    1. No, it's not. Please do some research prior to posting
    2. Nope. Wrong again. Where do you get your information?
    3. Again, wrong. And you don't understand the causes of gas prices, which have next to nothing to do with Biden.
    4. "Left for dead"? Trump bent over and took it up the backdoor when he "negotiated" American withdrawal from Afghanistan and excluded the Afghan government from the talks! Military experts say the withdrawal was executed as well as could be expected, and it was always going to be messy....do you think that Trump, who can barely negotiate a trip to the bathroom, could've carried that out?

    So, should they have multiple military uniforms to swap in and out or just one main profile in the lead up to 2024? Personally, too many military medals could give a gaudy look but MAGA might think different?

    Tenure and wokeness do not benefit students. This will be interesting.

    Sorry, my bad, highest in 4 decades on line to be the highest in history very soon

    US Border patrol
    The US recorded 1.7 million illegal border crossings in the past year, the most since records began
    https://www.businessinsider.com/number-of-illegal-migrants-in-the-us-soars-record-high-2021-10?op=1
    NEXT

    Then you should have no problem finding any point in history where gas was higher than the $4.82 national average
    I'll wait
    NEXT

    Funny, history doesn't recall what you do. Lets check it out

    Trump negotiated the evacuation of 30,000 troops without a single incursion from the Taliban
    Trump negotiated the evacuation of 4 military bases without a single incursion from the Taliban
    Trump negotiated 18 months of cease fire where no American soldiers were attacked or killed.
    Trump negotiated the last evacuation of Kabul by May of 2020.

    Now lets see what Brandon did

    Refused to withdraw from Kabul in May and decided to wait until Sept 11 to gander a photo op
    Was told by the Taliban if he didn't leave by the agreed upon date they would attack
    Biden ignored them so the Taliban started their advance of Afghanistan in June.
    Biden still ignored them for his 9/11 photo op

    On August 15, the Taliban took Kabul, and Biden ordered a midnight evacuation leaving thousands of American behind and billions in military hardware.
    Then Biden left for vacation for 4 days going radio silent to the entire world
    He refused calls from world leaders (who knew nothing of Bidens emergency evacuation)
    Because of this Biden was held in contempt by Parliament for ignoring our allies. First time in history.
    Being such a coward he couldn't even face other world leaders request for information

    Biden refused to allow our military to go in and get Americans out.
    So Germany, France, and Britain solders were flown to Kabul, and went in and got their citizens out of Kabul confirming again what a coward Biden is.

    Then Biden made a speech that he wasn't leaving Kabul until every American was evacuated.
    Then the Taliban said, nope, you will be out by the 30th or we will attack your troops.
    So the Biden coward did as he was commanded to by the Taliban and left ran leaving hundreds of Americans and billions in US military hardware.

    If you don't understand the basics of military and political uniform protocol, how could you possibly understand the answer?

    Didn't we all hear that when he forwarded his anti grooming bill?
    Didn't we all hear that when he forwarded his anti corporate bill banning people on forums?
    Yet 55% of Democrats support him in Florida.

    None of the lefts forecast for DeSantis has come true since he took office.
    Why would you think anyone would buy into the lefts predictions now?

    Polling is showing Charlie Crist either leading desantis or within the MOE of him. For him to be as popular as the trumpatriots say he is, it looks like he would be doing much better.

    So what military dress should Trump and DeSantis wear in 2024? Multiple choice is ok and do we agree that the medals should not be a ridiculous amount?

    Are you suggesting that you don't want to share a private vision of Despot Trump in military garb with a chest full of medals? Why not?

    Who would look better decked out, him or DeSantis Despot ver 2.0?

    Well, he knows straight from the horse's mouth after attending both Yale and Harvard and it's also obvious just about everywhere else, that the school system across the country has an extreme bias to the left that needs exposing and adjusting. Fairness is one thing, indoctrination is another.

    When all colleges do this you can't. Some people have limited options. Some people aren't stupid enough to take on 100k in debt to go to a far away college.

    They’re allowed to work while they go, there are also private colleges that are more right leaning. There is also something to be said for class selection. Liberal arts are going to be filled with liberal teachers. you don’t have to adopt the views of a professor either. Republicans seem worried their kids can’t think for themself.

    Nothing that it has anything to do with the thread, but the Democrats didn't convict Trump on impeachment counts solely because of Mitch and the GOP Senate, as Cruz told VanDerVeen and Castor, you don't have to work hard, we are not going to convict Trump

    Could go on, but why bother, anyone who still denies that Trump lied, and lied often, directly to the American public isn't going to change their view even if God Himself descended upon earth and confirmed it

    Could you perhaps elaborate on what exactly is wrong with loving the poorly educated? I’d like to better understand why that’s a problem.

    Also, would you be surprised to learn that a higher percentage of those with high school or less education identified as Democratic than Republican in 2016?

    Could you link to a NYT article listing Bidens lies? I’ve skimmed some of those articles and seen them before. Much of it is opinion. And if we used the same rules, Biden and just about every other president would have the same number of “lies”.

    Sorry. Can’t take NYT serious when they claimed he told people drink bleach, called the KKK fine people or incited violence on 1/6 and was a Russian spy. Nope sorry. They have no credibility.

    so they can $12,000 a year while taking on $160k debt.

    It's better just to remove corruption from State universities they belong to the state anyway.
    Well as it stands liberal arts isn't filled with liberal teachers it's filled with anti-liberal far left insane people.

    It's not Republicans that are worried it's normal people and they're worried that their kids won't be able to think for themselves as that's currently rewarded by our college system.

    I think the left is afraid of this for the same reason they're afraid of charter schools it might show that their way sucks and Florida State universities may become far more excellent than even ivy League.

    The left doesn't like their power to be challenged.

    More exaggerations to deflect from the question.
    I never claimed Trump never lied
    I claimed the media lied claiming he told 30,000 lies
    Then challenged anyone to prove that claim.

    So can you provide 21 lies in one day or are you here to just deflect from the actual question with more exaggerations of what I claimed?

    Ahhhh, So this has nothing to do with military decorum.
    Sounds like you have a thing for Trump in military garb.
    Do you want him to bring a whip as well.
    Maybe you can slip into your leathers for some spanky time
    Its your fantasy. Live it any way you want too.

    The poorly educated have a tendency to be unable to think on a scale that exists outside themselves. You see this with individuals not really caring about a subject unless they perceive it impacts them. While this isn’t an issue during one’s day to day life, when these people as a minority are given the ability to overrule other, especially the majority, the results can be devastating.

    In your particular instance it is because they voted for that individual against the best interests of the nation and were seen as gullible and easy to profit from.

    There is nothing inherently “wrong” with being uneducated — it is only when these individuals get to dictate the lives and laws for others does it present an issue.

    Is this the poll you are referencing?
