Deploying unpaid National Guard troops to Blue cities is supposed to do what exactly? It's a bitch move made way too early. They are going to need the National Guard once retired people lose medicare and have to sell everything to pay medical bills.
A quick reminder that bands of untrained, poorly equipped, and suicidal poor people gave the entire US military the headache of the century.
And then they simply took back power when the US left.
True, though there is something to be said about 18 year old kids being drafted who never wanted to be there vs people who voluntarily enlisted making it a career
Nobody was drafted for either of the wars in the middle east…
what happened to small government not involving itself with states. i thought that was supposed to be a pillar of supposed “conservatives” that support this tragedy of a government
Republicans are not conservatives anymore, they embraced fascism, and fascists don't care about rules. They only care about power, the kind that allows them to bully everyone into submission.
Conservatism is just watered down fascism. Always was, always will be. The difference is that conservatives worship pre-existing power while fascists seek their own power to worship.

(That’s literally what conservatism is)
It's all about team sports and triggering the libs. They don't even know what the word "hypocracy" means.
"hypocrisy"
Big government is when Republicans arent in control.
Big government is when it gets in their way to power.
So a standing domestic army occupying a domestic city during times of peace. That's blatantly illegal. Unfortunately who's going to stop him.
If every military / police said to Trump: go fuck yourself, we’re not doing this to our fellow countrymen, there wouldn’t be a problem.
Stop taking orders from chief bone spur, head of the raping young children battalion.
Remember that about a third of the country enthusiastically supports Trump and another third is either on the fence or noncommittal. He's not exactly lacking for ideologically compliant manpower.
Yeah he fucking looks like he's dying soon.
What dumb fucking goofball, he meets Putin face to face, gives him that bare naked palm to shake, then a week later he's like "Oh I feel sick I think I might be dying".
You dumb shit, of course you're dying, one of the toxic dicks you been licking secreted KGB venom you stupid dumb asshole.
"Awww I just wanted to kiss a KGB man, now my cankles are swelling with fluid and I lost a lot of weight."
Yeah bitch, you got poisoned!
Meanwhile the dems are all like "Did ya see Gavin Newsome say something, he's not like the other Democrats!"
....shiiiiiiiiieet.
But why would Putin poison him when he’s doing everything Putin wants.
They have no clue what they’re on about. Just disregard it as nonsense.
My amateur read would be that Trump is far more useful to Russia alive as the credulous creature he is than dead. Letting Vance carry on the MAGA legacy would be risky for Putin's ambitions, so long as Trump is handily disrupting any hope of Ukrainian self determination, why rock the boat?
Maybe they've been fighting, seems like that's what's being said. Trump slowly realizing he's being lied to. Better a stable person than someone who might actually nuke if he gets cranky enough (the big baby). Also, Russia probably just wants the flex - I think autocrats see the revolving door of democracies as a weakness.
Hell, maybe Putin saw the stealth bomber got paranoid and got "the guy" to slap that shit into his hand just incase.
All I know is that you meet that guy, you wash your hands straight away.
You don't shake his hand in the first place. Why would you shake a war criminal's hand?
are you sure it's not spelled sheeeeeeeiit?
excuse me bussygyatt, why did you name yourself that
It’s German pronunciation
Now, about that Epstein list, and all the children you've raped...
So that's the next city on the hit list
