Perhaps these people need to share their conflict of interest or “paid promotion” as some of the people on youtube have on their videos when demonstrating a product and talking about them.

In policy, there have been some significant wins. Do you not recognize that?
Of course there have been, but in this echo chamber what good is that? Y'all got that covered. Of course the border should be closed (just to use a simple example), it's ridiculous to think otherwise. I'm not posting for the amount of likes. Believe it or not I don't disagree with everything you post. But it's frankly hard to have a real conversation in here because there is an established tribe that isn't malleable to changing conditions.

Illinitike thinks he’s right. He voted for Trump because he was going to release the Epstein Files! They’ve been released via the admin and Congress. Not the big deal the suckers thought it would be.
You got the first sentence right (besides a minor spelling error). We are making progress! In fact, we agree so much I'm going to put you as my out of office contact when on vacation.

I like Vance, Rubio and DeSantis for 2028. Not sure any Dem is coming from the real center anymore. Both senators in AZ ran as "moderates", at that is what they called themselves, and they are well left of center. (edited)
I don't like them but agreed they will be better than the Dem. I think GOP is cooked for '28 but we shall see, still over 2 years so....

These guys did nothing but ***** and moan for 4 years under Biden. We were losing our country and civil war was near.

Now even a slight criticism is met with slander and dorky nicknames. It’s pretty entertaining.

Funny, the 10 name liar has gone from all-state to state champion and “National Level Jogger”. Seriously unimpressive since no one with this resume challenges 20 year older men to 5k races. Further, said vax-rager thinks this is an impressive resume while demeaning a fellow poster who played in the NFL - now that is truly elite. But to polyname getting a sniff in the NFL (the typical NFL career) is nothing.

Anyway, no need for me to meet Icky since I’ve already met a 3x Olympic champion and 2x mile world record holder Peter Snell - a guy whose accomplishments spoke for themselves. They can also be verified!

I've stated before I have a long time associate who was an All-American XC runner. Great guy. Very successful.

No misspell. Illinitike fits you well. Just deflections. No substance or facts just like a little tike. Facts are that we (the supposed echochamber) don't agree with Trump on everything, nor do we agree with each other about everything. What we do is avoid the misery of your ilk. We aren't joining the company you keep any time soon. You should go on vacation to Iran. I hear it's lovely this time of year and the oil is flowing like water from a Colorado mountain stream to Arizona.

Yes, read up on Peter Snell, a champion on and off the track who later became a US champion in orienteering. Hard to beat someone who once ran a World Record Mile time.

To be fair, the "echo chamber" has been critical of Trump. I won't try to speak for anyone else, but I have been vocal about ...

...how Trump imposed and negotiated tariffs
...his Canada 51st state talk
...him being a repetitive bragart
...him being too patient with the Mullahs(although I semi understand the conundrum)
...him being undisciplined(side fights on X, etc)

I am sure there is more, but these are off the top of my head. This is just stuff I have posted on at one time or another. I think he could be more hawkish on the budget, but there is only so much he can do with a useless congress. I don't need to dwell on the negatives as there are plenty in the media and on here that celebrate when something doesn't go well.

You touched on securing the border which appears simple, but is very impactful to the US in so many ways. If he did nothing but secure the border and remove criminals aliens, he deserves massive credit. Any other policy decisions you like? Doge? Venezuela? Attacking fraud?

He has been pretty aggressive on FP which is good. Peace by strength is a good thing. I would like him to stop talking about Diego Garcia, and just take it from the weak Brits. Maybe he will after the midterms.

Why don't you refute Cynical Publius. How about refuting Scott Pressler? RDS? Robby Starbuck did great work exposing DEI/anti-American worker nonsense at some true American corporations such as Harley-Davidson amongst others. BTW, I also post excellent investigative reporters, including Herridge and Attkisson. Why don't you refute what they say? I'll post what I want to post. You can't even give an appropriate explanation for your posts of distraction. Perhaps, if you actually can read better than a 5th grader, you could make an addition to the Attkisson about paid "experts" discussing subjects on cable news networks and not disclosing their ties to the products in question? Oh and I respond in detail. What have you ever responded with, lightweight? Not much of anything except quick misdirection. Can we see through your ears to the wall on the other side? Let us know.

Stripped down ridiculous DEI stuff, that nonsense has largely abated.

I loved DOGE and hated the follow up to it (part of that is Congress I know). The thing seemed to fizzle out after what appeared to be helpful to the economic health of the country. We don't need measly checks sent out. We are in debt 40 trillion or so, we have completely screwed the younger generations. I thought they were going to TRY to put a dent in it but nothing has changed.

Tip of the iceberg on fraud but that has been positive. Sort of tough to gage if we are being honest, when there's no way of knowing how much is being missed or ignored.

ICE where done the right way (Memphis is a good example, places that are open to help and need it bad). Cities like that need a lot more but gotta start somewhere.

Are you asking for a raise or just some positive affirmation? Fine. You are doing a great job, so we will double your pay! Happy?

@BigWill, my town is bringing back bison. I know you mentioned this as one thing the area can do. We also have major restrictions on population growth, so you should be happy that I do put my $ where my mouth is.

Hey dipshit. Read the post again. Wilson Georges was the state champion I was referring to.

You couldn’t physically accomplish what I have but you once met someone that did. So impressive. lmao

I love the dreamy wistfulness of these press releases. I think what it means in English is if settlers never moved to Colorado life would be much better.

"Bison are widely recognized as a keystone species whose natural grazing patterns help maintain diverse native plant communities, improve soil health, support wildlife habitat and increase grassland resilience, according to the press release. The return of the bison helps move toward restoring ecological processes that once shaped Colorado's Great Plains."

I wonder if liberals ever will say more people in the US is a bad thing for the environment. Certainly not Mandami and the Democrat Socialists.

Physically I could not accomplish what you could since I’m not a scrawny little runner.

I’m plenty satisfied with my athletic and mental accomplishments. I maximized my abilities. Sadly, I lack the elite physical traits of the best athletes. But, hey, I bought NVDA and AMD in early 2020, so I will continue to laugh at ankle biters like you.

Keep lying to yourself. You tried and you failed.

I was a 6’4” 200lb distance runner.

The IHSA 1A triple crown winner this year was even bigger.

You just sucked.

Only red county near Denver leads the way with responsible development. I’ve said often the GOP should lead the way because Dems will not.

The people of Arizona are dependent on the blue states of Colorado and California to provide the most basic need. Not a great place to be. But I’m sure the desalination plant development will go much better than the high speed rail project, and other govt failures.

The Supreme Court decided in 1963 ruled that AZ should get 2.8 million acre ft of Colorado river water. We are not dependent on Colorado or California. I'm glad you now identify as a blue state. Is AOC your favorite?

Colorado is an undeniably blue state, why would I identify it as anything else? It has been for 20+ years. I live in a red county in a blue state.

Arizona had 1.5 million people in 1963. Your ability to live is subsidized by blue states.

I think ICE had a difficult task cleaning up the mess left to them with loons harassing them along the way. If the crazies left them alone, it would be a nothing burger. Other than that, we have plenty to agree on.

The bad ideas from California. No thanks. Between him and Ro it’s ridiculous. Add in the boobs running Seattle and NYC. Too much of this destructive talk is allowed to escape into the atmosphere without the dumbest media, the MSM, checking the nonsense with facts/historical events.
