US Political News and Trump’s China visit

"My advice to that underdeveloped French politician is to remind him that had it not been for the United States of America, the French would have been speaking German now. So, they should be very grateful to our great country."

Trump has the vocabulary range of a fourth grader. It's astounding to watch a grown man talk like that all the time.

It's the fact that the American public look at this and said "Yep, This Guy" that's astounding

My cousin went to Disney land a few years ago in Florida, and I asked him what were the Americans like, and he said "Dumb as shit"

America being so large their will always be intelligent people, but American educational system is severely lacking and the majority of Americans go through it and just dopey people, easily swayed

Think they type of morons who think WWE is real
That's the type of people who are MAGA voters

I didn't mean that as an insult to all Americans. Americans are like any other people: there are smart ones and dumb ones. As a culture, American culture is better than most and has achieved more than most others.

Lately, the government has been under Zionist control, and that is something I detest, but that is not a reason to hate an entire country.

To begin with, the French politician made the suggestion about returning the Statue of Liberty in a joking manner. There was no need for a rude response. Perhaps the press secretary could have chosen more diplomatic language to address the comment. While her point regarding American contributions in the war is valid, it is equally important to acknowledge the significant role that France played in securing American independence during the Revolution.

Tipping the scales in favor of the colonists in several ways:

Military Support: France provided troops, naval forces, and military leadership to the American cause. Notably, the French army, commanded by the Marquis de Lafayette and General Rochambeau, played a vital role in key battles, including the decisive Siege of Yorktown.

Naval Assistance: The French Navy disrupted British supply lines and blockades. Their victory in the Battle of Chesapeake in 1781 directly enabled the colonial forces to triumph at Yorktown, effectively ending the war.

Financial Aid: France supplied significant financial support, including loans and supplies like weapons, ammunition, and uniforms, without which the Continental Army would have struggled to sustain its fight.

Diplomatic Efforts: French diplomacy, led by figures like Benjamin Franklin and King Louis XVI's court, strengthened international recognition of the United States. France's alliance with the colonies also encouraged other European powers, such as Spain and the Dutch Republic, to lend their support.

The French contribution was indispensable in securing American independence, making them one of the revolution's most important allies. Their commitment to the American cause came at great cost, both financially and politically, but it ultimately shifted the balance of power in the conflict.

I can't fathom the level of ignorance it takes to spread such nonsense—or to actually believe it. 😂

First off, it's hilarious. To make the tweet seem legitimate, it includes a picture of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, even though the account has no connection to him. It also features an image of the new FBI Director, once again attempting to falsely legitimize this absurd conspiracy.

That claim is false. Fact-checking sources have thoroughly debunked it. The claim originated from a Thai-language website in 2023, citing an unnamed Ukrainian official, but no credible evidence supports it. It has been flagged as misinformation and is part of a pattern of false narratives spreading online.

This Thai website was the origin of the 2023 conspiracy and the source of MAGA-related misinformation. Source

Give me a couple of days. Haven't time at the moment.

BTW, haven't forgotten your reply to me. Perhaps I should have elaborated a bit. In addition to being an engineer by training, I hold degrees in Supply Chain Management as well as two graduate degrees. One happens to be in Accounting. I don't practice, I'm just good with numbers and budgets.

I also have a small RE venture. Several rental properties and some raw land parcels currently in early stages of development.
Wow, that's truly impressive! You’ve achieved so much—not only in your education but also in building a diverse and thriving set of ventures. You are truly living the American dream, and I admire your journey.

Coincidentally, one of the realtors I work with has been encouraging me to explore investing in raw land parcels as well. I live in Washington, one of the most prosperous states, and my district is a rural area. In other words, there’s plenty of undeveloped land available with great potential for development.

Congratulations on all your achievements, and I hope your endeavors continue to flourish.
 
Exactly how I feel.

But don't worry. I'm not a KKK-type like one of the other Americans here.
I would point out that such sweeping generalizations are not only inaccurate but also harmful to constructive dialogue. Mental illness is a serious issue that affects individuals across all political affiliations, and using it as a political insult trivializes the struggles of those who face it. Furthermore, labeling an entire group of people based on their political beliefs only deepens the divide in our country. Sadly, I’ve also encountered Democrats who view Republicans in an equally negative light.

This level of partisanship is disheartening and detrimental to the unity of our nation. I genuinely believe that most Americans, regardless of their political beliefs, are good people who want the best for their country. Instead of focusing on what divides us, we should strive to find common ground and engage in respectful discussions that foster understanding and cooperation.

There are areas where Democrats and Republicans share common ground. For example, a majority of Americans across party lines support infrastructure improvements, such as repairing roads and bridges, and expanding broadband access. Similarly, there is bipartisan agreement on the need for criminal justice reform. Another area of consensus is the importance of addressing the opioid crisis, with both parties advocating for increased funding for treatment and prevention programs.

These are just a few examples where Democrats and Republicans share common ground, and there are undoubtedly many more areas where shared interests can bring us together.
 
The facts cannot be disputed. Eric Swalwell has been compromised by a Chinese honeypot. Further, like Adam Schiff, he is a proven liar.
By focusing on the messenger rather than the message again, you're actually proving the point I raised earlier. It’s unfortunate we couldn’t engage more meaningfully on the substance of the discussion.

Cheers!
