Alaska needs to go Blue before Trump sells it back to Russia for a few (personal) billion.

I'm not surprised, Murkowski always seemed to be a decent Senator.

Until it came time to vote.

Then she was just a hold out until Trump sweetened her slice of the pie.

Same with Susan Collins. Always

You really don't think these things through, do you Cadet Zed? Even if he did have the power to do that, he'd be more likely to sell it if it's blue rather than red.

Even if he did have the power to do that

What's preventing from doing so?

He can sell federal land to Putin.

he'd be more likely to sell it if it's blue rather than red

Except if it were blue, the state government will fight him in court.

If it stays red, his pet republicans will roll over and play dead.

Would Trump sell something that's not his to an enemy of the United States?

Donald's a sociopath and a career criminal.

Of course he would.

Donald Trump thinks that he is Divine.

If the man thinks he has the power, he believes he has the power.

Now let's talk about you.

All this experience of Donald Trump and you still don't get him.

Why?

such drama here........

first.....Alaska with a democratic party governor doesn't make it blue.

second.....I'm sure everyone knows this but there will be no selling of Alaska regardless of how this election turns out.

for christs sakes...it's as if some of you imagine you're on some reality TV show trying to be the most dramatic.

Zed is either Honey boo boo's mom or snookie.....take your pick.

If Zed lived in a world where he was expected to be anything other than a drama queen....he'd be something other than a drama queen.

But as it stands......he's going to play the roll he is permitted to play.

Probably not.

But Trump would try if the personal incentives were great enough.

You do know that Trump has been selling objects looted from the Kennedy Center?

Like all career criminals, the man has no boundaries. If he can get it, it is his.

when I said there will be no selling of Alaska, it wasn't because I imagine to know what Trump will and won't do. That was about legal and political restraints preventing that from happening. Not Trump's judgement.

why do you insist on convincing me Trump isn't a good person?

I knew that decades ago.

Why are you such a drama queen?

We are in the process of affirming those restraints against a person and a movement for which they have no reality.

Our success is measured in the extent we ca that without violence.

Unlike last time.

It won't matter much as long as he's wetting his beak. Putin may have to throw in some nudes of Jon Husted to close the deal for the red state.

Oh, Eberly.
It's obvious nobody could ever convince you of anything.
That's... That's your role in this drama. Don't you see?

Anyway, I hope your Alaska crystal ball works better than your Abortion one.
Nobody needs another drama like that.

The Republican Party as we used to know it has been dead for ten years. I don't know to call the current -------- lead by Trump and his MAGA supporters. Let's be honest. The Republican Party should just change it's name.

#21 | Posted by moder8 at 2026-10-29 05:44 PM | Reply

They're the MAGA party.

The only thing left over from the republican bygone era is the red.
