    LOL if you think I've been somehow on Team Nancy or Schumer recently - serious question are you even paying attention?

    If anybody is carrying the mantle of accomodation to the fascists it has been Schumer, Fetterman and the rest with their attempts to pivot to Trump and the results have been disastrous, as they literally bought MAGA/DOGE stock at its highest point prior to Trump's approval going to the toilet (also apart from being just MORALLY AND ETHICALLY WRONG - Trumpisim is bad politics and bad policy).

    Honestly I'm worried about you - have you had a stroke recently? Experiencing depression? Are you taking your meds? You seem to be sputtering and just making random things up.

    Don't be disingenuous.

    Whatever man - @Nook can like John Fetterman all he wants, I don't care, but lecture me about how I'm some kind of Chuck Schumer apologist (his time is done - this is not his fight, he is not a good opposition leader) - and then take the position that John Fetterman, who has probably the most pro-Trump democrat in the Senate - is where the path to winning lies is just silly (as is @Invisible Fan talking about how "they chased out Manichin" - still waiting on this whopper)

    (also a bunch of nonsense about Biden & Bill Clinton? Yes i was not posting about BIll Clinton in 1998 also this site didn't exist?)

    The feral nature of the leftist mob has them thinking the more left they go, the more likely they get revenge on trump.

    However, AOC the Marxist can't pass policies and she's very surface level so can't give nuanced answers, only circles back to eat the rich and corporations. Tiktokers aren't taken seriously in the real world outside of other tiktokers. Plus you only have to point to socialist countries and their decay to scare average Americans. The aggressive rhetoric turns off a lot of people who would prefer competence after the trump admin. Center people will go for Emmanuel and Fetterman in a marathon , particularly after the push for domestic manufacturing helps swing states.

    As far as being President, you need to look lean. If you are overweight you can be senator but get laughed off the stage by everyone when running for the highest office. Chris Christie wasn't the worst candidate policy wise, but he was constantly shamed for his weight by male and female journalists, male and female voters, who didn't take him seriously. Regan Bush I Clinton Bush 2 Obama all lean ... and trump was lean up until old age. He wears expensive suits that slim him down enough to look imposing.

    I was intrigued, so with the help of AI, I listed the presidents by their BMI. If someone wants to make it look like a readable table, go ahead. I bolded the presidents who served in my lifetime. I think all presidents probably have an incentive to over-report their height and under-report their weight. I'm a little surprised, actually, that Trump didn't fudge just a little bit more to get under the Obese range.

    Weight Height BMI Category
    William Howard Taft 332 72 42.3 Severely Obese
    Grover Cleveland 275 71 34.6 Obese
    William McKinley 233 70 31.1 Obese
    Theodore Roosevelt 237 71 30.2 Obese
    Zachary Taylor 230 68 30.2 Obese
    Donald Trump 245 75 30.0 Obese
    Chester A. Arthur 238 72 28.7 Overweight
    Bill Clinton 234 74 28.3 Overweight
    Herbert Hoover 220 72 27.7 Overweight
    John Quincy Adams 203 70 27.2 Overweight
    Benjamin Harrison 168 66 27.1 Overweight
    James Buchanan 217 72 26.9 Overweight
    Lyndon B. Johnson 200 76 26.5 Overweight
    George H.W. Bush 196 74 25.9 Overweight
    Dwight D. Eisenhower 180 70 25.8 Overweight
    Franklin D. Roosevelt 188 73 25.8 Overweight
    Gerald Ford 190 72 25.7 Overweight
    George W. Bush 191 71 25.3 Overweight
    Andrew Johnson 175 70 25.1 Overweight
    James Garfield 185 72 25.1 Overweight
    Joe Biden 178 72 24.9 Normal
    Ronald Reagan 185 73 24.8 Normal

    James Monroe 180 73 24.7 Normal
    Harry S. Truman 180 69 24.5 Normal

    I don't think anyone would think W and Pappy were overweight.

    Those BMI ranges are really unforgiving for 21st century Americans!

    I recommend you attend a seminar hosted by our resident trollolologist Trader_Jorge if you really want to shine on this board.

    GOOD DAY

    Fetterman Sides With Trump Over Fellow Democrats On Iran

    “I really hope the president finally does bomb and destroy the Iranians,” the Pennsylvania senator said.

    June 17, 2025/4:32 p.m. ET

    Embattled Senator John Fetterman continues to express his bloodlust on behalf of Israel.

    Fetterman told Fox News that he would oppose Senator Tim Kaine’s Resolution to Prevent War with Iran, which states that, “It is not in our national security interest to get into a war with Iran unless that war is absolutely necessary to defend the United States.”

    Fetterman responded sharply, “I’m going to vote it down.... I really hope the president finally does bomb and destroy the Iranians,” he said.

    Fetterman is the biggest piece of **** the Democrats could have elected. He looks like someone smashed a human face onto a Mr. Potato head and a threw on a dirty hoody to make him relatable to the working trash of Pennsylvania. But he is a rich boy who stroked out and now just exists to spew hate.

    I have really liked Fetterman, right up until trump took office and something has changed, hell, I didn't even mind him meeting with trump, you have to TRY and work together. I don't know if this is who he really is, or something changed in him, but this version of Fetterman is not someone I can get behind

    He’s likely positioning himself as the centrist pick for whichever party implodes first. If his speech gets back to normal, he'd be dangerous.
