The MAGA GOP is so far out in crazy land they will destroy the US just to feel like they are "right" about everything and "own the libs". They don't like the US constitution keeping them in line. They think they can act like power mongers, by creating and exacerbating problems when they are not the majority political party in charge, just so they can claim credit and say, "Dems bad, they ruin gub'mint and we are the only ones who can fix it!"

Remember folks, these are the same "Americans" that hold Trump up as their ideal leader. A man who has never done a true hard days work in his life, nor ever did a working class job. Is as corrupt as anyone can be, and blatantly behaves like he wants to be able to RULE America, not LEAD it. I can't say enough how DONE I am with the GOP. The party of obstructionist, insurrectionist, fascist, autocratic, corrupt, greedy, power and money hungry (enter expletives here).

The world is watching: this is the last chance to avoid total MAGA surrender. If they fail, it will haunt the MAGA for generations.

T-90 going through some things. I'm sure it's all good. Russia must have plenty of T-90s, right guys?

I thought the same about Pelosi as well for years.

Not according to all the polls.

Nikki or Nancy? Or maybe Marla?

Tick tock, Russian assets.

Not according to all the polls.

So Trump is going to save Putin's assets? Guess Putin will lend him some to pay off his multi-million dollar sexual abuse judgments...the ones he keeps losing, then slandering again, then losing again...

Republicans with common sense will block that stupidity..

Afraid those running US House need a border security plan, given hundreds of terrorists on the FBI watchlist known to have recently entered and are still pouring in.

Seems Senate not taking above seriously, nothing's changed, only time has passed and risks to all have increased.

I hope so.

Well he really wants to give aid to Israel, so…

Well he really wants to give aid to Israel, so…

But he wants to secure the border more, so DOA

Our friends in MAGA-world just ought to drop the pretense - they aren't fooling anyone, except maybe themselves...

Like their Great Orange Apostle, they do not believe in democracy or the Constitution - they want a criminal autocracy where the minority rule in perpetuity - and basic freedoms outlined in the Bill of Rights are suspended...as we see in Russia today...

It's not surprising you see a mind-meld between the paid Russian posters here and our MAGA-friends...

The "maskirovka" ain't fooling anyone...

Our friends in MAGA-world just ought to drop the pretense - they aren't fooling anyone,

Not trying to fool anyone.

Like their Great Orange Apostle, they do not believe in democracy or the Constitution -

We do, that’s why we don’t care what the man says, his right, he can criticize anyone he wants and vice versa.

they want a criminal autocracy where the minority rule in perpetuity - and basic freedoms outlined in the Bill of Rights are suspended...as we see in Russia today...

Well, that’s what the left is doing.

It's not surprising you see a mind-meld between the paid Russian posters here and our MAGA-friends...

We aren’t the ones involved in war so….

The "maskirovka" ain't fooling anyone...

Biden sure isn’t.

That because you're being played for a fool...and don't even realize it...

We do

Hmmm....

“A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution,” Trump wrote."

Projection...

What?

Biden sure isn’t.

You and your Russian comrades sure aren't...

No he doesn’t. None of the MAGAs want to secure the border.

But if he wants Israel aid, time to write a big fat cheque to Ukraine.

Hardly.

Hmmm....

Say the people that support going behind Congress to make a faulty deal with Iran.

You and your Russian comrades sure aren't.

No Russian comrades, that’s Biden’s department of appeasement.

-8 ( +1 / -9 )

No he doesn’t. None of the MAGAs want to secure the border.

Of course we do and I will say it again, you’re not American, I’m from a border state, you have a son idea what you are talking about.

But if he wants Israel aid, time to write a big fat cheque to Ukraine.

As our biggest ally in the ME, absolutely.

The defense industry will get the money.

And we're supposed to be ashamed of this or something? No better way to check that the funds are used appropriately than if they are spent in the US...

We (those of us on this board who are US citizens) ARE the US defense industry and they are us. We do a pretty good job of keeping ourselves safe from foreign attack, just need to get savvier about the less-direct asymmetrical methods employed by our weaker enemies.

It's 30 countries and time is critical. Why not the US not abdicate its responsibility in the time being?

They are doing plenty, as are we. It takes a village, as we would say in my day, or 'teamwork makes the dream work' as these Zillennials would say, probably.

As an American, how will they make Johnson and the House say, yes? Waiting for a funny rebuttal.

It must be hard, humiliating too...

How so?

Which has nothing to do with Trump saying he'd suspend the Constitution...trapped again...

The Dems did so with Trump, so were Trump to do the same thing, what's the panic?

Says the guy that loves Comrade Carlson....ROFL...

Yup, proud of it.

Yes, the world is watching. Give that money to fine people in Africa or elsewhere as opposed to a proxy war. Try to do something decent for a change.

Europe agreed to $50bn aid just last week in case you missed it.

Good news right?
