    Becoming a Trumpling is tantamount to getting a lobotomy.

    Der fuehrer is never wrong. The American right has always been friends
    with Putin and Russia and regards all former allies and friends as our
    mortal enemy who our leader will bluster and crap about, filling his
    diaper with shit while he demonstrates his cognitve decline with
    incoherent ramblings based on lies, conspiracy theories and Kremlin
    propaganda. All rightists in the USA now agree that Ukraine was the
    agressor in the war and viciously attacked innocent Putin's Russia, same
    as the new Trump idea that Poland viciously attacked Nazi Germany to kick
    off WW2 (who we were duped to fight for the wrong team).

    Putin is very pleased with Trump's performance and promises his reward on Trump's next debriefing visit to Moscow.

    It's touching how Hegseth has remained in Moscow to pleasure Putin until
    Trump arrives to take over for him.

    Republicans STILL like Reagan.

    He was the Trump before Trump.

    However Trump IS more of a "Get It Done" kind
    of POTUS. He sure didn't waste any time ...

    Reagan speeches WERE a lot easier to listen
    too however :-)

    Reagan was a classic, traditional Republican much like JFK was
    a traditional Democrat.
    Both are probably spinning in their graves if they are seeing what a
    mess the parties currently are.

    Reagan's biggest mistake IMHO was relying on trickle down economics as
    the sole cure for the economy.


    And crawling in bed with the evangelists.


    "Mark my word, if and when these preachers get
    control of the Republican party, and they're
    sure trying to do so, it's going to bea terrible
    damn problem. Frankly, these people frighten me.
    Politics and governing demand compromise. But
    these Christians believe they are acting in the
    name of God, so they can't and won't compromise.
    I know,I've tried to deal with them."
    Barry Goldwater, November 1994
