Trump is degenerating before our eyes, and it seems like MAGA voters either don’t notice or simply don’t care. As I watched his recent ramblings on national TV, I couldn’t help but cringe at the utter nonsense that was coming out of his mouth. It was like witnessing a horror show in slow motion. But while I, along with the rest of America, are alarmed by his deteriorating mental faculties, his hardcore base seems unfazed.
It’s unsettling to see how Trump’s once coherent and confident demeanor has now devolved into incoherent babble and nonsensical rants. Comparing his past speeches to his recent ones, it’s evident that something is not right.… Continue reading
As a resident of Colorado eagerly awaiting the Supreme Court’s ruling on former President Donald J. Trump’s eligibility to hold office, I can’t help but feel a mix of anticipation and skepticism. The fact that the justices have expedited their decision-making process ahead of Super Tuesday certainly adds a layer of urgency to the situation. However, given the current political climate and the composition of the Court, it’s hard not to feel a sense of disillusionment.
The Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling in December, deeming Mr. Trump ineligible under the 14th Amendment due to his involvement in the insurrection, raised hopes for accountability and justice.… Continue reading
As I watched the video of the Trump rally where the crowd fell silent after he confused Biden with Obama once again, it made me reflect on the current state of politics in America. The fact that Trump continuously makes these mistakes, whether intentional or not, speaks volumes about his cognitive abilities and his lack of awareness. The name Obama seems to have a special place in his mind, living rent-free and triggering a visceral reaction among his supporters. It’s clear that Trump’s obsession with Obama stems from a deeper issue, one that involves race and power dynamics that he cannot come to terms with.… Continue reading
When I first heard that the US Supreme Court had ruled that Trump was wrongly removed from the Colorado ballot, I couldn’t help but feel a sinking sense of disappointment. It seems as though the sacred principle of states’ rights has been discarded, and the power of individual states to make decisions for the well-being of their citizens has been undermined. The court rationalized this decision based on the enforcement of the 14th Amendment, but in doing so, they have essentially opened the floodgates for potential abuse of power.
In the context of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which disqualifies individuals who have engaged in insurrection from holding office, the implications are ominous.… Continue reading
While it may seem like a no-brainer for a large percentage of Republican primary voters to not support Trump, the reality is that many of them end up voting for him anyway. The idea that a significant fraction of GOP voters can’t stomach Trump, yet will still cast their ballot in his favor, is certainly perplexing. It begs the question of what drives these voters to compromise their values and principles in support of a candidate they claim to find repugnant.
The notion that Republican voters have been indoctrinated from a young age to believe that any Republican is better than any Democrat speaks volumes about the tribalism and polarization within the party.… Continue reading
Nikki Haley says she’s no longer bound by the RNC pledge to endorse Trump if he wins. A pledge that was one-sided from the start, as Trump himself never signed it. It’s clear that Haley is in a tough spot, trying to navigate the treacherous waters of GOP politics while still maintaining a semblance of integrity. She may claim that she’s not bound by the pledge, but the fact remains that she will endorse Trump anyway.
It’s disheartening to see politicians like Haley prioritize party loyalty over principles and values. The idea that she would pardon Trump if elected is just the icing on the cake.… Continue reading
The recent Supreme Court ruling regarding Trump’s eligibility to be on the Colorado ballot for the 2024 Presidential primary has sparked quite a bit of debate and discussion. The 9-0 ruling, with all nine justices in agreement, emphasizes that it is not up to the states to decide the eligibility of federal candidates, highlighting the importance of federal issues being handled by Congress rather than individual states.
There are various viewpoints on this ruling, with some expressing relief that this decision prevents states from potentially abusing their power to remove candidates they dislike from the ballot. Imagine the chaos that could ensue if swing states were allowed to kick off candidates based on partisan grounds—it would undermine the very essence of a fair and democratic election process.… Continue reading
As I read about Trump’s school vaccine plan potentially leading to a “public health catastrophe,” I can’t help but feel a sense of overwhelming dread. The thought of innocent children being put at risk of preventable diseases all for the sake of political gain is truly dystopian. The idea that federal funds could be stripped from public schools for requiring vaccines that have been proven to save lives is not just absurd, but it’s downright dangerous.
It’s mind-boggling to think that decisions regarding public health are being made by individuals with zero medical training. How can we trust someone who has a track record of mishandling public health crises, as we’ve seen with the botched response to COVID-19, to make informed decisions about vaccines?… Continue reading
As I reflect on the current political climate and the upcoming presidential election, it becomes increasingly apparent that the question of whether Trump will concede if he loses is not a matter of speculation but rather a foregone conclusion. Looking back at history, it is abundantly clear that Trump has never been one to gracefully accept defeat. He thrives on chaos and will stop at nothing to secure a victory, even if it means disregarding the principles of democracy and the peaceful transition of power.
The notion of Trump conceding is almost laughable at this point. His track record of contesting election results, spreading baseless claims of voter fraud, and inciting his supporters to reject the legitimacy of the electoral process speaks volumes about his character.… Continue reading
Trump’s recent blunder at a Virginia rally, where he confused Obama for Biden, is not only embarrassing but also a glaring reminder of his mental decline. The fact that the current president cannot even remember who his opponent is speaks volumes about his cognitive state. It is concerning that someone in a position of power, with access to nuclear codes, is displaying such alarming signs of confusion and forgetfulness.
The comparison between Biden and Obama is almost comical, considering how different the two individuals are. Biden may be old, but he appears to be mentally alert and coherent. On the other hand, Trump’s repeated mix-ups and verbal gaffes point to a deeper issue of cognitive decline.… Continue reading
