I tell you what. I'll start an abortion thread so that everything happening in this current "discussion" can be contained there and be conveniently ignored by anybody who doesn't want to read 15 pages of back-and-forth pissing matches. It's not funny or interesting at this point. Fuck!

Hopefully, some moderator can keep it on that thread, too.
Hey, knock yourself out. I'm not saying not to do it, but I believe we've tried that before. Inevitably, the topic invades multiple other threads. It's like playing Whack-a-Mole.

Backwards 1500's ideology ................that would be protecting turtles prior to hatching with the full force of law and BIG government, while simultaneously ripping a child from the womb without blinking an eye. Bizarre, twisted, backwards, liberal ideology, all in the name of avoiding inconvenience.

So. Marine Le Pen has been called the female (or France's version of) Trump. She has been polled low but has won the votes to take her to the May 7th voting. I'm asking this in this thread because of the Trump reference and also because it seems that there are enough people in France that want change any way that they can get it.
What does everybody think of this turn of events in France?
She's polling low again right now, but do you think that she has a legitimate shot? Will France undergo it's own "Brexit" from the EU? (Fraxit)

There's pretty clearly is growing sentiment in France (and other countries) for what you're saying.

I don't follow French politics, but I think the big key difference here is she's not running against Hillary - the other candidate is a center/center-right moderate without a history of scandal and corruption.

She has no chance which is a shame. Her opponent is the guy who said that terrorism is a part of life and the French sour just get used to it.

And he's got higher ratings than 9/11.
TRUMP: No I have, it's interesting, I have, seem to get very high ratings. I definitely. You know Chris Wallace had 9.2 million people, it's the highest in the history of the show. I have all the ratings for all those morning shows. When I go, they go double, triple. Chris Wallace, look back during the Army-Navy football game, I did his show that morning.

AP: I remember, right.


TRUMP: It had 9.2 million people. It's the highest they've ever had. On any, on air, (CBS "Face the Nation" host John) Dickerson had 5.2 million people. It's the highest for "Face the Nation" or as I call it, "Deface the Nation." It's the highest for "Deface the Nation" since the World Trade Center. Since the World Trade Center came down. It's a tremendous advantage.
The whole interview is available here: https://apnews.com/c810d7de280a47e88848b0ac74690c83

Absolute embarrassment from our Republican President.

It's not a zero sum game. We can experience wins in the economy and still have Trump be an embarrassing, narcissistic, insecure buffoon. Just because we've rolled back on an overly regulatory stance toward capitalism doesn't make him less awful as a person. The two can be, and are, exclusive of one another. I'm very happy with my portfolio gains I also criticize his child like behavior on a daily basis. I know this is becoming less and less common in society but it is actually possible to be pragmatic about things and not blindly support or hate everything.

Most do not condone many of his personal comments and/or some of his tweats. Most are adult enough to separate personal issues from the duties of the office and the much-needed policies to achieve economic growth, and get government off the backs of business and job creators.

"IT SAYS STUFF I AGREE WITH SO IT'S FOR REALZ!!!!"

That's the most annoying thing about today and our technology. There's so much stuff out there that people just gravitate towards sites and people who have their views and act like everything else is trash, leading to certain dolts acting like virtually every national news organization is in bed with their opposition, but BAH GAWD that amateurish-looking blog...IS. THE. TRUTH.

Just search for a few more articles by Kyle Olson. It's fucking laughable.

There's a reason he's writing for website that looks like it was created with Geocities circa 1998.

Lol, that was a primitive looking website. A middle school kid could have done better.

The message is perfectly valid as illegal crossings are down over 50% overall, and in some areas (as indicated in the article) down 90%.

Except this is a seller's market; that was more of a buyer's market manufactured by liberal politician's who forced lenders to loan money to people who were unable to repay their loans.
