You have to hand it to trump, he knows how to put on a show.

Asking everyone to stand if you support America over Illegals...and of course the D's didn't stand. He had them walk right into that.
That's like when you want to trick your kids into doing something. You don't ask them to do it, you give them one terrible option and then the one you want. Clean your room or eat your vegetables. A win either way. (This is not my endorsement for Trump in any way.)

..we learned Dems miss open borders and still wish children were able to cut off their body parts... and 2.0 is a total badass who played the blue people like a fiddle. How satisfying it must be for 2.0 to give a speech like that after all the lawfare the left used to try and get rid of, and or try to kill him, literally. Hahaha.

You go dawg.

I just think it is concerning that Trump declares this as a golden age for the economy. A year ago he said the economy was horrific because he inherited it from Biden. What has changed dramatically since then? Prices haven’t come down except for eggs. The stock market has gone up so the rich are certainly richer. Inflation is down from its peak in 2022 following America re-opening from the Covid crises but it was dropping precipitously in 2023 and 2024 before he took office. I thought Trump said he was going to lower grocery prices dramatically and he promised to cut Americans utility bills in half his first year. The national debt continues to skyrocket as he spend all the DOGE cut money on ICE and the National Guard. I thought cutting the department of education, fema, and humanitarian aid was to help us get to a balanced budget? Not more huge deficits. Did you guys forget that Trump promised to eliminate the national debt in his first term? Not balance the budget, literally eliminate the national debt. How is that working out?

He's an entertainer but still going to lose the house and white house in 26/28 bc he's unwilling to do whats needed. If he deported the illigals, arrested corrupt dems, followed through on doge, and released the entire epstein list he'd be one of the greatest presidents of all time.

It works in all aspects of life!

I use that strategy here and people end up losing their minds.

Trump/Republicans aren't going to get the support they had in 24, especially with the youth. Being Isreal first and not willing to use power while he has the house/senate is turning away so many people. Turnout is going to be bad for Republicans which is what they honestly deserve. They can't even pass the save act which would ensure they win in the future. Dems are going to take the house and white house and then use the power to impeach trump, go after all their enemies and bring in millions of illegals again.

One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. "Oh, no," I said. "Disneyland burned down." He cried and cried, but I think that deep down, he thought it was a pretty good joke.

I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.

Number thing is he stopped the degenerate Democrats from winning and saving our country.

Everything is cheaper where I live, illegal immigration is being addressed, crime is down in black neighborhoods. Tax returns are higher. A good majority of the middle class has 401k, continuing the tax cuts. I Democrats had won they would have let them expire and killed the economy.

Yeah eliminate the debt on 4 years while battling court cases against his plan. Sure man

Most importantly Democrats arent in charge even though Republicans won't do sht for the people.

I wonder if we see a significant drop in voting come next election. I don't mean just for the R or D, I just mean overall. And then I wonder if that will impact things a bit. I don't know if JD has the ability to capture votes like Trump. For the D's, I don't think they have anyone right now.

They won with a brain dead biden and almost won with Harris/Walz. Newscum is a great speaker and will have the backing of the media, social media, celebrities, feminists and disenfranchised youth, plus add in the ballot harvesting/mail in voting fraud and Dems are looking good. Republicans/trump aren't reading the nation who are struggling and the democrats are united on saying that they'll bring down prices and trumps tariffs are to blame. If Republicans can't pass the save act, which has like 85% approval from everyone, they deserve to lose in the midterms so we can bring in a true america first candidate in 28.

You put JD and Marco on a debate stage with the two dumb beavers Kamala and AOC it will be cruel and unusual punishment for the Dems.

The problem is, they can literally run anyone, and have a decent chance of winning. How many millions voted for KH? She is a walking catastrophe of zero substance who has no business leading anything or anyone. Yet, tens of millions voted for her based on emotion. I doubt very much they can put up a worse candidate than her, and she didn’t really lose by that much of the popular vote. Thank God she did not win. There are more than a couple really solid R candidates that would do well, but, I have very little confidence in the people to vote based on a person's ability and competency rather than that voter's feels. There really needs to be some additional standards for people to be able to vote. It's why there is an age limit to it, you don't wont stupid and immature people voting, but that's got to be no less than a 1/3 of "adults" in this country at the moment, and no less than about 40% of the elected reps. They too should have to pass some testing to be able to run for a political position. If nothing changes, we are completely screwed.

All I know is that we all live in totally separate realities thanks to the media ecosystem we have. Trump is a delusional un-American lunatic, but to half of the country he's a big tough hero. It's not even something we can argue about, because we are being fed totally separate facts and totally separate versions of reality.

It was stupid of the democrats to pick a woman candidate. Trump won because there is a large contingent of the population that will never consider voting for a woman. Trump beat Hillary and Kamala. Trump can’t beat a man in a presidential race. He lost to Biden. BIDEN! Put any man with a pulse up there, Newsome for one, and Trump will lose by 10+ points.

People won't follow JD, mark it down

Marco is the better politician

Biden didn't get 81 million votes. Those are fake Covid era numbers.
