The Real timschochet

Next time Republicans cut spending will be the first time. In any case cutting spending does not bring down inflation as Argentina is about to learn, unfortunately for them.

1. I feel fine and my parents were married. 2. I care. Kind of. Well not really 3. I do give a fuk. 4. No it isn’t. 5. No I’m not.

I grew up in Westminster. Not too many liberals there. Why is this mom “liberal”?

I care less about Rittenhouse than I do about the conservative deification of him. Thats the sickening part.

And gas prices are plunging: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/22/business/energy-environment/gas-prices-thanksgiving.html Of course this gets ignored. If gas was higher all of you would be highlighting it.

Putting aside the fact that you’re 100% wrong and we absolutely should be involved in helping Ukraine, that spending is completely boosting the economy, creating thousands of jobs in our defense industry. And it’s pennies on the dollar compared to what we will have to spend on NATO if Ukraine ever falls.

And he has made it much better. Grow the economy by spending more on infrastructure, and allow the Fed to raise interest rates. Most important of all, increase the international trade that Trump tried to shut down (which, along with Covid, was the main cause of the inflation in the first place.) The plan is working. Inflation is 3%, much lower than it was. Is it solved yet? Obviously not. But it’s a work in progress. What’s the alternative? I know what Republicans want: more drilling, as if that will solve anything. More high tariffs as if that won’t make things much worse. All conservatives offer is criticism with no solutions of their own that will work.

Thanks for posting. The article makes it pretty clear that: 1. Biden was not responsible for inflation 2. Biden’s plan of reducing inflation is extremely successful. 3. But it hasn’t gone down enough so the public is still unhappy. Obviously #3 is problematic for Biden. Reasonable people have to keep pointing out the first two points and hope for the best.

Fusion. Fission won’t get it done.

He says it’s a serious felony and that Trump is clearly guilty. Prison would follow right?

Do you agree with McCarthy’s other take, which is that Trump should go to prison because of the classified documents case? https://radio.foxnews.com/2023/06/12/andy-mccarthy-the-dojs-evidence-against-trump-in-this-classified-docs-case-looks-pretty-strong/

Ooh the lemon scene. Yes please.

I think you guys should continue to call this dude a political prisoner and a martyr. It’s a moment of clarity. Keep it up!

I just want to be clear that based on this argument , it’s Biden’s mental acuity, and not his policies, that displeases you. If Biden were 30 years younger you would eagerly vote for him, right?

Well I said “might” because I didn’t know your stance. I was trying to make a larger point which is if we are going to live in a civilized society, both your tax money and mine will be spent on things that you or I do not agree with. You can’t have a personal veto, you don’t get to opt out if something displeases you.

And I don’t understand your thought process. Are you really suggesting that if we have a trade war with China, as Trump apparently wants, that prices will go down?? Do you understand that tariffs are a tax on the consumer? The only way to get China to lower their prices is to have more free trade with the smaller countries surrounding them. Obama tried to do it, but both Trump and the leftists killed the idea. Now Biden is trying to do it again and once again Trump is vowing to kill it. This anti-trade attitude is the main reason our prices are higher than they should be.

So the federal government, under President Trump and filled with officials appointed by President Trump (including the heads of the Justice Department and FBI) conspired with social media in order to defeat President Trump, even beyond the Hunter Biden laptop story (which was, in fact, dutifully reported by CNN, MSNBC, and the New York Times) but that story by itself, had it been reported in even more places, would have flipped the election (despite the fact that 90% or more of the voting public never care about the family members of politicians.) Just want to make sure I am understanding you correctly.

After Mel Gibson’s anti-Semitic tirade a few years back, I stopped seeing his films. But that was a personal decision. It would have bothered me if Hollywood had blacklisted him. I don’t much like blacklists.

What video and surveillance evidence are you specifically referring to? And what makes you believe Biden didn’t win Georgia?

Thank you. I take it you’re referring to the Hunter Biden laptop story, and the accusation, which you believe, that the FBI put pressure on social media not to report this story. Also, since you believe this should void the election, you are obviously making the assumption that if the public knew the truth about Hunter Biden’s laptop, it would have changed the result of the election, and Trump would have won, is that correct?

Why not just answer my questions directly? Do you believe the result of the 2020 Presidential election was fraudulent, yes or no? Do you believe the FBI engineered the Jan 6 riot to make Donald Trump look bad, yes or no? These are pretty basic questions. If they represent your true beliefs, come out with it.

So I just want to clarify in case I misunderstand: you believe that the 2020 election was fraudulent and that the January 6 riot at the Capitol was planned and led by the government who were plotting to make Trump look bad. Is that correct?

I could say the same thing about spending money on policies you might prefer like border walls, for instance:

What mental box? I’m very comfortable with my position on this (stated earlier in the thread). I have no trouble at all on this particular issue. Go check out the war in Israel thread if you want to see me in a mental box. That’s a really tough one for me. Here I got no problems.

I understand. I was being a bit facetious on point 3. Although we do disagree there.
