Did you watch President Trump's Town Hall in Iowa?

[exitseven]

It was on Hannity on Tuesday. He was animated and talked about how he will fix the country. He will have a challenging 4 years if he is elected.

TRUMP 2024

[Miristheiss]

Really?

I thought his previous 4 years were pretty good. The economy was booming, unemployment was at all time lows, we were energy independent, the world was at relative peace, we were getting immigration under control and getting control of the border.

Since Biden has taken over he cut oil supply, inflation is through the roof, Russia has started wars, the border is a disaster and the country is being overrun with people breaking into our country.

I prefer to just base my decisions and attitudes based on reality. What do people actually do. There is a sick ploy used by many in politics to just deem every opponent as "the devil", they are just pure evil, they are a racist, a nazi, a "phobe" and "ist".

I am aware that this is just a tactic to get their way. Give me some concrete, real world policies and cause and effect things that occur when candidate A is leading things and when candidate B is running things.

These people that just want to run around calling everyone evil and a nazi and a racist and a dictator and a threat to everything, I tune all of the foolishness and lies out. I know that the weak and easily frightened and ignorant just lap this up and don't even use their brains and logic to analyze policies and what actually happens when one candidates policies get to run.

I know many out there have just listened to MSNBC cry racist, fascist for 6 years and that is all they can believe. That crap is nonsense. If Trump runs I'm sure we won't get "your economic plan last time didn't work, even though unemployment was down, the economy was booming... it was ineffective because A, B, C", "your foreign policy was ineffective because A, B, C, mine will be better because I'll do X, Y, Z", "your rights and freedoms under candidate A were weakened because A, B, C, I'll do X, Y, Z"

What we'll get is "he's a racist, he's a tyrant, he's a nazi, he's a sexist, he's evil, how could you vote for evil, the world will end."

Only fools listen to that idiotic drivel.

[strateguy632]

trump was "great again" but seriously i mean it.

[Daniela1982]

Sounds to me he is looking to get assassinated before he can become President. Hey, maybe he will finish The Wall. What we need is something like from Escape From New York, high walls and shoot to kill.

No, but I just found part of it for those that want to check it out.

[exitseven]

Trump has the ability to reduce a problem to it's simplest components. He does not worry about who gets pissed off in the process. Special interests do not stop him from getting the job done. His solutions are based on common sense. Stimulating the economy by drilling for oil. Reducing crime and deficits by mass deportation of illegal aliens, affecting foreign policies that will benefit America. These all have net gains for America. His methods will work because they worked before.

[Jennz6]

Go Trump

[Jennz6]

“GO TRUMP” !

[OldBlue]

You’re right. Most all the stuff is so damn simple. The only reason it’s not getting done has to be corruption. The only thing that can save America is term limits. Biden couldn’t get a job as the Walmart greeter.

Thanks for the MHO.

[ohsheeT]

Well I guess it sounds like he was asked how he would fix the country.

Did anybody see dare to ask him how he's going to destroy the country.

When Trump became president he had an opportunity of a lifetime to probably become the best president we've ever had and he blew it just like he blows everything.. he's a liar he's a cheater he's a thief why in the world would anybody want him as a president.

Did a lot of good things when he was president but look at all the bad that has come out of it that he also did it's going to be 10 times worse if he's elected this time why in the world would you want anybody like him representing you or your country.
I think of all the good things that Trump could probably do but all the bad things outweigh them by tenfold easy

Look at everything that is hanging over Trump's head right now as it is and he knows the truth he knows that he can go to jail to prison and why would you want somebody like him to represent.

Thank you if Trump could bully his way out of it if like he's more or less has done but if you could do that and get away with it he would be doing it he's not a good human being that's my opinion and he won't get my vote

When Trump got elected and people were crying about it I said this is not about Trump's presidency this is about Trump's fall for all the bad things that he's done to people to get to where he's at and I'm sure there's a lot and I'm sure there's a lot more to come I know thank you I don't want him to be the President of anything.
That is opportunity and everybody sees what he did with it things are not going to change they would get worse because he has to prove that he's innocent he will do whatever it takes to cover up lies.. you can see that through Giuliani through all his other throw aways that he used

[strateguy632]

see the reply here by miris.

[slatyb]

He has no plan, and did nothing when he was in office besides play golf. Trump was going to "do infrastructure". He did nothing. Who did infrastructure? Biden. Trump was going to "do health care". Who did health care? Obama. Trump did nothing but make empty promises while failing to fulfill the most basic duties of the office.

[Avicenna]

Ever heard of something called Congress? I guess Democrats like Presidents to be dictators. It also helps if you don't have rabid Democrats illegally executing a soft coup against you. Despite that, he did accomplish some things, including trade policies that even Joe Biden hasn't reversed and reducing regulations that hampered small businesses in particular.

As for golf:
www.ajc.com/.../

Obamacare is hardly anything to be proud of either.

[slatyb]

@Avicenna The Republicans control the House and still Biden gets things done. Trump was mostly absent. He didn't get anything done because he didn't propose anything. He boasted about a lot of plans but produced nothing.

[Red_Arrow]

@Avicenna About the golf... According to the article you used, Obama golfed about every 8,8 days while president. According to the same article, Trump golfed about every 5.9 days in office. Much more often than Obama.
As for dictators, have you listened to Trump? He is openly stating (bragging) that if elected he will go after everyone who disagreed with him. He will use the military against our citizens (completely illegal!) He will change voting laws to prevent people he does not like from being able to vote. There is your dictator.

[RealMarek]

Well, to be fair he started sort of enforcing immigration law and this had the effect of raising real wages of low and middle class labor. As for health care, all Obama did was give a massive boost to big insurance companies and hospitals.

[bingbongbangbung]

How much did the CIA pay you to write the post fellow Mockingbird asset?

[bingbongbangbung]

@Avicenna just ignore these government paid trolls

[Avicenna]

@Red_Arrow: Given the civil liberties abuses under Obama and Biden as well as Trump’s record of having been in office for four years and most definitely not having been a dictator, your claims (which are just repeating Democratic Party propaganda) are laughable. But we really do need to fire the Nazi totalitarians in the federal government hired by Democrats as “public servants” even though they’re actually extreme political appointees.

[Avicenna]

@slatyb: Biden gets what done? Abusing executive orders and regulatory power? Pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into very corrupt Ukraine? Presiding over illegal censorship and surveillance? Persecuting political opponents? Impoverishing loads of poor with high inflation? Only a totalitarian would be proud of that.

[Dargil]

You are old enough to know better. But TDS has overcome you.

[exitseven]

@slatyb Despite being impeached twice and hounded every day by a hostile press, social media censors and democrat operatives President Trump will be remembered as being one of the most effective presidents since WW2.. He did more before breakfast than Dementia Joe does in a whole day.
trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/.../

[exitseven]

@slatyb I don;t know where you were during the Trump years but this is how it really was. trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/.../

[slatyb]

LOL. He's already considered the worst ever by anyone but himself.

[Dargil]

When peoples' minds are frozen, like with TDS and antisemitism (guessing he supports Palestinians, too), they can't be reasoned with. They cannot be rehabilitated. They will die that way. Its sad.

[Red_Arrow]

@Avicenna Trump himself has been saying (many times) that he will take revenge on all people he dislikes and that will include many things which are completely illegal and that nobody will be able to stop him. I have watched many video clips of him saying these things, so I am not repeating any "propaganda". So will he do those things or is he a liar? Easy to see that both things are true.

[exitseven]

@Red_Arrow did you see the town hall? He said he will only be a dictator on Day 1 and the only thing he will do is close the border and restart the fossil fuel industry.

[Dargil]

Oh G0d! We can't have that!

[Dargil]

@Red_Arrow Another terminal TDSer has spoken.

[Red_Arrow]

@Dargil So you believe a terrible crime is okay if it is Trump doing it.

[Dargil]

@Red_Arrow What crime is that... again?

[Red_Arrow]

@Dargil Which one of the many that evidence has been provided already?

[normalice]

No, why watch a fascist talk about made up problems and grievances who is only running to avoid being held accountable for his crimes and only has a chance because millions of ragetards just want political violence? You can't even pretend to deny wanting political violence out of fear that if you put the lie that you don't want political violence in the universe it might in some way jinx the chances of it happening, and you can't have that.

[strateguy632]

the OPPOSITE, "avoid being held accountable for his crimes" your words assume guilt, that is itself a crime libelous slander. instead principle innocent until proven guilty. especially when accused during primary election time. and not AVOID he is taken to court now, so the opposite of what you said on this and each other "vague talking point".
you call him a fascist... but trump only has the BENEFICIAL parts of fascism, like tradition. he doesn't have the harmful parts which warrant opposition.

[normalice]

@strateguy632 we all watched him commit the crimes on television and then boast about having done so and then publicly announce he was running to escape being held accountable for them. This isn't an 'assumption,' this is a 'description,' and the fact that you are still standing by him says your motives have nothing to do with a genuine pursuit of impartial justice and everything to do with you just wanting political violence.

[msc545]

He will have a chllenging first four years in prison where he belongs. He is a threat to our country and to democracy.

[exitseven]

the cases are already starting to fall apart.

[msc545]

No, they are not. More wishful thinking on your part.

[exitseven]

The Jan6th one has no legs It was already ruled in places trying to keep him off the ballot. After that precedent has been set it will be hard to get a conviction for something that it has not even been determined an insurrection. Add to that the recent release of the rest of the video footage there is no case. The best the democrsts can do is to keep Trump off the campaign trail. However, every time theyu do this his poll numbers just go up.

[msc545]

He is going to prison.

[AviatorTom]

No,. It's Holiday Season, not Political Season... yet.

[Anonymous]

no, but i sure hope he is the next president again. because i cannot stand democrats or biden.

[AngryCarl2]

There must be all of twenty people there, they look like they were dragged in off the street and corraled up like cattle. But I'm sure Trump's best mate Hannity asked some searching questions.

If Trump ever becomes President again (unlikely) most of his time will be spent siccing the Justice Department on people he dislikes.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Nope. And don't get your hopes up. Trump won't be the Republican nominee.

The man is looking at several federal legal charges and serious ones too and he won't escape all those charges because the feds have around a 95% conviction rate on the charges they bring.

Trump will plea, and be fined millions and escape jail because he's part of the elite group.

So settle for Ron DeSantis as the Republican nominee because Trump isn't going nowhere.

[Anonymous]

No. And that's my home state. But It was well reported that Gov. Kim Reynolds has swung her support to DeSantis. I hear Trump was miffed about that.

[OlderAndWiser]

No, I didn't see it.

[SotiCoto]

He isn't president of anything now though, is he?
It is a damning condemnation of america that such a degenerate was ever elected to be in charge in the first place.

[strateguy632]

degenerate is irrelevant for "job description" for president or any job. trump wasn't a boy scout but he showed he can successfully run a country.

[SotiCoto]

@strateguy632 : You've got a funny definition of "success".

[andreasderjuengere]

On this picture the body language speaks much :)

I'm glad to NOT have watched that ludicrous display.

[OfDeath]

No I didn’t but those look like very uncomfortable chairs.

[zagor]

He is a blowhard who we can't afford again. What happened to boring but sane Republicans?

[strateguy632]

2 other rnc options that i recommended are niki haley or desantis of florida, both showed good policy, but in the end trump is probably better.

[OddBeMe]

He will have a challenging rest of his life from jail.

[gorydetails]

I didn’t. Had no idea it was on.

@OldBlue he had me at 00:40

[OldBlue]

Agreed. Conservatives love immigrants, but they need to play by the rules. How is that so fucking hard for the libtards to understand.

Check out the idiot that said this:

"He has no plan, and did nothing when he was in office besides play golf. Trump was going to "do infrastructure". He did nothing. Who did infrastructure? Biden. Trump was going to "do health care". Who did health care? Obama. Trump did nothing but make empty promises while failing to fulfill the most basic duties of the office."

This post is about Trump, but the idiot has to evoke Biden and Obama.

[Daniela1982]

@OldBlue At least Trump was right about several things. #1 is all the illegals Biden is letting in who could be terrorists for all we know. #2, they are giving Billions to Ukraine yet not one penny to shore up Social Security. Biden is senile yet idiots want to re-elect him. That way the people who are REALLY running America can keep on doing it while using a puppet as the so-called leader of the country.

[OldBlue]

@Daniela1982

This comment "That way the people who are REALLY running America" Just inspired a question that I will ask at some point tomorrow. If it's OK, I'll mention you.

My question will go a little something like this:

"As an American, does it sometimes leave chills running up your spine when the leader of the free world mentions "they."

'Who are these "they" people that won't let Joe answer questions? Why didn't Trump answer to "they?"
'Trump would spend 45 minutes answering questions on the lawn, while waiting to get onto Marine One. He didn't have a teleprompter, not did he have "they."

Reporter Sally: Mr. President, what will you do if China invades Taiwan.
Joey: Sorry, but they told me I can't answer that.

God where is secession when you need it?

[strateguy632]

in general you can flee with your family. not like communism can't leave. you can personally secede and leave, even switch citizenship. but states committed themselves to union, so can't secede.

[Dokieokipanic]

@strateguy632 I appreciate your advice and I have been working on second residency and diversifying outside the West, but the recent pandemic made me have second thoughts.

Also in theory states could soft secede by converting to territories. Yes there is a snowball chance in hell of it happening, but I wish we had better choices like Javier Milei, but I can dream.
