You are so denuded that you fail to understand or recognize decent posts.

There is a delicious food called Lobster. You can order it fresh and ready to cook, add melted real butter and you have a great Dinner without paying tip and taxes.

Enjoy.
I asked you specifically if gas/grocery prices were high or not. Rather than answer, this is what your brain comes up with.

What a bunch of blathering bull ****! It is the easiest mid-term to predict. It will be a blood bath. Trump is at a high of 32% and a low of 29% favorability. Everyday is worse than the last based upon Trump's actions and words. The generic ballot may favor Democrats by 14%. Yet Talarico having a favorite Drag Queen and not eating meet will save Texas. You guys hang on to Rasmussen stating that Trumps favorability is rising to 45% and the next week to 48%. LMFAO.

We shall see. Conrad Black is a very reputable guy who is not MAGA at all. Dismiss him at your peril.

All hail Trump. I know Stone, you really, really miss Joe like your fellow deranged.

Real Clear Politics is a right wing website. Here’s the current polling in various races and the generic ballot. Comically hideous for the GOP. If anything, polling slightly overestimated Rs in the last midterm btw.

I want to be clear. In every election since 2016, the losing team can point to something that was a legit silver lining. Hillary winning the popular vote in 2016, Rs gaining Senate seats in 2018, Trump/Rs generating what should have been divided government in 2020 (until Trump tanked the Senate runoffs in GA), Dems overperforming in 2022, and Dems barely losing the House in 2024.

There is no silver lining here. It’s going to be an utter bloodbath. Sens Talarico and El Sayed. Rs losing Alaska and Ohio. The House easily Dem. Dems rolling in Gov races.

This is a massacre waiting to happen.

Imagine being so infatuated that you think this video of an old man wincing in fear is some sort of display of power.

I think my favorite part of MAGA is that it traded normal white suburban voters for a grab bag of groups who were Dem leaning but against wokeism (a positive) and generally believed Trump was an economic talisman. The minute they realized Trump is an economic illiterate (tariffs lol) who doesn’t care at all about pricesTrump’s support collapsed.

This isn’t new or Iran either folks. This happened in 2025 post tariffs. In certain Latino heavy precincts, Rs saw a 40-50 point decline in support in the NJ and VA Gov races.

MAGA BELIEVES TRUMP CONQUERED GREENLAND

During the United Nations meeting Tuesday, President Donald Trump signed a deal with Denmark and Greenland that gave us pretty much what we already had.

Trump has been obsessed with annexing Greenland, even threatening to take it by force. While he pretended it was about security, it was clearly about his grander Vladimir Putin-like ambitions to expand the United States, likely influenced by the way that the Mercator Projection map makes Greenland look much bigger than it really is.

“That’s what I feel is psychologically needed for success,” Trump said in January. “Ownership gives you things and elements that you can’t get from just signing a document, that you can have a base.”

Well, brilliant dealmaker that he is, all he got was a signed document. Beyond that, there’s nothing more than what the United States already had.
At the height of the Cold War, the United States had 17 military installations in Greenland—today it has one.
This new agreement allows it to build two more, which is still far less than what the United States was once allowed to have. But for some reason, Trump felt compelled to brag about “building two very major military bases” during his U.N. speech.

He gets very excited about things that have nothing to do with helping improve people’s lives.

The agreement blocks the ability of non-NATO countries from establishing a military presence in Greenland, which isn’t a thing that’s happening anyway.

It also requires Greenland to become a NATO member if it ever gets full independence from Denmark, which okay, cool? But it’s not a thing that can be guaranteed, as becoming a member of NATO requires approval from every other NATO member.

Still, given Trump’s hostility toward NATO, it’s a win for Denmark and Europe to force Trump into acknowledging the alliance as the key framework for Greenland’s security.

That’s how it was before. And now, thanks to this deal, that’s how it will be moving forward.

“After months of threatening our NATO Ally Denmark and disregarding the will of the Greenlandic people, President Trump has reached a ‘deal’ that essentially returns the U.S.-Greenland defense relationship to where it was before,” Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire said.

At least now Trump can shut the hell up about his Greenland obsession.

Steve Deace on X: "Yesterday, Iowa House Republicans were informed by their own pollsters that if you are in a +15 district you’re within the margin for error, if you’re in a +10 district you’re underwater, and that this might end being an even worse midterm environment than 2006. I slept on whether to share this publicly, because I don’t want to cause anyone to black pill. But this morning I ultimately decided the truth should be shared while there is still six weeks left to do something about it for the good of the country. Because if the environment is this bad in my home state, where Trump has been the most popular political figure over the last decade, I can’t imagine where it is everywhere else.

I ate one of the lobster tails last night, with corn from the grill, and the melted butter.

Delicious.

Gas/Egg/ and many other products are cheaper than under Joey, as I have posted previously. Use your brain to attempt to recall those posts.

Reducing inflation from 9 % to 3 % is a mighty sword.
