Only 40k died during the blitz in WW2, and I'm pretty sure that sounding the air raid siren was a good idea, even if it caused a "panic". Maybe we should stop warning when tsunami's are coming, too. How many people would die in the panic trying to get to high ground? Would it even be worth it? He lied about the virus on many, many occasions.

Student debt forgiveness won't be easy to pass. Over 50% of Americans support it though. I'm just curious why the Republicans are ALWAYS against things popular with Americans. Last time I checked, they were the group who didn't want a government making big brother decisions for them. A government of the people should act not just in the interest of the people, but coincidentally with what ideas the people favor and want.

I won't. You're free not to defend this kind of silliness. Quick question, which president said, "I always wanted to play it down". For a group that doesn't want government making decisions for them, the Republicans didn't mind that for some reason. Bottom line is hating on Biden is just because he won. There's simply no other reason than people are butthurt their guy lost.

So delete the thread if it's silly

He will never have more votes than he had last time. You don't pick up voters by insurrections. He's finished as a politician.

Whataboutisms ALWAYS make the person look dumb, even if it's factual. It used to be simply called deflection, and was always the weakest stance.

Now we move onto the Republicans falling in love with MTG, while they bash AOC's credentials. It's all a bunch of nonsense.

Once again a Republican leaves a huge mess, but this time the clowns are only going to give the new Democrat president 3 weeks to clean up that mess??? Now THIS is juvenile!

I'd prefer if people just stop using the tactic, then we won't have to use the term. Topics like this are stupid anyways. Extremism is the problem, not which side is bringing it. It seems like there's more extremists than sane people.

I was done with it before impeachment. There was zero chance in hell he would be convicted, but also zero chance he's ever re-elected. If a president who lost on his Covid response wins after an insurrection, I'll eat a shoe.

According to Trump's defense team, the Democrats should be filing a dereliction of duty impeachment charge, and this time taking more time to gather evidence. So far his own lawyer has said he lost the election, should be criminally charged, and impeachments should have line by line charges. Oy vey! The only problem is he said impeachment is for removal. Well, he decided it would be ok for a president who formed an insurrection to stay in office for another week. One could only beg the question to McConnell, "is it possible he does more damage in the week you let him remain in office?".

Mitch McConnell basically said that he was guilty as hell, but we had to let him go, because the arresting officer didn't read him his rights. To the Republican nutbars that's the equivalent of complete and total vindication. Wayy too many people live in an alternate reality.

I'll give you an example. Hitler killing 6 million jews is worse than an American soldier killing a POW after they killed his buddy. There's clearly a difference there, right?

Did that really happen? If so, I'd say it wasn't due to BLM. It was simply opportunistic criminals

Yeah, but did you see her death certificate. People are saying.........

The most serious crime so far is entering a restricted area. No murder charges at all. I'll put a large wager that the president walks away with a great pension/benefits. Heck, he may even be president again?? We shall see. The justified murder comment is a cheap shot. There's a difference between someone dying for a movement, and someone dying for sheer stupidity. Maybe not for the families involved, but there's certainly a difference.

The major difference is one situation was due to a true injustice, and the other was borne of lies spread to support the will of one evil man.

The cherry on top will be that no one is criminally charged as the ring leader, and those involved get light sentences. No one will be held responsible for the death, destruction, and lasting impact on our country. THIS IS MAGA!

How do you get them to vote for their own demise?? I can't even understand why these people want to literally die in their seats. Retire, and enjoy what's left of your life ffs. It must be a massive rockstar like power trip.

Pretty much all American politicians are scum. You kinda have to choose which slimepit you want to endorse.

The second part wasn't meant for you. It merged it there

I won't argue Bernie got screwed, probably more than once, but it's still not the same While people were dying, and people were calling their loved ones thinking it may be the last time they talk, Trump was calling to see if the insurrection was getting anyone to change their votes. Even if you don't believe he's responsible for this, he is undeniably a complete and utter POS of the highest magnitude.

I'm still waiting for the video of Trump physically dragging them all into the Capital. Until then, this is all just political theater. 😉

People were literally being killed at that exact moment. Seriously dude, c'mon

Meanwhile in Oregon: In the view of the Oregon Republican Party, what transpired on January 6 was not an insurrection and the rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol were not supporters of Donald Trump. Rather, the uprising that the world witnessed that day was a “false flag.” Its aim, according to the party, was to discredit Trump and “advance the Democrat goal of seizing total power, in a frightening parallel to the February 1933 burning of the German Reichstag.”
