Quote from: Icarus on April 01, 2025, 05:49:50 AMI am thoroughly confused and filled with wonder.  I do not believe that all the right wingers are dumb bastards who are incapable of ordinary reasoning. But why???? Why do they adhere to irrational claims, refuse to anticipate an unfavorable result as a result of some of the dipshit ideas and pronouncements from their leaders. :headscratch: 

You and me both.

Amazing/appalling, ain't it? Most any rational being wouldn't follow the chump. They're exhibiting cult-like behavior, like one sees in the old religious tent revivals. imo

billy rubin

why do they actively attempt to subvert the plain meaning of the constitutional while proclaiming their adherence to it?

its only 8 pages long, and its written in elementary-school level language. it outlines government piwers, responsibilities, and limitations. yet my own government representatives contradict it in their public announcements.


Just be happy.

Same reason they cherry-pick the bible, I expect.

I think that Trump and JD Vance are delusional. Denmark will not give up Greenland and Canada will not become the 51st state. Starting trade wars is also a very bad idea.

part of the reason is the usefulness of chaos.

steve bannon recommended that th emedia be flooded with so much stuff that nothing could be effectively countered. trump has signed hundreds of executive orders, and while many of them may be instantly forgotten by him, all of them need attention from his opponents.

in the meantime he concentrates on his agenda and moves ahead.

i think trump is delusional, because i think he believes anything he has said twice. but vance is calculating. hes a yale-educated lawyer and is no dummy. he knows exactly what he is doing.

the problem with vance is that he has no opinions or values of his own. he will do and say anything at all to move his own chess pieces to a position of greater advantage.

trump will be a lame duck, for better or worse, in two years. but vance has a longer view. trump has no rivals, but his clock is ticking. and vance has nobody to fear, except elon musk.

elon musk and j d vance are the dangerous ones.


Just be happy.

It doesn't seem much of a deal, all of Canada becomes one state.
It has ten provinces, a population of six times the average US state population.

With the possible possibility of a third Trump term, which I'm assured is possible, how many US states will be wanting to join Canada?

Anyway, I blame Margaret Atwood for all of this.
The patriots make America what is should be and their females flee to Canada.
Obviously there shouldn't be a Canada, not even as an idea of a better place.

I definitely think Canada should politely ask Alaska to become it's 11th province,

if canada becomes a state it will likely become about five states, so there will be 5 new representatives and 10 senators.

i suspect those people would not align themselves with trump or conservative magas in general. that would give the democrats in america an insurmountable majority.

even one representative and two senators would screw the republicans.

i dont see how the maga morons are continuing to miss this. the only eay to counter it would be for texas to split into multiple conservative states, whic i believe it can do based on its original 1837 charter.
