To be honest it smells of the same sort of fabrications he offered in a careless moment about his left wing shooting clubs and friends. The interesting thing, to someone like me, one is about as bad as the other. In the one case he is a liar. If the other, he is a thief stealing time from the people and organization that hired him.

General, it’s both a liar and a thief.

It’s a Marxist.

Trump views China as the greater danger in any future conflict.

He wants Russia as a possible ally or at least to remain neutral in a war between China and the U.S.

I'm not saying he's right, but by what he says and does it's the only thing that makes logical sense.

I dont see a communist allie as being worth a you know what,maybe we could look to Norway, Denmark, Poland, Sweden, AND YES EVEN UKRAINE since they have kicked russia in the balls pretty good. we allied up with russia in WW11 and ole Stalin pulled a good one on us, If we'd listen to Patton we'd be in way better shape now, but he mysteriously died from a car wreck injuries in Germany

I think that you're just butthurt that nobody calls you sir anymore. And you miss lording over the people beneath you. Forcing your minions to do your bidding. It's clear that you're not used to people telling you that you're wrong.

Slave master's rarely believe in lunch breaks.

...Now is the complaining over with? Have you two gotten it out of your systems? Are we going to get back to the debate about taxation policy, before the two of you detoured us into this?

The the republican party loses another seat in the senate. 54 to 44 with Alaska still counting. Also as of this evening the democrat party holds 252 seats in the House to the republican 161 with 22 races remaining uncalled. Of those, 17 are currently held by republicans with several likely to flip. 218 represents a majority.

Anyone trying to rationalize this needs to look at the numbers.

Remember how you had to hunker down and just somehow get through the Obama years?....Yeah, may have to endure that kind of misery again. Resignated apathy might result in the Humor threads getting bigger than Politics again.

I was not going to answer, because you do not deserve an answer. @Red Leg, and some others here earned and paid dearly to be on what you called “(government teet”. Some on here were in some sh*tty places while you were playing video games and eating Bon Bons. They fought and bled so you can have the freedom you have today and take for granted. You should at least be respectful and say thank you for their service to this great nation.

The so called tariffs are nothing more than a negotiating tool for a realistic NAFTA. The U.S. has been taking it up the rear-end trade wise since Nixon. Long passed time to fight back.
The irony of it is, the purchase of foreign goods just subsidizes socialist, welfare laden systems.
Buy a Mercedes? You're paying for a 37 hour work week for the highest paid industrial workers in the WORLD, health care, the defense of Germany and the rest of their socialist policies.
