Hardcore troubadour 15,517 Posted February 28, 2022 Some Biden voter smeared feces on a woman’s face in the subway in NYC. Unprovoked, had it in a bag, didn’t know her. Did someone get punched somewhere? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember that Barack was famously unqualified; we just couldn't discuss it because we would instantly be labeled raciss. He was a one-term senator whose claim to fame was the most "present" votes in the senate. And prior to that... what exactly? Some amorphous "community organizing"? It was almost as if he was being groomed and intentionally kept out of anything that could be remotely controversial, until his time arrived. The Dems played that one beautifully; I can respect a winning strategy when I see it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That took chutzpah! I love the bankruptcies angle, it shows an ignorance of how the business world works. VCs prefer to invest in founders who have a few failed companies under their belt; there is no shame in that, and it shows that you have at least been exposed to (and hopefully learned from) the myriad things which can cause a company to fail. Obama, Biden, Bernie... wouldn't know how to run an enterprise with a gun to their head. They have only the experience of political power, which works until it doesn't, and they have no adversity or real-world experience in their careers to fall back on. It truly amazes me that folks like you on the left can't understand the allure of Trump. People in the midwest were pleading to bring back jobs. The response from the political elite: no problem, I'll propose the HUIDOSAFHQZ plan to send you money! The response from Trump: jobs, I hear ya, jobs, let's try to get these jobs back. You can argue his success, but the resonance of the message should be clear. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you allow tax cuts for corporations, they can hire more or pay their employees more. You increase their taxes and they lay people off and/or increase the costs to the customers. Cutting back on some regulations allows companies to produce more, rely more on our products here, than the non-regulated lead-filled BS we get from China. Of course these are just strawman arguments, and very simplistic. But you get the jist of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Say what you want about his politics; far righters will call him a RINO and I'm not arguing that. But he is absolutely a deeply moral person who would take a bullet for you. Perhaps I'm more attuned to the Mormon culture because they are so prevalent here (second only to Utah) and I've counted several as good friends. Romney made all the money he needed from Bain, then decided to go into public service, as governor, as POTUS candidate, and now as senator.

Then again, the MSM was intent on finding something to bring him down and protect the legacy of Saint Barack. He had a folder of women, the horror!!!

His approval ratings have been poor. He will probably get primaried and run out of office in 2024. However, he will be 76 in 2024 and probably will decline to run.

He was my governor for several years You actually touched on why he lost the POTUS election in your first paragraph. He is too nice of guy for how POTUS elections are done now. Romney never really fought back. He got slandered by Harry Reid that he didn't pay any taxes. He never defended his "48% of people rely on govt" comment and got trashed for it. He got trashed for his "binders full of women" comment even though his admin in MA had more female staff members than any other MA governor in history. Etc. Etc. Etc. That's why he lost. I don't remember thinking "wow, Romney the POTUS candidate is a lot further right than I remember him as governor". He is a reason why Trump arrived and won in the following election. The dems had slandered and smeared both Romney and McCain in the previous two elections and it cost both of them those elections. Neither one of them really fought back and by the time 2016 came around - many right leaning people, like myself, were sick of seeing "nice" people get trashed and lose. When someone calls you a "racist" without just cause - you SHOULD BE ANGRY. When someone calls you a "misogynist" without just cause, you should want to punch that person in the face. Enough with being nice and turning the other cheek. And then Trump showed up. . . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted March 1, 2022 let's set rusty off! Donald Trump is running away with the most favorable national political figure and its just getting stronger. Overall he is 46% approve to 47% disapprove. A whopping 28% see Trump as very favorable. There is a stunning 10 point gap between him and second place, and most are in the single digits on that question. https://mcusercontent.com/ca678077bc522bd7bd74bacbf/files/a7e91458-499d-d0b4-70c5-192fa4bba67f/HHP_Feb_2022_Final_Deck_002_.pdf rusty can go cry in the closet now.
