But it is also sometimes wrong and, unlike religion, is willing to say so:

My hope is that these policies, and many of his others, will prove so popular that Trump will have to curtail or end them. Why? Because he’s so obsessed with being popular. He’s addicted to polls. As long as he can feed his greed, that may be enough to keep him happy. The big risk there is that he’s already signaling he wants a per…

@unseen, it’s already a huge nightmare. All of it. Did you see that basically Putin has already made a laughing stock of Trump? And Trump is already saying things about them deporting even people who are here legally. It’s really scary. it’s going to be absolutely horrible. He’s going to cause world war 3 and a Civil War at the…

Putting a corrupt “lawyer” with virtually no legal experience who’s also likely guilty of sex trafficking in charge of the FBI… How could that go wrong?

Come on. Palestinians are human and love their children.

Casting Palestinians as innocent victims, telling us that a trans woman with a dick really is the same as a biological woman, expecting that everyone should go to college to have value and cancelling and/or ostracizing people who said things not exactly “the correct way” are all prime examples of illiberal ideas.

I see what ya did there with the left. You’re right. And yet I don’t mean to demonize lefties to the exclusion of right wingers or anyone else. We sort of have to posit free will even if we think it is absent. So to the extent I am reacting to the overt representations and behavior of far left i conclude it is despicable.

Now that Trump’s elected, has the prospect of civil war gone away? Hardly!

@ Jake

While of course military folk can vote and can have political views, their oath is to The Constitution and not the President, and if an order is clearly not allowed under that sacred document, we should be able to expect them to decline to carry it out. That said, a President can probably find some weak kneed, sympathetic, or corruptible…[Read more]

Lawyer says some Trump critics might want to take a long vacation (somewhere without an extradition treaty?) Some might want to consider becoming expats.

Trump is planning on taking a major page out of the dictator’s playbook by purging the military of potentially problematic (“woke”) leaders. You know, the ones who might decided to decline to carry out an illegal order.

In order to qualify for a position under Trump, you need to prove that you’re unqualified.

If you want underage girls become a Muslim. Left will defend you by shutting down any criticism of raping girls cuz ya know…islamophobia

Right. (rolling my eyes)

Matt Gaetz has three traits Trump likes: 1) he’s got legal problems that Trump can immunize him from; 2) because of 1), Trump can count on his absolute loyalty; 3) he’s into underage girls.

Actually, Matt is really lucky because if Jeffrey Epstein was still around he would probably have been the leading candidate.

Musk already being regarded as “the guest who won’t leave after the party is over.”

I believe that two men prominent toward the end of Trump’s campaign will have a short shelf life.

You have to be loyal to Donald but he’s loyal to no one. Two of those he’s been keeping close (reference to a famous maxim) will probably be tossed aside in fairly short order. The first will likely be RFK, Jr., because he’s a loose cannon and, maybe…[Read more]

Adding to the fun, Trump is refusing to sign the ethics pledge.
