Went to the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden. Tens of thousands waiting in line for hours to get in. Thankfully we managed to get inside. Before they let us go into the venue we had to go through a checkpoint. We had to...

josefina "Puto Bungbong" reminds me that Christmas season comes early in the Philippines. Memories of Christmas past flood through my mind, of times when life was simple and less complicated. But we exchanged all that for more convenience and ease. Am I that old? No...

Just finished watching the Kamala/Walz campaign event

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (120119) • United States 6 Aug

Wow. That is all I have to say. Wow. Kamala was great as always but Tim Walz was an unknown to me. I thought he did an excellent job of making the case for the Harris/Walz ticket. Honestly he did better than I would have...

This Is Starting to Look Like Hillary Part Two

Jim Bauer @porwest (92589) • United States 5 Aug

Ever since Kamala Harris was announced as the Democrat's answer to Joe Biden, I have seen a very strong push by the media to prop her up. Now we are getting reports of polls, and a tightening race, and Republicans moving to...

Donald Trump - Coward of the county?

Victor Frankenstein @VictorFrankenstein (243) • United Kingdom 26 Jul

josefina Trump always had trouble dealing with women who have strong personality, starting with his mom. His misogynist, anti-feminist rhetoric and offensive behavior towards women is a smokescreen to hide his inadequacy.

George Conway's Anti-psycho PAC has put out 3 great ads so far

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (120119) • United States 2 Aug

and much in the style of The Lincoln Project (which he co-founded) they are designed to drive him absolutely nuts and make him act even more erratically. They know how to push Trump's buttons and they do it in a masterful way. I...

Disqualifying Trump from Running for Office

celticeagle @celticeagle (168269) • Boise, Idaho 2 Aug

josefina They're both great speakers. But I think the Kamala campaign is looking for someone who could project a young team. Tim Waltz would be a reminder of the older Biden image even if he is only 60. But his folksy manner might appeal to blue collar workers and...

josefina It's not surprising JD Vance said the Republican party got "sucker punched" with the Kamala candidacy. The coming poll surveys will tell us if it was more a gut punching that took the wind out of their initial campaign successes.
