  1. I have to agree.......and what is kind of funny, when this poster post something and I see 2 or 3 comments, I go check them out and they are just him commenting on his own post. This particular politics page is past discussions, it's who can one up each other.
  2. They had a reason. CNN is trying to play it off as "they have good chemistry". I personally don't buy that. If winning is the goal, you pick someone that can help you win. She would have won his state no matter who she picked........So they must be looking at something else...... Not the pick I would of thought
  3. The only people that are bothered by this would not vote for Trump anyway...... I can't believe there is no post yet on your girl's VP pick. I'm sure they have a reason for the pick, and it may work........but she would of won his state no matter who she picked
  4. He agreed to debate Biden - not Kamala. Trump has done debates on CNN, town halls on CNN........sit downs with hostile reporters recently......I think he has proven he will go to unfriendly networks to do interviews.......It's Kamal's turn
  5. This is where we differ - remember, the 2020 election was very close, and Trump gained 12 million votes. Almost every poll to date (even CNN) has stated trump is more popular today than ever.... People think Trump just goes off cuff without thinking...... I think Trump looks at the internal polls that his campaign provides and determines his topics..... If you watched that Georgia rally, people cheered when he made those comments
  6. As a former medic that worked for an Ambulance service for 8 years in Port Arthur, it's disturbing, more bluntly, disgusting that you have to take a class to give unbiased care.
  7. They are going to try Curious to see how they play this....
  8. yes they did she had another engagement
  9. -Remember, these national polls typically go by popular vote, which means nothing in a presidential race - New York and Cali can skew the numbers,,,,,,, So, the few of you that are alreading blowing up the balloons and chilling teh champagne better hold off.....lol [Hidden Content]
  10. If I remember correctly, you are in Jefferson county? I think you know I'm back in Port Arthur - the biggest shock to me is how expensive Home insurance is here. I know it has went up everywhere, but I'm paying close to $4000 a year. In hardin county it was be less than half that amount for a much larger property. I almost considered doing a major remodel and staying in the property, the ease to water and other locations make PA a good spot......Crime is non-existent (so far) in my area.....I just don't see it as a good investment plus the insurance
  11. And Democrats do this with every Republican...... That is called politics
  12. You kinda made my point. I agree with you that Biden said he would pick a black VP, and he did pick from a pool of minority women.....which would make her, by definition a DEI hire. I have no problem with that, a President can pick whoever he wants. The problem I have is the media and this administration denying she was a DEI pick...... If they think DEI is so great, then just admit it.......
  13. YES, I absolutely do. Calling someone out for announcing her heritage/race, then changing it is not racist. That does not even fit under the definition of racism. He is simply pointing out things she has flipped on. Democrats and haters will make it way more than it is, but I think people see through it. I mean, he accepted to go and get asked unscripted questions from a known hostile (to him) group of reporters. When is the last time Biden did that? Do you think Kamala will do a townhall with all Fox reporters or say Tucker Carlson? She won't, she has proven she is not good at off the cuff questions and answers.....She is horrible at it, she won't do it. She is going to try and win the election without getting in front of reporters........will it work, that is to be determined. Also, be careful what you wish for, that debate she is playing up (and Trump is not I believe by design) is not going to go as planned. The issue the Trump team is working out is different rules than Biden since she can actually speak........ It is amazing to me that Trump has been compared to Hitler, who is responsible for the murder of 6 million people.........the left thinks that is OK but is disgusted that Trump calls out Kamala.......I can't see where people might think she is Indian.....
  14. I think he has. He went up in the polls and it has shifted a little. Remember, national polls use popular vote. Popular vote has no bearing on electoral votes that the election is determined by. Look at the swing states....that is going to determine who wins
  15. I think his plan is to keep doing what everyone else tells him to stop doing. No one thought he would survive Jan 6th. His political career was over. Then no one thought he could survive the lawsuit's.....Then no one thought he could survive the criminal trials.....Then , not only did he get his case dismissed, he had a Judge rule Smith was illegally appointed as SC...then he almost was assassinated.......the entire time he just kept getting more and more support..... Then he makes Biden have to drop out.......then the media plays Kamala like the next Obama......we all know that is not true. We have Democrats happy that the nominee can ride a bike and climb stairs without falling and read a teleprompter without screwing up........Trump has not lost any votes, Democrats have just got loud.......it won't stay this way
  16. Careful......unlike Trump not being afraid to address black journalist, Kamala has yet to take direct questions from eager reporters....... I know you're more interested in beating Trump versus getting a good President. If you are honest with yourself, she was a horrible VP with no legacy other than watching the border get invaded.
  17. That is kinda the plan. I'm sitting on a good chuck when I sold my Lumberton house. I have a real good friend who is a contractor and builds homes. He will "build it" on paper, but I will do what I can and he will give me the time to do it since it's my money and we won't have a time line so to speak. Anything I can't do or does not make sense to do, he will do. I have a plan, just waiting for the right time to start it
  18. They are spoiled. My first house, brand new, I paid 75K in Lumberton in 2000, that was right before Lumberton housing went nuts.....lived there 5 years and sold it for $125K.......Now Starter homes are 200K.....crazy I just moved my Son(23yo) from a 1 bedroom apt in Austin to a 2 bedroom REALLY nice apt....2K a month. That is insane, but I looked at homes to purchase (was going to help him) - anything decent and over 1000 sq feet is 300K....lol
  19. 1. She really has not started talking yet...... 2. Trump has been in a number of debates with MUCH smarter people. Trump does not like to look weak. He will debate Harris.....I have a feeling he is letting her play this thing up........ 3. You were saying Biden couldn't lose.....until Obama and Pelosi said he could and replaced him
  20. My Dad raised 3 kids in a 3/1/1 in Port arthur. In 1983, after 2 kids moved out, he took in the garage, moved rooms around, added a large under roof back porch, including carport that attached to a 3.5 car garage he built. It is crazy what we get spoiled to
  21. That's not exactly true. There is an entire neighborhood behind the subdivision where I used to live in Lumberton called Westwood Village. The built brand new brick 1 car garage homes between 900 SF and 1100 SQ....I thought that was the dumbest idea ever......and everyone of them sold...... I'm keeping an eye on Silsbee for any deals. Due to house prices, insurance, etc.....they are now building 1300 sq ft houses for $170 sq ft....... $237,500 for a "starter" house....... [Hidden Content] You can come across some deals on homes that need work and are sold "as is" . I didn't really like helping and watching my Dad, but I'm grateful he taught me electrical, plumbing and carpentry so I can do 90% of the work that any house may need....you start subbing that out and your price doubles at least.......
  22. Read up from an article with pictures and facts instead of liberal talking points..... [Hidden Content]
  23. It was so close to the capital I can see where it was a threat.......lol You really need to research before you repeat MSNBC
