    @raining threes needs way more than Trump acting guilty AF. Way, way more.

    Don't even go there with that BS. Nothing he is doing right now makes that true.

    If I only cared about myself I wouldn't be wanting for our country to have affordable or free healthcare like most modern countries. Even though I can afford it, I sympathize for those who don't.

    If you have a damn about people's long term health you sure as hell wouldn't vote for fossil fuels regs to get cut, to allow billionaire chemical companies and oil companies to pollute more air and water so you can have cheaper gasoline. We already rank #1 National for harmful chemicals in our water. We don't need more toxins spewed into our air and water.

    If I didn't care about anyone's future than my own I'd much rather spend tax dollars to address global warming and do our part for the future. Don't try to give me some BS theory based on some 1% of scientists that fossil fuels aren't the reason the earth and water are warming, heat records are being broken more and more, storms aren't intensifying more rapidly or frequently and climate disasters aren't have nothing to do with the effects of fossil fuels.

    By the way, do you support pardoning the groomer, recruiter of young teens, and pedophile pimping for grown men who have a lust for underage girls? You know, Maxwell. Do you support giving her special treatment and minimum security prison? Would you support pardoning Diddy too?

    Look no further than Trump himself for the ultimate definition of selfish.

    He will, and always will put himself and his family's interests first, and into every equation when it comes to policy making. What will help our businesses? Who will bribe me with the most money? Who will have my back no matter how illegal anything I do is?

    Everything Trump does seems smart to you, above board, and totally ethical. You really don't pay attention to the bigger picture. Nope, you focus in on that pathological lying grifter spewing falsities left and right, while tooting his horn and pretending everything is so much better now, and everything is going to make us great.

    Care to explain how it's worse for the USA?

    All of the pundits both here and in the EU have said we got the better end of this deal. It's ok for us to win deals.

    A. Classic case of TDS. There's nothing wrong with playing a round of golf and negotiating a favorable EU deal in the same trip.

    What I said is true and there's a reason that people say from Canada come here to get their healthcare. I will admit Obamacare really screwed up the insurance market. Doubling the middle class insurance rates for worse care. Speaking of liars, remember this Obama oldie but goody, if you want to keep your doctor you can keep your doctor. Let's face facts, I think you mean well but the federal government screws up most everything they do at the cost of the middle class, blue collar worker.

    I can tell you what would have to happen for me to consider Trump guilty, flight to Epstein Island. Evidence of Epstein delivering young girls to Mar Lago, Trump Tower.

    What would have to happen for you to think Trump knew Epstein but wasn't involved with the BS? Also are you good with throwing the Clinton's, Podesta, Gates etc... in jail?

    Nobody lies at the pace of Trump. It's not even close. He spews them out every time he speaks for 5 minutes.

    As for healthcare one thing is true. Not only is it not affordable by millions, it's going to get even more expensive. Sure we have great healthcare for those who can afford it, but any type of healthcare is better than no healthcare for the millions who don't have it. That's one thing most modern world countries ensure their people have.

    A classic case of the typical MAGA response TDS.

    Once against you avoided answering my question about Maxwell. So tell me, do you support moving her to a minimum security prison? Do you support giving her a pardon or clemency after the vile stuff she and Epstein did? Do you support giving pedos a pass if Trump does?

    The guy you responded too said Canadians come to America for Healthcare LMAO. USA has the highest rate of medical bankruptcies in the world. 80%+ of Canadians approve of their healthcare. The idea that Canadians are envy of American Healthcare is the funniest thing anyone has ever said

    Genuinely speaking MAGA are some of the dumbest people in the world

    We had healthcare for the bottom 10 % before Obamacare. They just had to go to the emergency rooms and there was a wait time. Thanks McCain, Specter. Now everybody has to wait and pay more.

    Great

    I am sure that you will find a reason that the below article is "unconvincing".


    Trump once hosted party for ‘young women’ where Epstein was the only guest, says report

    Donald Trump once hosted a party with “young women” where the disgraced late pedophile Jeffrey Epstein "was the only other guest,” according to a report.

    The president is under pressure to release all files relating to the Epstein case, which he has so far refused to do despite a 2024 election promise.

    The anecdote was part of a New York Times piece on Saturday entitled “Inside the Long Friendship Between Trump and Epstein.”

    It states that “For nearly 15 years, the two men socialized together in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Fla., before a falling out that preceded Mr. Epstein’s first arrest.”

    The piece goes on to describe Trump hosting “a party at Mar-a-Lago for young women in a so-called calendar girl competition, Mr. Epstein was the only other guest.”

    It states that the party was organized by Florida businessman George Houraney.

    “Mr. Houraney recalled being surprised that Mr. Epstein was the only other person on the guest list,” it states.

    “I said, ‘Donald, this is supposed to be a party with V.I.P.s,” Mr. Houraney told the newspaper about the party in 2019. “You’re telling me it’s you and Epstein?’”

    They are always free to speak honestly. That they choose not to is more than damning.

    Wow bottom 10%. How wonderful. Other modern world countries laugh at that.


    Still avoiding answering the Maxwell and Diddy questions I see.
