US Ambassador to Ukraine quits

I certainly don't follow all the goings on in a pious manner, or what you could even call an amateur amount of dedication, but one of the great hopes I had when he stood for a second term was the inevitable meltdown from the lefties if he was elected.
It's hilarious.

What's wrong with lefties? You won't upset me, whatever reason you give, because I'm dead centre.

EDIT: No pressure to answer, btw! I am always interested in peoples' views, but don't want to be intrusive.

The RWR usually have a shallow pile of idiots to vote for. Scraping the barrel is the nature of the (populist) beast. They then revert to 'it enrages the lefties though' when their beloved idols inevitably fail. It's all the poor bastards have left.

Shmucks.

I'll admit from the off that I haven't read all of that article properly, just skim reading over the waffling parts.
The activists contributions to it really stand out though with their constant use of hyperbole.
What is interesting, perhaps more so than any response, is the question itself.

"Is this the usual clash between the courts and the executive branch? Or are we heading into uncharted waters?".

The usual clash between the courts and the executive branch?
That lends to the fact that what, Trump is doing is quite customary.

Trump knows how these things work.
He knows how long legal challenges take and he knows they buy him time, which is what he's aiming for.
Some like to portray Trump as being a dictator, in charge of everything with ultimate authority (when it suits) but we all know that isn't the case and never will be.

You are trying rather desperately to make it seem Trump is doing no different to previous presidents.

But the reality is Trump is pushing as hard as can to put the executive branch above the judiciary and simultaneously take control of the media…..he is trying to make himself King, unanswerable to anybody…..that’s not democracy it’s oligarchy

Who was it that won the U.S elections again? Wasn't that Kamala was it?

He said he'd end them - fail.


His tarrifs are already having an effect. Regardless he said he'd bring prices down. He hasn't - fail.

Farmers, hoteliers etc are fuming.

Yes, they are dancing in the streets because their pets are safe now.

He is the only world leader to try to stop them and as of yet he hasn't managed it but don't see anyone else trying. Which farmer is fuming? Great to see all the pets are safe, that's a good start isn't it?

decent people are upset by a morally corrupt person becoming leader of the free world.
And you find it hilarious.

That says a lot about your character.

By the way, it’s not lefties that are having a meltdown, it’s millions of Republicans, increasingly it’s Trump supporters.


There is a reason why Trump loves the poorly educated: it is because they are easily duped.

A tiktok farmer paid by the Chinese for click bait.

So just the migrants left that is down to him. I am sure people are grateful for that

Not correct

Trump has made endless claims of deporting hardened criminals and has made loads of publicity showing raids and deportations.

But migrant criminals were deported under Obama and Biden.

The vast majority of people being deported under this administration are just undocumented migrants….and whilst not in USA legally are mostly people working hard in the USA economy and paying tax.

I have never posted anything from tik tok on here.

Was that in response to me?

I don't think I did falsify it. Not intentionally, anyway. But apols if I did. Maybe the quote software went wrong.

Haven't got a clue.
I quoted your post but omitted the last word from your sentence.
It was there for a while and now gone.
I thought it was funny anyway .
