Beck [asked] the former president, “Do you regret not locking her [Hillary] up? And if you’re president again, will you lock people up?”

“….The answer is you have no choice, because they’re doing it to us,” Trump said, adding that he “never hit Biden as hard as I could have.”

    So, now you not only watch Fox News, you listen to Glenn Beck, too? Wow, buddy, you are our Man for all Seasons! Baha baha ha!

    Trump's bang on. If you SwampDemLovers think that GOPs won't do to you as you are doing to them, you're bonked out. Think today's Impeachment brouhaha.

    And, if Trump's convicted of anything? Oy vey!

    Back to the thread.

    I guess payback's a superbitch.

    These are nothing more than a chickensht way to take out a political opponent. IF these were real, why weren't these done three years ago? If the "evidence" was already there and this wasn't purely political harassment of a political opponent, they would have started the second he was out of office. They haven't received any different "evidence" in this time. There haven't been any changes to the cases (save for the Mar a Lago case). They are fighting over crap that has already been looked at and are put together ONLY for the purpose to take down a political opponent. I guess the October surprise from the GOP shouldn't be that much of a surprise.

    "These are nothing more than a chickensht way to take out a political opponent."<.b? -olde dude

    od, the man flagrantly committed dozens of felonies while he was president of the United States fer fucksake.

    So... then can I put you down as believing that going after someone who brazenly committed felonies when they were in public office and goes on to seek another term should be left alone about any crimes they committed the last time they held office?

    There are no indications, let alone any evidence, that Joe Biden or the Democrats or The Deep State is controlling any of what the justice department is doing regarding Trump.

    So you believe that a criminal should be left alone about their crimes if they are running for a public office? And I am certain, since you are no hypocrite, that you are also counting Joe Biden, who you believe committed crimes and is running for a public office...?

    So then I suppose that we will be hearing no more from you about any of the supposed crimes that Biden has committed according to you, since you believe that going after him for those crimes would only be a chickenshit way of taking out a political opponent...?

    Bill, the man flagrantly committed dozens of felonies while he was president of the United States fer fucksake.


    Ah but then...

    You refuse to believe that he ever did anything wrong. That's right. You believe all of the felony indictments against him are bogus. I recall now. You believe that he never made that call to Raffensperger threatening him to "find him" 11,780 votes.

    He never told a mob of knowingly armed people, that he himself gathered together for a "wild" time, to march on the Capitol and "fight like hell to get their country back, or they wouldn't have a country anymore".

    He never stole and refused to give back under order of a subpoena any top secret classified documents that they recovered from his home under a search warrant.

    As a matter of fact, none of the felonies that he is accused of and that there are mountains of evidence proving he committed... are even crimes!

    That's right. I just need to keep that all in mind when talking to you about this subject. I just need to remember how that tiny little nodule of brain rattling around in your thick skull works.

    po #6- od, the man flagrantly committed dozens of felonies while he was president of the United States fer fucksake.

    First, it that true, please name them. The "dozens of felonies while he was president."

    Secondly, you completely avoided the examples this is nothing more than a chickensht way to take out a political opponent.

    IF these were real, why weren't these done three years ago?

    If the "evidence" was already there and this wasn't purely political harassment of a political opponent, they would have started the second he was out of office.

    I'm reaching the conclusion that much to most of what po posts is lies. I've noted to po many times over the years that po can't possibly be this stoopid...that we're bein joshed.

    I believe Donna. I believe isle. But, po and Curt? I think they're yanking our chains.

    Could you please explain the logic underlying that conclusion please? Because you have never even once presented any evidence that anything I have ever said in here is a lie.



    Oh wait... Okay, I get it. Since you are the forum's resident liar here, that "conclusion" was simply another one of your lies.

  14. by Indy! on September 1, 2023 10:24 am
    Just a reminder in case your right-leaning brains are still blocking it out. The political spectrums according to policy. Yes - Indy is the farthest left (although I have not fallen off the edge). But look where you are - you're Biden proponents. Biden tracks farther right than George W. Bush. That's who you guys are these days. The Overton window has pushed you PAST the guy you thought was the worst president in history just a few years ago.


  15. by HatetheSwamp on September 1, 2023 10:27 am

    po,

    When I say you lie, I mean you are disingenuous. You don't honestly mean what you say. You ain't being truthful.

    When you...repeatedly...argue that Trump has committed numerous felonies, I refuse to entertain the possibility that you're even close to being that stoopid but that you are merely funnin with OD and pb because you know that the Bill of Rights is important to us.

    You just can possibility be that stoopid. You are joshin us. I know it.

  16. by Ponderer on September 1, 2023 10:29 am

    Thanks, Indy!. Boy, ya learn something every day.

    I had no idea that a person's entire political philosophy is solely and totally dependent on who they vote for or president.

    Who did you vote for again last presidential election, Indy!?

  17. by Indy! on September 1, 2023 11:33 am

    I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and pretend you're just trying to be obtuse, Pondy. you didn't just vote for Biden - you support him and his rightwing policies at every turn just like Curt and your wife.

    To answer the question, I voted for...

  19. by Curt_Anderson on September 1, 2023 11:53 am
    Indy,
    I give your charts about zero credence. There is a distinct lack of proportionality.

    For example, Reagan is to the right of Hitler?! I wasn't a fan of Reagan, but I wouldn't hesitate to vote for him if Hitler were running against him. It's as if the chart maker gave equal weight to every issue. I guess Reagan gets one point toward the right for ending the air controllers strike. Hitler gets one point for arresting, enslaving and killing Jews.


  20. by Indy! on September 1, 2023 1:20 pm

    Left - right represents economic policy, Curt. That's why the left side of the chart is marked "LEFT" and the right side of the chart is marked "RIGHT". Up - down represent authoritarian vs. libertarian policies. That's why the top is marked "AUTHORITARIAN" and the bottom is labeled "LIBERTARIAN". So Reagan being further right than Hitler merely means his economic policies were further right. The things you mention are what put Hitler at the top of the chart as an authoritarian behind only Pinochet - another brutal dictator.

    So you can stop worrying about agreeing with Reagan on everything. It doesn't make you as bad as Hitler. Almost - but not quite.

  21. by HatetheSwamp on September 1, 2023 2:11 pm

    I was going to note that, too, Indy. Reagan was as laissez-faire as anyone in the 20th century.

  22. by Ponderer on September 1, 2023 3:24 pm

    "you didn't just vote for Biden - you support him and his rightwing policies at every turn just like Curt and your wife." -Indy!

    I have no idea what you are talking about. Yes, I voted for Biden. Yes, I like some things he's done. No, I don't like some things he's done.

    So if you vote for someone for president, you are obligated... nay required to like and support every single thing they ever do? That isn't me, Indy!.


    So just for shits-n-giggles, tell me some of the right wing policies that Biden has done that I support.......

    Po- Considering I believe that our judicial system is on a witch hunt right now, What has he been found guilty of? That's the real question. Again, they could have done ALL of these three years ago if it wasn't politically motivated. But that's the only reason they exist. So according to state or federal statute, has he been found guilty of.

  27. by HatetheSwamp on September 2, 2023 5:53 am

    Just a quick technical point, OD. So far, for the most part, it's the weaponization of the Department of Justice and the FBI, both a part of "that feckless dementia-ridden piece of crap's" Executive Branch, that are imperiling our Constitutional Republic. That wacko Judge Chutkan in DC is the only part of the Judiciary who's a serious problem so far.

    GOPs are counting on the Supreme Court to bring actual justice to America. We'll see about that.

    But, it's Joe's corrupt DOJ that's the biggest part of the problem.

    As Jonathan Turley said in that video I linked, Biden's administration has made it necessary that the House fulfill its constitutional mandate.

    "Pondy - the Ukraine War for Profit." -Indy!

    America's involvement in helping Ukraine against Putin's savage aggression and attempted seizing of the entire country is something I fully support. As I do our membership in NATO. I would be supporting our involvement in this war no matter who was president. And my opinion is shared by a clear majority of Americans...

    WASHINGTON, June 28 (Reuters) - Solid majorities of Americans support providing weaponry to Ukraine to defend itself against Russia and believe that such aid demonstrates to China and other U.S. rivals a will to protect U.S. interests and allies, according to a Reuters/Ipsos survey.

    The two-day poll that was concluded on Tuesday charted a sharp rise in backing for arming Ukraine, with 65% of the respondents approving of the shipments compared with 46% in a May poll.

    Eighty-one percent of Democrats, 56% of Republicans and 57% of independents favor supplying U.S. weapons to Ukraine, according to the latest poll.

    The survey was conducted just days after Yevgeny Prigozhin, the head of the private Wagner mercenary company, launched and then called off a mutiny over what he charged was the Russian defense ministry's mishandling of the war in Ukraine.

    The findings appeared to provide firmer backing for U.S. President Joe Biden's policy of doing "whatever it takes" to assist Ukraine in recapturing territory that Russia seized in an initial assault in 2014 and its full-scale invasion 16 months ago.

    This is the first time that America has gotten involved with a foreign war that I have been in favor of since the second world war. And I refuse to be shamed for my widely held opinion.

    So... care to try again?

    you know that, far from any service
    to mankind that we are providing by
    stopping Hitler, the important
    accomplishment that you are all

    "Po- Considering I believe that our judicial system is on a witch hunt right now, What has he been found guilty of?" -olde dude

    Well there was.... Oh wait! None of the trials have even started yet. So I guess the answer to your question is "nothing". Well, other than slandering E. Jean Carrol who he tried to rape that is.

    So is it your contention that it is not possible for Trump to have committed any felonies until he's found guilty of any? So if there is a dead body on the ground riddled with bullet holes with Trump standing over the body holding a literally smoking gun and declaring, "Yeah I shot him! There's nothing illegal about that! A president is allowed to shoot anyone he wants to!", there has been no murder committed until he has been found guilty of it?

    "Again, they could have done ALL of these three years ago if it wasn't politically motivated." -olde dude

    Yes, yes... And if the charges and trials against him had been launched back then, you all would have been in an uproar crying, "What's the rush? Why has this got to be done so fast?". We know how you have-it-both-ways GOP's roll. I'm not playing that game with you.

    Apart from a confession, in this constitutional republic, even the deplorables and the despicable are innocent until proven guilty.

    Why don't you just move to a place where lynch mobs are legal and hope Trump drops by for a visit!!!!!? Keehee.

    I'm not asking for it both ways, and I resent you "believing" that you know what I'm thinking. Had they went for him initially, I would have thought this was much more of a real trial and not the typical kangaroo court in a shithole third world dictatorship. This is purely political theater.

    Is he guilty? I don't know. We'll see. Just ditto what Lead said to you.
