Ok, not football at all, but it matters, eventually.

I"m assuming that you also believe that Trump was blackmailed with evidence that he paid russian hookers to urinate on him as well. It's obviously true since the CIA, FBI and DOJ all had high ranking officials that stated it in a letter and under oath.

[WTF11]

Seriously???

Have you looked at the current administration? Do me a favor and take a couple of minutes and look at them and their credentials as well as what they think is important. Forget your hatred of Trump and look at his appointees vs the current occupant that position.

Any who advocates for healthier food, exercise for young students (they get none now at school), research into the **** they shoot into our arms without any certification from the FDA (the covid vaccine is still not approved by them), not allowing children under 18 to take life altering puberty blockers and chemical castration drugs then they get my support regardless of who appointed them. Frankly, they should get yours as well.

Yes, seriously. I don't hate Trump, I'm afraid of.him and what he can do with both Senate and House in his pocket and appointing Kennedy to a position for which he.is totally unqualified is a sign of things to come. Kennedy may or may not make.good on his threats to make wholesale withdrawals of vaccines, but if he does and.that includes tetanus then he'll be.killing Americans immediately, if it includes (for example), measles and.polio then maiming will take a little longer but it will happen. Over 100 million adults in the USA and you get these kind of folks las your leaders.😣

Don't care if that's what floats his boat. As long as he wasn't going to appoint any of the ladies (it was ladies, Yes?) to positions in his administration!

Don't disagree with your post but...

These are different times over here. We never have had the federal government attack those that oppose them like they have done the last 15 years or so. Trumps first term largely consisted of the DC apparatus attacking him (both parties and all of the bureaucrats that are appointed or have lifetime jobs) as well as his own party scuttling many of his initiatives. In addition, he had actual generals negotiating with the chinese and leaks and intelligence lapses all over the place. His tax returns even were released. In prior times people would be imprisoned and in the case of the general reaching out to the chinese leader even hung. We've never had an ex president charged much less litigated and his house searched including his wifes panty drawer. Previous presidents have loaded up box trucks of documents when leaving and none of them with the secret service overseeing it. All of trumps paperwork was reviewed and released by them. It was unmitigated lawfare more like russia, china or cuba than a free country. The infamous January 6th "insurrection" was a bunch of red necks going into the capitol. The concept of this rag tag group taking over the country is absurd. The most important item that is never mentioned by "journalists" is that trump is not in charge of the capitol police. That would be nancy pelosi.

Trump's picks reflect 100% loyalty so that a repeat of the second term does not occur. Contrary to what is being portrayed by the media they are at least as competent as the previous outgoing administration. That's not saying much but it's the reality. You have to go outside of DC vermin to get people that will actually make changes. Our country is no longer free and has an uncontrolled federal government. They don't work for us... we work for them and they let us know it every chance they get. It's why 5,000,000 more people voted for Trump. It a polarized evenly split country that is a landslide. It certianly wasn't his charm or lovable personality.

You should very, very much root for the US right now. I suspect more than a few people feel the same way about their country. Failure in ours likely acts as an indicator of what's coming for other "free countries".

Argentina is another case study of when people realize they are working for the government rather than the other way around. It's a fascinating real world case study.

Whether you love, loathe or are ambivalent to Mr Trump he can rightly claim to have a pretty big mandate for change given how the voting went in terms of the college, share of the popular vote and the results in both houses.

Seems like a large enough part of the population wanted the status quo to change.

If he wants agents of change in key roles then no one should be that surprised.

And this is what his decisions on appointment has and will do to the shares of companies that form the backbone of pension funds the world over. As a pensioner, I'd just like to say "thanks a lot Ronald MacDonald".

Your pension fund would be wise to keep your money in the US. Just sayin. As bad as we are I'd be hard pressed to think of anywhere I'd trust my retirement money more. It's a sad state of affairs. It's also why, even if you don't like the US you should not root against us. It's hard to fathom putting your life savings in China, Russia, Japan or even many of the European countries right now. What's much sadder is the loss of a place to go to when you want more freedoms. The US is not everyone's cup of tea but it was always there when you wanted to go someplace with more freedoms (warts and all). That is now largely gone. Our media are propagandists, our government is corrrupt to the core and largely has total control of schools, healthcare and the economy. Once they get digital currency, electric vehicles, control of the health system and education we'll be little different than china

Their tanks were superior and until we developed the spitfire that had air superiority too. Their boats were devastating.

They had about a7 year head start in gearing up for the war too. If the US hadn?t joined the war or if the Germans hadn?t attacked Russia prematurely we would most likely now be speaking a different language - if buts and maybes!

Tom Emmer didn't even know that measles vaccinations in Minnesota were capable of being opted out of, and how they have!

Trump Derangement Syndrome is a thing!
Trump is selecting what appears to be good people to drag the swamp of the corrupt, incompetent, free-spending slimey creatures that live there. RFK wants Americans to be healthy again. He wants a full investigation into the experimental poison covid injections that the FDA wanted to hide from the public for 75 years!! Why would that be? The corruption between Fauci and his wife. The lies to congress about gain-of-function that has a money and paper trail. DEI and associated incompetence has been rampant in the current administration. The weaponised DOJ, FBI and CIA. Let's see what comes out....if the lying corrupt media allow. It will come out, and there corruption exposed you never imagined. That, I 100% guarantee!!
