  1. and the same people who wanted to "give it time" three years into the last regime think that it is all Trump's fault less than three months into his term. It goes both ways. Partisan Politics is full of two tired expectations and hypocrisy. Nothing to see here.
  2. No story here. 19 hours is still below average for a Cory Booker rant.
  3. Nope, Putin is terrible, but the other two alternatives are Ukraine get fully taken over or WW3. Do you think that every last Ukrainian soldier being defeated and Russia taking over anyway is a victory? Are you willing to volunteer and join them on the front line? If they answer is no to one or both, then maybe it is time to rethink your stance and stop letting others die for it. I remember when liberals prioritized peace. Most "supporters" for Ukraine are nothing more than virtue signaling and toeing the party line. They only care about looking trendy on social media and conformity, not the soldiers and civilians dying over there.
  4. It's fine if an entire country loses 80-90 percent of their male population to a war, as long as YOU can be an amazing virtue signaling champion by expressing nominal support for Ukraine! You are doing your part just as much as those soldiers because that The little Ukrainian flag sticker on your car bumper is your truth and makes the three year war all worth it, right? That is the progressive way!
  5. Go ahead and keep telling yourself that. It doesn't have to be true, as long as it allows you an excuse to hate those who disagree with you. You are a brave warrior and speaking your truth is your superpower!!!. That is the progressive way!
  6. So overall, your opinions seem reasonable and since you are in Canada, I can understand your viewpoint much better now as Trump has not treated Canada well. IMO, Trump only got in because the democrats held on to Biden way too long despite clear signs of cognitive decline and then managed to pick the one option that was even worse than him once it was too obvious to hide it any further. I mistaking thought that you were a typical US TDS person, my apologies. I am actually moderate leaning conservative and not MAGA. We just went through four years of economic disaster where the lower and middle class are being priced out of day-to-day life. There was partisan division from a President who was clearly on the decline with a media that did nothing but gaslight about everything telling us that BIden was fine, the economy was better than ever, and that freedom of speech was great, but conservative opinions were "just too dangerous." This may be why the leash is a little longer for Trump to me that it may have been in the past. I wanted Haley to get in in the Primaries and would have settled for anyone else, but once Trump got in, I was willing to take that leap. As far as an invasion of Canada, I of course would be 100 percent against it. In addition, 80-90 percent of Americans would also be against it. I do not think that it would happen even if he tried to pull it off. There is constant resistance to Trump overall and many of the Republicans who were against him until Biden and Harris became worse would not stand for it. We also have a 25th amendment in place where a President can be removed if they become a danger or incapacitated, my trust is that out country has enough checks and balances to get rid of him (or anyone else in the future who goes rogue) if things got out of hand. My biggest pet peeve is the media in the US. You have CNN and NBCNews who question and fact check every single thing that Trump does and Fox that worships him. Neither are reasonable ways to stay informed, but al least there is now NewsNation if you want a more balanced take on tv. MAGA and TDS both bother me, but only the TDS crowd has control of the media and shoved it down our throat for eight years. That is why I came off as so fed up. The US will not get less divided and extreme on both sides until the media goes back to being news instead of Media entertainment. I hope that things can mellow out in the next few months and that Canada and the US will be on better terms again.
  7. DEI fell out of favor for the same reason why people don't like the KKK. Most rational people hate racism no matter what race it is against. Here is a good article from a mainstream media source discussing why DEI failed. https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/voices/2024/10/25/dei-university-michigan-ford-lowes/75808534007/
  8. Another display of liberal tolerance from the self admitted troll. This line stopped being cool when the Supreme court overturned the push to allow employee discrimination and internment camps based on an experimental vaccine. It was interesting how quickly the branch covidian/toxic conformity movement disappeared once people realized that they didn't have to be one of the first to challenge it anymore. However, regarding this topic, I do agree with many others that there are a large amount of more likely possibilities than the COVID vaccine for this one.
  9. Next month? I get early voting, but that is a bit much. We wont even know who the Democrat superdelegates are going to hand pick over the people's choice of Bernie Sanders this time for a couple more years. If you think that Trump is destroying the country, you must have been really upset when Biden was in office. He turned the US into everyone's punching bag and punchline while inviting every country to bring their worst of the worst here and calling his own citizens "racists" for questioning it. It is very hard to go lower than that. Your "party of the people" focused solely on court cases and division while running this country into the ground by driving up food and housing to a level that is unsustainable to a majority of the country while keeping us divided and more unsafe than ever. I don't like everything that Trump does, but I will sure as hell give him more than three months to clean up the toxic embarrassing mess that the people ordering the senile figurehead around made between 2021 and 2024. If you cant cope with Trump and want to imagine schizophrenic scenarios, that is your call. If your party over the next four years decides to act like you have chosen to do, you can look forward to four years of Vance between 2028 and 2032.
  10. Must be sad living in fear like that. It is solely due your own self-imposed prison.
  11. If it wasn't TDS, your previous opinion would not have come off like an Alanis Morrisette bitter ex song. If you think that Trump would actually invade Canada, you, and only you have the problem.
  12. So, TDS Then. Do you not realize how played out TDS propaganda is? It is a huge part of why the approval rate of the democrat party and media is at an all time low despite some of Trump's most recent antics. If you were trying to convince me that it wasn't TDS with your post, it was not the most sound strategy. There is not one point in your post that does not scream out stage 4 TDS. Seriously, only someone with an unhealthy obsession and hatred would jump to that conclusion. Get help. No one person whether famous or not should have that much of an impact on your day to day life.
  13. Do you think that Trump is just running his mouth like he often does or do you actually think that there would be a literal invasion of Canada? The answer is the difference between a healthy skepticism of Trump and TDS.
  14. That would be interesting. Sorry Chiefs fans, you may have the last three playoff wins, but you just got Doc'd.
  15. .....and that will be the only way the dems win. They sure as hell do not have any concrete or tangible solution to make things better otherwise. They had four years to be the "party of the people" and the country fell apart because they had nothing more than "B*tch about the other guy" until everyone else including that very same "other guy" suddenly seemed more appealing by the time the election came around. Is Trump much better? Maybe, maybe not. At the very least, Trump got rid of the mass of illegal immigrants brought in as a political statement so that is one thing. Less crime, more resources to go around. Even if nothing else goes well (lets see how much from DOGE actually comes back to the people), that is already better than the last guy. Maybe try something other than frivolous abuse of the court system and vandalizing cars if your party wants credibility again.
