Stop following the Obama messaging of "when they go low, we go high". Republicans have stopped with the pretense and decorum years ago. As much as I hate to say it but if Democrats want to win, they need to be willing to get dirty.
This is how I've thought of the Dems the last few years. They just don't understand the game that's being played.
This is really strange. The Prime Minister of Canada will meet with President of the United States Donald Trump.
All the blather from OF'ers I thought the PM would be visiting China or France, one of the "good" guys.
Instead the PM is heading to the White House the center of nest of vipers
This is really strange. The Prime Minister of Canada will meet with President of the United States Donald Trump. I thought Canada hated Trump? I thought it was all chaos?
Really weird. All the blather from OF'ers I thought the PM would be visiting China or France, one of the "good" guys.

. The PM is a brave soul. Doesn't he fear he will be carried off to a waiting plane and whisked off to El Salvador?
Thank you for raising this. Obama was one of the most talented politicians I've seen; he also oversaw extrajudicial drone killings on a scale that would've had people marching in the street had those orders been given by anyone else (imo). The Affordable Care Act was an amazing achievement; it also could and should have been much more muscular, given the political capital required to pass it. He took several years to repeal Don't Ask Don't Tell, didn't originally support gay marraige, etc. etc. etc.
The list is depressingly long. He was extremely militaristic, and facilitated a number of highly damaging, neoliberal-inspired "operations" on his watch. They included Libya (2011), and the U.S. sponsored coup in Ukraine in 2014, a huge catalyst for Russia's subsequent actions, which obviously resonate loudly today. He also chose policies in the Middle East that are directly related to much of the instability in the region today, and his record in Iraq and Afghanistan are also highly dubious.
Orwell himself wouldn't believe it if he were told that Obama had won a Nobel Peace Prize.
There were many terrible domestic policies as well. It was on his watch that the TBTF banks were bailed out after the 2008 crisis, creating tremendous moral hazard, and widening the wealth gap significantly. The ensuing economic policies then set the stage for where the U.S. is today.
Etc., etc., etc.

Canadian Army in Chaos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just want Trump to answer one question while on live TV. Name the 10 commandments.
As a big Obama fan (I took my daughters to the rallies and my oldest got to shake his hand), I was disappointed by some of the same results (without agreeing completely with your analysis. For example, if he had stood up for Crimea, things might be different in Ukraine now, but we almost might have been in a war earlier.)
Regardless, there is simply no comparison between prior administrations and Trump. Imagine if Obama had issued his own bitcoin trading floor and written executive orders to have no oversight, or arrested a judge, or used the DOJ to investigate his opponents, etc, etc? Republicans would have rightfully gone nuts. What happened to states rights, less federal government? From where I sit, it looks like freedom is only for straight, white, evangelicals.
Why stop at Obama (although for some reason Obama pisses off Republicans alot)? Why not Reagan and Clinton? Keep going, there're many obvious failures.
It is intellectually dishonest to not acknowledge that Trump is acting unconstitutional (illegally) in a manner that this country has likely never seen, outside of a few extremes inacted during the civil war and WWII.
It's like his supporters are afraid to acknowledge any of Trump's failings. Any "what about.." are ludicrous.

More than once, President of the United States Donald J Trump has stated immigration is wonderful. Just follow the legal process that all other countries in the world enforce.
Mr. Pdxleaf, approx. 7 million illegals crossed border 2020-2024. Tell us all how we go back and verify the identities and criminal pasts of the 7 million. Let say only 10% are criminals. 700,000 on American streets. Let us say 1%. 70,000 criminals on American streets. Your fine and dandy with this I assume. Biden process was fine, come on in, we don't care who you are.

You are too kind, that wasn't even real data or research, just regurgitated talking points, e.g. comparing cherry-picked examples of high single-item tariffs to the overall average tariff charged by the US. And VAT ... come on, that's an across-the-board tax and totally irrelevant.
So much for trying to educate myself on an issue I freely admitted I know little about…but I do appreciate the watch advice you give. Always good and appreciated.
In other countries, do citizens demand election process be changed if they don’t like results ? Asking for a friend
Same guy who posted about people complaining about the process of an election when they don't like the results.
7 million in thos
7 million in those years. 11 million during Trump's first 4.
