do as a Democracy.

You gave two very vague successes of this war. This war that continues with no end in sight. It’s been a major negative, and a huge waste of $$.

Boy are you an ignorant fool! The one thing Ukraine is most definitely not is a “Democracy”. Democracy has been known to suck for 2400 years.

The USA as a “Republic” held elections during the Civil War, WW1, WW2, Vietnam (the Demoxrat’s War which killed 59000 Americans in contrast to “trumps war” which has killed 18), etc.

Ukraine and the dictator Zelensky has suspended any and all elections. So much for being on the side of freedom!

I wanted to Thank Donald J Trump for sending Rachel through Arizona and California. There were literally waterfalls coming from my roof this AM. Sadly, I had to dismantle my rain capture system at risk of being called elite or some such.

Even more sadly, 275+ people around Phoenix did not live to see it, because they died from heat this year.

Phoenix saves lives. Obviously, you are completely unaware that the cold kills many more people than heat does.

Hopefully when the windmills powering Colorado go kaput in winter people are able to flee to Arizona in order to survive.

And thanks to Phoenix, an incalculable number of elderly people don’t die from slipping on ice and breaking hips, etc.

How many have died in the entire USA from cold exposure this year?

I don’t care about global cold deaths. It’s not relevant.

Was the Biden administration before the Iran conflict?


Are you that stupid or ignorant. Prices came down by end of Biden. You cultist are so out of touch with reality you don’t recall the Covid pandemic Trump left for Biden with its shortage of goods and high prices. Idiots.

Do you get your foreign policy from the 80s?

Obama mocked Mitt Romney for saying Russia was the #1 geopolitical foe.

Turns out Mitt was 100% correct. Russia has caused far more problems in the ensuing 14 or so years than China.

You could make an argument for Iran here as well, but its geographic reach is pretty limited.

Zelensky did not cancel the elections. The Constitution of Ukraine doesn't allow elections to be held during martial law. That was declared by Zelensky and approved by the Ukrainian Parliament.

I don't know why all of this is so hard. Russia could stop fighting tomorrow and Ukraine would also certainly agree to a ceasefire at the current lines (which basically haven't moved so it's not like Russia is advancing). Russia won't do it.

This is Putin's war. 100%. It started as Putin's war, and it remains Putin's war.

The war on Iran has NO successes, continues with no end in sight and is a huge waste of $$, yet you support it. 🤡

Entirely wrong per usual. Martial law has been declared since the Russian invasion (well before any election would have happened, I believe 3 years). It was approved by Ukrainian Parliament.

The US did not hold the 1864 elections in the South btw. Ukraine couldn't hold them in the provinces Putin has attacked btw.

You understand you are being played by charlatans like Keshel and Benny Johnson, right? These people are complete dopes, shills, clowns, etc.

And yet you fall for their schtick. It's unreal. Sucker.

Here's the reality. Let's say Talarico had a breakdown. No one is dumb enough to send him to a facility. They'd treat him somewhere (probably at his home or a hotel outside Texas) that is less likely to draw scrutiny.

They were desperate to sell this story Friday, and then he showed back up Saturday. So now they are going to make something up to try to save face. And you won't hold them accountable.

pretty well it seems. They destroyed our bases , blocked the Strait , have Houthi’s controlling their area , and is bombing Saudi Arabia.

Iran's positioning in the war is bad. Maybe 3-4 months ago Iran had gummed the US up, but basically the Strait is open for Western oil and Iran's economy is in the absolute tank. Things are bad for Iran.

You just can't take getting owned. It's my moral duty to address the reality you want to avoid.

Again, it's OK to just acknowledge that Russia is really bad, and Putin has negatively impacted the entire world with his dumb, failed war. It's really that simple. Not complex at all.

Ukraine had zero interest in fighting a conflict for the survival of its nation. None at all! Putin decided otherwise, and he owns all the bad.

Not hard! Real simple!

If we had a competent President and Sec. of Defense the war would have ended in several weeks and all for the good. Unfortunately we have this clown show and I don't believe they have the smarts to win this war. They will capitulate much like they are urging Ukraine to do. Difference being is that Trump will declare victory and MAGA like BigWill agrees.

It was an alert for joggers to be vigilant.

I don't need luck, I have Board Certified Medical Doctors.

Good luck to yourself.
I’ll take my cardiovascular system that runs 30 miles per week over your atherosclerosis and stent riddled heart.

You didn’t take care of yourself AND you took the death jab? Your clock is definitely ticking. Just ask TJ. I’d spend less time making up stories on the internet if I were you.

Anytime I see a fool correct that the US is a Republic and not a Democracy I immediately understand that they are goofs that believe they know more than they do and they take their clues from RW crap sites, and never studied politics or government. The US as every other democracy is a Democratic Republic. A democracy as we elect our leaders and government, and a republic as those elected leaders vote on the specific laws or bills. A true democracy has every citizen vote directly for every bill or law. That maybe existed in ancient Greece but not since then it is not possible where there are more than a few hundred people.
