If you think we should give af what Putin or any other world leader thinks of us remember why we don’t have free healthcare.

Did you watch the debate? There was only 1 candidate on stage who looked presidential. Poor ol orange man couldn’t even look a woman in the eyes. That sure screams masculinity. Wasn’t even going to shake her hand. I mean honestly what kind of guy do you honestly think he is? Trump would bend over backwards for Putin when given the chance.

Not surprising from today's MAGA choads! To MAGA, women are "property" they want to control. Like
haddix
posted, TFG didn't look at her ONCE SINGLE TIME! Couldn't do it. He can't look any woman who is powerful, successful, influential in the eye because he knows he can't control the narrative. The moment she walked to shake his hand, he was shook! He didn't expect her to do that.If the OP, who posted that sexist comment, honestly thinks TFG would be tough on Putin, or any other of the gruesome group of dictators, he has his head in the sand! He would give Ukraine up to Putin in a second if Putin asked and that would be a crime in itself. But some people just don't see the truth in front of them.

Some women pointed out that Trump didn't say Kamala's name once during the debate. I never caught it.
In Helsinki, Trump looked like a lost dog who found his owner. Dude wrote love letters to the North Korean leader from the Oval Office. Even right now, he is telling us that his position on Ukraine is to make them agree to a land-for-peace deal.

Why , because you disagree with someone?
Senate Republicans block border security bill as they campaign on border chaos
Nearly every GOP senator, along with six Democrats, voted to filibuster a bipartisan bill designed to crack down on migration and reduce border crossings.www.nbcnews.com
House Dems pass gas price-gouging bill that faces uphill battle in the Senate
The Consumer Fuel Price Gouging Prevention Act was approved along party lines in a vote of 217-207, with four Democrats joined all Republicans in oppositionabcnews.go.com

REMINDER: Every Single House Republican Voted Against Efforts to Lower Gas Prices
JULY 29, 2022
As Big Oil rakes in record profits on the backs of struggling Americans, let’s not forget that every single House Republican voted against legislation to crack down on gas price gouging. While Democrats remain laser-focused on bringing down costs for families, Republicans in Congress have repeatedly failed to deliver for the American people.
Kroger executive admits company gouged prices above inflation
Kroger's senior director for pricing Andy Groff said the grocery giant had raised prices for eggs and milk beyond inflation levels.www.newsweek.com
Meanwhile….he calls her a communist for trying to prevent it.
at Putin wanting Kamala when trump praises him at every opportunity and got on the world stage and sided with Putin over American intelligence agencies.

Thank you NT for getting out the vote. 
The choice is a no brainer. Anyone with a 5th grade education should know who to vote for and it's not for the Trump/Vance/Putin ticket

About that, I was reading this essay this morning:
Power Lines, by Matthew Karp
harpers.org
It makes a lot of arguments I disagree with (I think they're mostly too simplistic); however, the paragraph about the "diploma divide" made me reflect on the long-term outcomes of the Bush admin's No Child Left Behind policies and the for-profit college travesty, and I can't help but think that the general decrease in Americans' ability to comprehend discourse at the level necessary to discuss policy is rooted in those two educational failures.

Trump's first term policies were pretty ordinary by the standards of today's GOP. That's because Trump doesn't give a **** about policy. He outsourced judicial nominations to Leonard Leo as would any Republican president. He outsourced the EPA to fossil fuel industry. So on and so forth
What Trump is talking about today of course is an order of magnitude more insane. That's because he's more in charge. I think part of his strategy is to sanitize his first term by making it look sane in comparison while counting on people to react to his present musings as "Trump just talking ****", etc
We can't forget that his first term was an unmitigated disaster, while hewing pretty close to traditional GOP thinking. In related news GOP thinking has been an unmitigated disaster for a long time

Man damn near had one of his lieutenants in the White House in trump. Imagine him wanting anyone else there when Trump would be the easiest path to victory in his war with Ukraine.

Thanks for sticky-ing. Make an effort to vote. It's not a test. You won't get a bad grade. You can only vote for the stuff you care about if you want. You won't get points off for leaving something blank. Just vote.
If you're part of this whole sneaker culture thing you probably woke up early or stood line or camped outside a store for less important things (like shoes you never wore and turned to dust or ones you tried to sell and lost money on). Just do it. You can find the time.

How would Trump make it easier for Russia to "win" the war with Ukraine? How does Russia win the war ? Maybe until US aid stops then they will be forced to surrender or cease fire? I'm curious as to what the endgame is Ukraine for Russia as it is a small piece of land which holds no real purpose in the grand scheme of things outside of Nato.

You know she's NOT the President for those 3.5 years right? That would be like saying why didn't Pence do better during his 4 years?And you do understand how bills are actually passed? The President doesn't just wave his arms and things are done! Or do you need to take a civics course? Better get I'll give you this. An oldie but a goodie.
And lastly, go ahead and vote for that piece of ****! You're lying to yourself if you believe he will actually help you! I sure hope you don't have any sisters or daughters who WILL lose rights if he gets back in! And same for any of your older relatives on SS & Medicare! Because they will suffer as well. And any relatives or friends who use the ACA for insurance. Because they will be ROYALY ****** if he gets back in because they will repeat it and 10s of millions will be without insurance instantly! Want to talk about a recession? That would definitely do it! But hell, what do I know?
You should have stopped after your first paragraph.

There are certain people who do not react unless they get immediate gratification or they get punched in the face.
It's like the people who don't prep for hurricanes or take them seriously. If the news says there is going to be a hurricane hitting in 5 days, they don't do anything because when they look outside right now it's a sunny and nice day. It's only when the hurricane hits (punches them in the face) do they realize that something is happening and wish they had prepared a little more.
These are the same type of people who don't vote because there is no immediate gratification afterwards. There is no sandwich waiting for you when you turn in your ballot. You just have to do it and trust that the people and policies you voted for will benefit you.
From my perspective, republican (Trump) ideology is outdated. Their principles and beliefs do not fit where we are now or where we are headed 5, 10, 25 years from now. Republicans have normalized beliefs that would have put you in a mental institution as little as 15 years ago if you said these things out loud.
Democratic ideology (Harris) is better suited for the future. There are a lot of reasons for that which could take hours to explain. But to keep it brief, we need people and policies that look out for the masses and not just the elite. You can only try to improve something so much before you end up ruining it by doing too much. We need to feel safe and secure. We need to trust science and scientists and not superstitions and "holy men" with ill intentions. We need to get away from 2000 year old archaic morals. We need to be progressive for the sake of humanity.

This country is increasingly being controlled by the oligarchy if we're being honest. We used to have strong Antitrust laws but there has been an increase in mergers and limited competition

Ooh, really? She's VP righ, NOT President? If she has all this power you say she does, then why didn't Pence do more in his 4 years? It's because she does have that power to exact changes. She is delegated what to do from POTUS. Civics 101.
With the reply you posted, are you one of those who doesn't believe Biden was president for the last 4 years (and the country is being run by someone else)?

Nothing is more important than supporting this outdated nonsensical voting system we have in this country. True freedom is being forced to choose between two awful choices. Be sure to vote everyone and than post about it on social media!

I'm done with this. Hate playing games with people who don't even remember what they post prior.
Enjoy your little red hats, and your hatred and division. And your insatiable desire to control women's bodies!
Oh, lastly, hope you didn't buy one of your messiah's Bibles. Turns out they were made in China for $3 and he's selling them for $60!
Wonder if he slaps a tariff on them?

This has been a long time in the making. We can all take a guess which of the two parties has been primarily appointing judges who are hostile to antitrust
The presidency was controlled by Republicans from 1968-92 with only a four year interregnum. That's 20 years of GOP judges against Carter's four and Carter didn't even get a judge on the Supreme Court
Stephen Breyer is maybe the best judge in American history on antitrust law, who Clinton appointed in his first term. If Clinton had lost that election we would have had a 7-2 GOP supermajority for years and years

Reducing or outright cutting aide to Ukraine to start. Are you choosing to not acknowledge the relationship the two of them have? Do you not remember why trump was impeached the first time? It was just revealed Trump was secretly sending Putin Covid tests for his personal use when they were hard to get for US citizens and that they’ve kept in contact since trump lost the presidency.
