I agree. But I noticed MTG caused JB to walk back his statement on SS a couple of levels.

It was a complete lie, most of his voters will stupidly believe it though. I really liked how McCarthy tried to be the adult in the room. Makes Pelosi look like a petulant child from two years ago .

The SOTU is nothing more than political theater. Accomplishes absolutely nothing.

In fairness, she looked that way without the juxtaposition.

Regardless of your political feelings, I wish we could stop this stupid heckling from the crowd. JFC it’s so embarrassing.

Quoting you again. Watched a Gutfeld clip where he said something like, if the guy doing the talking didn't tell any lies he wouldn't get heckling from the crowd. Radical thought.

Talked to someone who has spent time in the room with JB…wow. Unbelievable this guy is running the country.

Don't kid yourself.  He's a figurehead.

I should have put ‘running’ in quotes, I agree.

I'm laughing at humans

"But if you talk to someone who comes from poverty, or someone who’s a person of color, they are going to benefit from the forgiveness program the most because they’re the ones that have to jump through extra financial hoops in order to get where everyone else in the educated country is,” he said -.  

The people of color will benefit more?  Lol.  Fuck this guy.  

I know I'm beating a dead horse but how much more of this racist shit do I have to listen too?  

"His parents, immigrants from Mexico, couldn’t afford to help him pay for college. Enriquez was wait-listed at a state school that had a meteorology program, so he instead enrolled at a more expensive school out of state. He is now pursuing a master’s degree, which he felt he needed to stand out in a competitive industry."

He "felt" he needed....

Well Mr Enriquez, do you know what's funny?  I too couldn't afford school (working class parents), but instead of taking out a student loan, I joined the fucking military.  I flew in combat, got to invade a country, lost a wife or two, lost some people I considered friends, spent most of my life gone or on alert.   Guess what I  didn't have to do?  Ask uncle Biden for a handout.   I have zero sympathy for these clowns.   I really do.  I have none.

Hmmm...  Self deprecating humor, or a lucid remembrance?

I know the liberals don't care because their guys is "mostly doing a great job", but come on...which President is guilty of collusion? 

Chicoms sending millions to Biden family members.

[ClearedHot]

Just confirming I have the facts...Trump will be arrested on Tuesday for giving a check to an adult film star while Biden is celebrated for standing by as millions of dollars were funneled from Chinese firms to all of his relatives.

[brabus]

If this goes down, it will only destroy the people’s confidence in our system that much more. Apparently the liberals really want civil war to happen, because continuing to do shit like this is how that happens. The irony is how poorly that’ll go for them.

That sounds like the plot line to a bad movie.

They can fight with their feelings.  Kind of like the Care Bears.

Nothing to see here.  Cough, Cough.

Imagine if members of Reagan's family were receiving money from the Russians in 1985?  That would have been the crime of the century.

The only people who talk about and wishcast a civil war are on the right.

Law enforcement is not fomenting a civil war. You can’t just “Ooh, look what you made me do” into a civil war.

No, concerned people talk about civil war instead of burying craniums in the sand and ignoring it. Almost half this country (recent poll) says they think a civil war is a very real possibility in the near-ish future. That is frightening we as a country have been sliding that direction. Millions of Americans are just asking insanity to stop, not asking for hard right policies. They just want a relatively middle country. The progressives are heavily leading the charge in making our country as far from the middle as possible. People are fed up with it, and if it can’t be brought back to the middle peacefully, it will be brought back violently. And I very much hope the former happens and not the later.

No one I know left-of-center talks about a civil war 🤷‍♂️

Joe Biden, an old white man and long-time senator is president, and the GOP holds the house. Not seeing some insane liberal agenda washing over us anytime soon.

Not very familiar with antifa are you?

 

Extremes are extreme on both sides. Try not to be so partisan and for once *think* about the other side. Why would so many people be "wish casting" a civil war?

 

If you really think tens or millions of people are so vastly inferior to you and your side, you are a narcissist and a fool.

Everything that is progressive and everything that is ultra-right. Currently the progressives are “out performing” the ultra-right. But neither are good.

It's not Law enforcement here - it's a politically motivated process.

As for hush money, the payoff the threat scenario is played out everyday by wealthy people.  What part of the payoff made it illegal, by the way?  Think about the way this stripper will live from now on, people will yell obscenties at here and spit on her.  Hope if was worth it.

I have to agree with @nsplayr on this one point: We're nowhere near a civil war.  Such a thing would involve a vast majority of the population.  Right now I would argue that 10% or less of the US population composes the highly vocal left and right.  

Civil unrest?  More likely.

If we can elect some leadership that moderate and actually has some form of wisdom in their decision making, we'll be fine.  Our current administration is populated by muppets and morons, which is why we're in the economic, political, social, and international troubles we're in.

And lets not forget who started the first Civil War.
