    I agree with this too. They were forced off land by violence and are now living in large concentration camps with tall concrete walls holding them in. They are facing oppression on a level none of us can imagine. Some of them are terrorist thugs. Some of them are just people trying to live. There is no right side or wrong side in my book just humans stuck in a vise.

    Yes. This is the reasonable perspective but it unfortunately doesn't solve the problem. I dont know what can be done but terrorism isn't the answer so I don't have any sympathy for Hamas. I'm just not a fan of Israel either. That said China is a much bigger threat so to me Middle East politics takes a back seat.

    Interesting analogy made with our own Native American squeeze.

    Chuck Todd lost what little credibility he had the day he interviewed John Podesta about the leaked Clinton emails and didn't ask a single question about the content of the emails. That told me that his hackery knows no bounds and that listening to him is a total waste of time, and I haven't watched him since. He adds nothing productive to the political discourse - utterly superfluous.

    At this point, Chuck Todd doesn't just kiss the *** of any leftist that appears on his propaganda show, he parts the cheeks and sucks so much **** from their *** they don't need a colonscopy for the next 5 years.

    I would like to play the paranoid leftist to AC’s Q stuff. Suppose that Jeff bezos purchasing MGM has a back plan. MGM owns The Apprentice. If you purchase that property you then own all of the out takes of the show. Sounds like a dodgy dossier to me.

    i think my link may be more acceptable than some of the Q links.
    Will Jeff Bezos release 'Apprentice' footage after Amazon acquisition of MGM?

    He'd hurt Trump more simply by killing the franchise. No reruns, no syndication, no royalties... just nothing. Pocketbook and ego busting the former POTUS is the way Bezos should pursue vindication.

    Yep, and if “scientists” have disputed, stupid people take that to mean all scientists. The agenda ridden media ignores scientists who don’t dispute what doesn’t fit their narrative.

    The biggest scandal of 2020 is how the media showed no interest in investigating the origins of COVID19. It strongly suggests influence of the Chinese government directly on the US media.

    I listened to the Dispatch Podcast. (Cue the Trump lovers calling me a cuck.) They interviewed a Washington Post reporter named Josh Rogin, who didn't go along with the ******** and wrote a book about it. It's a pretty good interview. Link.

    I don't know that it's direct Chinese influence, but it's definitely interest in hiding CIA and public health failures for not figuring it out and covering their own asses. It's "scientists" wanting to protect their grants and funding. And of course, it's idiots blindly trying to deny Trump a possible political victory.

    Does anyone here actually claim to love Trump or, rather, to love the results of his policies? I don't know him, personally, but I feel the country was better off with him vs dementia boy and kameltoe.

    Hard for any semi intelligent person to claim his policies were not good for America including as facts show minority populations.

    The only GOP folks (in office) I still respect are those that stood up to him or those (in private life) who disavow him. Otherwise, you might as well wear a MAGA hat around so you can own your dishonor.

    That's fine and dandy, but I was talking about the fact that there seems to be some misinformation about some Horn Fans posters being "Trump lovers".

    Which of Trump's policies do you dislike?

    Coach, you had a chance to vote for one of those Republicans 8.5 years ago. Did you? Or did you laugh at him for accidentally saying "binders full of women" and because he took Russia seriously?

    Dude, I've always liked Romney. I don't agree with him. I voted for W. and I think he's the last GOP president I may ever vote for.

    I liked Coburn. I disagreed with him heartily but I respected him and his instincts. I never voted for him.

    3 things.
    1. We were still in a war-like setting and I supported all of the silly crap that W. did while getting us into a poop show in the middle east.
    2. The Dem candidate was stronger. Kerry made me feel squishy - in the bad way.
    3. Romney felt like he was trying to be a man of the people before getting elected and selling out the people to the billionaires. The next guy did that exact thing and made the base think that what benefits them benefits the billionaires and corporations. That's like what I thought of Romney with an added on mixture of DBol and mezcal.

    And the only Democrats I respect are the ones that called for Biden to drop out of the race when Tara Reade's accusations were made public.
