What are you talking about? I didn't use a sarcasm emoji.

Do you make up sh!t in your head that you think I posted and then respond to that like SG does? I have a cranial real estate empire going here.
I’m talking about you don’t get sarcasm :lol:

Then you ramble on like LZ
On and on like you were down in Jamaica
You're flailing. You set yourself up to be owned.

Your ripped me for using mocking nicknames for trump qabinet members (I was "crucifying whiskeyleaks and others with your demeaning and mean and insensitive Knicknames"?):
  • after you had previosly posted that those nicknames "are actually funny"
  • anyone who supports trump has no business ripping someone else for using "demeaning and mean and insensitive" nicknames. Dude has a Wiki page devoted to the nicknames he calls people.
You then compounded your mistake by calling Ganny - Granny - which could be perceived as a demeaning and mean and insensitive nickname.

A sitcom writer couldn't write it a self own any better.

Now you're probably going to claim that you did this intentionally.

I didn't expect that deflection.

And no DOG, I don't want to go to trump's ED birthday party. Maybe he can pray for you to fix that for him. :D

You should try admitting when you're wrong, it can be very freeing. You're wrong so frequently that it might be depressing for you though. I wouldn't want to harm your fragile psyche. :D

The irony of trump doing this while MAQA pushes the Exclusive Citizenship Act of 2025 to end dual citizenship. If Americans can only be citizens of 1 country, the President should only be President of 1 country. Hopefully trump chooses Venezuela. :D

I haven't heard about any go-fast boats being blown out of the water lately.

Did the cartels stop trying to move cocaine over the Caribbean?

Or were drugs never trump's real motive?

You're moving the goalposts.

You posted "The drug boats aren’t leaving anymore and I’m surprised that it took them so long to get it" as if they've completely stopped not that the shipments have slowed down.

If there are still shipments, why aren't we blowing them up?

Well, compared to the rate they were departing, one could say they’re not leaving anymore and any reasonable person would know what they’re saying

Why aren’t we blowing them up?

The Coast Guard has continued with their traditional law-enforcement actions in the Caribbean and the eastern Pacific, which does not include blowing them up. If they refuse to stop, the Coast Guard will use warning shots and disabling fire on the engines to stop it.

I would say they’re not blowing them up anymore because they have put a halt on the departures… for now, as soon as the Navy leaves, they will be back to business as usual

Price of drugs going up…. Less supply in Puerto Rico as shipments have been severely disrupted

These days, it seems like the hardest thing to come across in the United States of America is something that all of us can celebrate as unambiguous good news. Well, you would think the steady and substantial decrease in drug overdoses over the past two years would fit the bill.

Problem for our legacy media is how can they report this without giving any credit to Trump

Energy secretary says US won’t provide security for oil companies in Venezuela
Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Thursday the United States will not provide on-the-ground security to oil companies operating in Venezuela as part of efforts to revitalize the country’s energy industry.

“We are not going to get involved in providing on-the-ground security for people in Venezuela,” Wright said during an interview with Bloomberg Television.

Big Oil doesn’t share Trump’s dream of making Venezuelan oil great again
But industry sources tell CNN that American oil executives are unlikely to dive headfirst into Venezuela for multiple reasons: The situation on the ground remains very uncertain, Venezuela’s oil industry is in shambles and Caracas has a history of seizing US oil assets.

Perhaps the biggest problem is that oil prices are too low today to justify spending the gobs of money – possibly tens of billions of dollars – that would be required to revive Venezuela’s decaying oil industry.

“The appetite for jumping into Venezuela right now is pretty low. We have no idea what the government there will look like,” one well-placed industry source told CNN on Monday. “The president’s desire is different than the industry’s. And the White House would have known that if they had communicated with the industry prior to the operation on Saturday.”
Well that isn’t an issue at the moment.

So trump started a forever war to encuorage oil companies to invest in Venezuela? That's less believable then he started it to cover up the epstein files.

Now the price situation is too volatile.

How old was the Iraq Part Deux when it was 4 weeks old? How old was the Afghanistan War when it was 4 weeks old? Did either turn into a forever war?

But you keep but, but, but, deflecting away in your defense of all things trump no matter how many times he flip flops on his promises.

I’m not sure this is about strategy from the administration as it is about his desire to control and dominate. And there’s no brakes on that car.

Iran Part Deux will either be a forever war or trump will TACO and there will be a peace deal with no regime change. There will be no regime change without boots on the ground.

I presented you with a fact

You posted a but but but but but but but

You accuse me of doing what you do

But that’s ok because we don’t have a vaccine for TDS yet

By the way, Venezuela can eventually get back to their glory days now that an operation that didn’t even last a day removed him

Regime change will be up to the people of Iran

Trump gave 90% of the population of Iran an opportunity for change for the better … it might be brutal for a while, but those with a longer term outlook can see the potential benefits…

That 90% needs weapons and all of that doesn’t need to come from the United States
