[We will now have to dissect the when and how President Trump was the prime cause of all these massacres.  And one thing is clear to many of our tight thinkers, the man is able to make such things happen in cities where he previously held a campaign rally.  So finally, after all the years of mass shootings, we have identified their cause.  Socialist science marches on.  gjr]

    Plus: “Anyone who voted for Trump will have to sign up on the national registry’s website. Then, their name and address will automatically appear on a map of the country so that their neighbors can avoid them and hopefully beat them up.”

    Not good for the socialist dem clown car –
    China’s attempt to punish American farmers for U.S. trade policies has not shaken support for President Donald Trump.
    Farmer confidence in the agricultural economy soared in July, according to the Purdue Center for Commercial Agriculture’s latest survey of farmer sentiment. And expectations that the trade dispute with China will be resolved in a way that benefits U.S. farmers rose to their highest level of the year. The overall expectations index rose to 159 in July, 18 points higher than June and the highest reading in more than two years.
    President Donald Trump is gaining in popularity among farmers. A Farm Journal Pulse survey conducted last month showed that 79 percent of farmers now approve of the job the president is doing, up from 74 percent in the June survey. Fifty-three percent said they “strongly approve” of President Trump, up from 50 percent in June.

Kinda like you do here on a regular basis. If this person had such a tight knit community, why did they let him die on the streets? Seems like all the care and love didn’t arrive til the guy was sadly and conveniently dead.
    Anyway – if you HATE the American govt so much, why do you want them to run our health care system?

    Those comments prompted Omar to stress that she wasn’t the beauty queen’s representative since she didn’t live in her congressional district.
    “Hey, I might be wrong but I don’t think you are a #MN05 resident and like that makes be not your representative,” Omar tweeted”
    Gotta love the response.
    “Idan labeled the Minnesota congresswoman’s agenda “anti-American.”
    “Seriously @IlhanMN this is your intellectual come back?” she asked. “I said as a MUSLIM! I dont stand for your anti-American, anti-Semitic, Muslim Brotherhood agenda using this democracy to further YOUR & YOUR FRIENDS Islamic socialism goals of dividing & weakening our country.” “

    The Rs better think hard about this. We can get gun confiscation with the Dems – we don’t need the Rs for that. And no Dem is going to switch and vote for a R even if the Rs cave and give the Dems everything they want. This is one type of RINO that should become extinct. Dem-Lite is not a winning strategy.

    The US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) said Aldaoud had accrued 20 convictions over two decades including assault with a dangerous weapon, domestic violence and home invasion.
    The agency said that he had absconded from ICE’s non-custodial supervision program and remained at large for about four months, before he was arrested again on suspicion of theft. It also said he was “supplied with a full complement of medicine to ensure continuity of care” when he was deported.

    In the “eating their own” category — Fox News guy Shep Smith said, “White nationalism is without question a serious problem in America.” in direct contradiction to the ‘vacationing while sponsors cancel their ads’ Tucker Carlson who says it’s a hoax. I have already heard the ‘Smith is a liberal’ spiel but Smith is a liberal only because he has been labeled as such for having the guts to criticize trump and tell the truth now and then, contrary to the rest of Fox News.

    “Biden’s words in Iowa — “We have a president who has aligned himself with the darkest forces in this nation” — appear to be a lift from Robert Kennedy’s attack on LBJ when Bobby announced for president just days after Lyndon Johnson was badly wounded in the 1968 New Hampshire primary.
    Said Bobby of the father of the Civil Right Act of 1964: “Our national leadership is calling upon the darker impulses of the American spirit.”
    LBJ and his associates, Bobby went on, “have removed themselves from the American tradition, from the enduring and generous impulses that are the soul of this nation.”
    “We are fighting for the soul of America,” echoed Biden in Iowa.
    As for Wallace, whom Biden disparages, he was a segregationist, much like Biden’s patron, Sen. Jim Eastland of Mississippi, who called Joe “son,” and Strom Thurmond, whom Biden eulogized and who conducted the longest filibuster in history — against the 1957 Civil Rights Act.
    In George Wallace’s salad days, Joe sang a different tune, telling the Philadelphia Inquirer on Oct. 12, 1975:
    “I think the Democratic Party could stand a liberal George Wallace — someone who’s not afraid to stand up and offend people, someone who wouldn’t pander but would say what the American people know in their gut is right.”
    Perhaps Joe can become such a fearless leader in 2020.“

    Using FN’s Shep Smith to buttress anti-Trump sentiment displays such intellectual innocence. Smith, as an avowed and demonstrable liberal, can easily be used to substantiate FN as a truly balanced news source that regularly broadcasts anchors and panels populated throughout our political spectrum.
    And the loss of WW2 fathers without the consequence of mass shootings does nothing but support the argument that culture is the dominant determinant of social behaviors, especially when considered in the aggregate. WW2 did not destroy cultures, but did highlight their weak and strong aspects.
