So brave, so noble.
So hopelessly stupid.
And she’s an educator to boot.
You can’t make this stuff up anymore.

re: Eric Friggin Trump makes Chris Soy Boy Cuomo look like a retard in this segment

I think DJT’s kids have all grown to be commendable people but in fairness to humanity….making Chris Cuomo look inept is not necessarily an exceptional feat for one to achieve.

re: A reminder of the Republican Party before Trump

I remember once thinking of Kasich as a pretty sharp, dependable voice of conservatism and the GOP once upon a time.
Looking back, I’ve felt pretty silly and duped quite a few times in the past 10 years or so since DJT’s emergence ripped the curtain open on Oz.

I was never particularly a “fan” in his long public life prior to coming down the escalator.
I mainly thought him just a “celebrity” businessman and the guy that single-handedly killed the promising USFL in the early 80’s.
But I’ve liked most of what he has tried to accomplish as president and I have never personally questioned his love for this country.
He’s far from perfect but he’s been a hell of a lot better than anyone else either party has trotted out in all these post-Reagan years.

Obama.
It’s seriously difficult to think of even a single good thing that character accomplished for the benefit of this republic.
I suppose if one absolutely detested this republic and desired to see it “fundamentally changed”, then Barry’s probably among the greatest in history.

I wonder how many of these GOP “representatives” voted No to reflect the views of their respective constituencies?
If they did not vote in a manner reflecting their constituency, then why were their “No” votes more thoughtful, insightful, and better served the long term interests of their respective constituencies?

The Islamic Republic’s radical government never has been and never will be interested in “peaceful co-existence”.
They have a track record going back to 1979. Past will always predict future when it comes to this government of Iran’s.
Anyone who believes otherwise is simply engaging in wishful thinking, nothing more.

re: Romantic scene from Citizen Vigilante
Posted by Great Plains Drifter on 6/28/26 at 8:47 am to Padme
Watched it last evening.
I did not get the sense the main character was necessarily a “good guy”.
He was however, a character that through his own many flaws still recognized and was disgusted by a “system” that had willfully chosen to turn its back on the very citizens it’s supposed to represent.
He also would say “I’m doing this for you….until you learn to do it for yourself.”
Not the best movie ever made ….but the main topic it’s built upon is one that carries extreme pertinence and is very much real throughout western nations.

re: I asked ChatGPT who are the Great Houses in political board history and who is allied
Posted by Great Plains Drifter on 6/28/26 at 8:36 am to Lsupimp
This has been pretty interesting to read through on some of the “seasoned vets” of the board.
Have had (and still have) some pure, fundamental disagreements with some of the named board “characters” on any variety of topics but I’m glad I stumbled upon this little online community a few years ago and I can appreciate most anyone who cares enough to care about politics and how it shapes our country (too many people don’t care one way or the other in my estimation).

re: With more attacks from Iran, more retaliation by us... Is there a method to this madness

This guy is clueless on what he's doing here
It would seem obvious that he had ultimately believed and made the determination that a quick, overwhelming show of force that killed top levels of leadership, including the Ayatollah, would bring down the Islamic Republic’s government.
That did not happen, it quickly (and predictably) turned into a political controversy here in the U.S., the Islamic Republic played the one real card they possessed with the Strait and then it also quickly turned into an economic controversy.
Trump was looking for an off-ramp and something he could still try and chalk up as a win pretty much as soon as he knew that initial heavy strike would not bring down the Islamic Republic’s regime.
So, a horrible miscalculation that didn’t produce the results one bet on is simply that, a horrible miscalculation.
“Clueless” is in the eye of the beholder I suppose as previous presidents since 1979 could also be accused of being “clueless” when it came to effectively deterring the radical Islamic Republic regime.

It’s difficult to think of the benefits that have been gained by the GOP having control of the Senate.
“At least it’s not the Democrats” might be the singular benefit I can think of and even that is kind of a reach when I consider the likes of McConnell, Thune and others who have passively-aggressively done their level best to kneecap DJT.

At this point it boils down to whether British citizens will ever finally draw a line and take a stand for themselves.
They are going to have to overcome their own fear and be willing to risk their own futures to take such a stand though.
They won’t be able vote their way out of this.

Fortunately for most of them, even dumber people are out there that actually vote for them.
