Good thing I didn't ask this question, there is a fellow Canadian on here keeps running around saying I am just trolling Americans.

A few of the Righties on here would agree with that assessment.

So, for the record - half the country is still sane, despite the votes for Trump. They voted for something they aren't getting. Of the other half, it would be just a uneducated guess, but let's say a third or a quarter are absolute brain dead sucked into the cult bigots and wannabee tough guys.



NOT ALL AMERICANS, just certain ones that have no hesitation in demonstrating how cultish their allegiance is and demonstrate it every day.
That "fellow Canadian" is trolling you. Besides he's likely a transplanted American. They hide among us.

No, 'sanity' is no longer on the table.

Two predictions:

Donald Trump will be impeached 3 times.

Donald Trump will declare a state of emergency and cancel the next election

Oh.....and Mrs. Trump will set a world record for botox injections.
 
Voting for Trump was stupid. However, they only voted for Trump because of their greed. They sacrificed us all for the hope that they would get rich quickly. Their ignorance is astounding.

My former doctor (now) was giddy with expatiation that things were about to be a utopia. His wife was not on board. I bet that's going well now.
They only voted for Trump because of the DISASTER of the Biden administration, the coverup of Joe's health issues, the cluster**** of booting Joe from the ticket, the obvious inability of Harris to RUN a campaign, and lastly, Harris picking a VP like Walz, who for some odd reason thinks he appealed to "white males".

Any other reason the DNC, MSM, late night hosts, and the View want to puke out are all just bullshit to cover their on shortcomings.


Sadly Dems know this but are too prideful/short-sighted/stupid/ lacking in any semblance of sense to admit it.

I would LOVE to see a Democrat actually come on this forum and admit the loss was your own fault.

Jane,

Wrong again. People only voted for Trump because they thought they would have more money in their own pockets. Nothing to do with Biden, the economy or anything else. Those are just excuses to justify being one of those people who only care about money.

The loss was the fault of the MAGATS but the whole country is being subjected to the consequences-including us normal people.
 
The American people?

Gimme a break, eh wot? :rolleyes:
 
"That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town. And when I got there, I thought maybe I'd just run across Greenbow county. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I'd just run across the great state of Alabama. And that's what I did. I ran clear across Alabama." —Forrest Gump

Whatever makes you sleep at night. So you think the disastrous Biden administration had no effect at all? That the obvious lying by the MSM covering up all the dirty little secrets at the behest of the DNC didn't effect people? I won't go into Harris. That's a given.

You do understand that if the economy grows, EVERYONE (not just rich people like the DNC propaganda machine keeps pumping out) has more money in their pocket.
 
You know good walnuts make great Cookies.

I am seeing a load for U No; bulling Walnuts.
Maybe international Walnuts are the important load.
Bullying and lots of old tired guys with swollen walnuts!

I started planning for this back in Early December.
Some walnuts lost, some walnuts gained.
Don't sweat the long growing season for more walnuts.
Make sure the tree stay safe.

Wise decisions, more Walnuts next fall.
Bad walnuts will get panned for good!

2024 shows lower shipments of Walnuts.
The Depths of the water may pan more walnuts in 2025.
Maybe tempers chill with better wantnuts.
 

But why the World when so many in the USA could benefit with education Cost help.
Instead, a foundation that's worried about the world. So much B.S. So you then
tell them to GFT in 2040!

Yeah-those 2017 tax cuts sure helped the most needy, didn’t they….🙄
 
The re-election of Donald Trump makes me question this reality.

The states which rely the most on federal tax dollars for education and medicaid are red states. Trump ran on slashing medicaid funding and getting rid of the department of education.

Donald Trump's popularity skyrocketed over the last four years. This despite the fact:

- He continue to deny he lost the 2020 presidential election.
- Pledged to pardon the January 6th rioters.
- Found liable for sexual assault, sexual abuse, defamation of character, and causing injuries to E. Jean Carroll
- Found liable for over a billion dollars for tax and property fraud.
- Found guilty of 34 felonies for committing financial fraud.
- Went on national television and slandered Haitian Immigrants.
- Trump administration saw a decrease in manufacturing jobs, rise in trade deficits, and lost a trade war with China. While under Biden, manufacturing jobs went UP. GDP was higher under Biden than under Trump.
- Pledged to appoint a life-long anti-vaxxer and conspiracy-theorist as his HHS. This person has no medical or scientific education.

Lets also look at the fact that our country is obsessed with transgender people. This despite the fact they are about 0.5% of the U.S population. They are not sexually assaulting or peeping on people in the bathrooms or locker rooms. None of the states that have tried to ban transgender females from women's sports can produce a single example of a transgender female which dominated a single sport within their state. The President of the NCAA testified there are about 500k student-athletes in America, and less than 10 of them are transgender.

My question to you guys is, is it fair to question the intelligence of the American people? We certainly don't do our homework and allow terrible candidates (I am also referring to Hilary Clinton) to win over the population.

It's wrong not to.

Is that why she looks so detached or whatever you want to call it?

Trump's dirty little secrets are there for all to see. MAGAs just don't care. They don't care about the law, the Constitution, fellow human beings, which is in stark contrast to Christ's teachings, or anything that is decent and humane.
What's more, the Trump campaign exposed MAGAs most innermost fear of the LGBTQ.., the brown people, the black people, the powerful women...so they voted for the felon to make that sick feeling of angst stop.
 
I doubt that our collective intelligence has gone down, because that's kind of an innate thing. But there has definitely been an increase in gullibility, and gullibility is correlated to low intelligence. Some smart people have managed to marshal a critical mass of the gullible, and they now reside safely in a bubble of the misinformation that makes them feel comfortable. Everybody likes to be part of a group, and they will gladly sacrifice some independence to remain part of that group. In the case of Republican voters, that means accepting whatever reasoning the group has accepted as correct, even if it's plainly incorrect.

Biden was a disaster! Was he, though? By most metrics, his administration was very successful. By the end of his term, our economy was "the envy of the world," according to the Economist. Unemployment was low. Inflation was never the huge problem that it was made out to be (not that inflation can be controlled by the president), and we were coming out of the COVID era pretty well, especially compared to the rest of the world.

A mere 100 days later, and the economy is in real trouble because of the U.S.-vs-the-World trade war trump started. Many economists are predicting a recession, a huge (negative) turnaround from "the envy of the world." These are things we can measure objectively, but we all know that those fact-filled arguments fall on deaf ears.

Now throw in an entertaining, charismatic figure like trump, and the gullible masses have found their leader. He galvanizes the gullible base by demonizing minorities and other vulnerable groups (which always works), going so far as to openly welcome white supremacists into the fold (a little trumpian wrinkle on that formula). A little bigotry isn't enough to make the gullible masses leave the safety of their group. Nor are a slew of indictments and 34 felony convictions enough.

Given all of this, I think it's perfectly fair to say that trump voters as a group are of low intelligence.

A bit of anecdotal evidence... I have regular political debates (arguments, really) with some of my old high school classmates. To a man, the trumpies are from the back of the class, the dummies who never answered questions correctly, the ones who struggled mightily just to pass on to the next grade. I think it has been too long since they got a regular, objective assessment of their intelligence. 40 years on, they have learned nothing new, and show no interest in learning anything now, despite wanting to debate. They certainly don't remember learning about the Smoot-Hawley Tariff disaster, nor does trump.

I would enjoy being able to debate you on these points. You let me know you have the sand to do so by responding.

I can tell by your post you have no intention in admitting the Dems loss was their own fault.

Further debate is a waste of time.

"Admitting" is not debate, I specifically asked you if you could debate the topics you spoke of, you won't or can't....so I have no idea what you are doing at a debate site, you ought to try run away to "Admitting.com" or something like that.
 
The story of DOGE with the belief they're cutting significant waste and fraud is the perfect example. Have to go beyond the headlines, and if you did you'd know cutting down federal workforce isn't a significant source of savings. In fact, when you consider GDP growth and population increases it's fine. Absolutely no need to trim in many areas. We can afford Park Rangers, Air Traffic Personnel, and.Scientists.

A 2% increase in taxes would reduce the deficit much more.
We cut air traffic personnel while wondering why planes are crashing.
