No. The persistent, malignant lying about what he was talking about is deplorable, pointed out about a thousand times, and a simply inexcusable claim that he was ever talking about white supremacists, neo nazis or any other idiotic claim. He was talking about people on both sides of the statue issue. He made his views of white supremacists and neo nazis very clear in that chat, and more than once. To simply ignore those stated claims, from his mouth and in the same statement is deliberate lying.

There are different interpretations when translated. They, and other scriptural content, argue against any establishment of how Catholics view the Pope. Clearly the history of "the Pope" is not one that indicates historical piety or credibility. The Reformation was the result of people revolting to capitalizing the papal position.

No. The country does does not deserve that. But....This silly indictment a week from prosecutors seeking fame is a guaranteed strategy to empower him.
-
No I shouldn't. He's in full blown martyr mode, and the more he is prosecuted the more it feeds him. He should be left alone, head into the sunset, and let the rest of the candidates seek the nomination.

I don't give a rat's about Trump, but I think the votes he gets are more votes about the perception of an unfair, biased application of our legal system than any endorsement of him. Regarding the other stuff in your post, if you're not familiar with the FAA nominee, look up "Phil Washington Senate Hearings." Completely incompetent. Regarding the Sect of Trans., he is viewed as a fool by FAA employees and the airlines. Spent a lot of money and wasted a lot of time changing names to de-gender various things, but has achieved nothing.

Examples of what? If you are asking for examples of untruths, there are scores, with repeated weekly additions. The man seems to suffer from confabulation, which is closely related to dementia related memory loss. Either way, the guy if off his rocker.

There is no excuse, but there is a reason, and the reason is a silly attempt to appease the less moderate in his party. Useless and embarrassing VP. Comedic Press Secretary. Idiotic nomination for FAA Administrator who couldn't get through Senate hearings. Smug goof as Sect. of Transportation. There's more. I just don't want to spend the time.
-
Couldn't agree more. His Admin was chaotic and he will not get the best talent ever again. I have no problem with his policy views, but the staff is just as important as the President.

Youngkin for president
sherpa replied to Joe Ferguson forever's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Your question is rhetorical, but I think such experience is invaluable. It takes a long time to understand the nuance of that issue, and dealing with the immediate issues re China, a lunatic in North Korea and what I think is incredibly important to be prepared for is an Israeli strike to prevent Iran from posing a nuclear threat. That issue is on the relatively near horizon. What gives me confidence is that I think the Republicans have a much deeper bench, and Younkin or any other candidate ex Trump would be able to access that. It is my opinion that Trump so toxic that any administration run by him would be unable to attract the best possible people. I think it is extremely important to be able to gather the best possible cabinet and staff. -
Youngkin for president

I like him a lot, but think he needs a bit more on his resume, so maybe in a subsequent election. I think governor is the best qualification for president, but he has nothing regarding foreign policy. Nikki Haley has both. Whatever he does after his gov term will tell. -
Vivek Ramaswamy for president 2024?
sherpa replied to JaCrispy's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Ya. Kind of like the 1968 Buffalo Bills. -
"Going forward."

"Having said that." (We know. We just heard you say that). Starting a sentence with "So."

Redistribution is not the most important issue. Who determines the redistribution is. Look at the "happiest" nations of 2023. !. Finland 2. Denmark 3. Iceland 4. Israel 5. Netherlands 6. Sweden 7. Norway 8. Switzerland See a trend there? See the obvious? It is obvious that countries that have a higher degree of homogeneous populations are perceived as "happier." The US is incredibly non homogeneous and people don't like decisions about where the money goes being made by people they don't like, ie.,a despised Congress. Look at the incredible amount of success that US religious charity has enjoyed. Far more effective than gov programs Know why? Because it's decided to be targeted at known destinations. Humans, especially Americans, are remarkably generous at redistribution. They just can't stand that redistribution being decided by others, so when they lose the ability to decide, they oppose it. -

The picture was in response to cluster bombs being used as war criminal evidence. It was evidence of the US arming planes with them, so the caution was to be careful what you condemn.\ Never a Trump fan, Never voted for him and won't. Still.....He sure is better than Biden/Harris, an alarming and incompetent team. -

Read the parable of the weeds. According to Jesus, it is foolish to allow man to judge others. Not good at it and bound to make mistakes. Not in our lane. -
What? The plan to get the US out was in place, with other options if things changed. What he did was disgraceful, incredibly stupid, and then lied about.

Game Day Thread? Bills @ Steelers 8/19
sherpa replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall
Simply pathetic. -
They don't, unless they achieve air superiority, and there is no current path to that now. The F-16 is not going to provide that. It will take years for that to become a change maker. This thing is a body grinding stalemate. The oversold counter offensive isn't going that well, and it takes multiples more munitions to be offensive rather than defensive.
