U.S. And International Politics

[Richard Smith]

Smith,

Others might think of you as an idiot, but I just think of you as a "useful idiot."

Look it up.

Nothing about Russia?  Maybe that is progress.

Comrade Smith,

It should suffice that "Useful Idiot" is an old KGB* term for gullible and/or brainwashed-like-you people who unwittingly work for the Kremlin.

Which is in Russia.

Only 58 shootings in Chicago this weekend.  What a success story.  I wonder if more people are being shot in the liberal US cities than in Ukraine.  Nothing to see there, though.  No help needed.  No plan for addressing this violence, however.  Just year after year of lawlessness.

  Trump says they are definitely going into Chicago. The only question is when. After the Chicago Labor Day Numbers of dead and injured/shot, it's hard to understand the Chicago Dem's rejecting the help. But, this is exactly what got Trump elected POTUS in 2024. The Dem's in positions of power have TDS and continue damaging their own voting base.

The radical leftists who "govern" that city are claiming that sending in US military is an invasion.  That just goes to show you what they think about the country.  Not to mention the dozens of their own citizens who are being murdered and assaulted every single day.  Politics is more important than results.  And their only card to play at this point is resisting Trump.  If Trump is for peace, they are for war.  If Trump is for closed borders, they want to let everyone in.  If Trump opposes crime, they protect the criminals.

  Trump is cleaning up these Blue States that are being run by gang bangers. Now he's gonna also eliminate the drug lords running the cartels. Those drones are all over the sky.

The leftist courts are doing their best to undermine him.  I find it very difficult to believe that the President of the United States does not have discretion to mobilize the National Guard in the US when there is a crisis like out of control crime.   According to the leftist judges, the endless murders and assaults don't rise to a national emergency.  I'm fairly sure that if terrorists were shooting nearly 60 people every weekend in Chicago that would be an emergency.  And what happened to "Black Lives Matter"?  Aren't almost all the victims of these crimes black?   That no longer seems to matter to Dems when the desired political narrative does not support it.  The only objective is to oppose Trump. There is no alternative solution being pitched.  The status quo, keeping many urban minorities trapped in poverty for generations and dependent on government support, means that Dems get 80-90% of their vote.  That is essential to keep Dems competitive in national elections.  No other demographic is skewed to such an extent.  LBJ was a genius.
