He's the President
The buck stops at his desk
You hate the dems so much, you give Trump a pass on everything
He needs to lead
Something happens in another part of the world such as Russia attacks Ukraine and you blame Biden
Something happens here such as a shutdown and you blame the dems
Face it. You hate the Dems so much that you blame them for everything
Dem derangement syndrome


LOL. LOL. LOL.

‘He needs to lead’. Puhleaseeee! There is no leading the Democrat intransigents. He has lead his caucus about as well as you could expect. YOU may not like where he lead them to! And stop being obtuse. There is NOTHING he can do that will draw praise from the Democrats who don’t give a crap about ANYTHING other than taking down Trump and the goals the American people elected him AND Congress to accomplish.

How come the Democrats can’t look to WHY they are in a minority on the Supreme Court. In a minority in the House. In a minority in the Senate. In a zero in the Executive branch. Despite having a substantial lead in registered Democrats over registered Republicans.

This government shutdown is an easy example. It’s on the dumb Democrats.

Elections have consequences
If you win by a razor
You have to negotiate
The lead in the house is so thin, Johnson refuses to let Adelita Grijalva of Arizona be sworn in simply because she is a Dem

Ed…. Come on! The House keeps passing the Republican bill. It’s the Senate which technically cannot consider the bill (due to the filibuster rules) that is preventing its passage. The Repubs won’t get to 60, nor will the Dems. The government shutdown has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with size of the Republican majority in the house.

Another stain for the Dims. NJ gubernatorial candidate had military record released after a ‘freedom of information’ request by Republican supporter. The result showed involvement in an academy cheating scandal. She’s not complaining about the facts of her involvement, which she explains as ‘I didn’t cheat, but I didn’t want to ‘rat out’ those that did. She’s complaining that it ‘should have taken longer for the FOI request to be processed’. It is amazing what the Dims think it’s important to the general public. Just what I want in politics, a Governor who will see wrongdoing and cover it up.
The fact she doesn’t see this as reason enough to end her candidacy says all you need to know about her.


Total non-issue. Basically the whole class was "implicated" because of how the exam was run. This is like that GA State Police class that "cheated," because of how the instructors "assisted" with the exam that had a low pass rate to boost their numbers. But, they all got punished for it...

To say that she orchestrated the thing, or is even responsible for participating is quite silly. She just did what everyone else in her section did (which is the same that you or me or anyone in her class would do...)

If this is the worst thing she ever did, I like her already.

If it was intended that the government had to stay open, they would make it into law.

Terapined is not a troll. His thoughts are as heart felt as yours are. I call out his errors. It’s not hard. Calling someone a troll because they disagree with you does not advance the conversation.

You support a President who is a convicted felon, filed for multiple business bankruptcies, cheated on all three of his wives, was found civilly liable for lying about SA and was found civilly liable for financial crimes. And you yap about this woman's minor transgressions that didn't really impact her military career? As they say in some parts of the country, that dog don't hunt.

No, he is a troll. Disagreement is fine as long as you engage in debate. When you just post the same talking points over over and over you are a troll. All he seeks to do is enrage the other side. There was a time he actually debated here, that was many years ago. Now all he can say is "TRUMP BAD, REPUBLICANS BAD!"

I think you need to learn about the honor code cadets are expected to abide themselves by. She was not only compelled to not cheat but to "rat out" those who do.
