Remember when you used to try to come off as that famous hypothetical person, The Reasonable Man? I never bought it , but at least you tried.
Who is on your list of "decent" persons in Trump's orbit? Conor McGregor? Mel Gibson? Rudy? Stephen Miller? Pete Hegseth? Don, Jr.?

Maybe Melania and Barron are decent and that's why they keep them mostly out of sight (or silent).

Maybe, maybe not.


I dunno about Baron, but Melania definitely is NOT!
And I'm not even remotely referring to her early life in porn.

I'm not bothered by Milley's painting. He accepted a pardon, which is tantamount to admitting guilt. Adios.


What is General Milley "guilty" of?

Speaking of military…my son is nearing the end of basic training. In a very odd development for me, I seem to align more with Biden's foreign policy than Trump's (too close to isolationism for my liking). But I think our odds of having a war went down a good bit today and that makes me happy, especially as a dad.

Who knows? But he accepted the pardon so he gets the stigma along with the legal protection.

oski003 is clearly a MAGA Republican and an anti-vaxxer. In spite of the entertainment value he brings to the forum when he claims otherwise, he really needs to embrace this reality.

Funny.
Trump repeatedly dodging the draft had no stigma.

And you're concerned about someone that served our country admirably for 43 years and was chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff?

Yeah, Trump is a dealer!

Russia gets Ukraine and former Soviet satellites.
China gets Taiwan and whatever else in the South Pacific.
USA gets Greenland, Panama, and Mexico.
Europe and NATO get the stick.

The only shots to be fired will be against the Mexican Drug Lords.

Does your son speak Spanish? He might need it when he's on assignment.

If my prediction comes true, sell them Euro and go long BRICs and Emerging Markets.

Wild card will be Africa, the only place where people still f*k without birth control.

Meanwhile, you had a solid "warrior" from Vietnam get slayed by the fake swiftboat ad campaign.

Liars!

This is why Biden presented pardons.
Trump is vindictive and will destroy his opponents.

Trump's speech preceding his public signing of Exec orders was hard to watch. His ramblings are part of his popularity with his core base but it's tough to watch, for me at least.

3 speeches.
Not 1.

Quantity over Quality.

Instead of talking UP to the American people, he talked DOWN to them.

Nothing soaring or uplifting like how many Presidents spoke to the American people before him.

He also never mentioned anything about "reaching out".
He did the opposite.

He also had Gen. Mark Milley's portrait removed from the Pentagon hallway.
Never mind that Milley had served our Country for 43 years while the Orange Buffoon claimed "bone spurs".

Get ready for the "Trump Revenge Tour" where every hallowed American institution will be tarnished.

What are your favorite examples of uplifting and unifying speeches from other fascist dictators?

Hang in there Bearister. It will be okay. If all the things you and concordtom fantasize about come true, I will join your side. Otherwise, I focus on the issues and laugh at your hypocrisy.

No, actually, you won't.
Because you will be fed a brainwashing narrative of "alternative facts" about what happened. And you will follow it.

I saw the still and it looks very bad.
If you watch the video, there is plausible deniability, because he had put his hand on his heart first and says something like "you have my heart".
So, maybe it was a stupid awkward wave.

He also could be playing on the edge.
I would have to see other instances to be critical.

How about America's Mayor? He was generally considered to be decent as little as 20 years ago!

Aaron Astor, a history professor at Maryville College in Tennessee, posted: "This is a socially awkward autistic man's wave to the crowd where he says 'my heart goes out to you.'" (Musk has previously disclosed that he has Asperger's syndrome, also known as autism spectrum disorder.) Newsweek opinion editor Batya Ungar-Sargon offered a similar explanation, adding: "We don't need to invent outrage."

Musk has previously been criticized for allowing pro-Nazi accounts to flourish on his platform and for posting right-wing memes and seemingly supporting antisemitic conspiracy theories, which led to an exodus of advertisers from X in 2023, and for recently supporting Germany's far-right populist AfD party, whose leaders have made "antisemitic, anti-Muslim and anti-democratic" statements, according to the ADL.


Musk did not directly address the controversy Monday night, though he replied to a number of posts on X about itthanking the ADL, mocking Ocasio-Cortez, and agreeing with a post that said: "Can we please retire the calling people a Nazi thing? It didn't work during the election, it's not working now, it's tired, boring, and old material, you've burned out its effect, people don't feel shocked by it anymore, the wolf has been cried too many times."
Musk also reposted a video clip of his rally remarks that included the moment he made the questionable gesture, commenting: "The future is so exciting!!"

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States."

Not under the "Law & Order" President.
Yesterday, he signed a directive to revoke the 14th Amendment of the Constitution.
