He turned into a basement campaigner, for crying out loud, and even before COVID his public exposure was being carefully limited.
His handlers certainly appeared to keep him on a short leash.
I doubt Politico considered that possibility.

He became a "basement campaigner" because there was a pandemic going on you Dummkopf. You really have no clue do you BillJohnson. Jesus Christ.

RIP

You don't get a say. Just sayin.

How much was your soul worth when you sold it to Trump nc Bill Johnson? Just curious.

Pretty much.
Hopefully Platner actually drops out soon. good riddance.

He. Has dropped out of the race.

What Trump has awakened will not end with his presidency.

What??
I feel for this guy, he didn't deserve this, sure he could have taken more precautions, but he doesn't deserve to lose a hand for it.
All fireworks are illegal and banned in California.
Lots of things are illegal and banned in CA, no one cares.

I don't. He should have known better. There are plethora of people losing body parts before him that he could learn from. Sorry not sorry.

I have no sympathy. Stupid is as stupid does.

We've been screwing over Iran since we removed the democratically elected president and reinstalled the Shaw of Iran. Look up Operation AJAX sometime and learn a thing or two.

Iran stuck three commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz consisting of civilians.
When are they going to stop?
How much damage must be done before they figure out they won't be controlling International areas of the Strait?

Trump is trying for a peace treaty.
It seems to be apparent he isn't wanting to go in and crush them like we could do.
To me, that looks like patience and hope backed by a show of strength.

Iran didn't draw first blood. Trump did and he is absolutely in the wrong regarding this,

I haven't a clue what road you're imagining we're going down.
It's Trump ... ... .so a bumpy one.

More like a dashboard road without an end in sight.

This country needs an enema post haste. It's the only thing that will make things better. Sighhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

You sure about that? Do "third world counties" even have real elections? I am gonna bet most don't. Winning 100% of the vote hours after the elections is a little more suspect than winning by a close count days or even weeks later.
Also ... Attempting an insurrection when the election doesn't go your way and then pardoning all the insurrectionists once you regain power is definitely some third world crap.

Bears repeating

That is really just a stupid thing to say.
Doesn't make a bit of sense.

Sure it does. Take a look at the average MAGA farmer. Their hatred for people who are different than themselves has bankrupt them. Of course that flew right over your head. I'm not surprised that you don't understand it.

Clown,
You are living in a make belief world if you think the major of republicans have generational wealth coming to them.
They just don't like liberals and what they stand for.

Their hatred will bankrupt them and I can't be happier.

Smiles. So freaking happy to see this.

Slavery, pedophilia, stoning .. all happening still today under Islam.

The same things happen in the United States except stoning. Oh and we give a pass to Saudi Arabia for doing all three. So perish you're holier than though.

It's pretty straight forward.
For every action there's a reaction.
So long as birthright was basically a question whether it will stand or how will be interpreted, there wasn't a clear course of action to take next.
The Supreme Court gave Trump a lot of authority establishing guidelines for entering America.
Until you enter the country, you may not request asylum.
So Republicans will likely do what always should have been done all along.

It's pretty obvious that you don't have a clue. Let's face facts.. the 14th amendment says anyone that is born on US soil is an American. Full stop

Now that birthright is no longer in limbo and has been settled in the court, just sit back and watch what ideas will come from Republicans.
You think Republican ideas are not popular with Democrats now, just wait and see how strict the guidelines will become to get into America and the punishments for breaking the law and comitting fraud.

LMFAO hehehehe hahahahaha that's hilarious.

Birthright citizenship is not the problem. Birthright tourism and similar activities are the problem. Focus on the problem. Legislate accordingly. An amendment has zero chance.

How would that work without violating the 14th Amendment. I'm curious.

Anytime Trump loses America wins. Just sayin.

BillJohnson is going to loath this. I am tickled to death that he will.

WhiteDevil was rightisright if I recall correctly.

Thanks for the update DarkVader. I'm glad I don't have to worry about either of them.
