The Real timschochet

You’re correct that the ideas I listed are incompatible with the Qu’run and many of the main tenets of the Muslim religion. The problem is they are also incompatible with the Bible and many of the main tenets of the Jewish and Christian religions. Individual members of each of these religions simply choose to ignore the parts of their religion which conflict with the ideas of this country,

One of the original rides, personally designed by Walt Disney, which must bother the hell out of @Cdub100 and all the other bigots around here and everywhere. It’s a tribute to globalism, woke, and diversity.

Are you saying that UCLA doesn’t matter to you as a Big-10 school? I’m schocked.

And Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration specifically for white men. I don’t care. The words apply to all of us, everyone.

Really? I stand for freedom, the rights of the individual, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the words of Emma Lazarus as written on the Statue of Liberty. What do you stand for?

Maybe because I have never promoted violence?

You’re wrong. And you’re mentally unbalanced. You don’t strike me as a liar but I think you’re worse.

I’ve stopped answering your questions, feel free to figure it out.

At the present time owning a Tesla is unpatriotic. If Musk sells the company that will change.

So much bigotry here.

First off your information is incorrect as usual. There are plenty of non-citizens in this country who have the legal right to be here, including Venezuelan refugees. Second, you proved yourself to be a bigot by posting taco images after celebrating the deportation of non-violent undocumented people. In the past your comments about transgenders have shown you as a bigot on that subject as well.

He wasn’t illegal you stupid bigot. The Venezuelan refugees were on legal visas. The only justifiable reason to send them away is if they’re gang members. If they’re not gang members we had no right to remove them under the law that Trump invoked. Human knows this and is pretending not to, which is why he’s a bigot and a thug. You apparently don’t know it which is why you’re a bigot and stupid.

I watched Tom Homan on ABC’s This Week. Such a thug, “All those guys were gang members; so we sent them back; we’re not messing around.” “How do you know they were all gang members?” “Because my guys told me so, okay?” “One of them is a former soccer star who has never been in a gang. His tattoo looks a lot like the gang tattoo but it’s actually of a Venezuelan soccer team. Now he’s in the prison in El Salvador and not allowed to see his lawyer. His lawyer says he was seized and sent there and never got due process or a chance to prove that he wasn’t in any gang.” “Hey look I’m not gonna discuss individual cases with you, all right? If my guys say they’re gang members then I’m satisfied. End of story.” The Gestapo would be so proud…

Personally I don’t care about current polls. I base my analysis of the elections of 2026 and 2028 on the following simple factors: 1. The tariffs haven’t really kicked in yet. They will after April, and a few months after that the public will begin to feel the impact. That’s when Trump’s numbers will truly start to crash. 2. Once the tariffs start it will be very difficult to undo the damage. The pain will last us for years: higher prices for everything, an economic recession, higher unemployment. This in turn will ensure Democratic victories in 2026 and 2028. 3. The New Democrats coming in will not be to my liking. The public will be pissed off and ready to accept radical solutions. Look for leftists like AOC to win against establishment Democrats and against Republicans. This is what I think is going to happen. Keep in mind that I don’t want this to happen. While I will be glad when the MAGA movement is finally defeated, I would prefer not to have to see this country suffer pain in order to achieve that. I would much rather be wrong about the tariffs, or have Trump change his mind and not pursue the tariffs, even if it meant Republicans stay in control for the next decade. The tariffs are going to be awful for all of us. And I would rather have a somwwhat centrist Democratic Party (at least economically speaking) that is pro-business than see socialists take it over.

I’m no lawyer but this sounds like a really lame interpretation of the law to me. What foreign nation has invaded us or threatened to invade us? None. These are individuals coming here. There is a reason Trump has tried to back away from trying to use this law. It won’t fly even if you don’t get it.

I have a feeling it won’t matter who the Dems put up in 2028. They’re almost sure to win no matter who it is.

I am in Manhattan on business and I just walked by a HUGE anti-Trump protest. Lots of anti-Musk and Tesla signs. A cute little girl held up a sign which read “I am 4 years old and I am more mature than Donald Trump!” This is making me feel a lot better about America. Sometimes I read the stuff in this forum and it depresses me. I have to keep remembering there is a lot of good people out there and they’re starting to wake up. Finally.

I was upset with the media after the election but not with Kamala. She did the best she could and I wish she had won. My opinion of her hasn’t changed.

Ha! Jon whatever you think is wrong with my views you should know that I’m hardly representative of anyone but myself!

If Republicans attempt to run with your argument (Social Security was never meant to be a permanent solution) they will get destroyed in upcoming elections. Destroyed. At the very least they will lose Florida (which is basically losing the election.)

Let’s keep in mind that the Big 10 is now pretty much the Big 16 or so…UCLA, USC, Oregon… so what you have is the cream of the old PAC-10 combined with the cream of the old Big-10…

I would but only because he’s dead.

Two messages for Democrats: 1. We are against tariffs. 2. We will protect Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Run on that platform we win easy.

And I seriously would again. She’s terrific.

I honestly think Democrats will win elections in many surprising places next year, so long as they stick to a simple message: 1. We’re against tariffs. 2. We will protect Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. That’s it. That’s the entire message. Stick to it they will win big.
