As president, Jimmy Carter is often berated for the Iran crisis of that era. But Jimmy Carter managed to keep the Strait of Hormuz open; trump can't even do that despite (or perhaps because of) the raving lunacy of his...

Mark-Paul Well, you make it sound like he thinks he's in some kind of reality TV show in a demented way and that he doesn't care about the consequences of his actions because he believes all the bad stuff will be edited out and at the end of the show, Putin will hug him...

When the world isn't being told the war with Iran was won 60-days ago when Iran's navy, air force, army, and military might was decimated and obliterated, it is being told the war needs to rage on to stop their nuclear...

Mark-Paul Between his war with Iran and his war with Jimmy Kimmel, the only things that are clear is that trump IS a fool and that he has dementia. Get ready for him to boast how he "aced" the cognitive test for dementia for a 4th time (taken at the request of his...

There was a time, not that long ago, that if you posted anything which wasn't Trump positive, you'd be attacked by the MAGAts. During the past months they have disappeared. The tariffs which pushed up American's costs, the Iraq...

Mark-Paul He still thinks he eliminated the nuclear threat from North Korea and that he is still in a love affair with Kim Jung Un. Oh... young love is so naïve.

Mark-Paul The court ruled the Office of the President does not have the Constitutional power to issue tariffs and so declared it illegal and null and void. It was only announced this evening and is effective immediately.

Mark-Paul @NJChicaa I know I should be over it by now, but I am still astounded by the Red Hats who continue to defend, rationalize, and worship trump's nonsense. It is as though they are contractually obligated to do so. I was and still am (to a degree) a Biden...

Mark-Paul That's why I have trouble believing the hype that he really is intelligent, what someone said is "this century's Einstein." Einstein was genuinely smart. This guy is a dope... and awkward at it.

Mark-Paul Well he does have 13 children from multiple women out of wedlock. So, at least he has the full backing and support of those who claim to be Christian because they wear their claim on their sleeves as they shout for "family values."
