That’s a decent poll number for Trump, especially considering it’s from Quinnipiac.

Jay Bratt, representing special counsel office, confirmed the “crime” began that day because as a former president, he was entitled to retain the documents. Cannon again asked for historical precedent as to when a former president or vice president faced charges for similar conduct. Bratt of course said there is none. She added “vice president” on numerous occasions for a reason–Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden, and Mike Pence all skated on criminal charges. Trump is the only one who has not. Cannon: “Arbitrary enforcement…is featuring in this case.” Cannon also addressed the “foreseeability” as to Trump’s awareness he was committing a crime by keeping classified/national defense information. “Given the constellation of what happened before”–meaning no criminal prosecution of former presidents including Bill Clinton and Ronald Reagan and vice presidents–Cannon suggested Trump could have reasonably expected he was in the clear.

Vance would make a great VP pick, except his voice would be a loss for common sense in the Senate.
The document trial in FL has appearances of being dismissed, as it should be. Then, it’s expected Judge McAffee in GA is expected to render a decision in the Willis case. With the substantial evidence against her, she should get the hook from further prosecuting the case and be disbarred for unethical behavior.

If RFK wants a nutter on the ticket (since e’s halfway there anyhow), but one who can potentially make an impact, he should go for Ventura.

The VP position is more important to me this time around because of Trump’s age and the fact he can only serve one term.
I supported Vance for the senate (although he was like the 4th choice for me in the OH R primary) but I have since grown to dislike him for his vapid ignorant isolationist rhetoric,
He has evolved into some kind of Paulbot.

The Ukraine war cannot be compared to the significance of what was happening in WWII. The Russian/Ukrainian war still remains a conflict about invaded boundaries between two countries, and has shown no signs of metastasizing except in the speeches of those who want to continue aid to prop up this war indefinitely. Because of being distracted by this self-contained war we have allowed alliances to be formed with our enemies (Russia, China, N Korea, Iran), allowed other trade currencies to be used, have depleted our own armaments making us more vulnerable to our enemies, and have wounded our economy maybe beyond repair.
LikeLike
Also, if Johnson does cave and approve the funding package to Ukraine, with the slim margins he has to retain the House majority, his speakership will be over. It may be terminated anyway, as it will not take much for the Dems to take control - something they already seem to have done when it comes to establishing a firm policy of no funding for Ukraine without first closing the border (IOW stopping the uncontrolled flow of illegals into this country).

I’m not going to admit something I don’t believe we need to do, any further than what we’ve already done. Ukraine is faltering under the weight of not having enough men/women who voluntarily want to fight. That’s a big variable neither you nor Jason will factor into carrying on this war. Russia has far more people to draw into their military – thousands of reinforcements who probably don’t want to fight or die either.
I also do realize the futility of trying to leverage our own border security with sending more aid to Ukraine. However, that’s the only arm-twisting we have to slow down the invasion being experienced here. Plus, even though the savings may seem paltry it’s a start in dialing back spending money we are borrowing and paying interest on to the tune of a trillion dollars.
Finally, Zelenskyy will eventually be forced to make concessions in order to stop the concussion of daily warfare and citizens dying. This will be either by aid drying up or the Ukrainian people, themselves, rising up in mass and refusing to be his canon fodder anymore.

I don’t care how you want to distill what’s happening in Ukraine except to say it’s being led by a leader growing more authoritarian every day.
