This was a post by Shipwreckedcrew from X that made some great points. There are a few things that stood out that I bolded, the truck rang a bell..... Republican or Democrat, we can't hold the Government responsible for our own bad decisions. A person buying an 80K truck at 6% interest will pay 98K over the 84 months with a $1168 monthly note, then likely trade it in or get another truck once paid off. Ironic that this same person would probably complain about gas prices, when he could of purchased a 45K truck and put the other 45K in a savings account. Thoughts? The problem is there is nothing "wrong" with the "economy." Economic growth is rising and unemployment is falling. Prices remaining high because of PAST INFLATION isn't an "economy" thing. Home prices being high because of a shortage of affordable inventory for first or second time homebuyers isn't an "economy" thing. Buyers taking out car loans for 84 months at 15% interest rates, and being upside down in their equity for 36-48 months isn't an "economy" thing. Having a large portion of the college educated workforce emerge from academia with worthless degrees that employers place no value in for hiring purposes isn't an "economy" thing. Trump and the GOP are going to pay the price for an "economy" when the problems are not a feature of the "economy." They are a product of choices made by voters in their own lives. Gas prices have been expensive before. Interest rates have been high before. But I've never seen so many $60,000 pickup trucks and $85,000 SUVs being driven down the road ever in my life.

It would not be a debate, it would be your opinion..... It is obvious to me you didn't think out your comment or you realize there are none or very little differences.

Jack Smith is being questioned by Congress...... [Hidden Content]

So only policies - what MAGA policy differs from old Republicans......No links please, just your opinion?

As will 99.9% of all Republicans.

Explain?

I honestly can't answer that because I'm not sure what kind of disaster a nuke would cause if Iran had one. There are only a handful of people that know how close Iran was to a nuke, the rest of the world is speculating. I wish prices were lower, but so far it has not stopped me from going places I want or dipping in my savings, and I don't carry balances on my CC's. My Son is doing great. Honestly my only big complain is mortgage rates are keeping the used home inventory low. I want to buy an older home on a couple acres in Hardin County....

IMO - if we turn Israel loose, Iran will be an oil slick. Civilians will die If China or Russia wanted Iran to have a Nuke, they would have one. Putin invaded Ukraine under the Biden Admin, I don't think it is far fetched Russia or China could of slipped a few Nukes to Iran without that administration finding out.......but Both of those countries know Iran can't be trusted......and they are both closer to them than we are.....

We only know what they let us know. As far as reducing their capacity - if we didn't destroy it, we sure made it difficult to get to it. Trump has said we are watching if they try to dig through it we will hit them again. As far as worth it, what is you answer if the do get a nuke and use it? They have shot missiles 2500 miles - In that vicinity there are 20-30 significant US facilities and approx. 40-50 thousand US personal. What is the answer, wait and see? We can either be proactive or reactive......

5 US President disagree with you. Obama JCPOA was such a disaster that Iran was able to enrich 441KG of enriched uranium to 60%, a short step from 90% which could produce 10 Nuclear weapons. Baseless - NO

What would you do or what would you like him to do? Russia is invading Ukraine and killing innocent people China unleased a virus (that also killed their own people, and there is a GOOD change we financed some of it) If you believe the left wing media and a few posters on here, we are almost out of ammo. So do you want a war, want him to ignore him or want to try and "get along" and do what we can to work together? Trump was totally right when he said we spy on China as much as they spy on us. There is a reason for the old saying keep your friends close and your enemies closer........

#1 - Google is a search engine #2 - It is fact he stepped down - it is speculation as to why.......

Sources huh..... I guess we have not learned about unnamed sources...... Could be 100% true or 100% false....... But you post it as fact.......

Trump's net worth is about 7 billion. If he spent $500,000 a day, it would take him 38 years to spend it all, and tHat is not including the interest it would make during that time. To think he would jeopardize his legacy over that...........come on. People who believe that, believed he was a Russian agent (some still do) or Hunter's laptop was Russian disinformation.

of course not - Trump is Trump's biggest fan I was not accusing you of hating Trump - it was an in general statement.

Is it not true?

challenged is not breaking.....

Even if you hate Trump.......... This report shows Biden with the least amount of negative coverage of ANY President and Trump with the most negative coverage of any President....... I don't blame him - Biden with the least......while Obama who bankrupted healthcare is considered almost a God. Can you imagine if we didn't have the internet and independent journalist?? It makes me really question if we were receiving alternate facts back in the day when all we had was 3 local channels and networks......

Explain how Trump is getting paid and bypassing this entire department.......where most of the staff(at least 40) are are career employees and have been there many years.....yet not one whistle blower

There is no evidence that Trump sells pardons. The media does not even claim Trump is involved - that is just an outright lie

While I'm not sure if that is true - we can look at history....... Historically when oil is $91 a barrel, Diesel has ranged from $3.70 to $4.10 / gallon

I don't know of any Presidents that have been attacked and falsely accused as much as Trump. Perhaps you can give me an example of the media, FBI, DOJ and CIA covering up something like Hunter Biden's laptop for political reasons before an election.

I've said I don't agree with it..... However, the 1st amendment and media standards do not cover access. They can't just go anywhere they want. If we want to complain about access, compare how much Trump communicates with the media versus ANY President in history....No one has spoken more to the media.....

Not really a lie…..same thing really - tried to ban a reporter from Fox news and the networks banned together in protest and Obama administration backed down…… Lets not pretend Obama was not a snake….
