So, are you saying Trump is upset that Ukraine struck back against Russia?

I think that some of you need to lighten up, and realize when someone is being facetious.

Colorado is a blue State, and Boulder is super blue. He will most likely get a slap on the wrist. Especially seeing he killed no one and the crime was against the Jews.

In a red State he could get life for attempted murder and terrorism.

This will be in the hands of the DOJ

You are correct about the situation of Colorado the super blue state, but he's in federal territory since it's been deemed a terrorist attack; also he is in the country illegally after overstaying his visa.

The "incendiary bombs"(Molotov cocktails) alone is enough to get 10 years for possession of an unregistered destructive device...... But that's the least of his worries with the current DOJ

Moving to the effects of the tariffs. I wanted to order another ice cream scoop for a vacation house. Below is the delivery date, prior to the tariffs I would have it in my hands in one day. Price has not changed since August 2024 though.

Not trying to obscure anything... The "standard" you cited for judging moral character was ridiculous, plain and simple...

I'm not explaining or excusing anything or anyone... I'm merely pointing out the reality that there isn't a human being in existence who has not said something they wish they hadn't or had a regrettable association with someone in the course of their business and personal lives, yourself included... So, with that reality, how does that square with your own moral character? Again, don't bother to answer... Rhetorical...

Your back-handed attempt to insult me by passively questioning my moral character is quite laughable... I might be offended if I had not considered the source...The hypocrisy, sanctimony, and condescending arrogance on display here on a regular basis by some never fails to disappoint...

....and your response absolutely underscores what I said.

I do not believe my standard for moral character is "ridiculous."

To repeat, Trump's own words: "I've known Jeff for fifteen years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side. No doubt about it, Jeffrey enjoys his social life."

I do not associate with pedophiles or sex traffickers. I certainly don't consider them terrific guys or fun to be with. My moral standard is significantly higher than that. The fact you are still defending him is both troubling and telling. Perhaps you need to consider raising yours?

Luckily there are plenty of other options out there and I live in BFE so your delivery times should be less.

I also reluctantly went to Wal-Mart today and saw no shortage of their Chinese crap on the shelves nor price increases.

This shit is only going to get worse in all Western countries......I know what I would do with them all.....

The FBI calls it a suspected terror attack and says the suspect used a makeshift flamethrower.

I already ordered it. I will take the one I have with me and use the new one at home. I had tried a lot of other scoops and they did not quite make it on ice cream that was almost frozen without a lot of pain. This one has a lot of heft along with ergonomics and cuts through it like butter. Here is the link:

With the ever increasing violence, disorderly conduct and unacceptable social behaviour in the streets of our nations capitals, my family and I need to get away from Europe.

Thought this type of legislation was not being allowed anymore.....

Supreme Court allows AR-15 ban in this state

The Supreme Court turned away an appeal by a group of gun-rights advocates seeking to overturn Maryland's ban on AR-15 semi-automatic rifles under the Second Amendment.

Really?? In your entire life you have never associated, socialized, or shook hands with a person who turned out to be of questionable character? Never knowingly or unknowingly? I seriously doubt that... Here's what you and the rest of the TDS'ers fail to comprehend...

Your problems with Trump are emotionally rooted which obscures your objectiveness... Based on that fact alone, there is no credible argument you can make... This is the same failed tactic the democrats and the legacy media has taken since 2015... They attack his character when they cannot deny his successes or tout the merit of their own policies.

My perspective is very simple... I hired him to do a job based on his very specific policies and agenda that are crucial to the survival of this republic... His character flaws, which I am very well aware of, do not outweigh the need for the implementation of these policies and agenda. I'm not sure that I can explain it any clearer than that...

And, BTW, you can stick your opinion on the state of my moral standards where the sun doesn't shine my friend...! I'm not about to take a lecture on morality from you or anyone else on this forum for that matter... It's pretty damned arrogant of you presume to know anything about me personally based on a few posts I make on a social media platform...

We are saying the same thing. This whole argument started with me saying:

We all know Trump lacks moral character, that was not why he was elected. Americans said "yes please" because he was the better of the two choices.

And people defending Trump's moral character instead of his policies.

I recently saw a video of a Belgian beach and couldn’t believe it; until the narrator said that 85% of people in Belgium under that age of 18 were foreign born…..

I have defended his us policies many times even though they don't need defended. his foreign policies ,not as much but the jury is still out . and you know nothing of his Morals , except what trash news reports, anyway You stand to judge his morals? or anyones ?. IM not going to get into mud slinging ,but seriously Tanks Ive read you now for a year. if we elected him as a sunday school teacher, { jimmy carter} then maybe we could judge him on moral defaults, of which we all have, even if we hide it.But he was elected to close the border , restore the military , bring some sanity to D.C. has he not done so? Your turn ,as soon as your ice cream scupper arrives, lol

I am in agreement with Redleg , on the vulnerability of our military that Ukraine's brilliant drone strike revealed, It should send shivers down ever Generals spine, they apparently lead the world in drone field capability. although we have applied them against the Houthis , but not in this type application. can you see any way to protect our assets without major ,major changes. Heck I remember being stationed at moody AFB, in Valdosta and lived less than a mile off the end ok the runway . not good!

It may not truly fit into US(Trump) policy Ukraine has the new aquired capability to pull of such operation. Wonder what the US will do to counteract this?. I may have missed it but there has been no applauses from the US side contrary to several european leaders have expressed their joy. I read somewhere Zelensky says the US has been “silent”.
