posted by CenterBHSFanNo, I meant the trans racial thing for Kamala because she ran as Indian while campaigning in state politics but ran as black for national politics. Poking fun at her, but props to her also because it worked.
This is where my autocorrect flubbed up because that's supposed to say that "right now he is bitching":
You mean biracial? Wtf is trans racial?
posted by jmogTo be fair, as much as the Ds in these confirmation hearings are just proving why they lost, many of the nominees are making themselves and therefore Trump look bad with some of their answers. This isn't going well for either side.
I thought Rubio's was good. Funny thing is, the Ds asked actual good policy questions.
If Hegseth would have been asked those same questions, I wonder if he would still be in the running.

Think of code switching with identity instead of accents.
Not really a "complaint" like the thread implies but it looks like, with the upcoming weather, the swearing in on Monday will be moved indoors to a hockey rink. A month ago, someone predicted that Trump would get shot on live TV in a hockey rink. This week, a 7 year old predicted the same. I guess they're both some kind of psychics or prognosticators.

I'm not really all that superstitious, but some things do make me wonder - like ghosts.
That being said, I hope those predictions are wrong. We really don't need the upheaval something like that would spark off. Like, seriously.

That sounds really stupid sorry lol.

Uh no. It will be in the capital rotunda, just like Reagan in 85.
There will be a watch party at the capital one arena, maybe that's what you meant.

Because it IS stupid lol
Edit:
Actually, it's not. It's a pretty smart move for a politician to know their audience. Kamala ran as an Indian woman in California and won. She ran as a black woman to further her career. Doing the trans racial thing, when you look at it at face value, got her all the way to Vice President. Like her or not (I don't) she pulled off a nice game.

No, your whole trans racial thing is stupid lol.
It's not real life.
People are not solely one thing,they are a whole mix of things. I'm sure you are not just one race or identity. You , like me, are a mix of different cultures and races.
I completely disagree with your entire rational and as I said, it's a stupid line of thinking.

It's real life. The dems decided to go all in on a topic that affects probably less than 1% of the population and probably has a lot to do with mental illness. They pushed it onto everyone and made people who legitimately disagree with it feel like they were hateful or bigotted. They were the ones who made it a major issue. People rejected it (and her) not because it is a main subject for them, but because it represents a forcing of values on people when those values are absolutely repugnant to millions of citizens.
Kamala is mad as hell and Bill Clinton having the time of his life. Pretty funny
I read his inauguration address. It was typical Trump. Not a fan of the whole Manifest Destiny part.
For someone that prides himself on no new wars, that will conflict with his Manifest destiny claim. That was also a very violent and bloody time in American history. I don't want to go back to that.
Thoughts on here on him changing birthright citizenship and the 14th amendment? Obviously, courts will decide, but thoughts on here?
I doubt the courts uphold it.

posted by ptown_trojans_1It won’t hold up. It was pretty stupid thing to say even if one doesn’t believe there should be “anchor babies” alllowed by law.

Yeah, an amendment should be a cut-and-dry decision.
However, I think you have at least 30 states that would vote to repeal. The Senate filibuster might be the only thing stopping it.
Not sure how many countries have birth-right citizenship, but I don't think it's more than a handful, if that, among OECD countries.
Looks like Trump pardoned most everyone for Jan 6 and commuted sentences for others.
Considering this board didn't think it was a big deal, probably support it.

I didn’t think he should have done it, but after the Biden pardons that came out yesterday and day I say F it, pardons for all.

Well I sure as hell don't support jailing people without charges or trial. Which is what happened with some, not all.
Wrong is wrong.

Definitely support most of them. They got railroaded by the justice dept and prosecutors (where was that after the BLM riots?). Lot of stories out there to read. The violent ones are questionable and I think we’re only granted clemency while they look into it.
Also got out of the Paris Climate bullshit, the WHO, and to stop funding the UNRWA. All good ones.
I wish I had time to pay attention to today.
I did see a pic of Melania's outfit. Bleh! Nice hat, though.

It wasn't a big deal. They went there to talk shit and yell, that's about it. WTO protests all over again.
And itt's not really an "insurrection" when most of the people were freely allowed into the building, walked around, then left.
"A threat to Democracy" - dumb people
Is this where we post good Trump stuff too? Bc the majority of his EO’s were bangers.
