How does this make sense: Trump blames the election results on him "not being on the ballot" and the shutdown that he and the GOP blame the Dems for?

Trump was busy in foreign countries. This should be a wakeup call for him and all Republicans. They need to concentrate more on issues that concern Americans. President Trump got off to a great start, He tamed inflation, lowered gas prices, started mass deportations, and identifying billions in waste and corruption. President Trump is too wrapped up in foreign affairs and trying to attain world peace. The rest of the world is not the ones who will vote in the mid terms and a successful first year will not mean much if he fumbles the ball during the second half.

My God I don't know what to make of this! Have you actually written something that is at least mildly critical of Trump? Is your membership in MAGA now in danger of attenuation or revocation?

Quite seriously. I am somewhat stunned you are even being a little bit critical of trump, I am encouraged by the fact that you seem to have finally achieved a bit of critical thinking which in this case is very important. Congratulations!

[Asker]

@msc545 I am also shocked!!! Even MTG has been seeing the light lately! Anything is possible!

[msc545]

Perhaps some of us like myself have not thought this through clearly enough.

Can it be that when leaders of the opposition act so badly and inhumanely that their followers actually begin to think twice about their devotion to that person? I would have said no but then I read the above post and I am beginning to rethink this. I guess if this really works we should encourage Trump to act even worse so he loses more followers or something like that.

@msc545 A math error is not as bad as not knowing the that kilos of fentanyl is coming into the country and killing thousands of kids

[msc545]

I see you are back to your old self. That didn't last long. So, "kilos of fentanyl," huh? Have you seen them? Do you know anybody who's seen them? Have you seen photos of it? Have you seen any evidence at all, or is this just another fever fantasy that you have?

[exitseven]

@msc545 Haven't you ever wonder that President Trump sometimes asks me for my opinion? I always tell it like it is.

[msc545]

Sure, he does. He is uninterested in any opinions but his own.

[exitseven]

@msc545 Once you get to know him he is a good guy.

[msc545]

I am certain he is not.

[exitseven]

@msc545 how can you tell.>? He is a nice guy who has a tough job to do.

[msc545]

He is a mentally ill criminal who has the personality of an angry rattlesnake. That's not very smart.

[loveslongnails]

The man is a buffoon. If you support him, you're one too.

Wants to avoid the fact that Americans are mad about the piss poor performance his administration has put forth.

He doesn’t care about the regular Americans. He is withholding funds to feed starving children. All while playing golf nearly 25% of his days in office to the tune of an estimated $100 million cost to the taxpayers. Fact.

[throwmeaway1111]

He is extremely stupid and so are his supporters. He is someone who refuses to take accountability for his actions. People are waking up and realizing that republicans are just in it for the money and to serve Trump. No one in their right mind would support him after this food stamp thing.

[goaded]

When did anything he said make sense?

Do you understand that you can't reduce the price of something more than 100%?

(There's a part in the video in that question where you see just 27% of Sherrill voters in New Jersey thought Trump wasn't a factor.)

The dems are at fault for the shut down. They have voted 14 times now to keep the government shit down.. The republicans have 53 votes, the democrats have 47, and there are 60 votes needed to reopen the government.. But the piece of shit democrats would rather see people starve than vote to open the government..

[Asker]

Really? That explains why Trump is APPEALING a federal court order to immediately reinstate SNAP benefits, right? Yeah... totally Dems fault.

[Opinion Owner]

It is, the money he is being told to use, he is not legally allowed to use. If you actually studied where it's coming from you'd know that, plus the emergency funds they want him to use are not enough to fund the program.. But I bet you didn't know that either.

[Asker]

Wow! Where did you go to law school? I know. I know. Those stupid deep state libtard federal judges don't know shit about federal law! Also, $6 billion in contingency USDA funds is plenty to fund SNAP. Please do your homework...

[Opinion Owner]

Oh and the clean cr that the republicans want to pass includes provisions to fund snap. But again you're not ready for that conversation.

[Opinion Owner]

If you did your homework, you'd know that the funds are only enough to give half benefits. Which the USDA is doing. That 6 billion is only enough to give all recipients 150 dollars each. Most are supposed to receive twice that.. But again math isn't your strong suit..

[DrPepper12]

MAGA better transition to a post Trump paradigm without fratricide.

Actually, forget that. I'm here for the uncivil war that's going to occur!

[msc545]

Sometimes Trump is funny in a really creepy way...

[BarryLiverstone]

He’s saying had his name been on the ballet Tuesday the republicans get more votes

[Asker]

Soooo... he's the only Republican worth voting for? How does this help the other Republicans? He also won't be on the ballot in the midterms. The GOP has been screaming day in and day out that the shutdown is the Dems fault, but now he's admitting that the shutdown lost GOP votes... for a shutdown caused by Dems? WTAF? This makes no sense.

[BarryLiverstone]

No other republicans are worthy of votes. He’s saying had he made more of an effort campaigning there would be more votes.

It doesn’t help other republicans.

[BarryLiverstone]

Yes he’s assigning blame for people voting for democrats that they were voting based on the shutdown

[BarryLiverstone]

Does that help clarify?

[Asker]

I don't need any clarification. He's correct that the GOP paid for being in charge of all 3 branches of Government and trying to blame Dems for the shutdown while Johnson refuses to call the House back in session to continue negotiations... and seat a duly elected new House member from AZ who was elected 6 weeks ago... preventing the single vote needed to break open the Epstein Files. Trump and the GOP weren't paying attention and got caught with their pants down... thinking Americans are stupid. He did make an effort to throw his weight behind Cuomo in NYC (his hometown) and it was a disaster. He refused to even mention Earle-Sears name in ads in the VA gubernatorial race. He should have done more. He probably didn't because of arrogance... or even he sees the writing on the wall. It's reported that he flipped out at the senatorial breakfast after the election. They have major damage control to do.

[BarryLiverstone]

If you don’t need clarification then why ask the question?

[Asker]

Looking for a rational answer. You didn't provide one. Nice try though.

[BarryLiverstone]

It was rational. Plus I answered with my gag username, not anon

[Asker]

Keep dreaming. My status doesn't matter. Why are you so butt hurt about it? No one gives a fuck except you. We post questions. We respond to questions. That's GAG. Period. Deal with it...

[BarryLiverstone]

You ask why but I don’t think you actually care to know. Peace

[Asker]

Why do people watch sports? There's your answer..

[BarryLiverstone]

People are entertained by sports.

[Anonymous]

Makes sense that it might have gone better for him had he been on the ballot.
Beaides, Democrats won the exclusive right to be the target of our negativity.

[goaded]

Why?

[Opinion Owner]

Because its the truth

[goaded]

Not really.
