U.S. Politics

[Martin Weidmann]

It just gets worse and worse every day for Old Joe.  His disastrous open border immigration and economic policies are the primary reasons.  The Dems must be in a panic as Trump surges.  When does Ukraine Joe pull the LBJ act and announce that he is dropping out?   

"Only one-third of Americans gave President Biden a thumbs up on the job he is doing in the White House, according to a new national public opinion survey.
The president stands at 34% approval in a Monmouth University poll released on Monday, with 61% giving Biden a thumbs down on his job performance.
The president's approval is at an all-time low in Monmouth polling since Biden took over the White House nearly three years ago."

Poor Richard, selectively quoting from polls he likes and completely ignoring the lessons he could have learned from 2020. It's so pitiful and sad.

You can tell that the media leftists are in an absolute panic as Biden craters.  They are rolling out the fake tropes in their endless obsession with Trump.  He is "Hitler" again despite having a Jewish daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren and being a strong supporter of Israel.   He will be a "dictator" despite already being president and leaving office after the last flawed election.  And on and on.  Repeat "Jan. 6" over and over again.   Stir.   This morning the state sponsored talking point is that the economy is actually doing great!  Americans are just too dumb to appreciate it.  What a great message to the voters!  They are too dumb to understand who to vote for.  Just trust the ruling cadre to tell us.  So when you pay $400 on your next trip to the grocery store, the prices are not high.  You are just an idiot or supporter of Putin.

[Martin Weidmann]

Trump is now saying out loud that immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our country". Exactly the same rhetoric Hitler used who wanted to keep the Aryan blood pure.

He then goes on and praises Putin, Orbán and Kim Jong Un....

And Richard wants us to believe that Trump isn't a fascist..... Go figure!

Told you so... 

"Richard" is showing his true colors.

Talk about a dictatorship and threat to democracy.  They are actually keeping Trump off the ballot in Colorado unless the US Supreme Court reverses the decision.  Wow.  Imagine that is what has become of America.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

Some people still have the common sense to protect the country from a wannabe dictator. They applied the laws that were designed to protect democracy.

Let's hope just is only the beginning.....

But don't dispair, "Richard", there are still countries you can go to.... North Korea might be nice!

[Richard Smith]

Things that a dictator actually does:

1) Change the election laws in a way that is most advantageous to them just before an election
2) Lock up political opponents
3) Keep political opponents off the ballot
4) Suppress free speech
5) Enrich themselves and their families with corruption and bribes.

All actions that have been taken by Old Joe and his radical followers.   The Colorado ruling is the single most egregious example of voter suppression and election interference in American history.  It would not only keep Trump off the ballot but would preclude American citizens from even writing in his name as their candidate of choice.  Thus, depriving them of their Constitutional right to vote for a presidential candidate.  Imagine if an all-Republican appointed group of judges decided that Old Joe could not appear on the ballot.  The leftist media and radical mobs would go insane and burn the cities to the ground.   Absent a reversal by the Supreme Court, the precedent has been set that politically appointed judges in every individual state have the ability to preclude American citizens from voting for their candidate of choice.  The chaos and damage to democracy would be mind bending.  But the ends always justify any means for the radical Trump haters.  If it means destroying democracy to keep him from being elected, then they are willing to cross that Rubicon.   Ukraine Joe's fall in the polls while Trump surges has caused absolute panic.  They are running out of options.

Says the most radical follower of a man who couldn't care less about law and order, and none of it is true.

The Colorado ruling is the single most egregious example of voter suppression and election interference in American history. 

In reality the Colorado ruling follows the law designed that somebody who has already been behind an insurrection doesn't get another chance to destroy democracy.

Imagine if an all-Republican appointed group of judges decided that Old Joe could not appear on the ballot.  The leftist media and radical mobs would go insane and burn the cities to the ground.

If "Old Joe" had been behind an insurrection he shouldn't appear on the ballot, but, unlike Trump he wasn't.

Absent a reversal by the Supreme Court, the precedent has been set that politically appointed judges in every individual state have the ability to preclude American citizens from voting for their candidate of choice.

Nope. Judges need good reason to preclude somebody from being on the ballot. In Trump's case they did.

If it means destroying democracy to keep him from being elected, then they are willing to cross that Rubicon.

Protecting the country from a fascist wannabe dictator who quotes Hitler, is only "destroying democracy" in the eyes of the most fanatic Trump followers. Hilarious.

The US Supreme Court is likely to unanimously reverse the Colorado decision.   Sec. 3 of the 14th Amendment does not apply to the president.  Even if it did, Trump has not been charged with "insurrection" must less convicted.  In fact, he was acquitted as part of the impeachment of any such act.   Imagine the chaos if the Dem precedent was established that every individual court from the various 50 states has the power to make a determination that a political candidate for President cannot be on the ballot based upon their own subjective interpretation of what constitutes an "insurrection."  And this decision is made in a state with judges appointed only by the political party running against this candidate.  Even the most radical, unhinged lunatic, Trump hating fringe must acknowledge that disenfranchising millions of American citizens from voting is not the way to win elections.  That kind of Jim Crow policy for political power is a relic of the past.  It does highlight, however, the extent to which these radicals are willing to go and their lack of confidence that Old Joe can win the 2024 election. 

Here is a prediction.  When the Supreme Court overturns this radical decision, the leftist loons will attempt to discredit the ruling on the basis of politics.  The irony.
