Hey dummy, you should probably read up on history. The Democratic Party were the ones in the hoods with burning crosses, riding horses, and hanging Black people. Do better if you want to stay relevant while bashing the greatest president to ever hold office.

Wow, you Trumpers are damn uneducated (what a surprise, with FOX Spews on day and night). Most of us have enough sense not to engage very much with racists who have no ethical values. That comment about the Democrats starting the KKK is stupid, wrong, and ignorant. But your insanity is not my problem. We Democrats and right-thinking Americans just want out of this insane asylum called the U.S.A.

Wait until masked, armed gunmen come to your town and start pointing their guns at you. You think it cannot happen? Trump wants nothing more than to tear this country apart and possibly start another civil war. That will be your problem. I am off to Costa Rica, where it is peaceful and safe. This is not America anymore. It is just a very violent country run by insane, ignorant people at all levels of society. Best of luck with that.

In my wildest dreams, I never thought Team Red would sit back and let Uncle Sam openly seize the means of production or the intellectual property of private corporations. Talk about an Uno reverse card. How are they going to square this with conservative small-government ideology?

Meanwhile, things continue to fall apart, separation-of-powers-wise, here in our consumerist democracy:

Trump tries to wrest spending power from Congress as government shutdown looms:

"The administration says it can cancel nearly $5 billion in international aid with or without approval from lawmakers under a little-tested theory called a "pocket rescission."

"The Republican chair of the Senate Appropriations Committee on Friday called the move an "attempt to undermine the law."

"The move risks complicating talks to avert a looming government shutdown deadline."

"Federal funding expires on Sept. 30, and without new spending laws, broad swaths of the government would shutter. Republicans control both chambers of Congress, but need support from Democrats in the Senate to pass new spending laws."

Guess we'll see if Speaker Johnson and our MAGA/GOP Senate can pull yet another rabbit out of a hat when it comes to our federal budget.

I also guess Mr. Trump is worried that they'll need Democratic votes in the Senate to roll over for him.

I imagine he sees that as even worse than a do-nothing Congress, which is probably why he's pressing ahead with his project to suspend the federal Constitution, along with all its pesky provisions designed to thwart despotism, as soon as possible.

You must have slept through history class in high school, if you even attended. Southern Democrats before 1965 became Southern Republicans. They were the Confederates left over from the Civil War. The Democratic Party had long and deep roots in the South. It wasn't just a political party, it was an institution that completely dominated Southern politics through kickbacks, political gangs, machine politics, and cartels.

A second Democratic Party developed in the North with an electoral base of Irish immigrants, Catholics, and working-class Americans.

Go back to school.

The question is why the Democrats haven't done anything about the Epstein files. I think you probably know why.

Maybe if the Democrats ran somebody with a brain, we wouldn't be in this mess.

Trump is brokenhearted after seeing his significant other holding hands with someone else, as if they had gone to the prom and then posted pictures of themselves making out on Truth Social. No wonder dissed Donny flipped his lid.

Your party thinks men can get pregnant and that transitioning children in elementary school, in secrecy behind their parents' backs, is acceptable. Oh, and let's not forget your DEI hire on the Supreme Court who cannot even define what a woman is. LOL. And I am the ignorant, insane racist? Um, okay!

Here's an idea: why don't you just cancel your membership on this site and move to another country, instead of crying about it and making empty threats?

Donald Trump is busy winning while fixing the downfall of the United States of America, which began in 2001 and gained real momentum under the "great black hope" (whom I voted for twice). He took it to the next level and ended up creating all of you who think "Orange Man Bad" is some kind of argument. LOL.

LOL… I used to be angry at the world too when I lived in my mommy's basement.

****ATTENTION****

If anyone reading that idiotic paragraph in the quote above by Alley Pussy Cat wants to know the true story and the actual facts about the Democratic Party, just copy and paste his, her, or their quoted lies into a Google search and let AI take care of the rest. You will almost instantly start laughing when the real facts begin to sink in, which are very different from what you are reading from rainbow person.

Image-wise, it looks like Trump has dropped a clanger. He imposes his 50% tariff on India, allegedly because they are buying Russian oil and gas. China then steps in to take up the slack and supports India with a favorable trade deal. Who wins, who loses? I suppose the market will tell.

China's big 80th end-of-WW2 celebration makes the United States look rather small, especially with the huge military parade showcasing hypersonic rockets, electronic weapons, and underwater drones. If I have read it correctly, it looks like China has "trumped" Trump's tariffs with its ban on rare earth exports—pardon the pun. North Korea supplying manpower and artillery may also tip the balance in the Russo-Ukrainian war, as both sides grind each other down.

And then there is Taiwan. In terms of growing rice, they cannot be beaten, but the real importance lies in semiconductor manufacturing. They seem to hold the number one position in the world. How long can that last? It would be in their best interest to maintain it for as long as possible, especially for security and financial reasons.

Recently, the UK, France, and Germany have been trying to cobble together a response to help Ukraine, with some success. But with Trump playing nice with Vladimir Putin, how will things play out? It is conceivable that by the time a Trump-Vance presidency has run its course, the old Soviet Union could be back and China may have taken Taiwan. If that happens, who ends up with Taiwan's technological know-how?

For my part, I hope Ukraine prevails and Taiwan keeps its independence, but the outlook is not encouraging.

China's population: 1.4 billion
India's population: slightly larger
Russia's population: 140 million
North Korea's population: about 30 million, if I recall correctly

Even economically, this is formidable. It does not seem like a smart move to push India into the other camp.
