    Hi folks, Looks like DeSantis is not as popular as he thought: He was forced to step back from the microphone Jacksonville shooting: DeSantis booed at vigil for victims of racist attack - BBC News IMO a well-deserved response. Now, we need some crowds to turn on Trump; how about a 'crowd' of 12? Jerry Baumchen

    Hi 18, The hell he can't. And, being corrupt is an opinion, not a statement of fact. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Joe, If you thought the last episode of MASH had a lot of viewers, you ain't seen nothing yet. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Nigel, That aircraft has a terrible record of killing people; not combatants. Since the USMC does not have anything to replace it, they keep using it. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Phil, Ramaswamy is trying to out-Trump Trump. I doubt that it will work. He is probably looking for the V-P nod. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Ken, During that long ago Bible Study, I asked the pastor if the people who lived in jungles & could never hear about the Christian god would go to Hell because they had never accepted Jesus as their savior. He said that they would. Further reinforcement of my decision. In other words, horse-puckey at its finest. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, Looks like some of the GOP have other thoughts: "within the grassroots I would say people are really looking at other candidates". Georgia Republicans begin to look beyond Donald Trump - BBC News As I say, it is going to be interesting; especially if the Anti-Trump folks go out in the open to oppose him. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi jakee, I am no expert on religion for sure. However, this comment is directly opposite of what I was taught 60+ yrs ago: Who has led a proper and pious life according to God's standard of righteousness, which is the one you will ultimately be judged by, one without even an once of selfishness, pride, covetousness, hatred, adultery, lies, etc.? It was 1956 & I was taking a Bible Study class with my brother. My brother spent his time in class chatting up the girls, I spent my time 'discussing' religion with the pastor. I specifically remember him telling me that I could live a wild & crazy, sinful, wicked life, but, if I accepted Jesus Christ as my savior prior to my death, I would enter the Kingdom of God. THAT is when I called it quits on the stupidity of it. Different strokes for different folks. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, Looks like one of the Mar-A-Lago folks decided he should do what is best for himself: Yuscil Taveras, . . . changed his testimony last month . . . after he changed . . . to a public defender Witness in Trump docs case changed testimony after switching lawyers, special counsel says (nbcnews.com) I fully expect to see more of this as these cases advance forward.

    Hi Wendy, Like you, I only have my thoughts. One is that this first debate moved no needles; just an exercise in noise. I am hoping, that like Rich, the Silent Majority of the GOP will realize that he is a loser on their ticket and keep him off of the ballots. It will be interesting to watch the primaries as we go forward. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, IMO polls at this stage of the 2024 elections have little value, I did find this article interesting: 1. Most Americans believe Trump should stand trial before the 2024 election 2. About half of the country believes Trump is guilty in the pending prosecutions 3. A conviction in DOJ’s 2020 election case would hurt Trump in the general election 4. There is considerable room for the numbers to get worse for Trump 5. Half of the country believes Trump should go to prison if convicted in DOJ’s Jan. 6 case 6. Trump and the GOP’s ‘weaponization’ defense appears to be having limited traction 7. Trump is the prevailing villain in the story of his indictments Lock Him Up? A New Poll Has Some Bad News for Trump - POLITICO At this time, I still think that Trump will, again, get the nomination by the RNC. I also think that he will, again, lose to Joe Biden.

    Hi Ken, Me thinks you ask too much. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi 2, As Andy 9o8 put it above: Um, no. But just the opposite of that is true, so you were close. Jerry Baumchen PS) Could you show us even one instance where state law trumps federal law? Not conjecture, but factual.

    Hi Mark, As have some others: The arguments by Still and Shafer underscore the tensions and cracks likely to emerge among the 19 defendants. Co-defendant in Georgia says false electors met at Trump’s ‘direction’ - POLITICO As I say; survival is a VERY strong instinct. Jerry Baumchen PS) If this keeps up, they are going to have to hand out numbers to keep all of the defectors aligned.

    Hi Joe, He has been a liar his entire life; why stop now? Jerry Baumchen PS) I wish that they would have put him on the scales & entered the results. Alas, it was not to be.

    Hi folks, I consider Trump as the 'scumbag politician' that all others are/will be measured against. Previously, I have posted on here [ and some have taken exception ] that I hope to live long enough to piss on Trump's grave. That leads to me this question: Do you think Trump will have a grave? There is no req'ment that any former POTUS have a grave. Thoughts??????????????? Jerry Baumchen PS) I have some doubts that he will have a grave. I'm thinking it would continually be despoiled by people, like me, who truly despise him.

    Hi folks, But, but, the winning: In two six-page rulings by Atlanta-based U.S. District Court Judge Steve Jones effectively ensures that Meadows and Clark will face arrest this week Federal judge rejects bids to halt Georgia prosecution of Trump aides over 2020 election - POLITICO Now, they are criminals like everyone else in jail.

    Hi Phil, Well put. It reminds me of the old saying: Be careful of what you wish for. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Bill, Just as I thought. They go after a whole bunch of them & then wait to see which one turns first. * It is usually one of them way down the food chain. As I said: Survival is a very strong instinct. Jerry Baumchen * Standard procedure when dealing with multiple crooks. PS) I have this feeling that even Mark Meadows, when faced with time in prison, will turn on Trump. Actually, why wouldn't he; Trump would flush him if given the opportunity.

    Hi Bill, No need to go back to the 1850's. The GOP that I joined in the late 60's is nowhere near the GOP of today. Things change - some people cannot seem to understand that. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi Joe, How can that be; the GOP is the family values party. Jerry Baumchen

    Hi folks, I'm liking this: A flagship Russian long-range bomber has been destroyed in a Ukrainian drone strike Ukrainian drone destroys Russian supersonic bomber - BBC News Taking it to the Russkies is just fine with me. Hey, Putin; how about them apples? Jerry Baumchen
