My memory Trump forces Insulin price reductions, at the end of a on the fly interview he says "if I go missing you know who did it Big Pharma" or words to that effect.I'm willing to give him a pass on that, as no man is perfect.
....but keep in mind, even in that clip he did not espouse that anyone would have to take it.
Trump may not be perfect, as no man is, but I still see his policies as having been better for our nation than those of any other potus in my lifetime.
Certainly better than those of the bidet.
Thanks. I thought I was craaaaazzzyyyy but I''m not stupppppid. At least there are two of us.All about The Donald's tremendous ego. Guy is too old anyway no Repubs in their 50's worth a damn. Really? Might not matter after two more years of The Resident in Chief.

Yea, I agree he shouldn't have done that.Trump attacks him twice just before Election Day.
Without a doubt Trump is better than Bidet but he made a lot of bad choices.Thanks. I thought I was craaaaazzzyyyy but I''m not stupppppid. At least there are two of us.
Unless DeSantis is a Trojan Horse that's not a bad thing. Might not matter at this point though.Ya no, this was all about TPTB setting up Desantis to beat Trump.

Of course Trump was better. ABC gum would be better than the bidet. LolWithout a doubt Trump is better than Bidet but he made a lot of bad choices.
The pro-abortionists can't even explain what they think an acceptable time limit should be.If a person cannot make their minds up in 15 weeks then they should never play poker for money, drive a car, or paint a picture.
Abortion is not a "RIGHT" and the states that were chomping at the bit just wanted their own laws. The feds have no right to interfer in how or what laws each of the states want to enact that was the whole point of different states if you don't like the laws in one state find a state that has laws that you approve of.Viking talked about it (Roe) belonging to the states. Understand that. But there were states chomping at the bit for the supremes to overturn Roe so they could enact their draconian laws. Had the supremes simply let Roe stand the way it was we wouldn't be having this chat.
They want it to be whenever they want at their convenienceI just find it hard to believe that people who believe that having a Right to abortion is the absolute most important thing to them, also have no opinion on what an acceptable amount of time to have one, would be.
You fail to realized Trump had little to ZERO influence of Congress for his first two years in office where TWO BUTT-Hurts ran the show. Butt-Hurt Ryan literally got his potus dreams dashed during the GOP debates, and even more so when his District DID NOT Re-elect him. He was made Speaker of the House to keep GOP control. He sabotaged all Trump's plans at the HOUSE level.Couldn't read the whole thread but will comment on what I did read.

Followed by "I might disappear for a time"....
Takes credit for warp speed and promotes other treatments, always promoting himself and attacking china.
Election is stolen.
Tries to maintain backing with public. Everything is always about Trump. Nothing can be done without Trump.
Guy in FLA becomes popular not only there, but nationwide for not just talk, but concrete, effective actions at the heart of what the public is worried about.
Trump attacks him twice just before Election Day.
Trump was a tool. By 2024 if there is an Election Day, the people need a new candidate, not some old entangled conman aka PT Barnum.
His talk was great, his actions not so much. How old is Trump now? He will be 78 by 2024 I guess.
Let's allow orangeman to retire to the golf course.
mmmmmmmmmoooooooooooooooooooo000000000000000000!
I think the term NPC describes them well.
I'm pretty sure everyone reading already knew what it meant.For anyone who may not know.
We are dealing with women of the reproduction kind. They want an "out" even if they never use it. They all know of people who had their lives changed by impregnation, they want the "option".I'm pretty sure everyone reading already knew what it meant.
....but what would you call someone who comes across as having strong opinions on a subject and claiming the moral highground, yet cannot define exactly what their position on the issue even is?
Compromise is impossible if one side refuses to define exactly what it is that they want. All they say is that they want more, without ever saying exactly how much more.
On this issue, abortion, they fight and scream for more than a 15 week limit, yet cannot say what they think the limit should be.
Edited to add: imho, that sounds a lot like how an npc would think. It hasn't been told what it should think about that part of it yet.
Last I saw, she was losing.Mursowski etc are conspiring to cock block the Senate for two years.
To do that requires compromise, but they won't say exactly what they want, so compromise can never be reached.I'm cool with keeping it legal but extremely rare, and early.
I don't understand why they can't be happy with that.I temper this with the fact that there is a morning after pill, which I have no problem with. A smart woman who made a "mistake" in a one night stand can eliminate the possible result before it takes seed so to speak.

That's all fine and dandy, but I just find it incredible that people with such strong opinions on it that it becomes more important than anything else in their lives, cannot say exactly what the limits on abortion should be.I'm a live and let live searcher. I actually try not to judge others simply because they have an opinion I may not agree with. We're all human with human frailties.

....and I responded to you in the way I have because you said that you have spoken at length with many women about this issue. It seems odd that what the limit should be, never came up in your conversations.
How can one know what they have is wrong, without also knowing what it should be?
At that point, I'd think I was talking with an npc that has not yet been told (programmed) what to think.

Then apparently they were too stupid to realize they already had that "out" for almost 50 years now.Really nothing to do with any time limit. Just the option of an "out" if they need it. Nothing more.
Joe, they don't want to lose it.Then apparently they were too stupid to realize they already had that "out" for almost 50 years now.
Then they shouldn't have taken the gamble of challenging what they already had, in court.Joe, they don't want to lose it.
Those activists are acting on those women's behalf. Why didn't the women tell them to not challenge it?Joe, I was addressing what I think is a common concern of the everyday female. Activists and politicians are another ball of wax.
Pretty sure I dislike as many Poles as I do all other race / ethnic / religious groups, about 90% on average.Last I saw, she was losing.
....and with a name like murcowski, I'd have thought you'd like her. MurCOWski? MooOOOooo!
Joe, no offense but isn't what you said a bit silly?Those activists are acting on those women's behalf. Why didn't the women tell them to not challenge it?
The way I see it, when you take something to court, you agree to let the court (or jury) decide your fate in the matter.
They made a choice, and lost. Now they want to throw a tantrum because they did not get their way? To that, I say tough titties.
....because that is what they said to their opponents for the past 49 years.
They coulda been happy with what they had, but instead reached for the golden ring and ended up falling off the merrigoround. That was pretty sTuPiD of 'em, if you ask me.
Especially considering the make up of the court they insisted on taking it to.
They made their bed, now they should stfu and lay down in it.
No, not really because that is what happened. They had the Right to abortion, but that wasn't good enough for 'em.Joe, no offense but isn't what you said a bit silly?
Who do think leads the charge for the pro-abortion side? Mostly the feminists, most of whom are women.am a member of what would be called the "PRO LIFE" segment of society, but I certainly can't and don't have any effect on what the self-appointed leaders do or say.
Think about it for a second.
