"Retard"? Yes, the grade-school definition.

No I mean his diminishing mental and physical capacity is alarming . The job ages the most fit individuals . He started out half a cabbage and it gets worse day by day.

He is not up to the task. It's pretty sad when he sends out Kam the Sham as a proxy to so many important events like the Munich Security Conference

Remarks by Vice President Harris at the Munich Security Conference | Munich, Germany | The White House

She has been touting her own capacity to lead in recent interviews which suggests she is setting the table for her ultimate assumption of the job.

What Trump should do is challenge Clueless to have a debate during a warm weekend at Clueless Joe's beach house. Maybe it can be conducted in his garage.

If they debate in shorts, then we can all admire Biden's hairy legs.

This election will be Trump's to lose. If he will keep his big mouth under control and run at least a semi-intelligent campaign, he will win big. Alas, I don't see him being able or willing to do that.

[tomder55]

of course since Trump refuses to debate Nikki ,he give Clueless a convenient out . All Clueless has to point to is Trump's refusal as justification for ducking a Trump debate .

I think Nikki should announce today that if she is the nominee she would choose Tulsi Gabbard as a running mate. Watch the Dems hair go on fire

[jlisenbe]

TG as a running mate would kill her chances. Gabbard is too far to the left for conservatives to support.

[tomder55]

She's in talks with Trump also .

Maybe you are right but she does appeal to the anti-interventionists . Neither Trump nor Nikki can expand support without appealing to centrists and disaffected Dems

earlier I noted that in total only 131,000 voters showed up to vote in the SC Dem primary

Polling for the Repubs continue until 7 PM today

The numbers are in for Repub early voting . 217 600 early votes were cast before today .

[jlisenbe]

I don't see it being close tomorrow. The lawsuit in NY has turned out to be nothing more than Trump persecution, and the case in Georgia is officially a complete trainwreck. It will all play to his advantage.

[jlisenbe]

Trump beats Haley in her own backyard by 60 to 40. Pretty decisive.

[tomder55]

There is no reason for her to drop out before the March 4 Super Tuesday primaries In the next 10 days there are 21 contests

Even then I am not sure she should exit the race. Alot can happen on the legal front. You mention the NY cases and the Georgia case. Those are the local . There are 2 Federal cases . I am sure that it is likely he will be found guilty in one of them (If the Jan 6 case in DC goes to trial he will be found guilty ......the more compelling case ;the document case ,is in a more favorable venue ;and Hur just kneecapped it in a way by saying that under similar circumstances; Quid would be guilty if he wasn't so mentally feeble.) . Once a guilty verdict is reached ,there will be a more compelling case to argue disqualification. Or perhaps the Repubs may find a way to remove him at or before the convention.

I am still hoping for a Fall race with 2 different candidates . Trump would have to be removed by Repubs .. Clueless Joe ? Perhaps he will do us all a favor and give us a March 31,1968 speech.

[tomder55]

From Haley's pov ;she took 40% in a state where every Repub leader supported Trump.
Trump won the partisan Repubs hands down . He had the advantage that there is push back against the lawfare campaign being waged against him ;and that Clueless Joe turned the border into a mess. (worse than it was )

Some disturbing numbers for Trump . A majority of her voters say they would not vote for him in the general election. In a close race that could be decisive. If Trump doesn't work to capture the middle he risks them not showing up or voting 3rd party ( I am still on the fence )

The cold hard fact is that non-registered voters are almost half the population ;with the major parties pretty much splitting the difference.He needs the Haley's and DeSantis Repubs on his side.

[jlisenbe]

It does not look good for the repubs if Trump is not the candidate. There are millions of hard-core Trump supporters who are completely prepared to just sit this thing out if he is, in their view, unjustly denied his place on the ballot. I just don't see Haley as being the answer. DeSantis would have been in a stronger position.

[tomder55]

Doesn't matter if she wins . What matters is can Trump hold her supporters (?).That I don't see at this point. She is not going to fold like DeSantis and Scott did ;and she does by default represent a good portion of the Repub coalition

I don't see Repub prospects being good if the party remains divided . Just look at the House of Reps . They have the majority and can't get anything done due to internal squabbles. Repub Representatives are choosing to quit in large numbers. 3 more ;all high ranking committee chairs called it quits this week.....
Cathy McMorris Rodgers, Mike Gallagher and Mark Green .I've lost count of the Speakers . There is going to be a challenge to Mike Johnson soon. So far, 23 Repubs in the House have decided to not seek reelection or resigned early, It is so bad that most votes get deadlocked on basic procedural votes.
It leads to small numbers of them who cross the aisle , effectively giving the Dems the power. It has lead to physical altercation and threats of fights in the Halls

I blame that on Trump's leadership . He is the one that turned a red wave into a trickle

I still support many of his policies . But he is too damaged and toxic with a vendetta agenda for my support.

Trump has done more than his share to divide the party. I don't see that changing.

[jlisenbe]

I blame that on Trump's leadership . He is the one that turned a red wave into a trickle

That might be true to some degree, but the bigger factor has been the desire of millions of American women to have their unborn children killed. They strongly hold to that position and will vote for anyone who agrees with them. Sad but true.

[tomder55]

yes that is part of it . But look at the demographics from yesterday . If Trump thinks he can win the nation with White Christian Males who did not got to college only then good luck . His talk of getting minority votes don't help when he says Blacks will vote for him because they love his mug shot . There are many conservatives like me who think he should learn from his experience and move on. Stop his grievance campaign ;and stick to the issues And most of all ,stop saying stupid stuff (Blacks going to vote for me because they like my mug shot......I'm going to be dictator on day 1.....if NATO countries don't pay their fair share I will encourage Putin to invade ..Hezbollah is smart)

[Wondergirl]

That might be true to some degree, but the bigger factor has been the desire of millions of American women to have their unborn children killed.

Why, pray tell?

[jlisenbe]

Why, pray tell?

You think there is a justifiable reason to have your children killed? Pray tell, what would that be?

[Wondergirl]

I asked you first.

Millions of American women???

[jlisenbe]

They have their child killed primarily because they do not sufficiently value their child’s life. That and the fact that there are many people out there lying to them.

Your turn. I doubt that you will take it. You usually don’t.

[Wondergirl]

I checked national statistics. Not millions. And they aren't children. When does man become a living soul?

[jlisenbe]

Your turn. I doubt that you will take it. You usually don’t.

Right again. You are so predictable.

When does man become a living soul?

The Bible, to my knowledge, never directly says, but if you are trying to appeal to a Biblical account that you have already said in the past that you believe is fictional, then please don't. Learn to be honest in your dialogue. There are many scriptures that demonstrate the unborn child is a separate person from the mother.

Tens of millions of American women have had abortions, so honesty has become a really serious problem for you. Bear in mind that I take the time to check my facts before I post them. I would like to see you do the same.

As to what the Bible has to say, consider the following. All of this is so easy to find for people who have any real interest in the truth. I'm not crazy about all of these, but several are very powerful. But I am prepared to consider all the scriptures you find that suggest to the otherwise.

• Psalms 139:13-16 David speaks of himself as a living being separate and apart from his mother during his mothers pregnancy - "I" and "me". David speaks of his personage while "unformed". The "blob of cells" or "tissue" that pro-abortionists say are not human is affirmed as human by God through inspiration of His servant David.
• Exodus 21:22-25 "Woman with child" affirms that before birth the fetus is a child separate and apart from the mother. Verse 23 states that, according to Old Testament Law, if a child is born prematurely and dies due to harm inflicted upon the child's mother, then the penalty for murder is imposed upon the individual causing harm to the woman. Do you think this would include an abortionist if we were living under the Old Testament Law?
• Psalms 51:5 The fetus is an individual separate from his mother at conception. The living person ("I"/"me") existed upon conception. The woman's "choice" is whether or not to have intercourse. Once a woman has conceived, God views the life of the unborn as precious and valuable as those already born.
• Ecclesiastes 11:5 This passage affirms that the fetus is a child, separate and apart from the mother. Today, man still does not know how or when the soul enters the fetus, but God affirms that a fetus is as much a child at conception as after birth. Therefore, we must believe that the soul enters a fetus/child at conception.
• Job 3:13-16 Job considered himself to be a living human being apart from any other human while in the womb.
• Luke 1:15 John the Baptist was filled with the Holy Spirit while in the womb; therefore, John was a living person while in the womb. A mass of tissue could not be filled with the Holy Spirit.
• Luke 1:41, 44 The babe leaped in her womb for joy. A baby in the womb can leap for joy - a mass of tissue cannot leap. If a mass of tissue could leap in the womb, it could leap outside of the womb. Have you seen a mass of tissue leap?
• Matt. 1:23 Mary, while pregnant with Jesus, is said to have a child before birth.
• Matt. 2:1 "Now after Jesus was born" considers that Jesus was Jesus before birth, while still in Mary's womb.
