What about the 'Autopsy' of Democrat Party?

I rarely talk politics anywhere but here.

Probably a dozen TVs there, so plenty of opportunity to argue about sports instead.

And I never talk about sports, what other people do on a lawn or a field or a pool or a card game.
And see no reason to discuss politics as long as Trump owns it, and is slowly cleaning it all up, he still has to get rid of a few RINOS (He just defeated 39 of them in one day), (Tuesday, it you weren't looking). I will have to stop to assist, to vote some Tuesday hence, but other than that, not too concerned.
The dem entertainment is fun, though.

Are you all positioned, as I am, for the come?? No one knows exactly when the rapture hits. (except for Trump, he knows exactly), but you might want to get situated by middle of next week.
GOOD!!! I hated paying a dollar more for gas to keep heathen cretin rabid animals from having a nuclear bomb. They did say death to Israel and the USA for about 47 years, they did not teach it in schools for nothing.

Why do you think a substantial majority of Americans aren't inclined, like yourself, to drop to their knees whenever Trump's name is mentioned?

He "owns" a disapproval rating of close to 60%, with even right pollsters like Rassmussen and RMG Research giving him a -13% and -15% net approval. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/approval/donald-trump/approval-rating

I don't blame Iranians for hating us for our incessant meddling in their backyard as well as attacking them repeatedly even before this foolish fiasco. But your idea that they've somehow been "at war" with us without any of our Presidents (including Donald Trump for 4 years) noticing is exactly the type of thing Fox News tells gullible saps like you.

Funny, you talked about sports incessantly when right wing propaganda sources told you it was important to stop members of a tiny minority from competing against their peers. Now you admit you have no interest in sports and no knowledge of it.

First things first. You are saying that I do not care about sports, but that I 'do' care when sports intersect with a social or a political issue. That is correct. So you need to cool your jets.
I am not interested in sports as entertainment the way many people are. (I am not interested in how much money Musk has, like many Marauders are, for that matter).
That doesn't mean that I cant have opinions when sports overlaps ....follow me...with broader questions about fairness, rules or society. These are separate things. You smugly have countenanced men trouncing women who were born with lesser bodies. Today i will challenge your daughter to box.
I will now let my grandson beat me at chess, and then answer more of your angst.

I recognize the approval/disapproval ratings, people can disagree on whether the president Trump is doing a good job, but low numbers by themselves do not prove that he is failing any more than the high approval numbers prove that he is successful.
You libs are always so touchy about 'What Other People Think' which has been a pet mantra of mine on the Forum forever. True, these ratings often reflect current news, the economy, etc. Some will vote against him because it cost them $100 for gas today. Frustration!!! , All I see is fantastic leadership. Tht gets my vote, and teh gas will eviscerate nuclear maniacs. Do the people gassing up think of that? I assure you Suzianne does not.
Personally, I judge him by wether I think he's pursuing policies that I support and things that I care about rather than polling numbers..
So here we sit at Starbucks. You read WAPO about what 'other people think' (ugh) and will watch the telly, FOX News, where he tells Iran to Stick IT! I thus make my post about his leadership, and you have made it about...........poll numbers.

Finally, you want to 'take on' whether the Iran matter is a good idea or a bad idea. I think it is a good idea. This has been discussed ad nauseum.
I think in the end, it is the right thing, and I wikll stick my neck out here and predict an end to it all sooner than later, and great prosperity.
Prosperity!?!?!?!? Why hell, that will fly right in the face of you guys. OH NO< he will be elected for a 3rd term!! You should hope so.

If I may tack on to my previous 'poll' post, let us stipulate that Trump is truly hated by a lot of our citizens. Myself, I know not why. It is not even findable on google. So, that hate causes a skewing, if you will, of poll numbers.
This wilkl be proven when he prevails on Iran, etc, because when he prevails, not one of you naysayers will step up to the truth and admit the error of your ways. Because, you hate him personally, policies be damed.

I think the hate you direct at such people is pathetic.

I won't bother to explain to you how difficult a decision it must be for parents of such a teen, who feels trapped in their own body and might be considering suicide, to have to face. But by all means keep pretending it's like deciding whether to switch to Wheaties instead of Captain Crunch for them.

Conservati ...[text shortened]... guess finding a minority to oppress is a bit more important these days then ideological consistency.

When I was a teenager, nobody seemed to be trapped in the wrong body. What, pray tell, has happened. Hmmmm, if we just HAD to speculate, which segment of our society miiiiiggghht have brought all this crap on,.? 'Oh my goodness, Mac, little Johnny is wearing a dress, we need to take him to a doctor, a psychologist, someone , to tell us What They Think About This Phenomenon !!'"" "No, dear, give me a few minutes with him, I will straighten him out.'

so, you gonna drive that boy to a witch doctor, are you? What a great parent. Scuse me while I look up duty of a parent

Yeah, and Left wingers demand that the State PAY for these goulish operations.
Marauder, if your little boy has to have a sex change,,,,,,,,,Marauder?..... should you have a right to come over to my house and demand that I pay for it?

Why will you not answer yes or no to this question? And what if he is a 22 year old in Prison, should we pay for his sex change, maybe a touch of breast augmentation?

Marauder. You can do this . Put it on the table, you brought it up.

If doctors determine it's necessary medical treatment, yes.

Why do you think you, other right wingers and the State are better judges of such matters than individuals, parents and doctors? Just hating people isn't a qualification.

People can both recognize that Trump is a uniquely corrupt individual AND see his policies suck.

Marauder enlightens us that Fox News runs crawlers that are favorable to the conservative view in America. He is correct, yet they are factual, so would Marauder tell us the point of that statement?

As it turns out repubs don't want to do ITSHAY for the people, they proved that time and again, cut a billion from medicaid, kill USAID and now a quarter of a MILLION kids in Africa are dead from starvation and diseases we USED to cure but no more and now there are THREE health issues going, Measles, that IDIOT RFKjr advises parents NOT to vaccinate for measles or anything else and now there are DEAD CHILDREN from THAT POS decision. Then there is Hantavirus with at least 3 dead on a cruse ship and now people in the US under quarantine from that ship. The worse one is Ebola, has killed some 200 people in Africa before authorities even knew what was happening so the first person with Ebola and no symptoms flies to the US, you all ready for that? Fatalities so far are near 50/50.

Yes, they were.

They just suffered through it, sometimes because the tech wasn't there yet, but mostly because of pushback from people like you.

Intolerance quietly suppresses millions.

Isn't that the main purpose behind your stupid "anti-woke" policies?


Can't you just let people do what they want to do? No?

Then excuse us if we try to stop your president from defrauding millions.

So, how about this $10M autopsy, the results of which we've discussed for a whole year on the Forum. We all knew it when it was happening.

Sorry I'm a bit late, but surely autopsies are performed on dead entities?

Well, Kamala's campaign is certainly dead, and the Trumpublicans want to make the world think that the Democratic Party is also.

The rank-and-file need to stop talking about what a bloodbath the midterms will be for Republicans and just keep quietly getting the word out and keep up with trying to get more people voting, let them think no one votes democrat anymore, maybe they won't come out to vote, and beat the snot out of them at the voting booth. No "neener, neener" needed, as satisfying as it is.

Plenty of time for that when the House votes to make Hakeem Jeffries Speaker.
