I am not sure he saved womens sports. I think he inhibited mentally ill men from denying women access to roles in sports they earned and deserve, and prevented those men from stealing championships away from women. I think that is fine.

Incorrect. While all politicians lean towards hypocrisy, of late the Democrats have held the lead in that area. Hypocrisy is not the problem with Trump. The problem with Trump is his lack of political savvy. He speaks his mind without the filter a normal politician has, so we tend to get the unfiltered truth from him. Often, I hear liberals bemoaning his assertions....saying we have to take him at his word.....and then all the sudden I hear, oh he is a hypocrite and we cannot take him at his word. It would seem the perception of Trump, for those who lean left, is malleable depending on how it feeds their desire to complain about him.

Than you should avoid making such assertions. I know the Democrats and the media will recklessly do this to motivate people to oppose the Republicans, but lets not buy into their manipulations. Time and again, they have done this and later it is revealed it was all a lie. I trust Muck for now, I trust Trump for now. I like what they are doing.

I do not concur that anyone forfeits the right to complain, but I get your point. I think he likely was pointing to it for campaign value, and I get that, I do not agree with his usage, but I allow that politicians do it.

Prove he has this information......

I do no such thing. It is an odd leap to make. I am a little surprised you might try that...... I do not concur that any of the programs observed are of any value to the American people. Pull all that money back, feed it into North Carolina and LA instead. Now, that is an oversimplification. The government is not built for that level of sanity, and would not easily be able to pursue such a simple and common sense move. Moreover, Demorats fight anything their ideological opponents do, regardless of value to the people.

What you are or are not is not relevant. Those we see in congress and media moving toward vilification show us what the power within the liberal party is. I surmise they think their antics will endear them to their voters, but in reality it will only move more sane people away. I want Musk to do exactly what he is doing. Investigate, inform and then advise Trump as to what he is seeing so Trump and his team can act. I could not be happier. Well, actually I could. Right now they appear to me to be somewhat restrained, and I want more of it, and faster. But I understand the need to proceed more carefully.

Liberals cannot defend the waste....the misuse of money....they can only portray those showing everyone their misdeeds, and eradicating those misdeeds to be some sort of villain.....they have nothing else. We need to let their toddler temper tantrums roll off line tears in the rain.

The only reason there is consternation toward Musk is his movement away from the radical dogma of leftism. When he was in their court, no problem.....if tomorrow Soros were to suddenly move away, he would be villainized as well. Liberals have no policy....nothing that works....no actual outcomes to point to.....they only have one move.....turn their opponents into villains....thats it....

He blamed Biden and at that time, as now, I maintain Biden had little to nothing to do with that.....he was an empty suit, for four years others behind the scenes were making decisions. It was the generals and military leadership who botched that action......as I did then, I stand by this assertion now. Of course those military leaders were never held to account. I am less certain Trump will broker a deal on Ukraine, but I will wait and see......

I recall when Democrats blamed Trump for the absolute mess they made of that Afghanistan pull out because Trump mandated it happen. But that was then...... I have no issue with drone strikes, by all means, have at it. I am on the fence about his ability to end this Ukraine thing, I have not yet seen anything to suggest he can do much about it. I absolutely want Israel to stand up to all those POS countries in the middle east, no doubt. Most of the people who live there are OK, but many of them are garbage, and the leaders of those nations are complete POS. I think it wise to avoid the immediate reaction, well any OVERreaction to be sure. Lets allow the process to unfold. If we hear a politician says something, from either side of the isle, we should start with the premise that it is a lie until proven true.

I like the strategy. I think it makes sense and clearly it is effective. If the Democrats manage to get their act together they could potentially sell the lie that this is autocracy or some sh!t. They need an effective leader to tell them what to think and say, without a Dear Leader, they are rudderless. All cults need that strong person to compel the ideology.

No, as I have already stated time and again, Democrats crave war and conflict (mostly for the money they can derive) but Trump never started any wars, only pulled out people back and only created peace. He understands these people, they will only understand power, and the notion that all power only comes from physical threat is silly. The real threat is not going in there and fighting them, hell, they actually dont mind that.....fighting is core to their belief system. No the thing they actually fear is influence, and making sure they have it more than others.

Planning continues, and this entire notion of troops is something media keeps trying to sell, even though the admin already refuted it....but I get it....this is how to rile people up. All good. I might approach it differently than Trump, but then again, he has more experience managing real estate than anyone else in government, or this forearm, so I might be well advised to defer to him.

I disagree. If Palestinians were honest participants, then maybe. But no, if they prefer violence through terrorism, that option is off the table.....well, for now. If Palestidiots want to hunker down in that hell hole instead of accepting the Trump admins idea to temporarily relocate, fine, live with that decision....but no crying....no begging....no pretending you are sooooo put upon....when you had the chance to get out until it could be rebuilt.

Sure. I like the way he laid it out. Whether it is America, or some other composition of nations, we get a better end result. If you prefer to sustain the paradigm which has resulted in nothing but death and misery, that is fine, I want something new.

I understand. But I have spent years immersed in that region, working with government agencies. Nothing is simple. You and I will have to agree to disagree on the how here. I get that you object, and I think that is fine, would not begrudge you that. I am excited by this, I know that region and what is possible through this style of approach.

Its something of a game. You can start a negotiation in a variety of ways, depending on your opponent and the situation in general. Trump is leading with the threat here. NO ONE....in that arena wants the US to go into Gaza, hand in hand with Israel. NO ONE wants to be seen allowing that to happen. SO.....their first move is predictable, stand up and say no. All good, part of the plan and equation. Next move will be on the part of Trump and Bibi.....announce the plan, with clear actions behind it, get things to appear in motion. This forces the hand of the regional players, who will get working behind the scenes to discuss alternatives with Trump. Then Trump says "ok, fine, I am willing to back out so long as YOU all are willing to take the lead in restoring Gaza, ensuring no terrorists run the place or use it as a base". They wont want to do this of course, but will to avoid having Trump/US show them up. This is an oversimplification of what will transpire.

I think we can all get behind the ending of any discrimination. Great move.

I expect back and forth diplomatically for a while, then maybe some specific moves which suggest we are moving on the intent....and then more negotiations behind closed doors resulting in the players of the region taking the active role in handling the Palestidiots. Its simple, but it requires steady and emphatic pressure, I love this.

IMHO Trump laid down the warning, and now the players we need to own this situation have weighed in, and now its time to turn to them and tell them to step up, or we will. Negotiation, crafty.....love it.....

Perfect. This is just step 1. Now we let the negotiations unfold. Loving this.

The same feels that explained why Trump would win, and did win...but hey, ignore what is right in front of you if that helps.

I see it as brilliant, as I have already noted the intent was to compel/provoke the other players in the region and so far that has worked. We also need Jordan and Egypt to weigh in, and then we need to see negotiations to have THOSE nations take the lead. I am hoopeful.

Exactly. If I am to believe that all that money went to the stated activities, and none of it managed to make its way back to politicians by other means then I am not suspicious enough.
