Does it really offend you that a Muslim is running for office? How do you feel about Trump selling out America for a used plane that no one wants. The Qatar "regime" that funds Hamas building military bases in Idaho should concern all Americans. What is your position on that?

If Obama had done the same MAGA would want his head!

[QUOTE=RamDavidson84;3031973]LOL. So Trump only ran for president to avoid Jail time? And fooled all the Americans who voted for him. Man, he must have been sweating bullets those FOUR YEARS IN BETWEEN ELECTIONS waiting if he was going to not win and end up in Jail. LOL, the stuff I read on this forum really cracks me up.

There is one thing I know for sure, if Democrats even had the slightest chance to imprison Trump on real charges, it would have happened in, oh lets say, THE LAST 9 YEARS SINCE he RAN FOR OFFICE the first time!

As for Qatar, I don't know how you are coming to the conclusion that Trump begged for a free jet. Are you really trying to insinuate that Trump is so hard up for cash, that he went to a foreign nation and begged for a Jet. Not money, not stock investments, not gold, not diamonds, not crypto-currency, but a mother fucking Jumbo giant fucking jet. That's what's really going to get Trump out of debt. A fucking jet. Nope, he doesn't want money, this mother fucker solves his financial problems with Jets lolololololol. This is some stupid fucking shit. There is a true lack of common sense among certain people on this forum. Please just take the time to think before you write..[/QUOTE]Dude, there's no need for you to drone on. Trump is a convicted criminal. Were it not for the fact that he is president he would be in jail: it's that simple. So much for the old adage in America that " No man is above the law. "

Your explanation for Trump billing the US taxpayer to retrofit a jet (costing nearly $400 million dollars) is delusional and nonsensical. Trump is a cheap fuck who will have the US taxpayer gift him a jet. Would you be ok Obama had done something like this?

We are not going change the Middle East. Clinton brokered a deal with Ararfat and Rabin that unraveled. This so called "agreement" that Trump did will not last.

Can you please explain why a country like Qatar (they fund Hamas) can be trusted on a military base in the United States. It's insane even Steve Bannon and Lara Loomer have attacked it.

But please remember this is the American Politics Forum and if you make a post, especially one which doesn't make any logical sense, it will most likely always receive a reply.

Trump has done nothing to warrant jail time and he has been a god send for American to the point even Joe Biden has recently congratulated him on bringing peace in Israel. Personally, I would rather see an end to wars through effective Presidential Policy than quazi-fake charges to eliminate and slander political rivals. There is no evidence what so ever Trump belongs in jail, which is why he is not in jail. Democrats strengthened the Republican Party like never before when they impeached him twice on bogus charges they knew wouldn't stick. Even the Democrats are not stupid enough to try it a third time and completely destroy all their credibility, which honestly it looks like they have done already. They have clearly lost the independent swing vote for the short term future.

So Airforce One is 35 years old and it's probably time for a new aircraft. The 400 million is the price any President would have to pay to retrofit a new jet. In the grand scheme of things, 400 million is nothing if it is going to lead to peace and prosperity in the middle east. Again, Trump is actually trying to solve problems rather than take the basement strategy- Biden, or the bend the knee strategy- Obama. Obama paying tribute to Iran was in my view a true crime against the American people. Should we have not accepted "THE STATUE OF LIBERTY" from France because it was going to cost tax payers money to install it? You have to think bigger than tax dollars sometimes and consider the long term benefits of such deals. It was nothing but a positive moment for America to have Qatar gift us that jet, but of course Democrats don't want anything positive to happen for Trump so they try and put a negative spin on it. And some fools can't see it for what it truly is.

In regards to changing the middle east, We already have bud. Look at the peace deal in Israel. And I can absolutely ensure you, if we don't try to foster peace with the middle east, we won't LOL. They will continue to be an adversary and an economic competitor rather than an ally and a trade partner.

I'll be honest, as I said before, I am not the geo-politics expert on the middle east and I am not familiar with the military base you speak of, but common sense tells me this off the top of my head. The USA has thousands of military bases all over the world, one more in Qatar is not going to make a bit of difference and it is just more whining and crying over nonsense from Democrats because they don't want to see Trump succeed.

For the record, if Biden had won and he was enacting the same exact policy in the middle east, I would see it exactly the same. I agree with the logic in Trump's policy.

Once again, the joke is on the MAGA cult faithless, as they are again suckered into thinking their MAGA Fuhrer's [B]"America First"[/B] actually means, putting real hardworking "Americans" first.
[LIST][b]The $20 Billion Question: Why Did Trump Bail Out Argentina?[/b] Oct 9th, 2025

[i]The bailout sparked bipartisan outrage back at home. [b]U.S. soybean farmers,[/b] still angry from the trade war with China, accused Trump of helping Argentina compete against them. Argentina exports millions of soybeans to China, pushing U.S. prices down. This prompted Republican North Dakota representative Julie Fedorchak and Iowa senator Chuck Grassley [b]to call the package [u]a betrayal[/u] of the America First agenda.[/b]"[/i] [url]https://moderndiplomacy.eu/2025/10/07/the-20-billion-question-why-did-trump-bail-out-argentina/[/url][/LIST][NOPARSE]Yet another clear example of the MAGA Fuhrer, was never intending to govern in the best interests of hardworking Americans. But rest assured, much of that $20 bn, of hardworking U.S. taxpayers money, probably won't see the light of day, considering Argentina still hasn't rectified it's gov't crypto corruption problem[/NOPARSE].

The American farmers, are just the latest, to fall victim, to the [B]so called "America First",[/B] all talk and no substance, MAGA bamboozle bullshit!

But the real kicker (as always), is how is the MAGA Fuhrer, his family and the billionaire pick-pocket cronies, going to get their cut?

[QUOTE=KeviKev68;3032145]I don't live anywhere near NYC and as such I don't care who is running for office there. Does it really offend you that a Muslim is running for office? [/QUOTE]KeviKev, where do you get off accusing me of being anti-Muslim? Show me where I have indicated I judge people by the color of their skin or their ethnic or religious origins. In my post I pointed out several key positions that the radical, WOKE, communist Mamdani supports and why these policies will have a disastrous effect on NYC and its remaining residents if he tries to implement them as the mayor. Rather than discuss these issues which apparently you are totally ignorant of, you choose to attack me as a racist instead. What a joke. HAHAHA.

I mean how do you know I am not a Muslim, or do you think all Muslims support Mondami and Woke communism? Which sounds kind of racist IMHO. In addition, applying your groundless racist criterion, I could accuse you of being anti Muslim for your opposition to President Trump's Qatar cooperation pact. Double HAHAHA!

So do I think phase 2 of the ceasefire agreement with Hamas will be implemented? No, I doubt it because Hamas is a radical, suicidal, terrorist organization and I just do not see them laying down their weapons voluntarily and ceding power in Gaza. But the living hostages are back home, Iran has been defanged, and all the Sunni leaders in the region support the peace deal which is a huge foreign policy achievement for Trump. And with the hostages safely back home in Israel, forcing Hamas to lay down their arms will be a lot easier.

None of this would have happened under the leadership of incompetent Joe & word salad Kamel face or the naive pro radical Muslim leadership of President Barry Obama. Remember it was Obama who almost handed over Egypt to the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist organization back in his 1st term. That foreign policy blunder did not happen, Thank Buddha, but only due to the swift action of the Egyptian Military.

Do you know why? It is very likely you don't know why.

It is because Joe Biden got two ceasefires over the finish line. His first one in November 2023 got 105 hostages released. His second one in January 2025 got 33 hostages released.

That is vs Trump getting one "renewed" ceasefire deal over the finish line after Netanyahu had already delayed a previous ceasefire deal so his doing so would improve his chances of putting numbskull Trump in the White House instead of a tough Democrat, after Netanyahu had essentially so totally run out of places in Gaza to bomb he was taking to bombing other countries by mistake and after Hamas had run out of defense weapons.

And so Trump got the last 20 hostages released. That's good.

By some counts it is 150 hostages released by Biden in two far tougher ceasefires vs 28 hostages released by Trump after Netanyahu was tapped out of ideas for what to do next.

[QUOTE=DCups;3032320]Classic Trump Derangement Syndrome. Actually an addiction. Get professional help, Tooms![/QUOTE]So the definition of TDS has finally come down to years of actual real and verified news reports supporting everything the "victim" of TDS has been asserting and absolute zero refuting it?

That definitely supports the idea of a Derangement problem happening in the heads of one side. But not with the side providing all of the data and evidence to support their contention.

LOL. I remember when the MAGAs and pretend "bothsider-neithersider" MAGAs here dismissed reports of Trump's previous pre-Trump's Pandemic defunding and removing of those Disease / Pandemic Prevention and Response team leadership from their critical positions of communication to do what they were stationed there to do as just some bureaucratic oversight, a mistake nobody could have predicted would turn out the way it did, nothing to see here, it'll likely never happen again.

And now Trump is doing it again and again in real time this very day. And those MAGA excuses have gone missing.

Except for your insistence that the real news reports, our reading of them, our unavoidable comprehension of the plainly stated and obvious meaning of them is simply a Trump Derangement Syndrome. Lolol.
