Funny how the truly mush brained deranged on this board hate Trump, but are getting the e conservative world they supposedly desire thanks to Trump. Even Big Mike getting what he wanted regrets his supposed vote for Trump.


For your point to be true, the US had to be giving USAID to Canada, BC, and we had been doing so for 100 years. LOL that is beyond nuts.

I know a huge booster that pulled all of his support from where he received his advanced degree(School A) and built the school of accounting where he received his four year degree(School B). He sent his daughter to christian schools for her entire life and when she came back from School A, she was an atheist commie.

The high information voters!


Compared to me, all of you are low information voters.

A pollster classified people as such based on their inability to accurately answer which party controls each house of Congress (House/Senate). It's more of the electorate than you might think, lol.

And it's also accurate to say that Trump did very well among such voters in 2024 and they are swinging hard against him in 2026. So it's time for you to be mad at them.

Charitably stated, such people have limited ideological priors.

This is the kind of thing you point to you when you are about to lose the national House vote by almost 10%, and you are in grave danger in Senate races in GOP by double digits states.

It wasn't that long ago that the Republicans had an iron lock on GA and AZ, both of which are swing states trending. NC was a solidly R state ... we'll see how much longer that lasts. And VA and CO were swing states.

It's almost as if voters/coalitions change.

Very true. Plus, a few years back, before Virginia was a swing state, it was solidly red, like GA, NC, AZ, CO. Another silly myth that is repeatedly posted is that people are leaving states because they are Blue and moving to states because they are Red. People move for many reasons jobs, weather, cheap land, cheap housing, family, to go to school, and I doubt politics is anywhere on that list. How do we know besides basic intelligence, some of the fastest growing states are those that were red and are turning blue, VA, GA, NC, AZ, CO.

OH MY GOD A LEFTIE WON AN ELECTION. THEY MUST HAVE CHEATED.
Your blindness to the obvious is amazing. The math doesn’t math.



Your blindess to obvious facts that are available maybe isn’t as amazing as much as I give you credit. The election result you apparently support is a ******* joke. Lulu used his personal attorney who was appointed to the Supreme Court to keep areas where Lulu voters were strong open extra hours while the more rural locations did not receive that information because…they were rural. The timing was completely beneficial to Lulu. This needed to go to the election judges, not to Lulu’s personal attorney turned SC judge.



There is a reason I ignore the vast majority of your posts. You are willfully unable to accept truth even with factual evidence presented. This joke post you quoted is funny, because it’s true.

BTW, the all caps post you made was very Trumpian. Congratulations. Little by little you are assimilating.

Huh, who knew?? We have been told the opposite on here.

No. There is no comprehensive national figure for the exact number of homicides committed by illegal (undocumented) immigrants in the US in any given year or overall.⁠Reuters⁠Politifact

Federal crime statistics (FBI Uniform Crime Reporting and related systems) and most state data do not systematically record the immigration or citizenship status of offenders. As a result, no official nationwide count exists for homicides by people unlawfully present in the country. Researchers and agencies, including the Migration Policy Institute, have confirmed the absence of such national statistics.

I think the problem with "willfully unable to accept truth" rests with you. You literally take Twitter slop as conclusive proof. I do not have any comment on allegations of cheating in Brazilian elections, other than Bolsonaro, Sr. also questioned the results of his last loss (which occurred while he was in power, so he seemed like he controlled the state processes during that election). I am therefore skeptical of Junior's claims about cheating, but that is not absolute proof (it would be his obligation to verify the allegations and challenge the election legally, rather than with an attempt to swarm the government buildings ala his father).

Also you are not very smart, this is a major hindrance in discussing anything with you. Not being able to understand complex phenomena is highly correlated with belief in conspiracy theories (a big part of the populist brand).

I do not support either Lula or Bolsonaro, Jr., as I think leftism and populism are both bad forms of governance. You strongly appear to prefer populism, based on the Twitter slop you share. Again, there is a reason I think you are stupid.

Also, the reason leftists have lost in South American elections is that they were in power, and citizens in those countries are unhappy with them. USAID had nothing to do with this. I know this because I am not an idiot. At the same time leftists were losing in SA, the most populist leader in the free world (Orban) was losing in Hungary. Weird how USAID wasn't needed to defeat him (separately money in politics is generally overrated, unless you have none).

Huh, who knew?? We have been told the opposite on here.

In fact, no one has said there is an exact total. Partly because it's impossible to know, not all homicides are solved. Of course, you can identify metrics that give you a very good sense of homicide rates among various groups, as the Cato institute has done.

But for those who actually want to be informed, here's a decade long study of homicide convictions in Texas. Native born populations have the highest homicide conviction rate, followed by illegal immigrants. The lowest - legal immigrants. Completely predictable.

Well Pelosi had something to do with it, too.


Read what he posted. He never had Obamacare he had Blue Cross Medicare Advantage (Advantage is a consumer rip off and Blue Cross is high end cost) Medical costs have greatly increased for all private insurance, even corporate self insurance, due to the cost of medical, pharmacy and hospital care. Not Obamacare. That is as disingenuous as blaming current inflation and the economy on Biden.

This looks like “democracy” won the election despite Flavio, the authoritarian, giving his best effort. /s



Dumbcoach fails to acknowledge that Bolsonaro’s party has actually conceded (meaning it doesn’t actually believe the widespread fraud claimed on this message board and by American far right personalities).

Here’s a piece on the passport issue. Sadly, everyone involved in this - Lula, the Bolsonaros, and so on - are corrupt as all get out. THIS IS WHY SMART PEOPLE REJECT THE FALSE CHOICE BETWEEN LEFTISM AND POPULISM!

It’s not an either/or situation. You think that forcing private insurers to cover the uninsurable had zero impact on costs? Do you ever use common sense?

They weren't forced to cover the uninsurable without payment. The costs were spread among the millions of insured. The US picked up a good chunk of the premiums for many formerly uninsured. This happened 16 years ago, but it is causing problems now. Go back to the RW web and see what other crap you can repost without insight.
