    More bomb threats! Springfield hospitals lock down due to bomb threats

    That's nice. Appeals to Authority are a logical fallacy. He can have his opinion, his opinion has no more significance than mine to myself. While he may have more knowledge on the ground, he also has a host of other contextual facts that shade his opinion on it as well. I respect his right to...

    [W:802] Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement

    I get you. The reason I just don't agree, and can't agree, with the notion that political rhetoric by political figures...whether they are lies, misleading, hateful, or over the top...make those figures culpable or responsible is because frankly I've seen similar at their core type things about...

    [W:802] Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement

    Like I said, ask yourself. If you do claim he incited it and was complicit in the mob riot at the capital, then I can't blame you for saying it about Biden and Harris here. I can disagree with someone but respect the fact they are consistent in their stance.

    More bomb threats! Springfield hospitals lock down due to bomb threats

    Politicians since the end of time have made stupid, dishonest, slanted, or even hateful comments before. That's simple reality and at its foundation isn't new. Millions of people hear those words and comments. They don't run off and make bomb threats. Because speech does not cause this kind of...

    [W:802] Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement

    So Trixie, you've consistently condemned Trump and others on his side for the past years for the plethora of similarly persistent and debunked falsehoods they peddled that were parroted by people who have committed violence, and directly laid blame? Youve suggested that Trump, and others like...

    [W:802] Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement

    By your own logic, not only will someone take him seriously, but they're even more likely to take him literally when politicians and news anchors continually bring it up either without context or blatantly indicating he's literal in saying it, and then they bear the responsibility for it as...

    [W:802] Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement

    Please tell me you're not someone who suggests anyone suggesting a crime victim should at least consider their own potentially risky behavior, even if it's perfectly legal and legitimate behavior, is "victim blaming." Because otherwise, of course he bears some responsibility, look at the skirt...

    [W:802] Trump is ‘safe following gunshots in his vicinity,’ campaign says in statement

    Good on the Secret Service for finding and thwarting this one prior to any shots being fired. Unlike the last time, initially this doesn't seem to be a security failure on their end. Hopefully that's a positive trend. Those on the right complaining about rhetoric should ask themselves honestly...

    Trump-Harris Debate: Who met their objectives?

    I don't give Trump any slack for this. Conservative media was talking about how prior to this the coverage split was 100% positive for Harris to 91% negative for Trump on the network. They were well aware from the onset the moderators were highly unlikely to be unbiased arbiters of the matter...

    Trump-Harris Debate: Who met their objectives?

    A solid point, a great point even, a persuasive point. It's too bad that her opponent was too undisciplined or unprepared to consistently and effectively hammer that point, leading to many of the casual voters not realizing the flips and the lack of solid explanation for why.

    Trump-Harris Debate: Who met their objectives?

    A common line from Trump fans that drive me crazy is "he isn't a politician" Yes. Yes he is. Maybe he wasn't in 2015, but at this point it's been 8+ years of him in or running for office. He IS a politician. And you would expect him to actually at least practice or learn more about his craft...

    Trump-Harris Debate: Who met their objectives?

    Post debate my general take was Trump had a narrow loss, Harris a narrow win Trump missed a massive opportunity to turn attention into Harris and define her. His closing argument of "why haven't you done it" was good, but came too late (mostly political junkies last till the end, and they're...

    What undecided voters think.....

    Yep, insulting people and effectively calling them stupid because they have a different outlook than you will surely be a compelling argument to win them to your side. If Trump somehow pulls this off its not Fox News or MAGA that people should be pointing the finger at (those things are...

    Hunter Biden found guilty on all charges in historic felony gun trial

    LOL. Honestly, anyone desperately waiting to see some political opponent tossed in jail deserves Tank

    Hunter Biden conviction - will the sentence have a positive impact on criminals trying to lie and buy ??

    No, they don't need to send him to prison for a few years, and it'd be ridiculous to do so. At most I could see him getting a year and a day. No criminal history. Has shown remorse. Has shown attempts at rehabilitation. No need for a strict sentence here, or in any case similar that will use...
