He literally was saying if she's such a warhawk, maybe we should send her to battle.
@StumpTownStu
See the problem isnt what his underlying message is alone, but lets address his cleared out underlying comment. How can Trump make a negative comment regarding this topic to anyone? He did not serve and avoided Vietnam due to some BS bone spurs and his fathers fat wallet. When you are blaringly deficient in an area it is a wise decision to not find fault with others who have done more than you, or really any others at all. Cheney has served longer in the government and has a decent ammt of foreign affairs experience more than Trump ever has so why the need to insert yourself at all? Was there anything positive about his comments, any need or purpose to them? Trump is so lacking in self worth and ego that he must insert himself into any and everything, thus the drunk uncle comparison.
When you force yourself into bad positions regularly the results will impact how others see you and there are negative consequences in attacking others, degrading others, shooting off the hip and saying whatever floats into your head. Trump is slipping mentally, his cognitive comprehension and lack of filters now even compared to four years ago is blaringly obvious. The last trip he did plenty of abusing and attacking but he had more of a filter than he does now, the guy is losing it. He is also slurring more and seems dazed and confused, hunting for what he thinks he needs to say. He seems like he is taking zippy pills to stay aware but like the days of caffeine madness in college for me it has negative consequences, he really seems off the deep end and it will continue to get worse.
The positive in his comments is that we need to stop waging pointless wars simply to bolster the military industrial complex. So now, accordingly to you, only those who fought in wars can have opinions on them? Liz Cheney spent 6 years as a representative, from Wyoming. So let's please stop acting like she's some politicy expert. Trump spent 4 years as POTUS. She's a warhawk child of one of the biggest warhawks in history. We need more politicians with the balls to say, "Gee, maybe we don't have to engage in endless, pointless wars."
As far as Trump's cognitive decline, sure, i'll give you that. He can't express himself clearly. It doesn't invalidate his point. War costs American lives and tax payer dollars, and most of them solve nothing.
And let us not forget that Cheney barely had any connection to Wyoming. Attended school for two years as a child befire buying a house there to run for office. I mean, this is the daughter of Penis Cheney. I don't throw around "swamp" rhetoric but if there was a proverbial swamp, her dad is one of the biggest muck monsters. Is this the Twilight Zone? Liberals hate Trump so much, based on personality not policy, that they defend Republican warhawkse enriching themselves on the backs and blood of young American men and women.
@StumpTownStu
Actually yes...Trump should stop himself from commenting on any and ever thing possible. If the sole purpose is to put someone down or retort someone you are upset with then the purpose is not deserving of making the comment. I dont care what the underlying purpose MIGHT be, he didnt deliver any underlying purpose so the TNC back peddling about him saying we are not needing to be in wars, well he didnt say that and he didnt need to INSULT in saying that. The more educated, mature, respectful response MIGHT be to say that Cheney has an approach to this situation which is different than the TNC and the public in general and then clarify what that is and how a different approach is better for the country. Be diplomatic, be respectful, be aware, give intelligent remarks and show a sense of class in how you respond to others and especially those you are in conflict with.
If Trump needs an army of PR doods to explain what he meant every single day due to his slipping abilities and lack of filter, that for sure is not the kind of person we need in office and especially one who has a history of insults and negativity on his BEST day.
As a country we need an age limit for this just as there is an age min there needs to be say a 75 yr age max, Trump is a bumbling reckless fool.
What recent politician, presidential candidate, speaks like that? Does Kamala? Did Biden? Why hold Trump up to some standard other candidates fall short of.
Message matters. If the message is we need to stop throwing money away on ridiculous wars, then it is a valid message.
@THEMUGG
So then you didnt listen to all his comments because your reply to me shows you obviously didnt listen at all or are totally blind and partisan to ignore or minimize a rambling stupid foolish comment.
The guy is a moron loose cannon saying obtuse ridiculous things and yet you two try and point fingers at Kamala or Biden to rationalize a totally stupid daily occurring comment from this clown.
Where did I say Harris makes laughable statements?
(Normal) People are sick of all this bullshit and are saying get the election over with.
Everybody knows what Trump said and meant about Cheney. And Trump can say it because HE DOESN'T WANT TROOPS GETTING KILLED. Again, so obvious.
"I don¡¯t blame [former Vice President Dick Cheney] for sticking with his daughter, but his daughter is a very dumb individual. Very dumb, she¡¯s a radical war hawk. Let's put her with a rifle standing there with nine barrels shooting at her, OK? Let's see how she feels about it. You know, when the guns are trained on her face," Trump said. "You know, they're all war hawks when they're sitting in Washington in the nice buildings saying ¡®Oh gee well, let¡¯s send 10,000 troops right into the mouth of the enemy."
Dems; TRUMP WANTS TO PUT CHENEY IN FRONT OF A FIRING SQUAD!!!! 
Harris wanders around every day for hours making laughable stupid comments, DAILY?
Of course she does. This is nothing new. This is not something she just started doing during this campaign season either.
There are many compilations of her doing it online from years past, as well as this year.
She simply is not a good speaker and can only read a prepared and practiced script.
She cannot do a freestyle-type speech.
She cannot do a good interview about pertinent topics, simply because she doe not have a grasp of the issues.
That is the main reason she comes off sounding so ignorant on the subjects she is asked about.
It is also the reason for her constant nervous laughter and nodding her head and saying 'Right?'.
She simply is very unsure of herself and lacks confidence.
These are not the signs of a good leader and would get little respect from people around her, and especially not from other World leaders.
As much as the USA says they want a female President, they could have picked many better ones to run.
This 'selection' instead of a 'nomination' will only add to the lack of respect if she get elected and falters.
This is the exact reason(s) she was the first one knocked out the last time.
The Democrats had so many more viable and worthy candidates to run.
Harris would not be in the top 5 if it had been an open primary.
Newsom, Whitmer, Shapiro, Kelly, Pritzker all would have beaten her. Even Clinton, Sanders, Warren or even M. Obama would have beaten her.
For example: Harris has a feeble electoral track record ¡ª she struggled badly in 2020 and barely, before then, won her first attorney general race in California ¡ª but she¡¯ll benefit from a likely unified Democratic establishment, and she can forcefully press the case against Trump on abortion rights.
and:
A mediocre politician from a deep-blue state with low national approval ratings, she may find a way to win, but she would be nobody¡¯s top choice were she not the top choice of the president. Relief at Biden¡¯s exit will generate a lot of professed enthusiasm, but it will be fake.
and:
Even Biden fans see Harris as one of the weakest elements of his administration. A country desperate for change would bristle at the feeling that once again, real democratic choice is being sidelined in favor of the most deserving insider. And Harris is a fundamentally weak candidate. She fizzled out early in her first presidential run and floundered in the vice presidency.
The pundits all see this. But you have to give them credit in that they all do a great job of uniting behind their 'candidate' at the end.
Trump: Complains about gooseneck mic stand, adjusts it to show it's too low, mimes how he has to bend down to speak into it.
Democrats: "Oh my god, Trump is jerking off a microphone and simulating giving it head."
This is really all they have. "Trump is horrible. He sucks off microphones and wants to shoot Liz Cheney." Oh, and, "Stay away from our vaginas!"
The race is a coin toss.
Experts are saying this much, and they also say that no amount of persuasion will make any difference now. Everything now depends on turnout.
Harris was advised to drop the term "fascist" by an advisory team in her election campaign because it wasn't "cutting into" (resonating) with voters--seems the term "fascism" doesn't has much meaning for many Americans. I didn't like the term either, but that is over anyways for now. So credit to Team Kamala for adjusting.
I don't like Trump calling Kamala Harris "stupid." Then he adds "Hillary Clinton was smarter...she was a smart person actually....but Hillary was a horrible human being...." Is Trump the opposite of "horrible" (pronounced in a Queen's accent "harribul")?
I get it--he rose to fame by using this heated style on Jeb Bush in the Republican primaries (2015), but this style needed to be dropped when facing normal voters in the general(one would assume), and Trump has not shown any ability to adapt....It isn't funny, and it eradicates decency from the election, which is already questioned by so many.
Persuasion not based on facts isn't democracy, it's brainwashing.
Turnout would be extremely low without mail in voting, same day registration, ID verification....and this is why Americans vote so differently than the rest of the world. Turnout is already low, but would be embarrasingly low without eased restrictions, etc. And I see both sides claiming brainwashing on media channels, which is a form of rigging, or not voting based on policies, etc. So if people claim there is biased information (rigging) and brainwashing, and then you add in the unique ways of voting that are open to claims of fraud, the US election is simply not a great example for other nations to follow.
Taiwan or also Singapore is more of an example to follow. All ballots are paper, and voting is in person. Counting is done by hand, and in front of witnesses and cameras. This is a model to follow.
The US cannot do this system due to a huge dropoff in participation. So I expect claims of fraud regardless of who wins.....and the winner will be decided by turnout efforts in Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Most Americans apparently feel their vote "doesn't matter." I think they would feel differently if they were voting for the heads of federal bureacricies that do impact their lives (like head of the FBI, the IRS, Soc Sec, Health and Human Serv, etc, etc), but that's a different story.
This election has all the bad ingredients for a very heated, contested finale. Both sides threatening again , in one way or the other, to jail their opponents (Trump threatening 2020 election officials, etc, etc). The fear mongering and lack of respect will ignite the other side that has lost. All this circus after billions spent on advertising....Can't believe the leader of the free world is decided by the work of a handful of "get out the vote" groups in 3-5 states, due to this archaic Electoral College....Is this a way to do a "fair and free" democratic election?
The rest of the world is pausing their activities to watch a peaceful transfer of power from a free and fair election. This helps the US maintain "soft powers" in the world, be a standard bearer, etc, etc. so let's see what happens on Tuesday, and more importantly, what happens on Jan 6 (certification) and Jan 20.
Established in 1995,
It amazes me the amount of time you guys waste going round and round with each other.
