If you weren't trying to sweep trump's share of responsibility for the Afghan pullout disaster then why did you post this in response to the McMaster video?

FTR - I'm still waiting for you to quote my untrue posts about Covington Catholic.
:rofl: Your short out of context clip? Swept under the rug? And you know what you said!
I need to provide context? Have you read CH's posts? Dude drops random posts to mock biden and/or take attention away from trump's "issues" in response to totally unrelated posts.

That's how this (re)started, CH dropped a post about trump asking "for the resignations of every single senior official who touched the Afghanistan disaster" in the The P 2025 Magathread / Project 2025: the fascist playbook to take down the USA thread. I just put a good response here where it fits better rather walking around shitting all over the board. If trump's serious, he's going to need to ask for his own resignation. His fingerprints are all over that disaster.

That doesn't matter. By the standards set by SG, if I debunk one small part of the argument then the entire argument is moot. ;)

No, I'm just using a MAQA yahoo tactic to attempt to discredit an argument or take the debate down into the weeds where the original points might be lost.

Why do you say nothing when SG does it in support of doneOLD and MAQA yahoos but have a problem when I use it?

I agree it should be legal


Alcohol is legal, and no reason the government should waste time and resources chasing down a marijuana boat today like they did during prohibition, only it was alcohol

If People want to go around the streets giggling and looking for a taco, It’s fine with me.

Not political but stunning.

I live in the Seattle area and today the I405 near where I live was closed because they are building new on ramps. Anyway, all traffic had to exit right before reaching the area where I live and could then get back on a couple exits later, so obviously all traffic was diverted through our area.

I actually had to get me car serviced South of the detour and you could see it affecting traffic that far before.

Absolutely stunned at how much traffic was working it's way through all the roads. The whole area was one huge parking lot. Before this, I never gave one thought to how much traffic the interstate handles, but now I know, and as stated, it was incredible.

Very well could be

After all, he publicly stated that Joey Rotten, and his open border were ruining New York City and it might never recover.

This is a big no-no as you’re not allowed to tell the truth about the Biden administration, JoeBozo the serial liar, has certainly never told the truth about anything
