    I see that Rasmussen Reports shows Trump: Approve 52, Disapprove 47
    I’ll bet most of that 47 percent is illegal aliens, men-in-dresses, ANTIFA.

    BarryP 120pm – Does it appear again that Paul’s 143pm strongly implies that his leftwing news sources don’t cover the videos and reports of accolades for Trump from international leaders? It seems like he’s totally ignorant of the pro-Trump global groundswell.

    Basic information supporting my opinion is my eyes. I read international news. I know the movements in Georgia, India, Romania, Hungary, Scotland (where I am right now), Austria, Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Russia. Making your country great again is alive and very popular worldwide. The destructive idea that western liberalism is a universal concept applicable to all cultures is dead. Huntington seems to have been correct in his characterization of Fukuyama’s vision. This is what Trump represents and such thinking is very popular worldwide. Stop reading propaganda Paul. Get out of your hole.

    Since the liberals (e.g. PaulE) have no policy proposals to argue their case, all that is left is to continue denigrating Trump with whatever poll numbers they can muster. Recall that they did that during the last four years under Bumblebrain, continuously predicting Trump’s downfall in the 2024 election to no avail. They have learned nothing save to continue bleating about the polls. It’s the ONLY thing they have left to talk about. Booooring.

    The fact that you have chosen to ignore Trumps pathetic poll numbers caused me to believe that you are willing to be ignorant of the factual reality of what this means. This is consistent with your ignoring the daily lies that Trump spouts that any intelligent person would laugh at. Odd because I consider you an intelligent person.
    this iss the real news, how someone like you can support this crooked clown for President. I mean Trump still lies that he won the 2020 election.

    PaulE 244pm – Your continuous droning of Trump’s downfall over the last four years should have been an embarrassing error for you – but instead it was water off the duck’s back. Only you in these pages have been “ignorant of the factual reality” of what the polls have meant – i.e. mostly nothing. And yet you continue to march on bellowing about the sky falling on Trump when the man has had the most spectacularly successful first six months of any president in US history. This is attested by the Democrats being scared shitless to make any public noise (not a single policy proposal) save telling more lies about the country’s progress.

    Isn’t Trump “fooling people all the time” when he says things like “I see that we had a couple of states where gasoline was at $1.98 a gallon,” President Donald Trump said White House event April 22. ” If that’s not lying what is it?
    I can find hundreds of examples of his outright lies to his pathetic followers who believe every word he says.

    Here is one of your lamestream falshoods you called out Trump for lying –
    However, despite the video and the months of police actions afterward, the mainstream media claimed that Trump was either outright lying or at least “exaggerating” the severity of the situation in Colorado.
    The New York Times led the attack on Trump with a headline blaring, “How the False Story of a Gang ‘Takeover’ in Colorado Reached Trump.”
    This story from September of 2024 called Trump’s claims a “tall tale,” “false,” “misinformation,” and “fear-mongering,” among other things.
    But now the same paper is admitting that the story is true and posted a new story titled, “Democrats Denied This City Had a Gang Problem. The Truth Is Complicated.”
    In its new story, the Times is admitting that violence at the hands of Venezuelan migrants has been rampant in Aurora and Denver, and residents were terrified of the gangs.
    In fact, now the paper is claiming that it was the Democrats who were engaging in all the misinformation.
    “The more central Aurora became to Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric, the greater the temptation among Democratic politicians and activists to wave away talk of gang activity in the city as a right-wing hallucination,” the Times wrote this month.
    “But their refusal to acknowledge the violence that some residents were seeing with their own eyes came off not as reassurance but as erasure,” the paper scolds.
    The Times’ new take on the gang takeover of Aurora, Colorado, is a complete turnaround since the story broke in 2024.

    What does that have to do with Trump being a liar or not? Do you believe Trump was telling the truth when he said “I see that we had a couple of states where gasoline was at $1.98 a gallon” That is the President of the United States telling an outright lie. do you believe that was a truthful statement Don?
