Left, Right and Center. All things Political. The Political Forum.

I defend more what Trump stands for then the actual person. You make up that narrative and will continue to repeat it likely until the day you die. I have said many times Trump isn't prefect. He makes mistakes like all of us do. Yes he lies like all of us do. Like you lie. I have criticized him many times.
I will tell you what's not normal since you brought it up. You. You aren't normal with your absolute hatred Trump. I would be lying if I said I've never seen some attack a President or person like you do with Trump. The fact is there are a whole bunch just like you who suffer for a mental disorder. TDS is real.

When have you EVER ACTUALLY posted a lie or mistake he made? You are being generic on purpose. Give me an actual example… You can’t even say Trump lies without throwing in we all lie, so you can defend his lies. He makes mistakes like we all do is your way of absolving him.

I told you too many times I don’t hate Trump. I don’t like Trump. I don’t really disagree with his politics. Some of which I commended in this forum. I just don’t associate myself with guys like him. You yourself said he’s an asshole. I don’t like assholes. Apparently, most people that have worked with him feel the same way. These folks all come out and say how horrible he is. Do you think Mike Pence HATES him? Or just can’t stand the man. Why you defend a conman is very perplexing to me.

Only to turn their supporters against Trump in hate filled diatribes and false accusations.



Doesn't that door swing both ways. I think this thread is proof positive of that, don't you?


He may have gotten 86 million with 10 million being stolen


He was quoted as saying he lost by a whisker just the other day. Never mentioned stolen anything.

It may swing both ways. But vastly more egregiously by the Leftist agenda. Without a doubt. Much more hateful and their policies over the past 4 years have created discourse and distrust in the political process.

The one word answer IMO, is Yes.

And I agree. That IS politics. Which side it swings more to, is debatable. Both have plenty of baggage there it seems.

As I have said, the project 25 thing is not cool at all. IMO, a person doesn't just distance themselves from something that terrible, they staunchly reject it and keep doing so throughout. I have not seen that yet. Maybe I will. But until I do, it leads me to conclusions that are just not anything I am for or anything countless American service men and women sacrificed everything for including close family members.

It's like, Don't tell me, show me. If left to draw my own conclusions without truth and actual facts, not something spun from a news outlet, I will do the best I can with what I have to work with which is limited unfortunately. That's my view of things.

"Our Mandate for Leadership has been publicly available for more than a year, but the left decided to train its fire on us only after President Biden’s disastrous debate performance in late June. Since then, MSNBC alone has mentioned “Project 2025” more than 1,500 times."

1500 times.

Over what exactly? Over the output from a DC thinktank (itself just one of many) that publishes its platform every four years. I'm curious, did Rachel Maddow ever mention that - did she ever say, 'You know there was, of course a Project 2021 and will be a Project 2029' or did she let organized torrent of messaging allow people to think that Project 2025 is the one-time culmination of evil forces secretly guided by Donald Trump?

"The truth is, since President Ronald Reagan took office in 1981, The Heritage Foundation has published a new Mandate for Leadership every four years to serve as a stockpile of conservative policy recommendations from which our leaders can pick and choose. Then as now, most reasonable Americans could find some proposals they like and some they don’t like. That’s OK.

We welcome the disagreement because we believe that Americans deserve a real democratic debate on important policy issues, not leaders who are chosen in backroom deals and who run from their records."

Dogs biting mailmen are a greater threat to this country than Project 2025. Ridiculous.

I appreciate the link. I will read all of it today. That said, if Trumps opponent is using this against him, why on earth does he not come out and talk about it and put it to bed? He needs to do that. That's what I would do and you as well most likely.

I get the balancing act he needs to play with various views but I keep waiting for him to reassure me, it's all BS. I sure as hell don't want to hear about it's the last time you will have to vote. What the hell ! And if he didn't mean it that way, tell me. ?Say it ! Hell, shout it.
I want to hear it from Trump, not apologists. Same with the border crap with Harris. Don't dodge it. Tell me the plan and own it. It's last 4 years has been terrible.
Again, I will read this link, but is this Trumps words and quotes? Or the authors? I have no interest in authors. I want to hear it from Trump and Harris. So far, I have heard little from both. Just all the noise I am supposed to hear.

One last thing. When all I hear about is bad stuff from the other sides, that tells me those sides have nothing good to say. Scare me into a vote by bashing the other guy. In my way of thinking that reflects very poorly on the one shouting it. So which side will show me and tell me the truth. Neither one has said, " we are not perfect". Neither one are, so why not admit it. Because it's a sign of weakness? No, telling the truth is a sign of strength

This is exactly why I refuse to watch CNN, Fox, and the many news outlets that are obviously slanted one way or another. I don't. And I have no intention to.

Trump has repeatedly said that he has nothing to do with project25. How many times does he need to say it? 1000 more? 1,000,000 times? There will never be enough times. The MSM are the extension of the democrat party. No one can deny this reality. They will continue to repeat the lie to those willing to still believe these people somehow.

I can't read his mind. On Trump's website he has his agenda 47 laid out. This project25 thing is just a desperate attempt by the Left. It was released 2 years ago. No one cared (pretended to care) until it was obvious Biden was gonna get crushed in November. So they dusted off this conservative paper and tried to attribute it to Trump. The are doing that again with Russia. Surely you see they are just throwing shit at the wall hoping something will stick. That's the truth.

Trump constantly lies. He’ll say one thing and do something else. Never trust a guy that feeds you shit and tells you it’s steak. Trump is the master of the con. He wrote a book on it.

Those 2 sentences show he’s lying. He knows who put the project together but he doesn’t know what it’s about. If he doesn’t know what it’s about THEN HOW THE HELL CAN HE SAY HE DISAGREES WITH IT?

Regan in '81 pushed "it" from Their sponsors and all conservative party's up to him did Their groundwork "projects"

and trump may very well have "no idea what it is" because he cares not too and prefers to play dumb for dummies.

If Trump just plays dumb, he missed his calling should have been an actor. He will be whatever, he thinks will get him votes.

its truly amazing isn't it? So many were going to vote for another term of dementia Joe before he pulled out and now many of those same people are apparently gonna votes for the DEI VP simple because she has a vagina and isn't White. The bar has never been lower. They are addicted to incompetence. Its weird.

I have noticed not one of the TDS sufferers have said one word about the true state of Bidens dimentia. They would vote for him tomorrow if he ran. So it is apparent that someone with even less abilities to lead than Joe would be their representative.

I think the Democrat voters themselves are incapable of rational thought. They’ve become a cult disassociated with the truth. They lie to themselves and then try and project themselves in a public forum. They back up their lies with more lies. The worse part is they believe they are sending a message. Which makes them feel good about themselves by trying to antagonize anyone who does not agree with their false narratives.

Chinese Spy Case Sheds Light on State-Level Security Woes, Intelligence Experts Warn

The latest prosecution could be ’the tip of the iceberg' of Beijing’s influence campaign, experts said, calling for more vigilance and resources.





Linda Sun (R), a former aide to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, and her husband, Chris Hu, exits the federal court in Brooklyn, New York City on Sept. 3, 2024.



The arrest of New York Gov. Kathy Hochul’s former aide Linda Sun this week has shown the vulnerability of state governments in navigating Chinese interference attempts while Beijing is actively targeting them, top intelligence experts say.

Sun worked at the New York State (NYS) government for more than ten years during Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Hochul’s tenures, including as Hochul’s deputy chief of staff. She was arrested and charged on Sept. 3 with violating and conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents
Registration Act, **** fraud, alien smuggling, and money laundering conspiracy. Her husband Chris Hu was also arrested and charged with separate offenses.



Sun, a naturalized U.S. citizen who immigrated from China when she was five, was accused of doing the bidding of four Chinese Consulate officials and two Chinese Communist Party (CCP) agents—including blocking communications between the NYS government and representatives of Taiwan, screening the governors’ messages to keep out references of Taiwan’s official name and human rights atrocities against the Uyghur people, smuggling a Chinese consulate official into a private NYS government conference call, and providing unauthorized invitation letters for Chinese provincial delegates to fraudulently obtain U.S. visas—for monetary and other benefits worth millions of dollars, mostly via her husband’s business.

The couple has pleaded not guilty to the charges, and Sun’s defense lawyer Jarrod Schaeffer said his client was “understandably upset that these charges have been brought.”

Nonetheless, the case has exposed a glaring security problem, according to two intelligence experts who both held a number of senior national security roles in government.

State governments have been “rather naive” about foreign agents, says Dennis Wilder, senior fellow at Georgetown University’s U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues.

“The difficulty with state-level security is this: They don’t have the ability to vet in the kind of detailed way that the U.S. national government does. They don’t have those kinds of resources. They don’t have people to do that kind of in-depth research, and frankly, at the state level, they don’t think necessarily that somebody is going to try to plant an agent within their government,” Wilder said, adding that the emerging cases are making state governments more attentive and more likely to seek assistance from the FBI and others.


Nicholas Eftimiades, senior fellow at the Atlantic Council, also said he believes Sun’s case is “really important” because of this reason, and he called for a “whole-of-nation approach” in responding to the CCP’s activities rather than relying on the embattled FBI.


According to Eftimiades, the vetting of local officials could be as little as a one-off check of a person’s arrest record, while those who have a security clearance in the federal government get vetted every few years.
“In the meantime, your finances are monitored, your social media is monitored, if you get arrested in the country anywhere, that’s flagged. ... There’s nothing equivalent at the state or city levels, and they vary so much,” he said.

One of the main symptoms of the dreaded TDS disease. The person becomes debilitated in thought and reasoning. For example, voting for a leader (president) who is completely incapable of leadership at any level.

Lolol.
If that’s pointed at me, I have asked a very easy question to respond to. No response from any Trump supporters. Only that I must be ill for asking it and Dwight can’t read his mind.

If that was not pointed at me, please feel free to respond.

I won’t hold my breath though. I think we all know the answer and it’s probably best if it gets buried in here so it can go away and not be discussed.

TDS is a pejorative term usually for criticism or negative reactions to Donald Trump that are perceived to be irrational, and have little regard towards Trump's actual policy positions, or actions undertaken by his administration. The term has mainly been used by Trump supporters to discredit criticism of his actions, as a way of reframing the discussion by suggesting that his opponents are incapable of accurately perceiving the world.

This is the actual meaning of TDS. Anyone else telling you differently... 1. Didn't get the joke / 2. Suffers from TDS
Suffering from TDS, the democrat was not able to see past her blind hatred of Trump in order to research topics herself. Instead spent years festering while being fed lies by the majority of media outlets about Russian Collusion as her Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) cripples her mental state


-------------------------------------------------

TDS, It's a disease that affects some democrats which drives them insane whenever they hear the word "Donald" or "Trump". Disliking Donald Trump for a valid reason is not TDS but going insane whenever hearing his name mentioned is.

Another symptom is trying to turn the word around to target Trump supporters.

Billy: OMG DONALD TRUMP IS SUCH A RACIST HE WANTS TO BUILD A WALL TO KEEP OUT THE MEXICANS AND HE HATES BLACK PEOPLE AND MUSLIMS

Ok Dwight. I don’t want to ruffle everyone’s feathers by asking a question that truly only has one answer.
I’ll drop it, continue to sift through all the lies and BS that are flying all over the place …ok, wait for it… “from both parties” , and try to make up my mind as to what seems to be, the lesser of two evils.
GL.

Honestly. It was not pointed at you. It was a general statement to all TDS hate sufferers. You have my word.

I never do that unless someone comes at me personally.
