Agree with what? If you fell for Q, or even thought possible, you weren’t thinking different. You failed an obvious intellectual question. Is this crap believable?

You seem to think that you've disagreed with the description by merely describing the differences of thought that you want to "dunk on"?

If you too need the self-affirmation of "dunking on" internet strangers, then by all means, get what little life affirmation you can squeeze from it. Like I said, it's a horribly humiliating admission to make, but you do you.







"Dunk on..." lol I still get a good laugh out of that.

The president has very little effect on the long term effect on stock market. Sure they can make a speech that will encourage a spike or dip on occasion but overall those affects are blips. Post WWII the market has done slightly better under Dems but its marginal. There is a reason no other President has tried to define his success by tying it to the stock market. Bill Clinton had the best return during his presidency in that time span.

True.
Now Trump did have the economy rolling, which makes his ability to pull out a defeat even more remarkable, but it wasn't sustainable.

An economy based on tax cuts that fall short of the revenue needed to fund your spending, are impossible to maintain. You can try to drag it out like Reagan managed to, but then H.W. Bush had to pay the piper. That was probably Trump's plan, it's not used often in case another Republican wins but Trump has never shown any sign of concern for fellow R's, so probably was.

The other 2 possibilities. Drastically cut spending including social programs = economy tanks.

2. Let budget/deficit hit the 77% mark, dollar loses value = economy tanks.
But it brings a lot of popularity until the bill comes due.

I can't recall anybody from ME while I was in the Army. I did live in Bangor for a couple of years a long time ago when Dow was an AF base. It was mostly SAC - B-52s and tankers. My dad flew F101Bs - there was one Air Defense squadron there amongst all the SAC people.

No where did I comment or speak on the dunking on. I merely pointed out why people will view Q folks with a side eye. It’s not dunking. It’s stating the obvious. You fell for internet lies that most saw as lies. Now you want your opinion taken seriously? Maybe you should pause and reevaluate how you absorb information.

Michigan Supreme Court Recommends Independent Audit Due to 'Troubling and Serious Allegations of Voter Fraud' - Media Right News

I'm not sure if this is all part of the same case, but this article indicates that the cited statements are part of a concurring or dissenting opinion and not part of the actual court order. I'm probably not going to research further because it's late. I could be wrong.

2 Mich. Supreme Court justices urge looking into election fraud claims

Maybe you should have started by asking my opinion of Q instead of trying to tell me what I thought of it.

It was the "dunking on" post that you defended, so...

And I couldn't care less what you think of my opinion. You're the second person tonight that posted at me uninvited and then acted like I'm the one that cares about your opinion. lol

Get over yourself.

Used to have Loring AFB till the big shutdowns. Had a large Navy presence before cutbacks too but there is still a presence. Not aware of any significant Army presence

In the late 60s the AF had Presque Isle, Loring, and Dow (that I remember); and the Navy had Brunswick NAS and the big submarine base - Portsmouth which is NH, but all the Navy stuff seemed to be across the river in Kittery, ME.

I thought the NAS closed. Used to support a squadron based there that got consolidated to JAX. Maybe just that element was moved don’t know.

Back in the day Loring AFB was a SAC base and my dad was stationed there ‘68-70

We were at Dow AFB - Bangor something like 59-61. Cold! Didn't remember you were a military brat, too.

Forgot about Dow. Not sure I ever knew about Presque Isle.

You remember how the SAC bases had the big "Peace is Our Profession" signs at the main gate - with a B-52 on the sign? The 75th FIS at Dow was one of the original Flying Tiger squadrons and used a tiger shark for the logo. One morning Dow woke up to a big 75th logo pointed right at the B-52. It didn't go over well at all.

I hope we don’t have to find out. Some of my ancestors died because they allowed their guns to be taken away. I see no circumstances where I give up mine while breathing

You could put a little addendum on your "Come and Take It" banner.

PS: We ran out of shot, so we substituted silverware, etc. Prepare to be forked.

No, we haven't. Some people put their interests first, but they don't put the nation's interests first. Had they put the nation's interests above their own, our industry wouldn't be in China.

Depends on how you look at it. Industries in China keeps prices affordable. Most corporations have always put profits first.
