    Russia is hacking our systems, 3000 people are dying every day from covid, millions unemployed, and Trump has nothing better to do on his way out than further divide the country. How anyone can support this is beyond me as an American.

    We don't have to like or agree with each other. We do need to work together. What Trump is doing is playing a game, and those who support it are game players, not productive citizens.

    Whats wrong with being honest and truthful about our history? It's not pretty, it never has been we really aren't the guys in the white hats. Isn't it better to be honest about that so we can make sure it never happens again? Or is it that certain segments WANT it to happen again?
    History is history, you can attempt to rewrite it, ignore it, gloss over the ugly bits but it's still there, no matter what. Seems better to be open and honest about it. I know the right has major issues with open and honest but lets give it a try, see what happens.

    The Constitution also establishes democracy. That's what is taught.

    A constitutional republic is democratic by definition. Any argument to the contrary is false, and I only see it used by far rightwingers whose votes just lost. Coping mechanism, I'm guessing. The far left wants everybody to vote, so their coping mechanisms don't include this.

    So, it's not part of history; it's part of history long ago. That's a head scratcher there Jeff.

    I'm not in favor of expanding government powers either, but if we don't push back against bullsh*t like the "1619 Project" then the America-hating leftwing extremists, the white guilt virtue signalers, and the domestic terrorist thugs in the BLM will continue to rewrite history until all of the facts are twisted beyond recognition and our noble country's true history is lost forever.

    ok, they still died so that the slaves could be free and our country was salvaged. I am not against teaching history, including the dirty side of it. But the idea that the US is inherently bad and founded by people who are defined as 'slave owners' and not anything else, is the exact thing you are against, misinterpreting history to promote an ideology.

    Where have I ever said the the US is "inherently bad"?

    As with all countries, the US has had some bad episodes and done some great deeds ... it is what it is. Trying to white-wash the bad doesn't
    help anyone, or make some of today's problems with roots in those times go away.

    Covid has a 99% survival rate. They are lumping the common flu and covid together to combine the deaths. Some of those deaths falsified.

    Russia and China have been hacking us for decades. We do it to them. Old news.

    Stop fear mongering.

    I agree with everything but the white washing. I don't feel we are doing that.

    That is funny Trump not a conservative is supppoedly picking conservatives. Too bad so many have decided to die already such as Milton Friedman, William F. Buckley, Barry Goldwater, Charles Krauhammer, Peggy Noonan, Rober Taft Everet Dickson, Paul Harvey, William Safire,...

    I cannot think of any Conservative currently alive who are worth a Schiest.

    How true your words are. The POS has schiested on our Constitution and his believers think that he is somehow a conservative. How blind, deaf, and dumb they must be.

    It is also contrary to defending our Constitution.

    There has been absolutely NOTHING EXCEPTIONAL about anything related to or accomplished by our country during Dirty Donalds reign of terror. He has completely destroyed the American image around the world making us the object of ridicule pity and scorn.

    Many years ago a virus was discovered in our power plants to shut them down in the event of a war. China put it there. You can look it up online. I found out when the news talked about it on tv. This was over 10 years ago. China was always said to have the world's best hackers.

    It is public knowledge Russia, China and America hack each other.

    To say Russian and China has not been hacking us for decades is a lie. Also it has always been a priority for our country to stop hacking. No need to fear monger. This happens more than you know.

    As for covid those are not lies. If you look the common flu almost does not exist anymore. In San Diego County, California they average over 17,000 cases in a year and have far less then 3,000 cases this year.

    A infant was accidentally suffocated by its caretaker in Massachusetts. The Governor Ted Lamont put down covid 19 as the death. When it became public he lied he said on live TV he did not know how the infant died admitting he lied.

    This is 1 of many cases we can prove where covid 19 deaths were falsified.

    Stop calling me a liar and get out of your liberal bubble RickJay. You obviously do not know anything.

    I don't support qannon nor do I see them as a threat. I just ignore them. They are not in schools teaching our kids to grow up as liberals.

    And the left wants to tear us apart. Is it really sanity to empty the jails and decriminalize property crimes?

    after a discussion here I opined that the left is making the major cities it controls unlivable to drive liberal residents into Red States. It at least explains the insanity of Seattle, Portland, SF, et.al. That would explain the otherwise insane policies of Progressive mayors and city counsels.

    What is wrong is that it will tear the country apart. It is already doing so.
