    I voted for ‎Nikki Haley because I think she would be a good President. Trump scares me because I think he will seek revenge on those who spoke against him. I am sort of worried that he would force Ukraine to give up too much to Russia to end the war. Although Biden is too old I don't believe of the policies of his, or this New Democratic Party. I think they have gone completely nuts in their thinking. Especially concerning their immigration and their criminal policies. They are already ruining America. They continue to ruin it with pushing CRT in schools and college. It does nothing but cause hate for Whites and our country. I don't believe passing kids in school that can't even do the basic three R's. I don't believe in allowing transgenders to use women's bathrooms, lockers or participate in women's sports. I don't believe in paying off student loans unless your going to keep doing it and give some compensation to those before that paid their loan off. I don't believe in not even going after or charging criminals who take less than a thousand dollars' worth of goods. Their policies on that and criminals, and immigration has turned America into one of the Unsafest countries on the planet. They're pitting Americans against each other. I could never vote Bue with these New Democratic policies.

    For you that don't think their policies are crazy, I only ask you to watch this video. It's a few years old and hasn't passed yet but 44 Democrats voted for it. I know your not goingg to believe it, I didn't, but if you go on the internet and look it up, you'll find it. Then look who Pelosi defends. One of if not the worst gangs in America. She isn't alone. Liberal news defended them. https://www.foxnews.com/.../tucker-carlson-criminals...

    I have been one of Trump's biggest supporters, but I also see his weaknesses. I think he was done dirty all through his Presidency which caused a lot of his problems he is in now. I want Haley because I think she would make a good President. But if it comes down to Trump or the Democratic Party, no matter who they run, I could not vote Democratic with their crazy, stupid policies. They have gone completely nuts in their thinking This country is showing it.

    You and I largely agree. I voted for Haley and will if she's on the ballot.
    If it does come down to biden/trump I will vote against biden, just as I did in 2020.

    I hope Trump seeks revenge on the likes of Smith, Garland, Willis, James, Bragg, etc.

    It's time they got a taste of their own medicine.

    It's only California that has actual formal policies toward letting thieves skate for stealing under a certain dollar value, innit?

    I will state this about something that I find simply unfathomable: that any military personnel, past or present, would even consider supporting DFT and his party.

    His comments about McCain? Ok by you huh? Very doubtful I expect.

    Leadership is damn well about values and character and DFT has both of these, but on the completely wrong side of anyone with any self-respect would follow.

    Would you work for DFT? Be one of his yes men? The military affords individuals more self respect than this c does.

    Many of you will rue the day should he attain the White House again.

    I just about guarantee that should he attain it this November it will be the absolute end of the administrative state, and his alternative will be far worse. We see it already with RvW being overturned and frozen babies counted as people.

    Fools....

    Democrats take note!

    I agree on immigration - too easy to get asylum. And criminal policies, but are the latter Federal? There should always be a consequence for doing the wrong thing - but also social issues need to be examined at their core. Parenting, work availability, education, etc.


    I think the feds should stay out of CRT and Trans issues. Let it be decided locally, even down to the individual sports associations, school districts etc.

    Of course there's a lot more to it than these issues, which is the problem. Crt and Trans are tiny things.

    Which is precisely why he mustn't get in. Trump's number one job will be staying in power forever, number two job revenge; number three job the Presidency.

    I'm sure this doesn't apply to you specifically, but Trump and the worst of his deplorable flock have a unique symbiosis. You only need to look at their post history to see what he is thinking.

    I confess I edited my post. I wouldn't want to offend you. You might be sensitive...so I'll let you decide how close you are to Trump's thinking.

    I don't care if you lie on me. In fact, I welcome it. It just proves what you people really are.

    It is the Republicans that have gone crazy and extreme. They've kicked out most of their moderates and labeled them RINOs, leaving only right-wing extremists in their wake. The Democratic party keeps their extremists like AOC and her 'squad' in a corner so the rest can govern like adults.

    And nothing pits Americans against each other more than Trump calling the other side 'the enemy.' And it's not just him. I listen to conservative talk-radio and hear the same type of language spreading their hate over the airwaves. And have you been to The Donald website? Talk about a cesspool of hate.

    You've intrigued me sir. How would Trump get rid of the administrative state and what do you imagine would replace it that would be worse?

    Trump has a lot of faults I agree which is why I just voted for Haley. But like I said, I would vote for Trump if he gets nominated because of the things I hate that the New Democratic Party has done and continue to do. America is the only thing Trump loves besides his self. His policies when President is why he has so many followers. He completely turned around Obama's mess and had one of the best economies this country ever saw, up to the virus hitting us. His foreign policies was also much better than Obama's and it looks like Biden's too. Democrats do things for votes, not because it's the right thing to do. This country is flooded with crime and Biden's immigration policy will only make it worse. This is not the same Party my Father and five sibling belonged to for decades.

    Lets look at trump's and Obama's record with the military.


    What the massive US military budget pays for
    www.click2houston.com/news/politics/what-the...
    When President Donald Trump signed the $1.3 trillion omnibus spending bill on Friday, he approved what his administration calls the largest military budget in US history, $700 billion.( to fix the mess Obama left the military in.

    Overhauls — "availabilities" in Navy parlance — are being canceled or deferred, and when ships do come in they need longer to refit. Every carrier overall for at least three years has run long, and some submarines are out of service for prolonged periods, as much as four years or more. One submarine, the Boise, has lost its diving certification …

    Out of 276 F/A-18 Hornet strike fighters in the Marine Corps inventory, only about 30% are ready to fly, according to statistics provided by the Corps. Similarly, only 42 of 147 heavy-lift CH-53E Super Stallion helicopters are airworthy.

    No but I don't think Biden uses his head. I can't believe he would pull the military out of Afghanistan before he got the civilians out. 13 Marines were killed and hundreds of civilians left behind. He didn't even tell the Afghans he was leaving that day. Maybe if he had they could have put troops on the road to the airport and kept the bomber out of the airport. He went to the union during the strike and edged on the strikers. Trying to build up votes How many jobs will we lose for that blunder?
    abcnews.go.com › US › wireStoryFord CEO says company will rethink where it builds vehicles ...
    Feb 15, 2024 · DETROIT -- Last fall's contentious United Auto Workers' strike changed Ford's relationship with the union to the point where it will “think carefully” about where it builds future. All three got hit hard financially. All three are laying off employees. He and some other states policies on electric cars and coming back on them. The cost to much they don't get the mileage and they break down to much and are expensive to fix. Rental agencies are getting rid of them GM had to buy out most of their Buick dealers because Buick won't buy them. Now I hear Biden is cutting back on his time line when people have to change over.

    People vote more by their pocketbook then character. Trump put a lot more money in people's pocket and kept inflation low.

    I know this sounds over-simplified, but I think a lot of it is simply stupidity - emotionalism to appeal to the low IQ crowds.

    That combined with a hefty dose of self-dishonesty and a philosophical mentality that seems to believe reality can be made into whatever they want it to be, if only everyone "thinks" that way. So perceptions of reality end up mattering more than actual quantifiable reality.

    When confronted with how many of their policies are not logical, they simply avoid thinking about it. Which is not too difficult to do because often it does take some thinking to understand how something does not actually make logical sense.

    This is the most outrageous bill I ever heard anyone come out with. It's a few years old and hasn't passed yet and I hope to hell Democrats never get enough votes to pass it. But 44 Democrats voted for it and Nancy Pelosi commentators on CNN, MSNBC, stuck up for MS-13 and condemned Trump for saying just what they are. MS-13 are among the top 3 worst gangs in the country. Check it out on the Enternet if you don't think it's true. I had to.

    $27 Million for kids born and raised in the US. Just to be clear.

    Under New York’s DREAM Act, Dreamers would be eligible for general awards, performance-based awards or the New York State Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) funds if they meet certain criteria.

    It would allow such individuals to open a New York State 529 family tuition account under the New York State College Tuition Savings Program and be a designated beneficiary on an account if they have a taxpayer identification number.

    The bill’s sponsors argue the DREAM Act transcends moral stances on immigrant status. Dreamers are already educated in the state’s school system, so denying them higher education opportunities once they complete high school is the equivalent of pulling the rug out from under future earners and taxpayers, said Assembly Higher Education Committee Chair Deborah Glick (D-Manhattan).

    Dreamers contribute $115 million to local and state taxes annually, according to the Senate sponsor, Luis Sepúlveda (D-Bronx), and the DREAM Act is estimated to cost $27 million.
