No regrets. Nothing’s negatively impacted MY life so far. Strongly believe Harris/Walz would’ve run us into the ground by now. I can’t imagine the entire country looking like California, New York or this shithole Chicago.

My question for you then is, if it does impact your life negatively you would regret it and think Trump is an idiot?
If so why don't you already think that by listening to him talk for 1 minute or most of what he's done so far?

If so, then yes. Regarding his speech, listening to him is quite pleasant compared to Biden or Harris. Trump’s actually entertaining. Every single politician blows smoke up our asses. One of the best things he’s said so far was that Israel and Iran didn’t know what the **** they were doing. Why’s that any worse than Harris changing her accent at every rally? Or Biden being so confused he called Zelensky Putin? Also, what bad has he actually done? Deportation? Biden and Obama did the same. Bombings “Without Authority”? Again, Biden and Obama did the same. I truly don’t get the hate.. just because he sends mean Tweets? I’m more upset with Democrats than obsessed with Republicans, and I think that’s why Trump was re-elected. Look at Chicago. We keep electing these losers who put Chicagoans last. CPS (Chicago Public Schools) is now like ~$750M in the hole but our Mayor spent over $1B on Migrants. Literally reopened closed Schools on the South Side to house them. **** on an entire demographic to give to people from another country. Doesn’t make sense.. Lastly, Trump isn’t my Politician of choice. Just voted for him because I thought he was the better choice.

Pleasant to listen to? Really??? Guy talks like a child. Goes on wild tangents about nothing when asked questions. Seems just as crazy as biden. Claimed Putin fought in WW2? Firing a bunch of people for no good reason. Selling cars at the White House. I don't know if it's just the news I'm seeing but the whole ICE thing seems very dictatorship like. The list is large. Not to mention the Epstein stuff. It's like watching a bad movie where the guy is clearly covering stuff up.

But at least he changed the name of the gulf.

Exactly why it’s pleasing to me. The unfiltered nonsense, to me, is more enjoyable than the indirect speeches given by others.

Statistics show pretty much every outlet besides Fox News, which I don’t watch, only mention the “negatives”. The man could cure Cancer and the media would find a way to spin it.

The Epstein List is a joke. Pretty sure it’s filled with names from both sides. Some real weirdos out there.

The I.C.E. situation is out of hand. Deportations are necessary but he’s going about it the wrong way.

The problem is there’s no Center. We’ve got two extremist parties in America right now. I like a lot of stuff the Left proposes but it’s just not realistic.
 
Also, I appreciate this thread. I truly enjoy discussing these things with people who don’t necessarily agree with my views.

Unfiltered nonsense is just that though. It's nonsense. Literally talks for ever about stuff non related to anything. Why go on about windmills/turbines in Scotland? Whats the purpose. It's like he doesn't know how to actually speak, and just rambles on like the old fart he is.
Stop electing old farts. Guy is not much younger than biden. I'm also well aware biden was awful too.

110% Agree with you on the age issue.

I’m a fan of both Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy. Both young but didn’t make the cut.

I’m also a big fan of Tulsi Gabbard but I don’t think America is ready for a Woman President.

Would’ve voted for any of them over Trump/Harris.

Politics in America suck. We need some sort of blind test that presents both parties views where you pick which is more important to you. Then at the end it presents a candidate. Too many people vote based on Party, Sex or Race. I’ve got a 91yo Grandmother who votes Blue just because “I always vote for the Democrats..”.

That's refreshing and unexpected from your previous comments.

I'm still concerned that you think trump is fit to be president.

I try to be non bias because I understand most of my news feed is probably democratic based from what I watch but Trump just seems out of it. Someone needs to take his social media accounts away from him. Better yet resign.

Canadas no better. I have hope for Carney, but all these tariffs and trade deal negotiations just seem dumb. Just make a ******* deal and end it. None of it is helping the US.

Went grocery shopping today. 4 chicken breasts was $24 cnd. Almost double the usual.

Also have to ask. You ok with trump using your money to open his golf course, along with the fact that he's made millions while being president. Just seems like this is a gig to make him richer.

I don't think your views are that bad .some maybe, but I feel like trump is just an out in the open dictator, and it takes a lot for me to say that considering that Trudeau did during COVID and I didn't see it that way at all.

$17.42 USD :eek:

Damn! I paid a $10.57 USD ($14.57 CAD) yesterday for 4 chicken breasts and they were a decent size. Wife used them to make teriyaki chicken in the crock pot for her work week lunches (and had extra for me 1 or 2 days lol)

Edit: I guess it depends on the weight of your 4 breasts.
 
What’s the deal with these few Canadian Provinces trying to join the States? Unsure of the legitimacy but seeing it more and more over the last six months.

It's just Alberta. It'll never happen. Wish small group of people that want that would just move to the US.
