    Whatever happened to, “If I were President, the war would never have happened”

    Or is that just a talking point he made up.

      Nothing coming out of Trump’s mouth has any value or truth whatsoever, and it never has. Pointing out his hypocrisy is a waste of breath.

      No no that’s Russia and Ukraine, which is Biden’s fault.

      This is Iran, which is also Biden’s fault.

        It’s amazing that with how much power that he has that he wasn’t able to rig an election.

      What, the most mentally stable and thoughtful US president ever is lying??? That would never happen. Daily

      For 9-10 years now?

      My condolences to the people living in the dystopia everyone else saw coming.

        I feel less and less sad for people in the USA as time goes on because of exactly what you say. How did they not see it coming? HOOOOOW? And how did a third push for it, a third sorta try to help, and the other third maybe or maybe not just still doesn’t even know what’s happening?

          At the time of the election I lived in Utah, for those who don’t know Utah is a heavily republican state. Outside SLC county, the state is majority conservative. My family voted for Harris, but honestly there was never a chance Utah as a state would go blue since the 1970s. In the end, for those that live outside the swing states (the purple states that decide elections) there is little chance of influencing the election. I’m both trans and bisexual, I fear for the state of this country. I didn’t want this :/ I’m on Medicare and Medicaid and the budget bill would stop my access to gender-affirming care. I wouldn’t be able to be on HRT, and I would probably have to live without the surgery I’ve wanted for so long.

            There are 1.765 million registered voters in Utah. Trump got 883k votes. Kamala could have carried the state by nearly 200k people if they bothered to vote.

            Unlikely, but still possible. If people in deep red states decided it was worth it to still got out and vote blue, even if they were going to lose.
