    Not voting is a choice. Voting for someone while holding your nose and then bitching about everything they do is not very productive.

    Anyone who thinks they voted for the same old tired republican bs is in for a shock. He wants to clean up the government and that means getting rid of some Republicans as well.

    I don't think anyone thinks that.

    It's possible he's getting rid of Gaetz.

    Not everybody can be a cheerleader for a populist megalomaniacal populist. You need to get over yourself. You sure don't have a problem bitching and whining when you don't like shit.

    Wow .. not the first time you've told me to get over myself. What? If I disagree with you I'm being egotistical? I truly don't think anyone on DP has a bigger ego than you Gunny so perhaps you need to take your own advice

    Some people aren't brought up that way. Don't know if it's right and not sure i agree but I've heard a lot of folks say you don't vote, don't bitch.

    Look in the mirror. You'll find someone I couldn't hope to compete with.

    So voting for someone you despise is only so you can bitch?

    Not being able to compete with your ego has nothing to do with being able to destroy your arguments. Now you want to keep going? I assure you that you haven't been around long enough to see just how nasty I can be if you want to sling personal insults.

    That is true. Let's rewind: After Trump's behavior following the 2020 election, there was no way I could envision voting for him again. It is most fortunate for him current Admin is such an abysmal failure that people are afraid to leave it up to them for 4 more years. ESPECIALLY when they broke out Kamala who is dumber than Biden.

    I, as well as plenty of others, may have voted for him to get rid of the Dems, but that doesn't erase past behavior. It doesn't erase the bad policies he had, regardless the good ones. In 2020, his loyal few couldn't carry an election against Biden. So it took the rest of us.

    That in no way means we have to agree with his breaking out doubling down on stupid. These appointments have nothing to do with best qualified and everything to do with amassing power by appointing loyal yes men, qualified or not. We're almost in a war and he isn't going to stop it. Matter of fact, he could be the cause with his hard line stances on China and Iran. That's not the time to be appointing less or unqualified people.

    I've been around you since the beginning Gunny. Way before DP. I know exactly how vile you can get so you don't scare me.
