    The US justice system is a mess. This is just another example.

    Therein lies much of the problems with Presidents using 'executive orders' to circumnavigate the legal process. Add to this Biden is ignoring the decisions of SCOTUS and giving away taxpayer money by forgiving student loans. Now that's a dictatorship.

    We do have a Constitution and executive orders have been around for a long time. And if Biden is not reelected the next President may rescind all of his EO's just as Biden did with the Trump EO's.

    Trump doesn't set the budget. Why are you even asking this question?

    Tell that to Trump. And you can tell that to DeSantis too, who has also threatened to cut funding unless people comply with his agenda.

    In the past Congress appropriated certain funds to the military, and Trump grabbed the money and spent it elsewhere, so why wouldn't he do the same with education funds?

    Why? I don't normally argue with retards. I doubt Trump should be an exception to that rule.

    Wow you mean like politicos always do, they just say random **** they have no ability to deliver on and you clutch your pearls over that?

    Is that where you wanna be when Jesus comes back friend?

    Oh, he did it all it all right. He grabbed money allocated for the military and used it for his pet projects. You have not paid attention.

    Oh dear......

    Trying to make it about me is .....eeehh...what should I say..... weak.

    You mean he grabbed money allocated to the military and used it for military projects like the military building a border fence in defense of the nation. You have not paid attention.

    You're all affeared that he somehow controls the budget. Its hilarious.

    Its a euphemism dude. It means "don't you have other things to be worried about that might actually be important"?
    You worried about the budget? Look at the house.

    Covid was a mess from the get go and a test we failed for the next biological encounter with China.
    Regular vaccinations are good, necessary, and should be required with a few exceptions.
    Those living among us who skipped the immunization program are only reasonably safe because of our herd immunity.

    You and your family be getting your shots.
    Funny. You will give your teenage birth control pills/shots/implants, but not HPV and hepatitis, lol.

    He wasn't talking about those vaccinations. This is like saying his bloodbath comment meant actual killing. When will the left be honest about things? Ever?

    The justice system of the state of New York is out to "Get Trump". Trump is being denied due process.

    Trump's further undermining of our vaccine safety regulations with 'Operation Warp Speed' is IMO his biggest failing, the starkest black mark on his record. Its a bit less so that he isn't willing to coerce people into taking the vaccines that he helped make less safe.

    Would it surprise you to find out that the CDC has been repeatedly admonished by the Inspector General for failing to meet conflict of interest standards in its acceptance of 'research' donations from pharmaceutical manufacturers? Would it surprise you to find out that the majority of its 'safety research' is funded by these donations from the manufacturers of the products it 'researches'? Would it surprise you to find out that the CDC has never corrected these failings?

    We are one of two nations on the planet that allow pharma to advertize on TV. We also have the most intensive childhood vaccine schedule of any nation on earth, including vaccines that other nations have banned due to their frequency of adverse reactions. We're also the only nation on earth that protects vaccine manufacturers from the monetary damages of their products.

    There is literally no reason at all to assume that the vaccines the schools mandate for children are safe. They are 100% profit driven.

    Trump relied on the integrity of the pharmaceutical manufacturers and the medical experts in the CDC as well as Fauci and Birx. They did not do their jobs.

    And I think Trump relying on the integrity of pharmaceutical corporations and experts at our infiltrated CDC means Trump did not do his job.

    He's still better than Biden, of course.

    Trump is not a medical expert. Fauci, Birx, and the CDC are. It was their responsibility to ensure that the vaccines were safe and effective.

    He doesnt need to be a medical expert to understand that our regulatory institutions are captured by corporate corruption and therefore not to be trusted. RFK understands it well. I would prefer RFK to Trump. But RFK lost his base for trying to expose the corrupt corporate influence within our regulatory institutions, and lost the support of his party for vocalizing it, so I'll likely be voting for Trump. Hopefully Trump's figured out the game now. But in his first term, he clearly didn't understand how horrible and awful our federal institutions are. To trust them at all was the pinnacle of childish naivete.

    I don't think that anyone quite knew how bad it was. The testing done with the vaccines did not specifically target those most at risk to Covid which are the elderly especially those with one or more of the CDC listed preconditions. Certainly the CDC understood this. Arguably Trump and his advisors should have known this but nobody spoke up.

    Why? Your side clings to the notion that there was no meaningful voter fraud in 2020? You should be comforted by that not concerned.

    It was the courts that found no meaningful voter fraud. But that doesn't stop my concerns about State reps refusing to certify results.

    Before 2020, local election officials seldom voted against certifying results. But in 2022, conservative officials in North Carolina, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania and New Mexico refused to do so. Some admitted to refusing to certify for political reasons. In all the 2022 cases, the election results eventually were certified, sometimes under a court order.

    The courts found nothing because there were no investigations. They refused to hear the cases because of lack of standing. Trump brought two suits. He won one and lost the other. All the other suits were not brought by Trump but by supporters with no standing in the case. The one place where there should never be anything political is in elections. That seems to be falling apart. It concerns me too.

    There was a lot of evidence and dubious conduct of election officials during the 2020 election process but no proof primarily because forensic audits were not done. Recounting possibly fraudulent ballots doesn’t prove anything. For the 2024 election Trump should insist on forensic audits being done in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, Milwaukee, Phoenix, and Las Vegas. If no irregularities are found then the results should be accepted. If irregularities are discovered further forensic audits should be performed.

    Half of the voting electorate don’t believe in the integrity of the election process. Voter photo ID, more stringent checks on mail in ballots, paper ballots, and same day voting would improve the process and public confidence in the process.

    Trump wasn't a dictator when he was in office so why would this time be any different? He will have an energy friendly policy and a secure border as an agenda. Both great for the country.

    You, along with the lapdog liberal media are intentional
    You, along with the lapdog media and their liberal apparatchiks, are intentionally taking Trump's "bloodbat" comment TOTALLY out of context!!! He was referring to the auto industry if China is allowed to import cheap EVs from their EV plants they are currently building in Mexico. If elected he promised to put a 100% tariff on them. Braindead biden and the loony leftist lapdog LYING media will try to turn anything Trump says against him, even if that means spinning the truth!!!

    Remember, the same clowns who criticized Putin for letting Navalny die in prison would love to see President Trump rotting and dying in prison.
