In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last resort of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit it is the first.

I really hope Trump is rightfully convicted, and Biden stops splitting the party with his slavish devotion to Netanyahu.

[@davidgmillsatty1900]

Biden is a walking corpse and should be removed under the 25th Amendment. He would be Defendant but for the special prosecutor determining that he was not mentally capable of assisting his counsel at trial. Kennedy is the only candidate that deserves to be president.

Bidenomics, Barry/Joe have delivered these price increases to the fine folks in the USA at your local McDonalds: Medium French Fries, $1.79 with Trump, now $4.19. Big Mac $3.99 with Trump, now $7.49, Cheesburger $1.00 with Trump now $3.15. The democrats know how to run a country, into the ground.

‘DEFUND THE D.A.s Office.’ I don’t know why we pay them anyway.

[@MM-fq9gi]

We are now in the final stages of the musical chairs GQP, Nikki Haley made her move, saying she will vote for him, could Trump offer her the VP slot? Yes, she has hedged her bets as other bootlickers at the NYC courthouse have already made their moves. All counting on Trump bailing out, leaving them the presidential candidate or incumbent VP.

[@catf4865]

Hush money trail?

[@reason6835]

It’s just hyperbole. Like the January 6th “insurrection.” Or the Palestinian “genocide.” Libs love to exaggerate.

Yup. Those are the people they hire at MSNBC.
