  1. Suggesting they should be investigated is a dictatorship? You should change your name to Stretch Armstrong
  2. My guess is he is using their internal polling which has a better number. I recall during the election when polls had Kamala wining the Presidential election and trump and team telling folks it was in conflict with their internal numbers.....and by who is President right now.......they were right. Then add, who are these Republicans that regret voting for Trump? None of my Trump supporting friends regret it.... Lets be real - are we to believe the same media that told us Biden ran circles around his staff??
  3. When all these trade deals go through and the market recovers, his number will be fine. Some folks don't understand it is tough to be a leader sometimes.
  4. Since Trump ran on ending woke.......I think it's fitting. Any of those you disagree with?
  5. Reality is not a deflection. There is no logical way Ukraine can win a war against Russia. Trade sanctions don't work, we've done them before. They will just trade with China and others. The only way Ukraine gets out of this is a deal and at minimum lose the land that was ceased under Obama or World War III. As soon as we jump in, WWIII starts. It's a shame Trump does not get credit from the left of trying to end bloodshed when Biden and Obama did hardly anything. It's almost like you want to go to war
  6. Because it is a nonsense post But if you want a few examples 1. America was great when my daughter didn't have to compete against males in sports 2. America was great when men could not use a woman's restroom because he "thought" he was a woman. 3. America was great when there was only 2 genders 4. America was great when the Government actually enforced immigration laws. 5. America was great when I didn't have to return my shopping cart to a corral the employees did. 6. America was great when I could go into a store and employees where doing work instead of playing on their cell phones. 7. America was great when sports teams could call themselves the Indians and not be cancelled. (props to PNG for refusing to change their name and props to Evadale for still flying the Confederate flag because they are The Rebel's)
  7. The war that was started before him, stopped when he became President, then started again after he didn't win re-election? What did both previous Democratic administrations do to END the war. This is Democratic nonsense to try and not give Trump credit when he does facilitate the end of the war in his term.
  8. Do you really believe that or are you trying to win an argument?
  9. I’m glad you posted this. You are so mad at the world that you can’t even contribute to a “memories” post without bringing up race. Are you mad at just the slave owners(only 10% owned slaves) or are you mad at your ancestors for selling them?
  10. Yup - Just curious, approx. how many members is this forum down since social media and Facebook? I remember this place was busy 17years ago when I joined. I joined just to comment on the STJFL fight between the Lumberton and Bridge City coaches.....SMH
  11. I can still remember the attic fan and window units before Dad remodeled and we got central air.....which was a HUGE DEAL - that was as life changing as getting cable and having more than 3 channels
  12. Yea, we kinda spun off......
  13. no worries
  14. I used to go down Gulfway Drive and pick up coke bottles, I remember getting a nickel for some. Me and a buddy would do that about once a month and make a few dollars. Then that crying Indian came on TV, and hurt our income because people slowed down on the littering.😃
  15. I'm 59 1/2........ And in a few months I will be 59 3/4 and at some point I'm going to be 59 15/16ths
  16. I'm 59 1/2........ And in a few months I will be 59 3/4 and at some point I'm going to be 59 15/16ths
  17. My Mom died of Alzheimer's. That is a horrible disease.
  18. I felt that....lol
  19. I don't think people realize how scary it is having politics or an agenda in school. People are a product of their schooling and upbringing.
  20. Yes, there are some really cool houses that are undervalued compared to the surrounding area. Most of your main insurance companies won't write home policies in PA, and the ones that do are twice what you would pay in Hardin County.
  21. Again....the PPP loans were for anyone with 500 or less employees that met the qualifications....And I believe hotels with over 500 could qualify. EVEN PEOPLE WITH THE LAST NAME OF TRUMP
  22. Banker here...... I probably did 150 -200 PPP loans. It was not walk in and walk out with money. You had to have previous records proving income, payroll, rent, etc.... 20% of the loan could be for rent expenses, the other 80% payroll. To be forgiven, you had to provide the receipts and upload them. You also could not terminate any employees. I had some customers that did not follow the procedures and they are having to pay back the loans. There was some fraud, people are being charged with fraud.....if there was fraud in this short term program, imagine the fraud in social security and unemployment, etc, GO DOGE You should know the difference between a PPP loan and a student loan, but just in case..... When my son signed his student loan, he signed a promissory note (agreement) to payback the loan at the agreed upon terms. He was given the money because he agreed he would pay it back. The PPP loans were also promissory notes that were signed in agreement to be forgiven if they met the criteria, and if they didn't, they agreed to pay it back. You cannot lump the 2 together because they were different.
  23. Harvard is free to do what they want. He is not banning any speech. He is not jailing anyone for speech. He is just not sending money if they continue the hate. IMO, it is a private school, with a 3% admission rate and charges more than most people can afford. That does not sound like they had the Democrats in mind for the working people. It is a white and Asian school with only 6% black students. Seems to me this is one of those we have to be the opposite of Trump issues.......🤷‍♂️ Get a four year degree at Harvard or for the same money have your forever home in 4 years..... Based on the 2023-24 academic year, the estimated total cost of attendance for on-campus students at Harvard University is $86,705 per year. This includes tuition and fees, books and supplies, room and board, and other on-campus expenses. Over four years, this would amount to approximately $346,820. In comparison, the average cost for private school tuition and room and board in the U.S. is $60,420 a year (for 2023-24), according to CollegeData.com, totaling $241,680 for four years.
  24. I actually love the location of PA.....I was born and raised here. I love the water and proximity to Houston/Galveston/New Orleans and Austin..... There are just too many things I don't like
  25. If she does not answer, you can find her answer on MSNBC 🤣
