Trump banned bump stocks and is fond of red flag gun laws. Trump cut the first set of stimmies which helped start the leaps in inflation. Then Biden finished us off. Same one-two punch of the Bush/Obama Era. Bush did the first bailout then Obama followed. Dog and pony show. Opposite sides of the same corrupt coin.

When did any of the swamp get fired under Trump? He didn't get rid of Barr and many others.

What about Trump's endorsements? They have been terrible. In Ohio, he backed several swamp rats.

Trump is just a slower ride on the same path to destruction but the destination is the same place. But because of TDS, we lost our chance to get a better candidate like DeSantis. DeSantis didn't just talk about medical freedom. He made sure to give Floridians that freedom. Unlike a certain someone who still has not been held accountable. Even if it wasn't malicious, it was poor decision making that killed millions of people and jobs, created more addictions, more suicides. I mean come on. What does he have to do for people to realize he is NOT the man for the job? How many more have to suffer under Trump giving lip service then stabbing us in the back?

He only cares about himself and his big ego. I'm embarrassed I fell for it twice.

And Trump could have pardoned Assange, but chose a crappy rapper instead.

Spot on Robert Smith! As far as "Warp Speed" trump is concerned his total incompetence in handling the Covid Plague is a DISQUALIFIER.

You need to read Sashas post on Astra Zeneka and the DOD, they kept Trump out of the loop for a year beforehand. Pompeo knew what was going on and lied to the President!

Boatswain Mate's avatar

Sorry, but The Captain is ultimately responsible for The Ship! That's a very long time for him to have been bamboozled and then what did he do? A DISQUALIFIER for holding that office again. And the explanation for "Warp Speed"? Ben sums it up: I never knew a man who was good at making excuses who was good at anything else.

Dealing with apologists for what he did is difficult. I don't get why they can't see it.

I agree that Trump was ill-served by those around him. But if I, a normie schlub, can go on the internet and in half an hour find out that mRNA vaccines have a terrible backstory, why couldn't he?

Teri ORourke's avatar

My parents, age 85 swear up and down it prevented them from getting covid. Every new vaccine will be an mRNA version. I chose not to and followed Trumps advice to follow the Zelensky protocol which is what Trump did. Trump did not mandate all troops and govt contractors to get the jab. My county had a 85% injection rate, why did 15% choose not too? I know people who have taken 8 shots and they would take 8 more no matter who was President. If Trump knew this was intended genocide, I will be the first to eat crow.

Hi Teri. Believe it or not, I think Trump did a lot of good. However, he should have done better on the vaxxes. There was nothing stopping him from doing similar things to RdS. And he should have sacked Fauci and Birx. There can be no excuses for these failings. He was the leader. And if Trump was saved by the Zelensky protocol he has even less excuse: he should have had the guts to have recommended that to the American people.

Trump did recommend Ivermectin and Hydroxy and the fda banned them from being used! I got mine in Mexico over the counter. My pharmacist would not fill my prescription in Colorado. The fda has been weaponized as well as the AMA.

I’ll vote for him if I absolutely have to, but he brought Scott Atlas and Bobby Kennedy both in to advise him and shortly sent both away. The buck stopped with him, he failed US, and he needs to address it. Not that I expect an answer at all, let alone a satisfactory one from him. He’s a garden variety narcissist- a quality I know well, personally and professionally.

Steghorn21's avatar

He's also completely tin-eared. Listen to his comments about Anhauser Busch not being woke and that we should forgive and forget. He just doesn't get it that this is not about the quality or otherwise of a piss-like beer, but about an issue that most of his supporters care deeply about: the sexualisation of our society by perverts.

We The People's avatar

Trump, Biden, Obama, it doesn't matter. The "President" does not run the country. The CIA military industrial complex is firmly in charge ever since they shot Kennedy.

Steghorn21's avatar

I agree about Trump. Anyone thinking that he will bring America back on course is horribly naive. However I think you, Justin, might be a bit naive in saying that "I have never been a strong believer in political conspiracies. I attribute most of these issues to incompetence rather than malice or conniving." You don't have to be Alex Jones to see that the incompetence is mixed up with a great deal of deliberate malice from people like Obama and the philanthropaths.

Trump was played as was everyone else regarding Covid. The DoD funded fauci and Collins to secretly develop bioweapons with the Chinese and gaslit the world when they let it loose. The next time won’t be accidental! Trump is the only remote chance at dismantling parts of this system of corruption.

Janet's avatar

All I can say there is no one I can vote for. I’m completely marooned politically and drifting further and further away. Politics devoid of the truth of our real situation. It’s like the mainstream churches now, oblivious to the actual evil going around with sermons plucked from the drawers of file cabinets. People sitting in pews unmoved. Unaware of what is starting to creep around us and take hold.

Janet's avatar

I would vote for him. Not sure he could “burn the place down” though. If so we’d better have his back and be part of it. A force behind him and all around him, metaphorically speaking. Whatever it takes.

Chiadrum's avatar

I love how people write him off for one issue. He said he is against the WEF and I believe the Paris accord. So yeah, instead just elect another lizard creature yet again as we spiral down to a hellscape. Good call.

He has a plan to bring the alphabet agencies to heel and he doesn’t need congress. Just releasing actual data and telling people the actual truth will spark a revolution. Which he will do. I know I’m just dreaming. He will be murdered in broad daylight before he would ever be allowed to take office. I’m not saying he is a savior. But he is a thousand times better than any other option.

Amy's avatar

The WEF endorsed Trump. He is one of them. It is far more than one mistake. And that "one" mistake you speak of killed a lot of people.

Chiadrum's avatar

The one issue is RFK and climate. I fully agree that Drumpf mass murdering thousands if not millions is a no go for me. Too bad so many of his demented minions could care less.

Teri ORourke's avatar

He is a net zero guy. Non starter.

The terms of your "dilemma" are hardly gospel, let alone agreed upon. And since you so fear Newsom enough to change imply you'd change the terms? Just start by changing them. Now. It's unfortunate but it's Trump or it's all over. Now or never. Biden will never last another term, and Kamala is too hated to be left in place. We'll get Newsom either way if we can't elect Trump and bring in a great VP that can spearhead the recovery going forward. Like it or not, the Republic hangs on Trump's election.

Amy's avatar

Sad you are placing all your hope on one man to save us. Recipe for disaster.

David Morgan's avatar

Well, no other political recipes in the book we've tried are effective. And, newsflash: this is already a disaster. I trust one man to save us and He will. In the meantime we work with what we have, and that includes broken political systems and deeply flawed, fallen men.

Amy's avatar

I just gave a few examples of a much longer list. Totally agree there are plenty more....

We have no other possible winners at this time besides Trump. DeSantis is out and Nikki is a RINO. Trump has his faults, but the Dems and RINOs worked hard to make his life miserable and to undermine the good things he tried to do. Don't forget the constant negative propaganda around Trump. Perhaps it did not influence those of us who read, research, and study, but it certainly affected a lot of non-thinkers. How would his presidency have been different if the media praised his efforts? How would positive press have affected GOP outcomes overall?

Burnt taco's avatar

It would be easier to get behind Trump if he were to bring desantis and Vivek on board as cabinet members or vp asap.

Robin Evancoe's avatar

Agreed. Plus, I am concerned about a similar end to Trump like Kennedy. We would need a solid replacement.

Jim keech's avatar

I feel that .Mr Hart would welcome such an outcome! I doubt he would approve of Vivek as next-in-line

Antonio's avatar

Can anybody clarify what I consider a glaring omission in almost all reporting regarding Trump's and Biden's PRA indiscretions?

They both were/are accused of felonies for having possession of classified documents. Can anybody tell me where that behavior is criminalized? I see nothing in the relevant statute that criminalizes that action.

Under what laws can they be prosecuted for having possession of classified information, especially since the law they are accused of violating (PRA) has no criminal penalties or provisions attached to it?

Boatswain Mate's avatar

It appears to me this is what we're up against: A man is his own easiest dupe, for what he wishes to be true he generally believes to be true.

The one thing I prize, most of all is competence and and important positions. This is what God is in trouble in 2020. And why Trump failed dramatically. The stories I relayed are just the tip of the iceberg. When I get to the January 6 stuff, your mind will be blown. This is someone who does not appreciate the constitution. He has not looking out for the best interest of our country and frankly, he is a dangerous narcissist.

Steghorn21's avatar

True, but so is almost everyone on the Left. So who do you vote for? The least dangerous narcissist or sit this one out?

Amy's avatar

What you don't understand is TDS goes BOTH ways. Until Trump explains why he STILL has not backed off the clot shot, he has completely lost me.

Do you really think the deep state only has people in the Democratic party? Don't you think they had a plan to play us too? Trump once said he could get Republicans to vote for him because we are stupid. Maybe he still truly feels that way and this is one big dog and pony show.

Open your mind to the fact he may not be on our side. Pfizer paid for his inauguration and he is invested in then. If you can't question your own candidate, you are simply a blind follower. And to jump on Justin because you are close minded on any questions about Trump speaks more to you than Mr. Hart.

LovinTexas's avatar

TDS for sure. Also can one really believe these stories?

Michael Schurr's avatar

You are 100% on the Money Matt. No Trump = No Country. The vast majority of so called Republicans are weak and without love of country. Politics is a nasty game and if you aren't ready to get muddy you best stay out of the swamp.

Glenda's avatar

Not so sure. I he for the country? Or is he for DJT? MTGA? Claims in rallies and speeches mean nothing to me, nor in the long run once a candidate is in office. I may end up voting for him in order to vote against the Left, but I won't blind myself to his self absorbed narcissism. And that quality never ends well for anyone but the narcissist.

Teri ORourke's avatar

What does Trump get out of all this bullshit he has put up with? Believe me its not for the money or power…

Glenda's avatar

What does he get?: Winning. (Bigly).
