Two of the most ignorant religions in the world decide to unload on each other. Maybe they can wipe each other out.

For Christ's sake already! Somebody get him to a mental hospital or Assisted Living Home already. The man is deteriorating into delusion and psychotic narcissism before our very eyes.

How is it even possible that those around him are claiming, "Nothing to see here. Just another normal day with the President. Move along. And no asking questions".

And I thought he had lost it when he allowed CPAC to order and buy a full size golden statue of him for last year's CPAC convention. ------- nuts. And MAGA is okay with this? I am blown away.

The guy has seriously lost his mind. Releasing a photoshopped picture of him as the Pope? Having a military parade on his birthday? How crazy does he need to be until someone who cares for him intervenes?

If Trump still has fantasies of ever getting a Nobel Prize then at this point I almost feel sorry for this guy's level of delusion.

I want whatever SCOTTS is smoking.

All joking aside, the one thing I have noticed over the years about rightwingers (and the further right the truer it gets), is that they have no sense of the need for BALANCE. Be it policy, philosophy, economics, social/racial issues, etc. Right-wingers believe it is their way or the highway, and alternative views be damned.

The most glaring example currently is Trump and MAGAs totally unbalanced (and unmeasured) approach to the economy. In their eyes (as set forth by their orange messiah) one size chainsaw, in this case TARIFFS, fits all... While completing ignoring the fact that the global economy is a finely balanced and lubricated machine. (Although I know the word "global" is a dirty word to right-wingers.) The global economy is designed so that everyone, most definitely the USA, is able to get everything they require at somewhat reasonable prices. Because MAGAs suspect "unfairness" in certain of the policies needed to maintain the balance, they prefer to just tear the whole thing down and declare victory, while also declaring the rest of the world will regret not falling in line. In this case, never mind the fact that a progressive tariff system that is currently weighted against the USA is needed to keep the rest of the complicated economic machinery running smoothly. To maintain BALANCE.

MAGA is just so ------- ridiculous and disconnected from reality. In this case, economic reality. If you doubt me, just HONESTLY look at what is happening all around us since Trump initiated his poorly thought out global tariff assault. It has been just one fiasco after another affecting pretty much every sector of the world economy. Smarter people than I have tried to explain this to MAGAts on this site. To no avail. The truth is, most of them really are too stupid to understand the need for such balance.

How low does it have to go before MAGAts are willing to accept Trump's culpability for this national economic disaster? Empty shelves? Full blown recession? 401(k) funds drying up? How low?

I see a fat, orange, narcissistic, demented old man. Controlled by billionaires.

Pure Trump. When you HATE the truth, make it disappear. 'Orange Puddin' Pie 101' now enrolling at an unfunded college near you.

Honestly, what pisses me off is all businesses including Mom & Pop stores have already increased their prices to take into account the new tariffs even on merchandise long before and tariffs took effect. Why should we pay post-tariff on pre-tariff goods? And don't get me started on what auto dealers are doing. Right now you would be a sucker to buy a new car.

Lies. All Liberal left-wing lies. Disseminated by lying leftwing fake news and stupid braindead Demonrats who believe them.

Why is it (and how is it) that every time a MAGA person on this site hears something that runs against Trump ideology their immediate response is either that the poster is "lying" or the person the poster is using as a source is "lying". Are MAGAs really so impermeable to unpleasant truths?

They take the meaning of "snowflakes" to a whole new level.

Open borders would be preferable to the chaos and suffering that MAGA is inflicting on ordinary people simply trying to live their lives and raise their children as best they can.

The word all you non-lawyers are looking for is the legal term"exclusion". That occurs usually at the airport when arriving and going through immigration. Or when crossing the border in Mexico and Canada. It is different from deportation. People first arriving may be excluded for almost any reason that is not deemed arbitrary or capricious. ICE is historically given tremendous latitude to exclude people. Usually people excluded include those who appearto have arrived in the USA to seek employment when all they have is a tourist or a student visa. One of the primary ways they verify that a foreigner truly is just a tourist is to verify their financial status in their home country. People who are young, don't have much money, or a set tourist itinerary are often suspected of really coming here just to work. They get excluded by immigration all the time.

Read this. Understand this. And you will have learned something all Americans should understand. It will also add a lot more clarity to what you all are attempting to to discuss. These tourists' sound like they were excluded, not deported. Legally a very substantive difference.

How clueless does The Orange Puddin' Pie have to be not to have fired that clown yet? Really an international embarrassment. And to think that his first choice, Matt Gaetz was even worse (if that is possible).

Send him back to Brazil. Or better yet, send him to the El Salvadoran SuperMax. What a parasite! Do MAGAs even feel as if he was unfairly targeted?

A Nooner will always suck so long as waterbrains such as Boaz, LFT and the gaggle of other MAGAts who come to this site are still allowed to post on it. Better no Nooner than a Nooner with Fishpaw, Gracie, SDT, and abusive idiots like that being allowed to lie, troll and insult without cessation.

That "popularity" number has nowhere reached bottom. It still has a long long way to go down the way things are going. Hell, it may eventually force Trump out of office. 47% of the people may say they like him, but you start bankrupting regular working class Americans by the tens of thousands and nobody gives a damn if Trump says out loud what they claim they are thinking.

Is Trump capable of feeling shame? He jammed this unqualified alcoholic buffoon down the nation's throat. And it turned out just like we all knew it would. Next up: RFK Jr., and Kristi Noem are up next. And shame on the GOP in Congress for allowing any of this in the first place.

This is the issue that drives MAGAs completely nuts. They absolutely do NOT want so-called "illegal" immigrants to have the right to due process. Doing things fairly and the right way slows everything down. The right-wingers can't deal with any type of delay. Truly the chainsaw approach to important legal issues.

Once again the Catholic Church will face a dilemma at the upcoming conclave. Keep heading in a direction of compassion and tolerance laid out by Pope Francis or hit the brakes with a conservative' new Pope.

Or, as the Christian tv commercials during the Super Bowl this year pointed out, the Lord Jesus and his parents were refugees seeking asylum in Egypt. Amen.

Republican lawmakers asking for smut? Gee how many times have we seen and heard about that before? lol
