If thats the case then every Harris campaign ad I’ve seen belongs in the ‘Kamala Harris gaffe and verbal bungles watch’ thread.

I’d rather bundle them (both sides) in the Trump v Harris thread.

Camoaign ads, even if they embellish, stretch the truth, distort, or are lies, aren’t the same as gaffes/verbal bungles

Trump casts ballot early in Florida primary: Here's what he has said about early voting
Former President Donald Trump voted early in the Florida Republican primary on Wednesday, casting his ballot at a polling location near his home in Palm Beach. But Trump's participation in early voting offers a stark contrast to some of his previous criticisms of the practice.
It's corrupt but it's good for me.

Can felons vote in Florida?

Trump is just playing by the rules democrats cheat by. Thats why this time around he wants to play the same game, win at all costs because this election will completely ruin the USA if Trump isnt elected. Its over if the idiot and stolen valor loser get in

Donald Trump's Tariff Proposal Sparks Warning From Economists
"Even if this tariff policy will be applied only to countries that Trump views as political foes, it is remarkable that a person as educated as Trump would see all imports from those countries as ripping off the US. A significant proportion of imports into the US are intermediate goods that reduce the costs of US firms allowing them to make profits in competition with foreign rivals both at home and abroad.

"A tariff, would raise the costs and prices of these firms, hurting both the firms and US consumers. Firms in the US that compete directly with imports can enjoy increased profits from an import tariff, but this would typically involve the firm raising its prices at the expense of US consumers."

Spencer warned that countries hit by Trump's new tariffs would be "highly likely to retaliate with tariffs or other trade restrictions" of their own in a move that would "directly reduce U.S. experts and profits."
...
"If the idea is to expand domestic production of goods so as to benefit U.S. workers, not much expansion can be achieved in an economy such as the U.S. that is close to full employment. Any attempt at a major domestic expansion will instead increase inflationary pressures. Also, an objective to enhance U.S. exports is likely to fail. By raising U.S. costs, the tariffs will generally make U.S. exports less competitive."
Either trump is an idiot or he thinks voters are idiots.

“Everyone was better off when you had a gentleman named President Donald J. Trump at the helm. Does anybody know him? Whoever he may be,”
He's referring to himself in the third person and asking if anyone knows him? He's lost it.

Strictly from a US President perspective, he did a lot but so did Nixon, Carter, and Clinton. Nixon's assistance came at a more critical point in Israel's struggle to survive.

When it comes to "doing more for Israel than any person", trump couldn't sniff David Ben-Gurion's, Yitzhak Rabin's or Ariel Sharon's jocks or Golda Meir's panties.

As far as Israel being in BIG TROUBLE, they've survived and thrived to this point and will continue to do so regardless of who is POTUS.
