Gonna be interesting if Trump is elected whether he becomes the vicious dictator and destroyer of American democracy (such as it is) that the democrats have been portraying.

You seem blithely unaware of Project 2025:

The shooter’s search history reveals that he researched Trump, Biden, and other prominent people as well. His political leanings are confusing, other than that he was a 2nd Amendment fanatic. His high school years were troubled as he was a bullied outsider.

This, more and more, to my mind, he’s appearing to be a troubled suicide-by-cop type who…[Read more]

Spraying the stage with real bullets?  That doesn’t add up at all.

Ir would still count as an attempt on Trump’s life, a failed one, and give him PR almost as good as the PR he’s getting.

I don’t know.  Mistakes happen.  I’ve heard the head of the secret service say it was a health and safety issue, why they didn’t put anyone on that roof.  Instead, they secured the inside of the building.

Didn’t want an agent to get sunburn?

Master sniper thinks something stinks about this attempted assassination. The shooter, he says, had to have inside help.

Either something was intended on assassination day and went (semi-?)right or something is seriously wrong with the Secret Service to allow some bozo to get access to a roof in proximity to the podium.

@ Reg

So, now you’re shilling for a VPN Service. I’ve tried watching programs in other parts of the world using faraway VPN servers with NO success. In the case of the BBC

BBC iPlayer may block access to users outside of the UK due to international rights issues. The BBC sells its original programs to other streaming services and TV stations…[Read more]

Interesting fact about the author of the Lynley mystery novels series, which are classic British whodunits. Elizabeth George herself is not British. Born in the American state of Ohio, she currently resides in the state of Washington.,

Well, in the States there are only a few distinct city accents. New York and Boston among them. Elsewhere, the phenomenon of city accents is virtually nonexistent, though regional accents happen though regional accents do exist. But Midwestern is what the vast majority of Americans speak.

One thing I’ve discovered in watching British mysteries is the existence of numerous distinct local accents. A witness will say detect a Yorkshire or Manchester or London or whatever accent. Here in the states, we do have local accents but much fewer. Vast swaths of the country speak the standard Midwest accent you hear ubiquitously on the…[Read more]

Trump, who claims on the one hand that he has “no idea” what Project 2025 is all about or who is behind it is actually lying (and not just because his lips are moving). It was actually largely written by members of his administration. Listen to this dark threat/prediction by the head of the Heritage Foundation, predicting that either it will be…[Read more]

I want some of whatever it is you were on when you wrote that.

LOL, If Trump dies before the election, the MAGATs would still vote for him !

You and I will probably vote for Biden even if he’s in a coma. Strangely, it’s not the progressives who are demanding Biden step down.Bernie Sanders and AOC are backing Biden.
