If Trump gets another term (hopefully not), will anyone here be wearing this shirt in 2024?

If she’s running against Pence, I could see her winning the election in a landslide. I think that most Americans would rather have a Democratic-Socialist than someone who wants a theocracy.

That's why I think they are paid posters. If I see an anti Trump thread I don't like, I don't post in it 9 times out of 10 but these people come out posting like a swarm of flies on dogshi$. And their comments are often similar...(rent free in someone's head, blah, blah). I stand by my paid poster position.

Well in any DEBATE there are at least two sides...so the only thing that's telling about taking a side is that you are willing to learn about the subject and commit...sitting it out is best (independent) if you cannot comprehend or commit....it's cowardly.
I have more respect for those whom I disagree than the cowards....at least they are willing to commit and go toe to toe.


...And no there wasn't a compliment in my previous comment but the "independent" took it as such due to not being able to even comprehend my comment.

She is getting attention because folks one the right and Fox News have insisted on making her a star. She is literally one of the 50 least powerful person in Congress. But everything she does gets constant coverage- that is where he power base is. She is very similar to Trump in this respect- they say, tweet or do something goofy- the world stops so the 24 hour news cycle can go a flutter and more capable people are ignored.


I will say its also humorous how Nancy Pelosi went from the greatest threat to our existence to a footnote.

Haven't watched the whole thing yet but it's interesting.
I watched the introduction and that was enough for me to go no further.

People watch her for the same reason they slow down on the expressway to see the car accident.

Not only will Mr. Trump win, it will be an over the top win. There isn't one leftist that can beat him.
The crazies keep stabbing themselves with the stupid knife.
I have never seen so many whackos in one party....ever. It's like the ass-ilum door was left open and the leftists escaped. What is more shocking is the people that think these leftists are normal.

The 24/7 obsession and constant media coverage also helps.....
