Oh I absolutely believe we've given them to much...but you batching about Trump not doing right and giving Obama a pass for doing fck all says volumes about your position...

Hell what did biden do besides funding them...I don't recall him making any real attempt at brokering peace...but he's got the correct letter behind his name
..right?

Trump is capitulating to Putin. Has everything to do with the side that he's taking in this conflict. Not the side of Ukraine or our European allies. Trump is pro-Russia....lol. Imagine that. Electing a guy that's too much of a coward to stand up to Putin, despite the US having significant advantages and historical reason to oppose the Russian Federation. But maybe it has nothing to do with cowardice. Trump has proven that he can be easily bought. Even if it means selling out allies and the country. Trump has always been Trump first.

Trump is pro-Russia

That's a definitive statement...considering everyone in the media and capital hill has tried to make that case and failed...why are you holding out on the proof?

lol! And all the calls that Diaper Don was Putin's puppet are looking more and more obvious everyday. But just like Project 2025.....all we heard from the propaganda arm of the republican party was "NA-AH!". Sucks to be proven right. Maybe turn off OAN and Fonks News for a change.

That's just it though, you haven't proved anything right? Just because you are told something is something by CNN doesn't make it true. Or from Bitter Democrats who's scams are now in jeopardy.

I take being lied to personally.
Don't spit on me and tell me it's raining.

Tell the truth. Do what you say. Say what you mean. Mean what you say.
Do it once. Do it right.

Any other cliches I can throw out that Trump didn't follow the first time, and isn't following this time?

Ok Zoltar.

We are at war with Russia when Russia waged war against a non-Communist ally.
We get it: Trump says "Russia good; Zelenskyy bad", so you parrot the sentiment with gusto.

Sorry, I don't think that way. Critical thinking and due diligence are my M.O.

You mean are out the window. Get it right Rob.

Ahhhh, "**** the eggs" was NOT the phrase screamed when they were $3.75 a dozen under Biden, but they are suddenly a non-issue when they go to double that under Trump.
Funny how that works.

I just paid $3.69/gal for gas. What happened to the $2 gas we were promised if Trump got elected?

Be more selective when you shop for eggs. Why are you choosing to pay more for gas? The MN Avg. right now is $2.96. I think you are full of shit Rob.

The proof is in plain sight. Going against our allies to do Putin's dirty work. Trump....the pro-Russia president.

Ok great... tell us exactly what Trumps plan is and how he is helping Russia.

Since I don't watch cable news....this doesn't really apply. Regardless....when I hear republicans dunk on networks like CNN and MSNBC.....all I can do is laugh......considering that Fox News, OAN, Newsmax are all just as bad if not worse. lol....a lot of them never even gave up the 'Stolen Election' farce. Fox News literally argued in court that they weren't real news in order to avoid liability. Face it.....you consume your fair share of propaganda the same as anyone.

I know. Rob tries to say that exact same thing. You don't watch the news but parrot back the lefts talking points verbatim.

Didn't Trump negotiate directly with Putin and Russia....without any input from Zelensky or Ukraine. Yeah....Trump's not Putin's stooge. lol, keep dreaming.

So what is the plan then? Global domination? What?

Again....nothing like hearing someone parroting the right wing propaganda while claiming other news organizations are fake news.

It's a pot meet kettle situation.

I watch news from both political views. For a rational thinking person it isn't hard to discover when someone is talking bullshit for ratings.

Favorable terms for Russia at the expense of Ukraine. Again....the deal they came up with had Ukraine paying reparations to Russia for deaths. Doesn't get any more laughable than that. Pretty sad that the Kremlin got a puppet into the White House.

Again...if you're claiming that CNN is bullshit and Fox News, OAN, and Newsmax are not.....then you are not a "rational thinking person".....sorry to say.
