Politics/Religion Consolidated Megathread Extravaganza

If you are saying that Trump is being robbed like Bernie was seven years ago, that is not an apples to apples comparison. The Dems were not going to let him win no matter what. Trump can win but some of the donors who bought PAC for him in the past are having second thoughts in 2024 and I don't blame them.

It would take an overwhelming and resounding turnout of voters in the manipulated and rigged General elections for Trump to secure enough percentage points where the establishment has to concede again. Not a few.... but well over 10%.



That is highly unlikely in 2024.



They've diversified their tactics and are using DeSantis now to cannibalise the liberty oriented/MAGA type vote.



It's disgusting to watch and disheartening to see voters get taken for a ride again.

Of course the Dems will cheat in blue controlled ares of battleground states. I know that. As bad as Biden's presidency is, he will probably be reelected and it doesn't matter who the GOP nominee is. Even if Trump bowed out for the good of the country as I think he should, the Dems will not let DeSantis win.

A nice interview.

I'm afraid you might be right. If this forum is any guide, it rather appears like RINO is on the rise.

A poll found that more Americans would blame President Joe Biden if the debt ceiling crisis led to a credit default than would blame congressional Republicans.



The results were included in a Fox News poll of registered voters about the negotiations over raising the debt ceiling.



The poll found that 47% of Americans polled said they would blame Biden for a debt default, while only 44% said they would blame congressional Republicans.

A once-trendy hotel in New York City – which has since been repurposed to house migrants – has become a hub of intoxicated children, drugs, and violence, according to a former employee.



In October 2022, New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced that the Row NYC hotel would become a "migrant relief center."



The Row NYC hotel – located in the tourist-heavy area of Times Square – no longer offers rooms to the public, but instead houses as many as 600 migrant families.



The Row NYC has a gourmet food market, a fitness studio, and an internet lounge featuring iMac computers.



The New York Post reported last year, "The daily weekday rate for a standard room with one full or queen bed in mid-September — around when the hotel could begin housing illegal immigrants – ranges from $414.42 to $435.07 per night, including taxes and 'facilities fees' and depending on the view."



The New York City comptroller revealed in March that the city is on pace to spend over $4 billion during the fiscal years of 2023 and 2024. New York City has a $40 million contract with Row NYC to house illegal immigrants.



However, the former luxury hotel has reportedly become a center of lawlessness.

Why is the US importing obese and uneducated law breaking freeloaders and putting them up each night at a cost that many Americans, particularly older ones, won't see for a week?

Because they will vote Dem in the future.

The Dems must have gotten tired of outright rigging the many elections, with help from numerous Republicans,  mind you..



Or maybe what's coming isn't something that the average American could or would handle and they need the population numbers after the event. Uneducated and gullible poor willing to go without in times of regular hardship...



Who knows....





But there is a secret or even secrets which unites all the willing with the previous unwilling in our Western systems. How many times have you seen a politician or local celebrity campaign on and win an office on sound merits then do an abrupt flip as soon as they're in office?



There is a secret or secrets.... that much I know.

Just a thought mind you... you've heard of the fifteen minute cities they've been planning...



What if (and remember this is merely a thought experiment)... what if the prime purpose of the influx of refugees was to create an entirely new demographic of voters with no knowledge of the land about them? To corral them in their shiny new 15 minute prisons, while kicking the indigenous population out to starve with all resources deprived them?

The cheat is already in play. Can't you see it?

By the democRATs, obviously. If you mean the GOP, it is the same system that got Trump the nomination in 2016.

Factually, it is not the same system.  The Dems put universal mail in voting in place in 2020 and it is still there now.  That stuff is wide open for abuse with ballot harvesting and the Dems know it and are counting on it.  Unless Republicans get off their asses then they will lose again because ballot harvesting really tilts the field.

No, I mean the system the Republicrats used to get Trump nominated is now doing all it can to make DeSantis the nominee.

The Biden administration was ridiculed after the Government Accountability Office reportedly banned male and female terms.



The GAO, the government's main watchdog organization, issued a new language style guide that bans the use of male and female terms and "wording that diminishes anyone's dignity" in the workplace.



The style guide suggests replacing the word "man-made" with "artificial," "synthetic," or "manufactured," the Daily Mail said, adding that the language guide replaces "manned" with "crewed" or "piloted." Other banned words include "manpower," "unmanned," and "policeman," the outlet said.

Once again Kevin McCarthy and the GOP caved to the Dems.

magine a family facing impending bankruptcy while suddenly hitting their credit limit. Typically, that family would make serious lifestyle changes to balance the budget, and if they found it necessary to take out a new line of credit, they would only do so for the minimal amount necessary for a short period of time. Well, when it comes to the uniparty in Washington, after the $11 trillion COVID spending and money-printing orgy, they responded to calls for spending cuts and reforms ... by allowing an all-you-can-eat debt buffet from now until 2025! Don't worry, they gave us a couple of spending and accounting gimmicks in return.



The central flaw in McCarthy's approach to this deal was his entire messaging in the lead-up to this act of political adultery. Rather than drawing a line in the sand on the GOP-passed bill and then making the battle about debt, inflation, and the weaponization of government, he made the battle about getting Biden to negotiate and about not defaulting on the debt. In other words, he conveyed the message that Republicans fear not raising the debt limit just as much as the Democrats. Perforce, Biden easily agreed to "negotiate" so McCarthy could say he got "something" other than a "clean" debt limit increase. Once Biden agreed to negotiate and McCarthy wrongly validated June 1 as a drop-dead deadline, he had no leverage left. Hence, the interception rather than a touchdown in the form of the debt ceiling bill.
