This debate is the 2023 rendition of Trump's American Carnage inaugural address.

They all seem desperate to attack some other country , mostly Iran . DeSantis (the human bobblehead) is well, belligerent, and Ramaswamy is nuts.

In the meantime, Roseanne Barr, a human cuckoo clock, is a headliner at the Trump rally.

Outrageous, that could our closest partner for peace in the ME.

This debate is essentially an hour and a half of war mongering. War must be in the news right now.

If you would like to defend this debate, go right ahead.

Nah, Eisenhower along with the Brits screwed that up in 1953 over some domino b.s.

1953 is a long time ago in 2023, except in the ME mindset.

Vivek attacking Ukraine, including the Nazi smear, and then defending Russia's occupation. Before you all accuse him of being a Russian puppet, just remember that stupidity and pandering to right-wing talk radio is also a good explanation.

Are you asking instead of a media that makes money of off Trump?

Professor Principal

2.1.3 Hallux replied to Drinker of the Wry @2.1.2 2 years ago

Basically, judging from this debate, should the GOP win in 2024, we will be at war with China, Iran, the Arab world, Mexico, immigrants, and, maybe, but probably not, Russia. They think threatening the world is the path to peace and prosperity. Pro tip: It's not.

As long as we don't threaten Grand Fenwick, you know what happened the last time we threatened them.

The one of these 5 GOP candidates who sounds closest to sane, in the normal sense of the term, is Christie. And, yes, I realize what kind of comparison that is.

It's funny....

You see certain liberals get all hysterical about Trump and think... well.. Trump is unusual and really abrasive.

But then you see them react to other Republicans and realize... nah.. some of these folks are just hysterical about everything.

Professor Principal

8.1 author JohnRussell replied to Jack_TX @8 2 years ago

Its nice , for them, that as a good conservative you think these people are viable candidates. Someone has to.

I think they're better candidates than Trump or Biden.

But I think that about some homeless people I've met.

Oops. Trump just confused the Chinese dictator with the North Korean one. #DementiaDon

Biden writes all of Trump's stuff ... /s ... as is evident by the oft posted phrase: "Trump is right again!"
