George Carlin said it best many years ago: “They call it the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it.”

The entire premise of this war with Iran is ridiculous. And who is trump to say that Iran should never be allowed to have an atomic bomb? Countries all over the world have atomic bombs. North Koreans Kim Jong nut-ball, the man that trump said he “fell in love with” has about 60 nuclear weapons. Can you imagine what people would say if Joe Biden had said that he "fell in love"with the dictator from north korea? He would be eviscerated. But for trump this is normal speaking behavior. And let's not forget that five years ago, trump led a violent insurrection at our nation's capital.He told his supporters to go there and "fight like hell, or they wouldn't have a country any more". His supporters attacked the Capitol, attacked the police protecting the capitol, got into the capitol and carried confederate flags, And were shouting things like "Hang Mike Pence", because the vice president wouldn't agree to trump's demand that he decertified the true election results. Trump watched all the violence on tv and DID NOTHING. to intervene. Many police officers that help defend the capitol later committed suicide, because they were so traumatized by this ugly and horrible event. Trump is full of s**t, and is a crazy, demented, mean-spirited old man. And he's getting worse by the day. His next birthday he will be 80, and his declining cognitive health will be more and more obvious to everyone that listens to him. He gets his words mixed up and often he can't even pronounce things, let alone utter sentences that make sense. And it serves the American people right, in some ways, because they voted for this idiot maniac, Trump! TWICE! Trump said he would put an end to foreign wars and lower the cost of living for Americans. Instead, he he bombs, Iran. Even though they posed no imminent threat. and as a result of the war that trump started, the American consumer is paying much more money for gasoline, for housing, for transportation, for health care,and many other things. Trump is a clear and present danger to the United States and to the entire world. Quite frankly, I am ashamed to be an American citizen. It will take many years to undo the damage that Mitch McConnell and donald trump have done to the United States reputation, and its place in the world. This corrupt and idiotic Trump administration cannot end soon enough! Sincerely, David Morris who was born long ago in Fort Wayne Indiana.

Trump didn't "lead a violent insurrection" against our nation.

I was there.

I have video I took of the DC Metro Police opening up the bicycle barricades and gesturing for people to come inside, right up to the steps of the Capitol Building.

Most people who voted for Trump now regret it ... the dude sold out to Israel. But if you're still pushing the old J-6 narrative, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe you should go reread the article?

Insurrection, huh? Do people usually plan insurrections and then leave all their guns at home? Insurrection, huh? Is that why the gov has admitted that there were literally hundreds of undercover agents & police in the crowd? Why? Does the insurrectionist playbook usually prioritize disorganization, petty vandalism, no weapons, no leadership and no demands? What kind of "insurrection" is that supposed to be?

You're throwing out insults, while repeating the thoughtless nonsense given to you by a corporate media narrative.

Zionists come in all flavors and the Christian ones are most dangerous. They say its not about land but right to exist. Its about routes resources and ideology. Why is the pedo Zionists the only ones to recognize somaliland? Look at a map. They undermine everything even non Zionist jews. Ukraine stop bombing Russian refineries who give ukes targeting info…. Biden blew up nordstream. They are going to make diesel a covid op. They want starvation they want mass migration open borders. They want this country what it stands for and could be gone. This war has been going on for centuries. They cannot have a sovereign free decentralized America, which we can build. Unipart free Fed free bankster free crony capitalism free. If the ballot harvesting muslim communists get power, Your replacements are here. It amazes me that 50% of gen pop goes along with self destruction.

„Our government has lied us into war after war, killing millions of people in the process.“

Absolutely right !

Too few people paid attention to it. Sadly.

Are these people lazy, gullible or stupid?

The dream is a lie. The USA has become a 3rd world terrorist nation.

Keep them distracted while they do their dirty work. Venezuelan oil money that disappeared, ICE murders, Flock Camera Surveillance, AI facilities popping up everywhere, unbridled support financially & militarily for Israel, Trashing our military etc, etc, etc., and most of all suppressing the Epstein Files, the most damning of all against "Fearless Leader" (sarcasm)!

Our church as a whole has decided that this is primarily a spiritual problem, not a political problem, and has been urging members to form better relations with each other and our neighbors, get politically active on a local level on quality-of-life issues, learn about the doctrine of the "lesser magistrates" and whenever possible being that "lesser magistrate" who shields people from the full force of a malignant government; to start learning practical skills such as gardening, canning, and fixing things that break; and becoming more self-reliant in general for hard times to come.

It's becoming quite obvious that <<<they>>> intend to kill us.

“Take heed that no one deceives you. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.

“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved."

--Matthew 24:4-13 (NKJV)

Trump knows the midterm defeat is creeping up on him, and the lunatic has been shoveling America into a ditch at full speed. Through backroom deals, grifts, and shameless self‑enrichment, he’s turned the presidency into his personal cash machine. The country bleeds while he stuffs his pockets, a greedy old parasite pretending to lead while looting everything he can grab.

It was only for a select few and even then it was a lie, a lie that kept you in debt and stole your dignity, ethics and morals!

Ever wonder why we can’t have universal healthcare, education, and a living wage for Our workforce?!? I did and my research concluded this is the reason;

Most of Our current Congress, the ones we voted in then sent to the Oval Office to represent/protect us are mostly ISRAELI!

$17.5B; THIS AN ACCURATE COUNT SHOWING THE AMOUNT OF OUR TAXES EACH STATE SENDS TO ISRAEL EVERY YEAR!!! NOW THEY WANT TO MERGE WITH US AND STEAL OUR SOVEREIGNTY!

WE THE PEOPLE SAY;  HELL NO!!!

Cut the financial aid to Israel then EXPEL ALL Israelis from Our Country! America will not be the first to kick their ungrateful, two-faced, backstabbing posteriors OUT!!!
