July 18, 20232 yr Lefty 1: covid was such a gift Rational, reasonable Mike31mt: no it wasnt Lefty 2: yeah it totally was, just like 9/11 Sane, logical Mike31mt: those two are not alike. If they were, then what about Afghanistan? Lefty 2: that doesnt count because reasons, youre so dumb!
July 18, 20232 yr Just now, Mike31mt said: We werent measuring national tragedies, we're talking about if they were political opportunities or not. There was nothing anyone could have done about covid. Even if Trump dreamed up some obviously-BS national plan, it would have inevitably failed and you'd have blamed him anyway. It was a politically unsolvable problem, as evidenced by Bidens failure to do literally anything to stop it. We're going in circles. Yes, the fact that they're national tragedies is the whole point. Like I said in my original post, massive national tragedies rally the country. Like 9/11 and Covid. And I've already explained what Trump could have done. He couldn't have stopped Covid from spreading completely, but he could have acted like an adult who was president over the whole country, not just his rabid base of incels. Instead he acted like a paranoid, divisive weirdo who didn't give an F if anyone that didn't worship him died. He's a mentally ill loser who's incapable of empathy. And it showed during Covid.

Trump orchestrated the pull out 16 minutes ago, VanHammersly said: He released 5K Taliban soldiers And locked the Afghan government out of negations with the Taliban.

July 18, 20232 yr As far as the Covid effect, as a national crisis it absolutely could have been a political win for Trump. He simply failed miserably handling it. He could never get out of his own way. Somehow Boris Johnson, whose government can more readily depose poorly performing Prime Ministers, survived Covid. Had Trump the capacity to stand up and unite the nation, and the ability to execute, he would have walked to reelection. Be he has neither, and he was fully exposed by the only real crisis he faced.
July 18, 20232 yr Trump won against an extremely unpopular political figure who ran one of the most moronic presidential campaigns in the history of American politics. After taking office he was intentionally divisive and dragged the white house and the country through one scandal after another making him one of the most unpopular presidents in the history of the office with the lowest approval ratings since they started measuring them. He was always going to lose reelection.
July 18, 20232 yr Put on the "Five” to see how they would respond to today’s news. Their lead, people left on a plane during a heat wave. It’s all Pete’s fault.

Not to worry, all the details can be found alongside his healthcare plan in the book Kayleigh gave to 60 minutes

As an independent voter, much like yourself, I'm curious what the leading Republican candidate's plans are to get rid of this Ponzi Scheme. They're a conservative party, so their leader must have laid out specific policies to reduce spending. Do you have any insight on that?

I don't know why Trump didn't kill everybody's favorite "ponzi scheme", social security. He has overwhelming support of Republican voters on that, right?

I think the GOP should definitely focus on reducing the deficit since the Dems dont even pretend to give a ish anymore and base a large part of their platform on that fact. Maybe President Manchin will bail us all out of this mess.
