Would you have expected that someone with his dearth of moral and ethical character (along with any shred of intelligence) be celebrated at any point in the history of this board? Trump's GOP has so thoroughly poisoned the well that Ser Scot is swearing these days. Imagine what Yags would have to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Week -- Donald seems like a good guy to me Uncle Joe fits your description better, though. Yet, with the recent Democrat success, and the potential to maintain the Senate, there's a good chance to see them maintain power. I'm not actively against them (or for them). They might achieve great things. I'm looking forward to it -- success or failure, it's all good. On Ser Scot, Yagathai, et al., I'm actually fascinated by their positions. And it's not just these two boarders. Many of my former colleagues -- field-grade US Army officers, and my seniors, the general officers -- kind of abandoned the greatest President in modern history, too; and played a small role in costing Trump a second term. It will make the next election that much more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know enough about what Ilhan Omar has or has not done within the community but this guy ain't it. Unless he's repented and seriously turned over a new leaf. Even so. Not sure what you want me to say here. From the article former Police Chief Harteau is a family friend, former Mayor R.T. Rybak is someone I've strongly supported in the past and former Mayor Betsy Hodges was always very good to me whenever I had to work with her. I don't have any experience with Samuels, but he seems like a good guy and I'm not too concerned with a position he took 20 years ago given my hometown(ish) was still called Murderapolis in some areas. I am in no way saying Samuels is perfect (also, he's not pictured above), but I maintain that Omar is a fundamentally bad MoC based off my narrow set of criteria. Like the much hated Sinema here she doesn't do public events, she avoids any media that's even remotely critical and she's 100% the type that when working in a small group if it fails acts like it's not her fault and if it works claims all the credit despite probably not doing very much. She's facing a strong challenge for a reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you believe that his January 6th insurrection that left dead and injured police, stolen and damaged government property was justified. In that case, you'd fit in at the recent CPAC where they had the banner "We are all domestic terrorists" -- it's refreshing for them to admit it.

Ran -- I wouldn't work or do business with him -- many of my old colleagues, with the highest sense of integrity and morality I've ever come across, abandoned him. I know Donald's character, but it's not nearly as bad as some truly evil people I've come across. For me, he's best at shaking things up, though, and he has unfinished business. I want him on the (political) front lines. 2024! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will make the next election that much more interesting. On potential social fracture in the future, I can say with confidence the US Army officer corps would not support the right wing. Although they may be 51% of the population, the majority will maintain the bureaucracy or join the left-leaning 49% out of a sense of misguided loyalty to the establishment. I don't normally quote myself, but when I do ... it's important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
