I did explain it in the reply you snipped to try and look smart.

You do know that is actually illegal don't you? If you try and do it between banks it's called Check Kiting. And the defense of the money would be there before the check bounced doesn't really work. Folks have gone to prison for it.

Now of course, since Trump and the Frat Boys are doing it, that's fine. Don't worry about it. It is for a good cause.

If you've never heard of Check Kiting, you should probably use your preferred search engine to look it up.

Our garbage cans were designed by Big Balls. You kick them once, they fall over and bleed all over everything.

It was used in self defense. Which is also legal.

well it's your language and your script from your cult. Why would I understand what it is you're thinking? There are no kings, there are elections and that didn't change, so divide the country is all that demofks are about.

So you don't understand figurative language. Great we cleared that up.

right - GOP needs to demand Democrats go along with it .... and if they do, then GOP will vote YES to open Fed Govt

if the Democrats don't give all that? then GOP can vote NO and blame the Democrats for not caving to GOP demands

makes perfect sense right ?

"You Dems need to become fascists like us and join us in the destruction of the country...."
 
Although I have expressed some notions of my belief these protests, at this time, are essentially futile efforts, were I already equipped with a vehicle that could transport 'Old Sparky' aka my electric wheelchair, this would be the No Kings protest I would attend, NAMPA IDAHO NO KINGS

That's not what the polls are showing. The Dems are gaining ground against the GOP. This from the Morning Consults most recent poll.

"Congressional Democrats’ popularity ticks back up: Voters are 5 percentage points more likely to have an unfavorable than favorable view of Democrats in Congress, a 2-point improvement from last week that nonetheless leaves them less popular with Americans than they were for most of September. At 7 points underwater, Republicans in Congress remain slightly less popular with the U.S. electorate.

Schumer bests Johnson in popularity: For the first time this year, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has a lower net favorability rating among voters than Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.). However, with respective net ratings of -5 points and -4 points, both leaders are underwater with the overall electorate."

Lol, you want to play the game of cherry picking specific questions from single new polls out today. Okay, I'll play.

This comes from a new AP-NORC poll out today and it was a terrible outlier poll for Trump compared to all the job approval polling surrounding it. It was far and away the lowest among the most recent 14 job approval polls on RCP.
But, within this, terrible for Trump, poll, happened to be these specific questions. Enjoy!

Not having a King means....

* Not paying taxes that weren't passed in the House of Representatives. "No taxation without representation", remember?

* The right to read a message board without being seized and put into the hands of politically favored billionaires. The Stamp Acts - remember?

* The right to due process before being "oopsied" to an El Salvadoran concentration camp. I don't think the founders thought they had to put that in the manual, but several components are covered.

He would have to be brain dead to not notice there is dissent from the Left.
What does that degree of dissent translate into?

To the degree that people who voted for him are no longer supporting him.

The posts were specific to a conversation about how the parties are looking relative to the shutdown. What you posted has zero to do with that. So not sure what your point is.

Interestingly though as much as voters say (theoretically) they trust the GOP more to handling certain issues in the very same poll you quote the reality of how they see the GOP actually handling them is also polled and the GOP is failing miserably in every category......enjoy

So a protester carrying a loaded weapon to a peaceful rally is OK with you?

Are you an advocate of political violence or are you just hoping the NO KINGS protest does not turn violent because an idiot is carrying a weapon to a "peaceful" rally?

Does the 2nd Amendment say otherwise? They may need to defend themselves from all the criminals that will be burning the cities down where they protest as cited by Trump. Peaceful protesters still have all their constitutional rights when they peacefully protest. This includes the 2nd amendment.

I'm sorry, "which party does x better" are not very specific questions, they are very general and partisan.

When the specific question was asked in the very same poll the GOP failed miserably.....see post #392

Glad I am an adult non whiner Democrat who is willing to compromise rather than one of those demofks you are talking about. I believe our President might be a baby demofks considering he whines more than anyone I have ever seen and certainly behaves like a spoiled baby who is told NO in the candy aisle when he doesn't get his way.
