Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
Could a president ever become a dictator? That would be impossible. The constitution has too many checks and balances for that to ever happen. This is a scare tactic that some people actually consider and created by scare tactic experts. The major fear is the US becoming a far left liberal economy. That is what we should be afraid of. The US could go bankrupt if liberals get their way.The Greenies have created massive inflation by curtailing energy production. The US went from an oil exporter to an importer.
Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
Major? Depends on whom one talks to.
Really? We shouldn't be afraid of a potential President who says that he's going to prosecute his political opponents for revenge? Or one who says that media outlets which oppose him should lose their licenses?
A common cry among Republicans, particularly Trumpers, yet the actual data shows that the economy does far better under Democratic administrations than under Republican.

When one takes over the Government they rewrite the constitution. That is why they are called a DICTATOR. Your train of thought is that he follows the rules. The only rules available are HIS RULES

The USA is a net exporter of petroleum products, and has been since 2020.
It is also the world's largest exporter of gas - both natural, and LNG.
So SFA to do with the greenies.
Inconvenient facts that have been ignored before, and will be again this time.

Why has the Biden administration been emptying the strategic oil reserves? That certainly alters the numbers.jackspratt wrote: ↑October 28, 2024, 10:36 amThe USA is a net exporter of petroleum products, and has been since 2020.

Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
The largest release by Biden was in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine in order to keep prices stable. Some economists have estimated that had Biden not done such a large release, gasoline at the pump could have risen by as much as 50%.
But, like their god Trump, his sycophants don't want to get into the details.

Thanks Glit for your postings. It gives me something to do with my retirement time. Checking your postings is definitely enjoyable for me
"Biden isn’t advertising America’s record oil boom
Biden is not “waging war” on American energy. He’s boosting it."
Come up with some more so my work can continue

Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
The US constitution can be amended (not altered) but the process requires a bit more than the whim of a president. The last amendment submitted was in 1971 (26th allowing 18 year olds to vote) and the last one ratified (27th to do with laws affecting congress salary) only took >202 years.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/about-the-wh ... 7%20times.
" In order to prevent arbitrary changes, the process for making amendments is quite onerous. An amendment may be proposed by a two-thirds vote of both Houses of Congress, or, if two-thirds of the States request one, by a convention called for that purpose. The amendment must then be ratified by three-fourths of the State legislatures, or three-fourths of conventions called in each State for ratification. "
I don't see an easy way for even a narcissist like Trump to manage such an extraordinary undertaking.
May be time to look at a few other sources of news other than the MSM. Think about the hit pieces being spread on Tulsi, RFK Jr even the Green Party's Jill Stein as the election draws close. Perhaps look at the beloved Democrat Party of late with critical thought. Weren't they proponents of free speech, against the forever wars and standing up for women's rights to name a few? So crazy how those values are the opposite now.
IMHO the more VP Harris speaks with her flip-flop, word salad, nothing burger, scripted narrative, the more people will vote for the Trump even if they don't like him or not vote at all. Guess that's why she is so shy of long form discussions.

Yes. The Trump cultists are, by and large, an uneducated group.

Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
I'm certainly not a cultist but I am smart enough to know that Kamala is an airhead and way too far left. I would think the voters, including the Trump haters know this. We'll know in just a week or so if voters realize just how stupid she really is.

Anefarious 1, will you make the same assumption “uneducated” about those democrat voters who cross the aisle and vote for Trump in 2024.

Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
Asking such a question demonstrates ignorance of basic statistics. Some democrats voting for Trump next week proves what? I can assure you the vast majority of democrats are voting for Harris. So what is your point? We do know that old white uneducated males love Trump (you figure out why) yet even some of that demographic will vote for Harris as not everybody in this group continues to fall for years of Trump's chicanery. A lot of people can discern a man of horrific character when they see it.trekkertony wrote: ↑October 28, 2024, 6:26 pmAnefarious 1, will you make the same assumption “uneducated” about those democrat voters who cross the aisle and vote for Trump in 2024.

Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
both candidates are akin to 100 liter containers of fecal matter.. The electorate will decide which one stinks the least and vote that way... If Harris wins it won't be for her vacuous policies, or promises to go to the center. It will be, once again, as in 2020, that she is NOT Donald Trump...

Re: Donald Trump Is Unfit To Lead
I guess that just proves, as it did in 2020, how vacuous the Republican party is that it can't come up with an electable candidate.
Any vote that keeps Trump out has got to be a good vote.
