Off topic, he was one of the better guest judges on Drag Race. Just saying lol

You do pick and choose information that doesn't demonstrate the failing Russian economy. And you do whatever it is you need to do to live in your delusion. A five fold increase in the budget deficit this year: https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2025/06/10/russias-budget-deficit-up-fivefold-over-2024-finance-ministry-a89405 Putin is even seems to be even worse than the Incompetent-in-Chief when it comes to economics. Question remains why does America's national embarrassment continue to bend the knee to this second tier power.

Oh my god, you mean in her 50 years of public life she proposed a dumb idea? Shocking. You missed out a piece of the 2005 proposed legislation. The law would have prohibited burning or otherwise destroying and damaging the US flag with the primary purpose of intimidation or inciting immediate violence or for the act of terrorism. The Incompetent-in-Chief's aim is the opposite, he wants to intimidate and incite violence.

Yes, you have to be able to walk and chew gum. The 12th (you say) largest GDP, with a massive budget deficit - it's even larger than the one the Incompetent-in-Chief has saddled America with. Hence the benchmark interest rate hovering around 18%. Sorry, that was third number.

You hang on to any factoid of information that helps you make it through your MAGA day. Hold on tight. Meanwhile out here in the real world, hopefully the files are released in their entirety and whoever's names are mentioned are mentioned. We've seen the partying together videos, Trump will likely be mentioned through out. In reality: Attorney General Pam Bondi pressured 1,000 FBI personnel to comb through tens of thousands of pages of documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and flag any mention of President Trump. FBI agents combing through documents to white wash any mention of Trump - while there is this crime spree in Mississippi and Louisiana happening. Might have been more efficient for Trump to call out the Nation Guard to comb through the Epstein Files for mentions of Trump. If there is no there there Trump wouldn't be worried. But you hold on tight to any factoid of distraction that gets you through your MAGA day.

Look at that, you can do a Google search and misrepresent the information. Yes, oil and gas sales have plummeted as you point out. And the revenue still represents 30% of the annual national budget. Money that is funding the invasion of a sovereign neighboring state - Ukraine. As far as Putin spreading the nuclear threat to ever new countries (Turkey) Putin should be careful what he wishes for. He's a sad figure. He can only murder domestic threats for so long before someone gets to him. We now return you to the original posters subject of comparing weak pussy Trump to warmonger W.

Yup, a colony supplying resources.

Old news sad man. Democrats, in general, have called for the release of the files and whoever gets named, gets named. It's called the rule of law. It's one of the significant differences between the Democrats and the MAGA extremists. MAGA hasn't shown respect for the independent rule of law. If Clinton were named, so be it. However your question about Clinton - is bullshit. You know it. We all know it. It's the same fever dream bullshit as pizzagate. As an American tax payer it must really piss you off about Attorney General Pam Bondi wasting the time of hundreds of FBI agents spending thousands of hours to remove references about Trump from the files.

I wonder what Putin thinks about being around growing powers like China and India, while he has past glories of empire.

Last sentence, was that a typo? "he (did you mean we) will no longer be allowed to"

Make America Gavin Again blue ball caps would get under Trump's hide.

From reading posts on here, It's what I've come to expect from MAGA minions.

The beauty of the Incompetent-in-Chief is that the more Americans see him, the more they hate him. It's one of the reasons his operatives work so hard to hide him in the last stages of his campaigns. They're desperate for him to shut up. I know the USA is in a downward spiral with the Incompetent-in-Chief right now, and remember he is the most unpopular president since WWII.

According to the World Bank the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Russia was worth about $2,173 billion US dollars in 2024. That'd be 11th in the world, one spot ahead of Canada ($2,241 billion) - the country the Incompetent-in-Chief says shouldn't exist. The GDP value of Russia represents about 2 percent of the world economy. Russia is a petrostate, 30% of Russia's federal budget comes from oil and gas. Cut off their oil and gas revenue and Putin would be facing domestic enemies even more than he is now. I'm not in favor of coups (such as the Incompetent-in-Chief tried in the USA), but it's likely that that would be Putin's end with more effective sanctions. Trump is too weak to confront a second tier power with approximately 1/14th of the economy.

I don't think balls have much to do with it. It is surprising that there is one Republican on a Congressional Committee that has, so far, aligned with the Democrats to have files released to Congress. That probably did take balls (credit where credit is due).

There were two bright spots for me about Jerrold Nadler's retirement announcement. First, he put the greater good before his own personal ambition. Second, he endorsed the Democratic Party's candidate for mayor of New York City, Zorhan Mamdani. Hopefully it'll lead to more endorsements and put to bed this weird notion that a democratic socialist is some kind of radical. The citizens of capitalist Sweden, capitalist Norway and capitalist Denmark have all fared better than American citizens with their democratic socialist governments.

It's an interesting, though accidental point, that our resident Putin apologist makes. Russia is a 2nd tier economy on the world stage, unlike Germany before WWII. While Chamberlain was appeasing a significant power, the Incompetent-in-Chief in the White House is appeasing a 2nd tier dictator. Demonstrating yet again how weak Trump is, and how much weaker he has made the USA.

Under the Ukrainian Constitution Zelensky can't cede any national territory in a peace deal. For peace to happen, Russia will either have to agree to leave occupied Ukrainian territory or be defeated.

One of the problems with posts from Moses and other Trump minions, is you never know if they know what they've posted is bullshit, or if there is an issue of intellectual compromise and they honestly believe the lies and bullshit emanating from the Kremlin and White House. And sometimes, it's just making shit up. Under the Ukrainian Constitution Zelensky can not cede territory to the Russians as part of a peace agreement. There is nothing stopping Zelensky from negotiating a peace agreement with Putin that cedes no sovereign Ukrainian territory to the Russians. And, recognizing that, they only way peace is going to be restored is when Putin is defeated - which means all hands on deck from all NATO allies.

Not sure if the constant lying leads to binge eating or drinking, however, I'd say Karoline Leavitt is about 5lbs away from dismissal by the Trump administration's scale.

Has Ruby Moss got her money yet, to compensate for the lies promoted by Giuliani and the threats to her life that resulted. Unrelated, apologies to the original poster, I'm wondering if Newsom will come out with a MAGA gallery of toilet paper - those would sell like hot cakes.

Trump has always been weak, a rich bully NEPO baby yes, but still personally weak. It is quite an accomplishment for him to make the Bush presidency look good however.

There has got to be a better economic indicator than GDP. About 70% of GDP is driven by consumer spending which was hovering around 1% growth, if you believe in a growing economy that is weak. As weak as the Incompetent-in-Chief. But overall GDP growth was about 3%. Averaging out that billionaires are doing well under this "President" hides the disaster economy for the rest of us. Democrats need to batter home that the Republicans have always been bad for the economy and the government's financial situation. I know that "don't tax the rich or spend on average Americans" isn't catchy as a slogan - it's still a reality we can't afford.
