THanks for posting that link.
“full-metal douchenozzle” thats a new one, jeez I thought I knew most all derogatory lines.

Good they are having a recount. Every ballot must be counted.

Absolutely, even the illegal aliens added in and need to be counted.

The last thing Trump should want is a runoff (new election) because Sinema will get all the Green Party votes. Have to just do with what you got.

BREAKING: Judge rules in Gov. Scott's favor, orders Snipes to allow ballot inspections immediately

Brenda Snipes Reported 634,000 Votes on Election Night – Today She Reported 717,000 Votes — Broward Officials Just Manufactured 83,000 Fraudulent Votes!
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...ward-officials-just-manufactured-83000-votes/

Why should ballots found after the time limit be counted?

Why is Brenda Snipes still in charge of voting stuff after a Judge found her guilty of destroying ballots in 2016?

Why can’t Supervisor of Election in Broward explain why on the night of the election she reported 634,000 ballots were cast in the General election and today she is reporting that over 717,000 ballots were cast? 83,000 more ballots?
It’s things like this that make people cynical.

The first book I got by @AnnCoulter
was "Never Trust a Liberal Over 3" In it, she explains exactly what is going on in Florida.
Liberals lose elections and then magically find ways to circumvent the results.

Ewww. That is beyond scary.

Recounts: Need to count the mail in ballots from black districts that got “misplaced” too. FL has had a lot of issues with mail in ballots in the past and the numbers skew suspiciously by district.

PS - re that dating site: Probably not the best choice, but no worries - you have MANY other options!

Snipes mixed up good and bad ballots. Miami Harald's lead is "WHOOPS!!".

Gov Scoot should blame himself. He had plenty of time and reason to remove Snipes. Many people asked him too.

If you weren't sure this guy is just dirt:

There is no reason for these massive, deadly and costly forest fires in California except that forest management is so poor. Billions of dollars are given each year, with so many lives lost, all because of gross mismanagement of the forests. Remedy now, or no more Fed payments!

Read the comments:

Many of which are federally owned. ..

98% of Forest Lands belong to the Federal Government. YOU cut funding to forest management. The forest fires in California ARE YOUR FAULT.

You really have no shame, do you? How about instead of threatening to cut the funding that helps deal with these fires, you support the brave people who are facing the threat of losing everything, including their lives, like a President should do. You’re a disgrace to our country

California has enough forest to cover the entire land mass of 27 other states. Of the 33 million acres, 1.6 million are managed, the rest is privately owned or wilderness. Get off your golf courses and visit some of these areas, hopefully you'll get lost.

Someone needs a remedial civics class (and reality check): you are not a king. You DO NOT have the power to withhold federal payments as a president. And with the recent blue wave, you will not get that power from congress- thank you God & all the voters who turned out & up!

Are BLM forest burning or the private / state owned forest? Did the fire start on federal land or private / state land ( it was a utility wire ).

BLM hires people to do forest management or delegates to the state. Much of the 33 million acres of federal forest are inaccessible by vehicle.

In reality, any forest fire with even moderate wind is impossible to stop. But CA state and environmentalist fight management / harvesting at every turn. So, yeah the state has some responsibility.

Caught a lot of heat so he had to pretend to care:

More than 4,000 are fighting the Camp and Woolsey Fires in California that have burned over 170,000 acres. Our hearts are with those fighting the fires, the 52,000 who have evacuated, and the families of the 11 who have died. The destruction is catastrophic. God Bless them all.

These California fires are expanding very, very quickly (in some cases 80-100 acres a minute). If people don’t evacuate quickly, they risk being overtaken by the fire. Please listen to evacuation orders from State and local officials!

Trump Calls Macron's EU Army Initiative 'Insulting'

On the other hand, many think that it's Trump who's been insulting (once more) during his visit.

It's Trump who called the EU a foe, questioned the validity of NATO, so it's only logical that European countries are taking stock of the new US thinking.
Also, European-centric defense initiative are nothing new, if you remember for example Western European Union (WEU).
But it's not meant to replace Nato, rather complement it.
Macron suggested in his speech it was like resource pooling for better burden-sharing, instead of the currently compartmentalized national initiatives and budgeting we have today.

The big insult actually is this: Macron said he would rather work toward autonomy of Europe than buy American weapons.

Seriously, Trump insults allies all the time, slaps punitive trade tariffs on them, vilifies free trade, and then... he wonders why they want to buy less from America ?!!
The real world is tough, and he is not equipped intellectually to handle the complexity of world affairs. Doesn't even understand he's now having to deal with the damage he is causing - in addition to the pre-existing mess.
You reap what you sow.

 

[mr-x]

What would be more cost effective. Living up to your obligations to NATO or trying to start a new coalition without the USA. France hires mercenaries. Germany can't find enough volunteers to man their military.

Or maybe Macaroon was talking tough for local press before meeting with the big bad wolf who wants EU to pay their obligations for their own protection.

Instead of buying 70% of their energy from their #1 geopolitical enemy; Germany, France and UK need to honor their financial commitments.
