You clearly haven’t paid attention the last few years. There are a couple people on here that think I’m a bleeding heart liberal.

I certainly haven’t given him credit for ending wars, I’ve been on the other side of that argument.
It's fascinating how those in the middle aren't wanted by either side. They'd rather call you a member of their opposition.

Wow. I bet the RINO's in the Senate wouldn't pass this bill though. What a great way to hammer these sanctuary cities/states into doing the right thing.

Florida and Arizona don’t look much better. Glad I’m not trying to sell my house right now.
Florida is terrible, we are glad we are still renting. Housing prices have declined significantly. In Naperville, my next door neighbor sold his house in 10 days last month with multiple offers.

Matt's home has appreciated 50 % from his buying price.

How do I know ? 3 of the 4 homes that touch on his property lines have sold in the past year for high 6 figure offers.

The revolt among relatively normal Republicans (or non-MAGA folks) is well underway.
You are entitled to your opinion but when I read your posts lately I think of the guys on the Titanic playing their violins as the boat sank. You constantly gloat about articles saying far left wing Dems are going to be elected and somehow that makes you feel good. Texas Senator Talarico will be bad for the US but good for his guru Hasan Piker. Barak Obama said elections have consequences and the consequences of a far left Dem Senate and House will be chaos and worse for America. But it is glorious for you?

And I already know your response, it is Trump's/MAGA's fault.

It is odd to wish mayhem on the US. Any D elected will vote as AOC or Bernie wishes or they will not be there long. Those two appear to be the power brokers of the loud loons on their side. Lawless open borders with extreme fraud and inflation will be coming with those votes.

But Orange man is bad, so it is good :oops:

There were normal candidates in the Republican primary. YOU chose this.

I’m just wondering how Talarico - who has been a legislator for like 8 years or so - is a creature of Hasan Piker who I first heard of early this year.

It’s funny, I told them the normies in the right center would revolt against Paxton. They didn’t care. Now they are upset I was correct.

Not sure what to say. Other than there are consequences to not listening, consequences that should have come much much earlier in our elections.

Our US chartered corporations need an enema relieving themselves from their anti-Americanisms.




I am going to add that we should consider having a law that if you are not a US citizen, you are not allowed to have a C-suite position in a US chartered publicly-traded company. That seems a bit harsh, but Foran has no allegiance to the US.

There's so much sentiment in this I think is profoundly beneath you, but I want to focus on the most important takeaway.

Your point seems to be that electing leftist Dems will result in disaster for the country. However, I've lived through something like 24 different Congresses in my life now (or at least parts of them), and America has only become more prosperous. Some of these Congresses were pretty liberal, some awful conservative, some fairly centrist. But in all those years, with different ideologies, America is only better off (quite a bit better off).

I don't think the next election will decide the fate of the nation. I don't even think it will be all that big of a deal in the grand scheme of things. Frankly, I think the GOP having become a party of populist idiocy is a much bigger deal than whether Rs or Ds win the next election (or the last one), and even that isn't going to end America (not having a pro-market party could slow our prosperity growth, which I dislike).

You can "Flight 93" all you want (look up Flight 93 election), but I'm not here for it. It's silliness to me, unreflective of reality.

For those drooling over Rubio, the left will seek to destroy him too. First it was Reagan, then the weak Bushes, and now Trump. They hate anyone who loves America. But, sure, vote for Talarico and Dems.

Exactly. I’ve stated this before. It’s not like the goof lead singer of rock band I refuse to mention didn’t impale an image of W on a microphone at a concert. 43 was an illegitimate President, according to the Left. The young whippersnappers here who obviously don’t know **** are a product of our declining education system.

Non-MAGA Republicans and Independents don’t hate Rubio. For as much as you all throw around TDS, it sure seems like your brains have stopped functioning.

BTW, the defendant in the nordstream pipeline case has stated he acted on official orders from the state (Ukraine), which essentially means they were damaging Germany and didn’t give a crap. Only the worst critical thinkers are still interested in using our tax dollars to support the fraud comedian in charge of Ukraine at this juncture.

Europeans lauded Rubio’s big speech at some NATO deal earlier this year.

I agree that cosmopolitan European lefties hate the American right. But who cares? I don’t.

I don’t even care that they hate Trump. I just happen to agree with them.

The Trumpies can end all of this. Return to normal. Stop being insane. End the circle jerk over a populist game show host whose great Prez accomplishment is enriching himself.
