It's been an exhausting two weeks, that's for sure...

...the Rooskies and Red China, and we cain't STOP any country's level of military expenditures unless we INVADE them, Hello?

I know... So many lies... So little time

So there

My only objection to the truth/veracity of this ad is the assertion that, "China's military is EXPANDING, WITHOUT AMERICA'S LEADERSHIP IN THE REGION" is complete but bullshit! Fact is that America military budget ads up to the next 7-10 countries COMBINED, including the Rooskies and Red China, and we cain't p any countries n military expenditures unless we INVADE them. A land war in As I a, anybody?

I didn't think so.

Again, welcome aboard. I somehow got exposed to Chris Weigant a coupla three years ago, and 18 months ago to this Comments section. I consider these folks here in the Peanut Gallery as another kinda family, especially during this Covid threat.

Myself I'm a Loud and Proud Libtard. Ya know, to the left of Bernie and stuff.

We have/had two resident trolls. One self-identities as "Don Howard" and he's been bagging on CW for years to plug his One Demand small doner cleansing of Big Money in American politics thang.

The other one is/was whom I call "the troll formerly known as Michale." This cat disappeared some weeks ago -- probably because he is so far into the Kool Aid that he thinks the Trump will earn 40%(!) of the black vote come November, and even he realizes that Trump is gonna get swamped this time around.

So there. I've said it.

Please tell me where you got the "Reverend Jed Tucker Holtz" part

Jed - sounds like a holy roller name
Tucker - Carlson
Holtz - Lou

So, I second that Welcome Aboard! :)

Dunno if you're a newbie here or an OG here, but either way, welcome aboard.

I'ma playing that aforementioned drinking game while watching tape of Trump's audience last night...

Only I'm taking a shot for everyone NOT wearing a mask. See y'all in September, I guess

Please tell me where you got the "

And BTW this quote is effing scary.

And also BTW I kinda crack up every time you self-identity with "Cinsornati," as I well recall the Maplethorp "Piss Christ" and stuff. The silliest thing about our sucky Religious Right voters is that they're so unconfident in their Jesus that they feel that they hafta shove THEIR vision down everybody's throats.

Shame on you for trying to pin that on me

I feel no shame for not buying into your delusion that it's CW's fault that your super-amazing, world-changing idea is a spectacular failure and your website has been hijacked. We wouldn't have to false-choose between Big Money Alien Lizards who accept $201 donations if you did a better job. We'd be on Easy Street.

How does that relate to your incompetent handling of your website? It still resolves to online gambling scams...

And what risk? You have this obsession with money = bad but never put forth a coherent argument as to why. How does legislation change with only small money donations?

How will your idea prevent the next Trump? I would think it would enable them, as Trump did quite well with under $200 donations, especially early on in the 2016 primary. Your idea makes a solid path for fringe candidates to prosper.

Can you counter these points or are you going to continue to dismiss anything that requires critical thinking on your part?

If pointing out what they are doing and offering an alternative to end it is letting them get away with it.

Online gambling scams as an alternative does not an improvement make...

watch the transports that will carry those that made this planet uninhabitable off to the new place for them to live.

So that is what the alien lizards are planning? Thanks for letting them get away with it.

we can never have a situation where things are going on as they are today

Teleprompter Trump read that like he was bored to death, but those are the words that came out of his mouth. He's running against himself. Ready made for Biden ads.

And which is it -- are things peachy-keen great again, or is America a smoldering hellscape of violence that is coming to your neighborhood real soon now? They can't both be true, right?

Exactly this! I lost count of these ignorant people contradicting each other and the lies and revisionist history. Verbal whiplash:

* Joe Biden is responsible for "mass incarceration of Black Americans" but if elected, Biden will "empty the prisons, lock you in your home and invite MS-13 to live next door."

* These poor hostages were saved from their evil captors by Trump. Pastor Brunson spent two years in Turkey but "President Erdogan was very good."

* South Carolina "removed a divisive symbol, peacefully and respectfully," (talking about the battle flag of the Confederacy) but Republicans aren't "going to tear down monuments and forget the people who built our great nation,” (talking about preserving symbols of the Confederacy).

* "I watched him take the strongest, most inclusive economy in our lifetime; the lowest unemployment in half a century, and the highest wage increase for working families in decades and close it down to save American lives" but Joe Biden will close down America and the "cost of the Biden shutdown would be measured in increased drug overdoses, depression, alcohol addiction, suicides, heart attacks, economic devastation, job loss, and much more." Duh! How gullible do you have to be?

Could I go on? You bet your butt I could; there are literally hundreds of contradictions in their lies, drivel, and spew. That's just the tip of the iceberg. Pick a lane!

Trump shutdown great, but Biden shut down will lead to Americans dying. Wake up, morons! It is wall-to-wall verbal whiplash for anyone with two brain cells to rub together and not just a gullible Trumpian rube nodding up and down despite the myriad of conflicts and utter asinine garbage they're being spoon-fed like the walking zombie dead. *facepalm*

The first sign that snoozy Trump was on the mound was his halting walk down the White House Stairs, supported by a banister on his right and Melania on his left. What was his staff thinking? A staircase is just a bumpy ramp. Very slippery! I guess there wasn't enough time to install a chair lift.

The speech that followed confirmed that Low Energy Trump had indeed shown up. He had a big bucket of Red Meats for the crowd, but he didn't throw them with any force, it was more like dropping them into waiting hands, like Chicken Nuggets from a bucket. Comfort Food.

What was up with the wall of American Flags? They looked to me like they were made of plastic...or at best, very cheap fabrics. Maybe it was just the lighting.

Truth to tell, I mostly dozed off after about ten minutes. Woke up with the fireworks and some guy belting out the Star Spangled Banner. Then I listened to some talking heads who did not seem overly impressed.

With careful editing, Trump's speech can be used in
commercials from now into November.

* The 3rd wave starts here!

(1) Joe Biden will be inaugurated,

(2) Melania will start her divorce proceedings,

(3) SDNY will frog walk Trump out of whatever hole he's hiding in -- he sure won't be at Joe's Big Day.

It's a wonderful day in the neighborhood -- woot!

goode trickle thanks for digging up the relevant statute re the blatant Hatch Act violations.

(thinking)

Yep, sometimes it feels so good to dwell on the Dark Side, a-yup!

Gurlfriend, you need to take some deep breaths and think about what you just wrote. Facts don't matter to the retards that still support Trump. They are NOT reachable, but they are in the minority!

If facts such as 180,000 preventable deaths and a 2nd Great Depression don't matter, what would you have the Democrats do?

Yet here they are tonight speaking using the seal. In direct violation of 18 U.S. Code §?713. which states:

just sayin'.

After 3 plus years is it to soon to ask when the trumps are going to bring back their manufacturing jobs?

How about those vineyard jobs that they use h-2 ag visas for?

Gods, starting to get a headache from all of the gas...

But aside from the satisfaction of ranting -- and that's got to be an important form of blowing off steam after watching all Trump, all the time, for three or four days straight -- I question the point of highlighting these things as if they will make anyone angrier at Trump, or make any potential Trump voters change their minds.

I admit I am stunned to read in the papers that a reporter has unearthed and interviewed an undecided voter. That's got to take some serious digging. But will that fence-sitter make his decision based on this Convention's claims (i.e., for Trump) or its obvious disconnect from reality, history, and logic (i.e., for Biden)? Or will it be some combination of last minute good news from the administration about a phone vaccine and a few chaotic wag-the-dog events from the real world?

As we pass through this time of testing, some people wonder “Why does God allow such evil to exist?” A simple answer is that we need to be tested by the devil to show whether we are sincere believers or not, but convincing well intentioned people to believe and defend demonstrably false ideas is the devil's greatest triumph. The real test was not the Chinese cold virus that the President defeated this spring with travel bans and robust testing.

In the name of civil liberties, cultural diversity, and political correctness, a radical leftist agenda of moral corruption and degeneration has pressed forward. God rejects the legal commitment of radical ideological secularism to any and all of the fanatically-twisted fringes of American leftist culture—evolutionists, socialists, feminists, environmentalists, anarchists, and other atheists that will destroy our way of life. The Constitution is a wonderful guideline for self-government by Christian people, but as soon as you allow non-Christians and liberals and socialists to get their hands on it, they will use it to undermine law and order in our society and that's what's been happening.

One of the most important gifts God has given us is free will. He gave us the free will to choose to love Him and not to sin against Him. Sin can be wrongful thoughts or deeds. Obviously, deeds are worse and they sometimes fall into the category of crimes like arson, looting, and graffiti. The criminal justice system cannot judge thoughts, although liberals would like to, because they really can’t know what the person was thinking. However, God is all-knowing and will take unclean thoughts into consideration when it comes time for judgment.

The Radical Left and Joe Biden, their Catholic-in-name-only baby-killing cannibal puppet, cannot be allowed to continue their assault on our great nation and economy. Jeremiah realized God’s love and mercy in the destruction of Jerusalem because the city was not completely destroyed. Survivors had been given a second chance to repent and change direction in the midst of desolation and despair. So we see that God’s judgment is good as it demonstrates that God still loves us enough to make a desperate attempt to get mankind’s attention before it is too late. Only the foolish believe that God would not bring calamity.

And what about miracles? Having observed the obvious existence of the Creator, it would be absurd for us to think that God could not perform them. Faith cannot conflict with reason or God would require the impossible. Many have faith confused with credulity which is believing something without evidence or reason.

God is love.
