    Weeding out Tyrants is never easy.
    in fact, it's not as easy as an election.

    I'm predicting right now the Left will steal this Novembers election (unless decisive Federal action is taken to reduce election fraud)

    Here's what happens when the Left seizes power.....
    Do we have any doubt what comes next?

    1). Incredible infringements on the 2nd Amendment.
    2). Unprecedented Welfare programs likely including a reparations package of trillions
    3). Relaxed immigration if not open borders and fast tracking all illegals to citizenship
    4). Removal of Trumps Southern Border Wall
    5). Reparations to China (for trumps "transgressions") and increased Chinese influence.
    6). A true Police state
    7). Censorship of dissenting voices

    So you think that Trump by abusing power is going to make things better? Oh I see. Hey you guys in Ukieland if you want those beautiful missles to knock out those Russian tanks you need to make up shiest on Hunter Biden.

    I am on the other side of that argument. I live in Los Angeles and we are in a discussion about "drifting away from the Constitution." By comparison, Trump is the lesser of evils on this issue. Sad.

    I do not see anything to gain from debating which was more evil, Stalin or Hitler.

    You are 100% correct. Both are examples of why government can never be trusted with more power than you would give your worst enemy. Debating which side of the same ugly coin is better is a waste of time.

    On the subject of drifting away from the constitution, I live in the dems petri dish and while Trumps abuse of power is extreme, he is still the lesser of evils by comparison.

    LOL... I was thinking Trump 'drifting away' from the Constitution is akin to the famous Christmas tsunami being called a strong tide...

    Yeah, white is black, up is down, blue is red, high is low, sad is happy, and people are sick of right wing Orwellian tactics.

    We're on to you. So stop gaslighting.

    Trump hasn't, abusing power is using the IRS against political opponents and launching a Deep State coup attempt.

    There is no Deep State and there never has been a coup . The only thing that the IRS did was to use a bit more scrutiny of political groups. Was it right? No ! But that is notba coup and was not directed by any POTUS.

    The allegations were proven true but the Senate refused to kick the guilty man out of office.

    The not guilty was a political vote and ignored guilt.

    The Bushies will never forgive Trump for beating Jeb! like a cheap drum. Powell hasn't voted Republican in 16 years and was the headliner at the UN behind the Iraq debacle.

    Trump fact-checks Fake News CNN poll

    [​IMG]

    Democrats win all the polls and fewer than half the elections.

    Exactly. Although I would say “didn’t have the courage” rather than “refused”.

    The guy who endorsed Clinton in 2016 isn't voting for Trump in 2020?

    Is ANYONE surprised?

    I'm sure not.

    Nothing Burger.

    Wasn't Trump a white Democrat until he fooled the right wingers.

    Well that's pretty much par for the course, what was your Uncle? A private.

    Which didn't out rank GENERAL Powell.

    He read the lies that were given to him.

    When did that happen? Oh it didn't, right wing talking point.

    What makes your opinion better than his?

    First of all ... Trump and fact check? Doesn't fit at all ... the king of fake news and Fact Check in one sentence is just ridiculous ... except for his red Maga cap fans, but they would even believe Trump if he said that 1 + 1 = 11 and it is not 2 and this proven fact says it all!

    And Colin Powell was never a Bushi as you call it, because he only became part of the administration because Bush Sr. wanted it that way!

    And as for the UN and the WMD lie, he became a victim of the Warhawks in the administration and dug that lie like many other Americans did ... and some still do!
    And Powell doesn't vote Republicans anymore ... whoever blame him if he was so fooled by the Bush Administration ... who are also Republicans, by the way, which Trump's supporters are happy to keep silent about!

    No sir ... the Powell does not recommend choosing Trump is more than justified!
