This election is about whether we will have a democracy or not you have 2 choices a wannabe dictator or back to normal. The 2 Cult members are putting Dear Leader over country.
Dumb x 100 but "muh democracy" is my favorite dumb person slogan

Rest assured, I don't use the word "cult" because libtards on TV tell me to. I no longer watch political opinion shows very often. I catch an episode of Gutfeld occasionally, but that is for laughs not news or opinions.
Trump has a lot of good points, such as his courage when faced with hostile interviewers, debate moderators, and audiences. He can speak better without a teleprompter than either Harris or Biden can read a teleprompter. Harris recently got caught reading from a teleprompter at a Townhall event. Imagine how the media would respond if Trump distributed a script to reporters and then read his answers from a teleprompter. I wish that Trump were more articulate, like Vivek Ramaswamy, but I like the fact that he is not afraid to take questions from the media or audience with no advanced preparation.
I honestly cannot think of anything good to say about Kamala or Biden, and I don't recall any liberals touting their strengths in this forum. If Kamala were elected, there are some serious questions about whether she would be the first black woman to be elected president because she may have fabricated her family tree. Think about that. She was the first woman of Indian ancestry to be elected to the U.S. Senate, but she claims that she would be the first black female president if she is elected. Trump made this point in front of an audience consisting primarily of black members of the media. That kind of courage is part of the reason that Trump's support among black males is soaring.
I don't feel bad about not being able to think of anything good to say about Kamala. Maga Nuts can't think of anything positive to say about her either. Maybe OSH can come up with something.

Do you not realize how stupid the position that you are espousing is?

As for Pence not voting for Trump, I don't blame him. I believe that he did the right thing by signing off on the slate of delegates. Trump had plenty of time to pursue relief in the courts and he may have prevailed had he not put Rudy Giuliani in charge of the effort and relied on celebrity lawyers instead of election law experts.
The fact that Pence holds a personal grudge against Trump is understandable, but it is no reason to put this nation at risk by supporting Kamala Harris. She is an international laughingstock and she has not even won a national election. Kamala's frequent word salad episodes are regularly featured on Australian TV. She is becoming a household name there, and not for good reasons.
I still have not seen any reason to vote for Kamala Harris. It seems like you and OSH should be able to get together a short list of reasons why people should vote for her. If the only reason to vote for her is that she is not Donald Trump, then just say so.

Here's one of Trumps recent gems. And to think, Trump supporters were fixated on dementia with regards to Biden:
This man clearly has something wrong with his mind.
“Many countries, they do that, and then all of a sudden you hear that they’re leaving Milwaukee, or they’re leaving wherever they may be located. It’s very sad to see it… and it’s so simple. I mean, you know, this isn’t like Elon with his rocket ships that land within 12 inches on the moon where they wanted to land, or he gets the engines back.”
“That was the first I realized. I said, ‘Who the hell did that?’ I saw engines about three, four years ago. These things were coming — cylinders, no wings, no nothing, and they’re coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle, boom.”
“Reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? He’d have eight circles, and he couldn’t fill them up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I don’t know. I don’t know. Couldn’t fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles. They were so beautiful. It was so beautiful to look at. In fact, the person that did that was the best thing about… that level of that circle was great, but they couldn’t get people.”
“So they used to have the press stand in those circles because they couldn’t get the people. Then I heard we lost. Oh, we lost. Now we’re never going to let that happen again, but we’ve been abused by other countries. We’ve been abused by our own politicians, really more than other countries.”
Tens of millions of troubled Americans , and dozens of BGR members , are gonna vote for that man to be president again. Explain that to me, someone.

Joe Biden can't find his way off of a stage. He recently reached the podium and forgot who he was supposed to introduce. He shouted into the audience asking who was next. The gentlemen from India, who had been seated on the stage behind him finally stood up and came forward.
Democrats who care anything about this country should have been demanding that Joe Biden resign the presidency at the same time that Kamala Harris was selected to replace him as the party's nominee. Thanks for demonstrating your hypocrisy on this issue. When I see that Trump has a fulltime caretaker present to guide him off of a stage, then I will demand that he resign.
If Joe Biden is too senile to run for president, then he is too senile to be serving as president.

I honestly cannot think of anything good to say about Kamala or Biden, and I don't recall any liberals touting their strengths in this forum. If Kamala were elected, there are some serious questions about whether she would be the first black woman to be elected president because she may have fabricated her family tree. Think about that. She was the first woman of Indian ancestry to be elected to the U.S. Senate, but she claims that she would be the first black female president if she is elected. Trump made this point in front of an audience consisting primarily of black members of the media. That kind of courage is part of the reason that Trump's support among black males is soaring.
I don't feel bad about not being able to think of anything good to say about Kamala. Maga Nuts can't think of anything positive to say about her either. Maybe OSH can come up with something.
As for Kamala, she's objectively a rambling midwit at best who you wouldn't hire at gunpoint to assign any task in your business to. Well maybe if you were a pimp.
If I were a pimp, I would not hire Kamala Harris. She already did her stint. I don't think that I would hire her to run a brothel either. That laugh is enough to scare away paying customers.

Trump has a lot of good points, such as his courage when faced with hostile interviewers, debate moderators, and audiences. He can speak better without a teleprompter than either Harris or Biden can read a teleprompter. Harris recently got caught reading from a teleprompter at a Townhall event.

Here's one of Trumps recent gems. And to think, Trump supporters were fixated on dementia with regards to Biden:
This man clearly has something wrong with his mind.
“Many countries, they do that, and then all of a sudden you hear that they’re leaving Milwaukee, or they’re leaving wherever they may be located. It’s very sad to see it… and it’s so simple. I mean, you know, this isn’t like Elon with his rocket ships that land within 12 inches on the moon where they wanted to land, or he gets the engines back.”
“That was the first I realized. I said, ‘Who the hell did that?’ I saw engines about three, four years ago. These things were coming — cylinders, no wings, no nothing, and they’re coming down very slowly, landing on a raft in the middle of the ocean someplace with a circle, boom.”
“Reminded me of the Biden circles that he used to have, right? He’d have eight circles, and he couldn’t fill them up. But then I heard he beat us with the popular vote. I don’t know. I don’t know. Couldn’t fill up the eight circles. I always loved those circles. They were so beautiful. It was so beautiful to look at. In fact, the person that did that was the best thing about… that level of that circle was great, but they couldn’t get people.”
“So they used to have the press stand in those circles because they couldn’t get the people. Then I heard we lost. Oh, we lost. Now we’re never going to let that happen again, but we’ve been abused by other countries. We’ve been abused by our own politicians, really more than other countries.”
Tens of millions of troubled Americans , and dozens of BGR members , are gonna vote for that man to be president again. Explain that to me, someone.
Joe Biden can't find his way off of a stage. He recently reached the podium and forgot who he was supposed to introduce. He shouted into the audience asking who was next. The gentlemen from India, who had been seated on the stage behind him finally stood up and came forward.
Democrats who care anything about this country should have been demanding that Joe Biden resign the presidency at the same time that Kamala Harris was selected to replace him as the party's nominee. Thanks for demonstrating your hypocrisy on this issue. When I see that Trump has a fulltime caretaker present to guide him off of a stage, then I will demand that he resign.
If Joe Biden is too senile to run for president, then he is too senile to be serving as president.
10-14-2024, 06:58 PM
If Mike Pence won't vote for the Mango Mussolini, then why should you , BGR? Everyone on here should ask themselves that question.
10-14-2024, 06:59 PM
Because Pence is establishment silly

Trump starred on a television show where he fired people publicly. He never stopped doing so after he was elected president. It is why so many former Trump administration members show absolutely no loyalty to him. Actually, it goes well beyond that, an unusually large number of his former administration officials are openly hostile toward him. Why do you think that is? Do you think that I am the only person who paid attention to how he treated his own employees, or if I don't type it here, where maybe a dozen people might read it, people will never know what happened?
I think OSH and Maga Nuts are wearing off on you. If all members do in this forum is insult the other side and pretend that the party and candidates that they support are perfect, then what's the point of spending any time here?

Jet, here is the list of former administration officials who Trump hired and subsequently fired publicly. Some of the people on the list, such as James Comey and Reince Priebus should never been retained or hired by Trump, but my point was not that they should not have been fired, but they should have been allowed to go quietly. (Comey is an exception, I would never had hired him and I would have fired him publicly because he was hostile toward Trump from the get-go.)

Please notice how long it is taking for anybody to post reasons to vote for Kamala Harris, besides she is not Donald Trump. I am not a Trump fan, but I have no trouble sharing what I consider his strengths as a candidate. OSH and Maga Nuts still have not posted anything positive about Kamala Harris. Democrats could have randomly selected a name out of an old phone book and those two would have voted for him/her/they/them/it.

So Rex Tillerson via twitter is all you got lol
10-14-2024, 08:54 PM
The tweet came shortly after Rex Tillerson returned from his debut trip to Africa, on March 13, 2018: “Mike Pompeo, Director of the CIA, will become our new Secretary of State,” President Donald Trump wrote. “He will do a fantastic job! Thank you to Rex Tillerson for his service! Gina Haspel will become the new Director of the CIA, and the first woman so chosen. Congratulations to all!”
Tillerson was the first Cabinet official ever to be fired on social media; Trump only got around to calling him some three hours later. The sequence appeared to be a calculated snub: Trump had come to dislike Tillerson, who’d called him a “moron.” John Kelly, then the president’s chief of staff, later made a point of noting that Tillerson had been on the toilet when Kelly had phoned him in advance of Trump’s tweet to tell him that his dismissal was likely
So Tillerson is a gutter ball for you, want to try again?

AI response:
Here’s a list of former Trump administration officials that Donald Trump personally hired, later fired, and referred to using derisive nicknames:
1. Rex Tillerson – Secretary of State
- Fired: March 13, 2018
- Derisive Nickname: “Dumb as a rock”
- Trump reportedly clashed with Tillerson over several policy disagreements and later publicly insulted him, questioning his intelligence.
- Fired: September 10, 2019
- Derisive Nickname: “Mr. Tough Guy” / “Wacko John Bolton”
- Trump and Bolton had significant foreign policy disagreements, and after Bolton’s departure, Trump frequently referred to him mockingly, accusing him of warmongering and incompetence.
- Fired: November 7, 2018
- Derisive Nickname: “Mr. Magoo” / “Very weak”
- Trump was critical of Sessions for recusing himself from the Russia investigation, often insulting him both publicly and privately, likening him to the bumbling cartoon character Mr. Magoo.

You continue to dodge my question, which was who did Trump publicly humiliate that didn't punch first? Making a firing public isn't humiliation by itself, it goes with the territory.

Congratulations to all!”Really, Jet, do you think that there is anybody in this country who is unaware of Trump's use of childish nicknames and public insults of former allies? Firing somebody via Twitter was a classless act. Trump's management style may make for good reality TV shows, but the style does not translate well to real life. If he is elected, prospective administration members should think twice about accepting job offers. When you treat people who you hire badly, it makes it more difficult to hire good replacements for them.
Tillerson was the first Cabinet official ever to be fired on social media; Trump only got around to calling him some three hours later. The sequence appeared to be a calculated snub: Trump had come to dislike Tillerson, who’d called him a “moron.” John Kelly, then the president’s chief of staff, later made a point of noting that Tillerson had been on the toilet when Kelly had phoned him in advance of Trump’s tweet to tell him that his dismissal was likely
So Tillerson is a gutter ball for you, want to try again?

People leave administrations all the time without the real reason for the change ever made public. Name another U.S. president of either party who has engaged in as many public feuds with former administration members that he hired. I have not included people like Nikki Haley, Mike Pence, and Chris Christie, all of whom had the audacity to run against him in 2024.

Trump had nothing to gain through the public firings and plenty to lose. You are not going to convince anybody, whether they support Trump or oppose him, that it is a good practice to publicly fire people from your own staff instead of allowing them to leave quietly after accepting their resignation. Do you think it is simply a coincidence that so many of Trump's former staff members have turned on him? That never happened to Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, or Obama.
(Joe Biden is not aware of his surroundings enough to publicly fire anybody. They could just show up for work the next day, introduce themselves to Biden and thank him for hiring them. Biden would never know the difference.)
