American Politics

This could be why this person is embracing them now!

Does not surprise me that this democrat is being received with open arms.

Do you understand that the Democratic party is historically racist?

Whos kidding who? Setting the record straight on the political ancestry of modern American racism

There is not real differences between the political parities in the Dis United States of America. They are both looking out for their own interests. None of them are looking out for mine. Why? Because I am poor.

Historically? I doubt any White Supremacist organization member has voted for anyone in the Democratic Party rather than the Republican Party since 1968.

Interestingly, the Democratic Party's economic philosophy and methods and consequently their far, far superior economic policy results historically has not really changed in well over 100 years but their stance on social issues has. Hence, the reason no member of a White Supremacist organization having voted for them since the 1960's. Unless they so much prefer their obvious superior economic policy results more than they hate non whites. Then I suppose they hold their nose and vote for Democrats.

So if you want the Best of Both Worlds, by all means vote for Democrats, which is what anyone who wants that result should have been doing since 1960.

Amazingly, the Republican Party's historically godawful economic philosophy and methods and consequently horrific economic results have also not changed much in well over 100 years. And ever since the 1960's their stance on Social issues has become blatantly racist and intolerant. LOL. So if you want the Worst of Both Worlds, by all means vote for Republicans, which is also what someone who wants that should have been doing since 1960.

I am not all that interested in what stance political Parties take on Social issues. That's for suckers. Elected officials don't stop society from deciding what it wants in terms of Social issues and pushing for it until it gets what it wants, regardless how many Reagans and Trumps are elected vs Carters and Obamas. Therefore, to vote for crap economic results because the side that can only produce crap economic results is terrorizing you about caravans of immigrants coming to take your daughters and jobs or that the other side is going to force everyone to undergo transgender surgery is embarrassingly obviously a total con job meant to bamboozle suckers into voting for them and their predictably crap economic and national security results.

And what point would that be, about Canada?

LOL! As usually the MAGA faithless, can't see the trees through the forest and are blinded by dumb culture-wars MAGA ideology, too backwards, to see it's own U.S. nation in decline under MAGA Fuhrer 2.0.

Slow your MAGA horses! Once again no doubt, your MAGA knuckleheaded ideology and understanding, of Canada's energy situation, is nothing, if not very rudimentary at best.

What you fail to realize (and is blatantly obvious) is that Canada, the EU, China, the Global South and all the worlds nations, are pivoting with regards their energy security and future reliance on fossil fuels and moving more towards, clean renewable energy, after seeing yet another fossil fuel crisis, ballistic high diesel, gas and fossil prices go through the roof, due to your dumbass illegal MAGA Fuhrer/Bonkers Bibi's U.S./Israeli war on Iran.

But hey ...if Canada wants to build oil and gas pipelines to nowhere (beyond the current ones), they should have at it!

But let's be perfectly clear, many on the left in Canada, still believe it a "fool's errand" and once again will be a waste of taxpayer's money to enrich fossil fuel billionaires, and those future pipelines to supposedly supply Asia, are a relatively futurist dead end, as the Global South pivots to clean energy and electrification.

Not only will the future Asian market NOT be there in the abundance, for Canada to sell it's fossil fuels, but it's high cost of production per barrel of oil, will precariously leave put in very uncompetitive grounds with low production costs from OPEC, UAE, the Saudis and the U.S.

In the infamous nonsensical MAGA words, of Sec. Of Energy Chris Wright, "...there is, no there's there" {...essentially saying this about climate change...}.

AND FOR GOOD MEASURE (...to make my point clear):

Coincidentally, according to many sources like Bloomberg NEF, China's oil demand probably just peaked, in 2025. Even the biggest oil producer in China, Sinopec, recently came out and declared this. Sinopec, China Oil Demand 'Very Likely' Peaked in 2025, Aug 24th, 2026. https://www.rigzone.com/news/wire/si...84444-article/.

So please tell me, as the EU and the Global South (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Africa, Australia), follows China towards electrification, I wonder who these future Asian markets will be, that Canadian pipelines, are going to be selling their high-priced, fossil fuels to, ahead of the lowest cost producers like, OPEC or the UAE?

Remember when we had the discussion about SMR in the Dominican Republic? Well Thailand just announce today that they are going to pursue them. Target for commercial operation is 2037.

Spidy, please come back. We need more intelligent input into this thread. I am holding it down by myself right now.

Dr. Majid Rafizadeh is a political scientist, Harvard-educated analyst, and board member of Harvard International Review. He has authored several books on the US foreign policy.

You could also have quoted the son of the last king of Iran. This rafikzadeh is the same kind who fled his country to live a lavish life in USA. Of course he is respected by the leaders of the US terrorist army as he is playing their propaganda. These people were orgasming at the sight of seeing their former country being bombed by terrorists willing to give it the same fate than the late great republic of Syria.

-Majid Rafizadeh: "One of the most effective methods Israel used to weaken Hezbollah and Hamas was the systematic targeting and removal of leadership. Trump started to use the same tactic, then stopped. Reapplying it would deliver a helpful message that the regime cannot continue on its current path.

If the US is concerned that then there might not be anyone with whom to make a "deal," the US should not be looking for a deal. A "deal" will not be honored by Iran, anyway. The US should be looking for unconditional surrender.

Iran's rulers, who have murdered an estimated 100,000 of their own citizens, clearly could not care less if a million oil tankers are hit or if "ordinary Iranians" cannot buy food or fuel. Whatever happened to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's threat to reclaim for the people of Iran their leaders' secret bank accounts in the British Virgin Islands and $100 million villas?

The United Arab Emirates, after Iran targeted its territory with missiles and drones, once again highlighted the decisive, farsighted leadership of President Mohamed bin Zayed al Nahyan to cut trade and financial relations with Iran. Severing relations with Iran's regime should become the standard.

It would be a blessing to eliminate this Islamist regime and as soon as we can. It has spread terrorism, anti-Americanism, antisemitism and the sickening repression of a great people for nearly five decades. The opportunity is here. Let us get it done."

Easy for academics to write. But has he sat in a political chair with real diplomatic power? If he has not then he is NO expert in actual war fighting and diplomatic operations. I do not give my agency over to experts. He is just another individual writing from the safety of his arm chair in a office. Is he willing to put himself, son or daughter or any member of his family in harms way to accomplish the objectives he proffers in the quote the OP posted?

Individuals who lack the ability to think in a logical manner and perform analysis think the Dis United States of America are winning this undeclared military action.

Otherwise it just seems silly to complain about "racism" when we see the crime stats that you refuse to acknowledge.

What crime stats are you referring to?

Would those be the number of white police officers that kill minorities and receive no penalty for doing so?

Federal immigration agents (ICE) have killed at least five USA Citizens during the second administration of the current Article 2 leader, with at least 11 total fatalities (including non-citizens) from shootings by ICE and CBP agents since January 2025.

USA is a democracy, it's a simple and overwhelmingly obvious fact. Quite easy to verify.

The USA Is more precisely described as a constitutional federal republic. This means:

Constitutional: Government power is limited by the Constitution, which protects individual rights regardless of majority rule.

Federal: Power is divided between the national government and the 50 state governments.

Republic: Supreme power is vested in the people, who exercise it through elected officials.

The distinction between "democracy" and "republic" is often misunderstood. In modern political science, these terms are not mutually exclusive; the USA Combines democratic principles (majority rule and citizen participation) with republican institutions (elected representatives and constitutional limits on power). While the word "democracy" does not appear in the Constitution, the Framers (all white landholders and some that owned slaves) and early leaders like Thomas Jefferson and John Adams used the term to describe the representative system they created.

Sadly USA have never been a democracy, it's the uniparty running everything there. The party of war. No matter who they vote for they get john McCain. The current president campaigned on ending forever wars and what does he do when he gets his seat in the White House? Attack every body and threaten every others. What about his claims of ending the Ukraine war in 24 hour? Not even able to get Zelensky to shut his mouth in front of him and his idiot vice president. At least the powerful irgc guys slapped him good, president Donald Epstein is scared to confront them again.

The irgc are weak, they failed to protect the ayatollah and their top brass. Iran can't even export their oil and the economy is failing to the extent that even the mayor of Tehran is saying that the country is falling apart from the inside.

USA is a democracy, it's a simple and overwhelmingly obvious fact. Quite easy to verify.

Why would any American want to silence President Zelenskyj? He's a doing a great job humiliating the Russian losers.

The problem in the US is mainly the rampant antisemitism.

Otherwise it just seems silly to complain about "racism" when we see the crime stats that you refuse to acknowledge.

Is this the Republican example of a undeclared military action working on behalf of my fellow citizens of the Dis United States of America? Thank you Republicans for showing that you just don't care about the average citizen (especially the poor ones like myself) in the Dis United States of America.

Who but a loving, caring Repub so-called president would so generously promise to pay every American adult $5000 if they vote the way he wishes them to vote in order to prevent him from adding the 2026 midterms to his list of things he touched that turned to shit and died?

We all know how the conversation at Mar-a-Lardo went:

Miller: "Sir, the people who support you and your Republican Party have been blitheringly stupid enough to believe our "wokeism", DEI, Culture War bullshit talking points all these years and thereby put us into power in order to consistently over and over achieve our Party's singular mission and goal to produce one Great Depression, Great Recession and Massive American Jobs Destruction after another going back at least 100 years as well as plunge America into any and every Forever, Unwinnable, Counterproductive War of Choice possible, Sir. So, Sir, you know they will be blitheringly stupid enough to fall for a $5000 bribe that only numbskulls like them could ever believe you will pay, Sir."

Trump: "Of course, I know they are that blitheringly stupid. That's the reason I chose to run for office in the Republican Party!

Miller: "Sir, right, Sir. Sir, then $5000 is the bribery con number, Sir?

Trump: "Covfefe!

Miller: "Sir, yes, Sir! Sir, I'll load it into the teleprompter, Sir."

Lmfao, you democrats sure love to play the race card. I find the racism, Nazism, Islamism and antisemitism in the Democratic party to be repulsive. Instead of trying to work on their own party democrats starts to cry about Republicans. It's sad to see.

[SubCmdr]

Democrats have always been the racist party. They embraced slavery and Republicans stopped slavery. Democrats were racist 100 years ago and obviously are now.

This could be why this person is embracing them now!

I am starting to like this guy more and more. A liberal Democrat who is unafraid to stand up for America and who openly opposes the Woke, Communist (DSA) nut jobs who have apparently taken over the Democratic Party.

Does not surprise me that this democrat is being received with open arms.

Not only does it become more and more likely that Repub Donald Trump will leave office after two terms, 8 miserable years, with his classic Repub economic policies and stewardship having failed to create one single net gain private-sector American job, but the even more depressing although hardly surprising fact is it is possible that all three most recent Repub presidents combined, through 20 horrific years of their classic Repub economic policies and stewardship, will not have created one single net gain private-sector American job.

Do you understand that the Democratic party is historically racist?

historically the Democratic Party was deeply entangled with racism, particularly in the 19th and early 20th centuries. From its antebellum era through the mid-20th century, the party, especially its Southern wing, served as the primary political vehicle for slavery, Jim Crow segregation, and white supremacy.

Islamists are proud to die when your fat Trump is afraid to die and same for your marines. Trump was elected with Musk corruption and now Trump is trying to corrupt again, USA are not a democracy, under Trump.

Democrats have sponsored terrorism for years and years.

The US army is the biggest terrorist entity in the word. They are not called the US terrorist army for nothing. So democrats or republicans are two sides of the same coin in that matter.
