    Maybe we just give up on your vote.

    You will if you count on me to vote for the likes of HC. It cost you the last election, and it will likely cost you this one. But, we'll see.

    Fortunately JL yours was not the only vote cast, and the dufus victory was not at all that overwhelming it cannot be overcome. Especially after 3 or 4 years of his antics.

    Don't forget - Dufus lost the popular vote by almost three million votes.

    And that was back when voters thought electing a canny and successful businessman would "drain the swamp" of greedy political insiders.

    Oh, you agnostic, you. You live in America and don't believe in the Wizard of Trump. Have you dared to look behind the curtain?

    2nd day of shutting down the airports in Hong Kong and the cops are cracking down. Stock markets in US going up after the dufus says he will ease sanctions on some Chinese products, the day after the markets plunged after another dufus tweet. Ya' think he should shaddup, or is this manipulation?

    Epstein still dead and his stuff is getting seized, and Barr says heads will roll over this.

    I estimate that the Reds will need to send in 100,000 troops and do some Stalingrad door to door if they think they can subdue the protestor . This is not wide open
    Tiananmen Square .

    Trump's words are uninspiring . Clearly he is being coached by his swamp critter advisors to not aggravate Xi . Too late .Xi has already made us his enemy . It is time for the US to stand with those in Hong Kong who demand liberty and freedom.

    No troops but the dufus could be hitting not just China but his BFF Kim, Vlad, and a few others with human rights rhetoric, but then he would be a hypocrite since he doesn't speak for freedom and liberty anywhere.

    So you think emboldening people to rebel is the way to go, when in fact, lifting your sanctions and not stuffing with the world economy would do so much more. You keep forgetting Hong Kong is part of China so what you have is a case of civil disobedience
