  2. OH NO!

    Paul Ryan is not voting for Trump.

    And Trump lost John Kasich and Mitt Romney long ago.

    How will Trump ever get by now?

    Saint Ryan sits on the Fox Corp board though and gets 335k a year just for showing up for board meetings and picking his nose. And the lion's share of Fox profits come from their appeal to regular Americans -ie. MAGA- so there is that. Saint Ryan is apparently not above eating the fruit of the poisonous tree.

    I’m not so sure this was the right play by democrats. There’s not too much on the legislative agenda.

    You’re talking about some shit people don’t care about. Don’t forget Trump lost his last election without Ryan voters. Oh no!

    This election is going to be close. I’m not so sure your doing the math.

    Trump ducking the fight then jumping in after it’s over is totally on brand for worms.

  8. You apparently have been high on weed or off on another planet for over a year if you think I need to be lectured on this being a close election. Just because you are beginning to come around doesn't mean I have been off in a trance state.

    Last I knew, I have said consistently that at some point all the discussion will turn to what it will look like when/if the electoral count goes into the House upon failure of any candidate to get 50 per cent plus. Even if that exact scenario does not happen, it would indicate that I think we are looking at an election that is tighter than a bull's arse at fly swatting time. Ya think? Welcome to reality Comrade.

    Anyway, speaking of losers, just five minutes ago, I was watching Wolf Blitzer sitting with a panel that consisted of a bevy of Biden supporters including at least one former Biden senior campaign official or senior advisor. She says: "He is in the toughest position I have ever seen him in". Referring to the Genocide Joe problem. Then another one says (slight paraphrase) "He is going to meetings and telling people that he has not allowed Israel to proceed into Rafah and has blocked arms shipments and told Bibi that the U.S. will not support entering Rafah. But then he goes to other meetings and tells everyone that there is no daylight between the Administrations position and Israel's."

    HOUSTON. THE DEMS BE HAVING A PROBLEM!!!!!!!

    The truth is it’s nasty work. The Palestinians are being devastated for sheltering Hamas. The Israelis have no other option but to neutralize Hamas. It’s ugly shit. And Biden is trying to wash his hands of it while Netanyahu is taking American support for granted.

    I don’t know if there is a good answer because of how difficult Netanyahu and Hamas are. Both are willing to spill other people’s blood without end while they hang on to their political privileges and lives without remorse.

  10. The Palestinians are 99% Sunni Muslims.

    Yet they are governed by Hamas, an outfit that is a proxy for Shia Iran.

    At a minimum they need to be represented by a Sunni government so that they could at least have friends amongst the muslims in the region such as the Saudis, Egypt, Jordan, etc. Right now the other muslims in the region don't want to take any refugees because they don't want all the Iran affiliated terrorists in with them. And - as much as they do not want the palestinian or other muslim civilians killed there, they are nevertheless (although will not say so out load) cheering for Israel to move Hamas/Iran out- and there is no way to do it without just letting Bibi take Hamas out and then hand Gaza over to some kind of multicountry administrative district to prep them for some kind of next phase of government without Hamas. I mean this is the middle east. That will just take you to new problems but it is a time for at least a change of problems there in Gaza. Unfortunately there is a high civilian cost.

    Frigging Jordan, for example, is next door to Gaza, and even has more Palestinians than Gaza. Yet they will not take a single Palestinian refugee. And I don't blame them. They don't want all the Iranian influence that comes with it. But you see what I am sayin.' The Hamas thing is toxic for Gaza's relationship with Israel, but it has also been toxic for a relationship with fellow muslims and Palestinians.

    What a mess.
