He would believe Vlad the Invader over the Z the invaded.

He's like a Chinese Republican House Member.

Odds are, and long have been, that the next terrorist act in the US will be by white nationalist rwingers as it usually is.

But yeah, foreign fundies might also take a shot at it again.

"Blindsided"?

That's prolly what got him the job.

Wonder if we could get a change of venue in Trump's business fraud cases?

America in 2025 if the authoritarian Repubs have their way.

Also, women will be barefoot, so they can't run away, and perpetually pregnant.

Trans will be shot on sight.

And white "christian" nationalists will be perplexed when AOC is Raptured.

"... it's unreal"

It's practically Satanic:

"Republicans kill border bill in a sign of Trump's strength and McConnell's waning influence

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell encouraged GOP senators to pass an immigration and Ukraine aid deal. Just four of them supported it. In the end, even he voted no.

Within 48 hours of the release of a long-awaited immigration and foreign aid bill he had championed, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell's Republican conference rejected his pitch to support it, knifed the deal and left it for dead.

Just four Republicans voted for it. In the end, even McConnell backtracked and voted against the package that he had helped develop.

But Trump's hammering of the deal, while he uses immigration as a campaign issue, and his demands that Republicans reject it won the day." excerpts

Even Killer Kyle could have gotten in under that program!

Anecdote isn't evidence. But then, facts matter little to rwingers in any case.

- that ridiculous spin.

You are either lying or you have gotten stupider over the years.

Facts are facts; had the Bill passed there would be less misery on the Border today, and it didn't pass because Donald Trump told YOUR Party not to pass it so he, and they, could use Immigration as a political issue.

You disappoint me mightily, Painless.

In 1969 my Draft Lotto # was 30-something... so I was likely to be, 'the first kid on your block to come home in a box', as the lyric goes.

I got a 6 month Deferment after my physical though, because of ulnar nerve damage in my left elbow; they thought maybe I couldn't hold a rifle steady enough to kill some poor villagers.

Which was good because I did too well on my testing, and would have gone to Officer Training for 6 weeks before prolly being dropped in the front lines where my life expectancy would have been days, not weeks at that time... often because Officers were shot by their own troops because they had no business trying to lead soldiers who had been there for months and years, and could easily get them killed.

As it turned out, the Army never contacted me after 6 mos, or ever again, and I lived several years making decisions based on they might one day find my file! But that did get me to go to college, lol.

And I never contacted them either, duh... and it's too late now, lol.

What's that spell?
What's that spell?
What's that spell?
What's that spell?
What's that spell?

yeah, c'mon on all you big strong men
Uncle Sam needs your help again
he's got himself in a terrible jam
way down yonder in Vietnam
so put down your books and pick up a gun
we're gonna have a whole lot of fun

and it's 1, 2, 3, what're we fighting for?
don't ask me, I don't give a damn
next stop is vietnam
and it's 5, 6, 7, open up the pearly gates
well there ain't no time to wonder why
whoopee! we're all gonna die

well c'mon generals, let's move fast
your big chance has come at last
gotta go out and get those Reds
the only good Commie is one who's dead
and you know that peace can only be won
when we've blown em all to kingdom come

well c'mon on Wall Street
don't be slow
why this is war a-go-go
there's plenty good money to be made
by supplin' the Army with the tools of the trade
just hope and pray that if we drop the bomb
they drop it on-the Vietcong

chorus

well c'mon mothers throughout this land
pack your boys off to Vietnam
c'mon pops, don't hesitate
send em off before it's too late
be the first one on your block to have your boy come home in a box

and it's 1, 2, 3, what're we fighting for?
don't ask me, I don't give a damn.

- What he's doing with the border is criminal.

Criminal would be getting all the fixes you wanted in a bipartisan Bill... and then killing the Bill for political election rhetoric reasons, because your authoritarian leader told you to.

All the pain and suffering currently ongoing is totally the responsibility of the Republican Party.

Sounds like projection, LTURDS.

And 17?

Po' folk kowtowing to their betters... who pay less taxes as a percent of their income than he does.

"Republicans have not demonstrated much care or compassion, either " using the migrant crisis to score political points while ignoring the human toll."

This is someone moaning about the human condition, aggravated by a century of capital exploitation of almost all our southern neighbors, but finally deciding to blame it all on a President who at least tries to help... and isn't using this tragedy as a political football the way almost all Republicans are.

lmao... trying to make people think he EVER read a book.

European boots on the ground would all the boots necessary.

This isn't about the substance of the Bill JeffyBelle, it's about the incompetence of the Republican Party.

"If the casket don't fit, you must acquit!" - Johnnie Cochran's Chewbacca Defense

Trump killed this Bill... he can't have his people who deal with Russian Intelligence get caught again like Manafort was.

I know, right?

I should have titled it, Where Jared Kushner's Trans Investors Came From?

Then they'd be all over the thread.

My entire collection is being given to Trumpers to protect their eyes from his magnificent orange glow.

Also can be used as aviator glasses.

Ha... another Trump VP candidate!

The "instability" is caused by white nationalists and criminal Presidents trying to overthrow the results of State Certified Elections with a violent riot and Fake Electors.

And the reason the larger number of the very wealthy are able to afford second citizenships is that they have a surplus of money due to their Deficit Spending based tax cuts.

So, poor Trumpers, and everyone else, are paying for it.

Thanks, Trumpism!

Ah, from, "Free Minds and Free Markets"... no bias there.
