Lesson number one is to not insult the other party (ies). That would include name calling. You must have been absent from school that day.

LOL what actually worked? Did Putin invade Ukraine (or any other country) during Trump's time? For the record, Putin did invade Ukraine in both Obama and Biden presidency, so which POTUS is the best diplomat out of these recent three?

[Gino02]

And once again, it's even worse than that.

I bet he was holding that note right in front of his face when he told a military widow that her late husband knew the risks.

LOL and your point being? Did Russia invade Ukraine or any other country during Trump's time? Stay on point please.

[Xpartan]

And this is the most alarming part cited right there in the highlighted sub headline and body of your link!

By stark contrast, the one below wasn't an alarming cue card telling a real POTUS the stage directions and speaking / entering / exiting order of things for a public meeting.

No, the one below was a perfectly reasonable cue card telling a so-called potus how to look and sound somewhat like a normal human being listening to testimonials about the mass murder of children:

Trump was actually caught holding a note from staffers reminding him to be empathetic when talking to people

"Trump had great people around him" Really? By what measure? If one measures "greatness" by the number if indictments handed down, then yes,.

Bannon, Manafort, Stone, Flynn, Papadopoulos, Gates and Cohen. All indicted. All close to the Orange Buffoon. But let's not forget the dozens of people who Donnie "I only hire the best people" the Dumbass hired, then fired and who left the administration to the tune of "he was a loser".

Of course, compared to Nixon (28 people indicted who were "close to" Nixon) and Reagan (33 people indicted), the Mango Mussolini was an angel.

But compared to Clinton (2 people indicted), Obama (0 people indicted) and Carter (0 people indicted), not so much. https://www.politifact.com/factcheck...trump-reagan-/.

But sure, keep up the falsehoods. You guys crack me up!

All were setup, by a corrupt Democratic Party, FBI CIA, and others. Manafort was a mistake and definitely a crook. I would take any of these guys over the clowns Bidden has surrounded himself. Take a look at the economy, gas prices and crime all way up, no denying it. Yes, Trump was a bad guy, but he did a good job up until.

Jan 6.

I guarantee the war would have never started or would have ended under Trump. Bidden for some stupid reason is doing everything in his powers to keep it going and doing nothing to find a solution or compromise between the 2 countries. Again, Bidden is not calling the shots. He has one foot out the door, he will powerless in 4-6 months or sooner. If liberal media is turning on him his days are numbered, thank god. He is destroying this country. Somebody needs to step in before it is too late.

Biden accidentally flashed a cue card telling him exactly where to go and what to do at a White House event.

You're right. Like I said earlier, puppeteers are calling all the shots in this joke of an administration. Sad and bad for the people.

Don't buy anything from that turd.

"Joe Biden's presidency is failing. And Americans are hurting because of it. " - Opinion by Chris Schlak, USA Today.

(https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/opini...-it/ar-AAYOKw1).

Even MSM like USA Today are calling Biden a failure now. I am not even quoting the real news orgs like Fox, OAN or Newsmax.

"Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell wants to 'get back' to the Trump era of low inflation and rising wages. "

(https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...IM-TALENT.html).

So what's your vote on this? We will tally all votes on Monday June 27th.

"Donald Trump would have been a much better POTUS now than Joe Biden". - YES / NO / Not sure?

I must say I'm not impressed.

[Gino02]

Ah, that's what it was. Shrewd and intelligent. So shrewd, in fact, that no one was supposed to know exactly how shrewd and intelligent that "diplomat" (LOL) was.

Compared to this one (Buyden) we are stuck with now until removal by impeachment, 25th amendment or forced resignation, Trump was way better diplomat. Can you deny that?

Is Trump the best ever diplomat? Nope.

Is Trump better diplomat than Buyden? Definitely.

Stay on point please.

Yes, he had a great week. Fell off a bike, sent more money to Ukraine to keep the war going and making Russia richer. The more gas prices go up the less incentive Putin has to compromise. He got what he wanted, he has the ports, I doubt he really cares about anything else. I do not think this was not his initial strategy and they were definitely losing for awhile, but this does not seem to be the case now. Putin is laughing at the states and Europe, they are definitely winning now and no end in site, of the dumb war. Great job Bidden.

Lastly, he gets in a fight with oil companies, this is the last thing he should be doing. Find a compromise and a solution, but Democrats want to fight with everyone and blame everyone for their problems.

If you subtract Trump from the polls, I would bet Bidden approval is in the teens now, not the 30's.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- With the U.S. Supreme Court expected to overturn the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision before the end of its 2021-2022 term, Americans' confidence in the court has dropped sharply over the past year and reached a new low in Gallup's nearly 50-year trend.

Gee, who would have predicted this outcome with 6 of the 9 justices appointed by a Repub so-called potus who was either kicked out of office after one horrible term, never got the most votes in a presidential election, produced among the worst results of all time or, as in the case of Trump's 3, were appointed by a so-called potus who falls into all of those categories along with being the most corrupt occupant of the White House in history.

Cue cards are common, but right-wing commentators treated this one as a serious gaffe.

You guys are so rookies about diplomacy, probably even worse than the stupid Buyden. Hilarious.

Diplomacy Lesson #1 for you dumb dumb dems. An intelligent and shrewd diplomat makes the other parties think that they are the ones making the decision, but actually they are dancing to the tune of the smart diplomat. That's Trump, but you and your still Buyden supporters will never get that.

Lesson number one is to not insult the other party (ies). That would include name calling. You must have been absent from school that day.

Elvis, you don't know anything about history, the political parties, the economy or the stock market. Best you steer clear of those topics and just be happy your latest coin flip recouped a small portion of your gambling losses.

Glass-Steagall, which went through several revisions since the early 1930's, was already being violated and allowed to be violated by court decisions years before it was deemed obsolete in the global banking world, repealed by an overwhelming veto-proof Repub Majority Congress and replaced in late 1999.

And this is utterly aside from the fact that the Great Repub-Bush Financial Crisis Crash that happened 9 very long years later was not for lack of regulations on the books to prevent Liar Loans from prevailing to prop up an otherwise typically crap Repub economy. It was for lack of enforcing those regulations and, further, for lack of interest in enforcing banking regulations by the Repib administration at the time, a constant theme in all Great Repub Banking Crisis Disasters for the past 100 years.

https://www.cato.org/policy-analysis...t-myth-reality#what-exactly-did-the-glass-steagall-act-proscribe.

Damn you ElhTooms! I also read the revisionist history of Glass-Steagall written by Elvis but you were faster on the draw. His "history" of the Glass-Steagall Act wasn't even close. First of all it wasn't written by Joe Kennedy. Senator Glass was the principal author and his original bill stalled in the House in 1932. In 1933 with Representative Henry Steagall as a co-sponsor the bill passed and was signed into law by FDR. I'm positive Elvis has no idea what the purpose of Glass-Steagall was or why it was important to Depression era banking.

I found it interesting that Elvis claimed that President Clinton repealled the Glass-Steagall Act. I wonder if they teach Civics where Elvis comes from? Presidents don't pass or repeal laws. When a bill is passed by the Congress the President signs it into law or vetos the bill. In the relevant case, Representatives Leach and Bliley along with Senator Gramm (all Republicans) sponsored the bill which passed both houses of Congress and was signed into law by then President Clinton.

Of course, as you pointed out the Glass Steagall Act even if it had not been largely repealled would have done nothing to prevent the Great Recession of 2008.

Best post ever, but I really do not think Bidden is calling the shots. It is the crazy ass people he has surrounded himself with. Trump was an Ass, no denying it, but for the most part he did a good job, he does need to go away. The difference between Trump and Bidden, is Trump had great people around him, that at least tried and had some common sense.

I think one of Trumps biggest mistake was keeping Fauci, he should have fired him immediately. He deserves a lot of blame as well. If he had his ways we would still be locked down. Trump was able to keep sone of the economy up and running, if this would not have happened we would be in even worse shape.

"Trump had great people around him" Really? By what measure? If one measures "greatness" by the number if indictments handed down, then yes,.

President Trump has gone to extraordinary lengths to conceal details of his conversations with Russian President Vladi*mir Putin, including on at least one occasion taking possession of the notes of his own interpreter and instructing the linguist not to discuss what had transpired with other administration officials, current and former U.S. officials said.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...0a8_story.html

That's before he ditched interpreters altogether.
