    I'd like to see sidney powell run against the democrat heroin cartel. I think she'd do great things.

    Lol...that’s a difference between folks I suppose. We drive almost everywhere we travel if possible. Traveling abroad we have to rely on public transportation of course, but in the US if we fly we definitely rent a vehicle. Another difference I’m guessing is destinations. We rarely visit a major metropolitan city for vacation. Boston and NYC being the exceptions. Been there, done that and don’t want to go back.

    But for instance, we’re lining a short vacation to Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont for June this year. Flying in to Portland, renting a Tahoe and driving around the countryside to see the sights, hike a bit and hopefully so a bit of [guided] fishing and whale watching.

    DeSantis is pretty shrewd, though. If a Republican has to win next time, we could do worse. It's good to see the right at least starting to lean back toward rational people.
    IF you were a patriot and you saw that the opposite political party over threw the government by stealing an election, and then prevented justice from being done through bribery, what would you do?

    That is a really strange post coming from the right.
    AMERICAN HISTORY ITSELF IS A TESTAMENT TO THE STRENGTH AND RESILIENCE OF AFRICAN PEOPLE. WE, ALONG WITH THE COURGE AND SACRIFICES OF CONSCIOUS WHITE AMERICANS, LIKE VIOLA LIUZZO, EVERETT DIRKSEN, AND MANY OTHERS, HAVE FOUGHT AND DIED TOGETHER FOR OUR FREEDOM, AND FOR OUR SURVIVAL.

    In America, rights are are not determined by what is just, fair, equitable, honest, nor by what Jesus would do. Rights are determined ONLY by what you can DEMAND.

    The only reason anyone believes the election was "stolen" is because someone who has never told the truth in his life said so.

    When political parties lose an election, they usually re-group, adjust their positions and strategize for the next one. They don't riot & try to win by getting fewer people to vote.

    Your argument is built on a specious* claim.

    Trump did not lie for personal gain and he always put OUR best interests and well-being ahead of all else.

    And the reputation the fake media (the media owns the political dishonesty 'title') has built around Trump can't stand up to scrutiny, so they made it virtually unassailable by making so many false allegations of lies to deter fact finders from even trying.


    *spe•cious spē′shəs►
    adj. Having the ring of truth or plausibility but actually fallacious.
    adj. Deceptively appealing.
    Pleasing to the eye; externally fair or showy; appearing beautiful or charming; sightly; beautiful.

    in what way?
    Mao builds on Confucianism, and the Chinese Han xenophobia -
    but it kinna works because the Chinese have a hive mind.

    Still the CCP goes about destroying Hong Kong , and Tibet, and takes over the littoral states waterways

    It's a malevolent force, nothing to emulate -and is certainly hostile to US interests

    Before Trump made any statements, we were getting reports of election irregularities all across the country all night long after the polls closed.

    We knew that there were shenanigans before Trump ever said anything.
