“They Are A Disaster”: Democrats “Disgusted” By GOP Reversal On Securing Border
As an observer of the current political climate in the United States, I can’t help but feel a sense of frustration and disappointment at the recent actions of the GOP. It seems that their priorities lie in creating dysfunction rather than working towards effective solutions for the nation. The reversal on securing the border, in particular, has left many Democrats, myself included, feeling disgusted and betrayed.
The Republicans have consistently shown a lack of commitment to addressing the immigration problem at the border. They seem content with allowing fentanyl and other illegal substances to flow into the country, putting American lives at risk.… Continue reading
As a Canadian observing the political landscape in the United States, I can’t help but express my curiosity and opinions about the recent news regarding the bill that could potentially ban Donald Trump from the Hawaii ballot. It seems like states’ rights are a hot topic of discussion, but their application appears to be selective and dependent on personal interests.
One can’t help but ponder whether banning Trump from just one state is enough. Shouldn’t there be a consideration to ban him from entering particular states altogether? Or has anyone even proposed a ban that extends beyond Earth itself? Although the latter may be farfetched, it wouldn’t be surprising given the current political climate.… Continue reading
As a Polish citizen, I find it absolutely baffling that the Republican Party in the United States, of all political factions, is the most pro-Russian. Here in Poland, we hold former President Reagan in high regard for his instrumental role in helping us gain independence in the late 1980s. It is disheartening to see Republicans align themselves with a nation that goes against the democratic ideals we hold dear.
The recent comments made by the Polish leader, expressing his disappointment and calling out the Republican senators for scuttling Ukrainian aid, are absolutely valid. The actions of these senators should be met with shame and reproach.… Continue reading
The possibility of Trump being convicted in D.C. just days before the election is a topic that has been circulating in the news lately, and I can’t help but feel a mix of frustration and anticipation. The fact that this discussion even exists is mind-boggling to me. We are talking about a man who has been impeached twice, held civilly liable for rape, and is facing 91 felony counts. Yet, he was the best candidate the Republican Party could find to represent them. It’s a stark reminder of the state of our political landscape.
I remember when people were fixated on Hillary Clinton’s emails during the 2016 election.… Continue reading
What the hell are they thinking? It’s a question that I find myself asking over and over again when it comes to the Republican Party and their actions. Time and time again, they claim to be upset about certain issues, like immigration, but when they gain power, they do absolutely nothing to address them. It’s a never-ending cycle of disappointment and frustration.
Take immigration, for example. Republicans have been up in arms about it since the 90s. They’ve made it a cornerstone of their campaigns, promising to crack down on illegal immigration and secure the border. Yet, whenever they have the opportunity to do something about it, they choose not to.… Continue reading
Donald Trump does not have presidential immunity, US court rules. This ruling comes as no surprise to me. As an American citizen, it is deeply unsettling to see extremists on the right pushing to treat Trump and his family like royalty. This goes against the very foundation of our country and its laws. The founding fathers explicitly designed our government to prevent the rise of a king or queen, which is why presidential immunity should never be a thing.
Some argue that granting immunity to a president is necessary for their proper functioning. But let’s dissect this argument for a moment.… Continue reading
House Republicans Suddenly Miss Kevin McCarthy After All That Losing
As a concerned observer of American politics, it is both amusing and disheartening to witness the buyer’s remorse that some House Republicans are experiencing with Speaker Mike Johnson. After all the chaos and losses they have endured, it seems they are finally missing the leadership of Kevin McCarthy. But, should we really be surprised?
Kevin McCarthy had always been positioning himself to become Speaker of the House. He had years of experience in Congress and knew how to navigate the political landscape. On the other hand, Mike Johnson’s lack of experience and evident lack of confidence have become apparent, making him seem like a “whack job” with his talk of Moses and religious overtones.… Continue reading
On the Border, Republicans Set a Trap, Then Fell Into It
Here we go again, witnessing the spectacle of Republicans setting traps for themselves and then clumsily falling into them. It seems like they never learn from their own mistakes. This time, their performance centered around the border issue, revealing just how unserious the GOP is when it comes to governing effectively.
The Democrats signaled their willingness to vote for a hard-right bill on the border that contained almost everything the Republicans wanted. Even President Biden indicated his willingness to sign it. But what did the Republicans do? They said no.… Continue reading
It’s disheartening to see the level of political pettiness and selfishness on display in the Republican Party. The revelation that a GOP senator doesn’t want to pass a tax bill because it could make President Biden “look good” is a testament to their party-over-country mentality. It’s infuriating to think that elected officials are more concerned with political points than with helping the American people.
The fact that the bill in question doesn’t even include checks for Americans, but rather a tax credit, makes the senator’s opposition even more nonsensical. It’s clear that their goal is not to serve the American people or improve the economy, but to ensure that Democrats don’t succeed in anything.… Continue reading
As I sit here, contemplating the current state of politics in the United States, I can’t help but agree with Joe Biden’s sentiment that this is indeed the weirdest campaign ever. The fact that we have a former president, who led a failed insurrection, even considering running again is mind-boggling. It’s like living in some alternate reality where the lines between reality and fantasy are blurred.
But what truly takes the cake is Donald Trump’s suggestion that he looks like Elvis Presley. I mean, really? The comparison is ludicrous, to say the least. Elvis was an iconic figure, a talented musician, and a cultural phenomenon.… Continue reading
