I just finished watching a movie with Steven Crowder in it. It's a Christian style movie called "To Save A Life". In it he plays the bad guy jock. Not a major player in the movie but the friend of the main character. The movie was released in 2010.
High school student is falsely accused of sending racist messages
Avery Severson, a sophomore at White Bear Lake High School near St. Paul, was falsely accused of sending the racist direct messages to classmate Precious Boahen and other black students.
Maybe I don't have a crystal ball to see what "could" have happened. But I sure am seeing what IS happening.
Are you familiar with the Serbian Election of 2000?
Back to the US; he had popular support of the people, and most of the military. He was misguided by a few Judases within his own circle, including Pence. I think he honestly believed Pence was going to question the fraudulent electoral votes. He had the power of laws and the Constitution on his side. I do think it would have been rough. They did not need a "total" martial law, just a few cities - and you know them (if you need me to name them I will), and I would add Washington DC, NYC, Chicago and LA to that rather short list. He needed to enact the EO already in place to shut down MSM and Big Tech before we lost all free speech and before the purpose of elections and the right to vote meant absolutely nothing like it does now. It needed to be done. There would have been a lot more bloodshed initially, short-term. The sacrifice would have been well worth it. He was making progress on the swamp. Maybe more than you think on "the inside" would have supported him. I believe there is more that just a small chance that we still would have had a Constitutional Republic that would not have had an inauguration attended only by National Guardsman, surrounded by fence and barbed wire. The "victorious" side got away with stealing not just an election, but enacted a coup of the United States of America. WAKE UP. Most of the country now IS under martial law "Idiot", or will be very shortly!! We have open borders with 60M per week just going into housing illegal kids. We have opened the country to new variants of their every so deadly "Not Chinese" virus and released the originating Country from all fiscal and legal responsibility. Iran just increased its production of enriched uranium while allowing military support from China. China has screwed HK & Taiwan. The Abraham accord is just about at a dead halt...shall I continue??
So, PLEASE do tell me just how much worse off we "could have been" than we are now? Please, I really really need to know.
My family lived through pre- and WWII Germany (well frankly, many, included my grandmother, didn't make it through), I understand history, and sir, I think YOU are the Idiot.
That sir, was an excellent analysis of the situation at hand. Fortunately, Israel doesn't give a flying F about xiden/harris and had the absolute biggest balls we've seen in a long time to have "sec def" actually in Israel to make sure they would play by the xiden book - then they go and unleash hell inside the Natanz facility....freaking brilliant play Benjamin, brilliant.
I myself thought Trump should have declared Martial Law. Still do. It was obvious the government was on the precipice of being overthrown by an illegal globalist regime and it was the last chance to fight to save it.
The Left likes to use the term "Common sense laws" to ban AR15's, Trump had every right to stay in office and common sense shows he had all the evidence he needed the election was stolen. He had a million man army gathered at Pennsylvania Ave willing to fight to save the country.
If Trump got threatened, which I'm sure he was just as old man Bush threatened Ross Perot's family, and scared out of the White House by this regime of criminals, than all is lost, we lost the country. He will never run again nor will anyone else with a real hope of winning.
Not arguing with anyone, thats just how I stand.

I am pretty sure that many see the same thing.
But again I will ask. What man has the balls to start down that path? Seriously? How many people did Trump have with him? Standing there to have his back should he have gone to the level you suggest? We know that the leadership of the military was purged under the kenyan and a majority of the officers have been through the state run indoctrination schooling. Like I said. Nancy pelosi already had been talking with the DOD and the DOJ as to how this would play out if Trump went there. The Pravda was already saying that Trump was deranged and at least half of the population believes that he's a Russian.
Carry on with the belief that doing what you fantasize would have been the thing to do. I am pretty sure that he believed that the SCOTUS was going to have his back. How's that working out?

CIA, FBI, DOJ, DOD ..... Go ahead and show which one has the Republic's best interest in mind
Nobody had/has Trump's back, at least not in government. That was proven in Jan. Not even his own VP. But he had a million + Patriots that made the trip to Washington to show that we had his back.
We know the situation. We know the odds and the treasonous Socialist Democrats, Republicans and SCOTUS were against him and are still against us. The situation was as dire as the group of bedraggled starving, freezing Patriots faced in 1776 against the most powerful military and empire in the world or the battle at San Jacinto between Houston's small army against the powerful Mexican army.
Houston sent people back to chop the bridge down that was the only escape route, trapping both armies on the battle ground. It was going to be a fight to the death cage match. We knew if we lost in either battle we would have suffered the same fate as Spartacus's army faced in Rome.
It was either drawing the line in the sand and stopping your enemy or kneeling without putting up any resistance and live under a socialist / communist regime that stole the election.
If we go with the attitude of the deck is too stacked against us, that Pelosi and military are too powerful than whats the point of the 2nd A? Whats the point of being armed?
As bad as a few would like to have seen Trump kick off the igloo. The time is not there yet. Nor do I believe that he is the person for the job. While you see headlines for the crapfest in certain cities there's a majority of civilized life still going on in the fly over.
They have printed money like perfume on a hooker. The time is coming when even the staunch progressive/liberal/Marxist or whatever will be hungry alongside many patriots suffering the same. Then and only then will you see the tide swing against the enemy. Currently they are dangling and few carrots and the populace is pulling the cart. (Professional sports, restaurants reopening and the promise of normal life). That's not going to last long. The Romans tried the same thing. Distraction while the cities burn?
The big question will be whether the people direct their anger at the cause, direct their energy into survival or succumb to the violence that's going to ensue.
lol. You guys realize that Trump was more aggressively pro-money printing not only than any President in history, but also more pro money printing than anybody in government while he was still President? It's almost hysterical to hear all of the caterwauling about this after four years reading tweet after tweet of how interest rates were too high. I mean, you guys realize that he was constantly calling for looser monetary policy, right?
Which republicans were standing against it? I am sure that you can scrounge up a couple votes where the republicans were lockstep against it. Where they used the media, the senate or any other tools to stop the spending.
You are definitely the retard. So drop the apparently.
Money supply isn't primarily determined by spending, retard. Money supply is primarily determined by loose or tight monetary policy. In other words, the policy of the Federal Reserve, which isn't influenceable by congress in any way. So every time Orange Donnie banged on about the Fed being too tight, and Powell keeping rates too high, what he was saying is that the Fed wasn't making the money press go brrrrrrrr fast enough through interest rate policy. Monetary policy is probably 50:1 more important for money supply than is fiscal policy. But maybe they didn't teach you this in clown school.

That's got to be fake news. No black guy would ever be caught doing this. It must have been a white supremacist. The cops got the wrong guy. They are so incompetent they can't even tell the difference between a white supremacist and a black guy just minding his own business.
So again you have no answer? Just as I figured.
You are the retard with all the answers, too funny
Again, federal reserve policy isn't a place where congress critters can be for or against anything. Traditionally, it isn't a place for Presidents either, other than nomination, but Trump consistently pressed and berated for lower, even negative, rates. Or in other words, he pressed for more money printing. That is your answer. You keep on going on about printing money being so bad, but the biggest proponent of printing money is your sad Orange God. Your problem is, just as with your other big question that I answered over and over, you don't like the answer.
Here you go, little man. Here is all of congress supporting Powell against the money printer in chief. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...airs-gets-backing-from-congress-idUSKCN1U5239
Now go on off and do the chores of your masters, the Democrat party. You certainly aren't their brightest slave, but they will take any fool they can get.
You are conflating fiscal and monetary policy. I believe the average deficit during the Trump years was higher than the Obama years, but not markedly so. However, fiscal policy, as important as it is, pales in importance to monetary policy when talking about "printing money," or the change in the money supply.
Look, I get where Trump was coming from. As a real estate business man, the game is that you are always heavy on leverage, and it only makes sense to prefer easy money when you are the borrower, as your nut is constantly decreasing in real value. He made as much clear in his comments. He wasn't shy in his belief that monetary expansion was a key tool for his economic program, especially necessary when seen in conjunction with rising tariffs. I don't necessarily think it is the wisest policy, as in government, unlike business, the off ramps for bad debt are a lot rockier, and they affect more people who were in the game against their wishes.
So my problem isn't with the printing of money, per se. As I have said in other threads, one major issue is that we are much less sure today about the effects of printing money than we were thirty years ago. My problem is with the galactic geniuses who think monetary expansion is both our road to doom, and something Biden is getting going, while they seemed to think that Trump's economic policies were good as gold, even though they were, without doubt, the most expansionary in history, especially in rhetoric. I just think people ought to understand what they are saying, and ought to care about being consistent about it.
Reading shit like that, just pisses me right the F off. WE knew about the shenanigans, but, when they are actually proven true, it just pisses you off more. I don't know when the top is going to blow off the top of the kettle, but, It will blow. Frog is squirming.

I haven’t read up into it as much as you. I just felt through my observations that Orange was spending on America while the before and after criminals appear to be trying to bleed Americans dry giving all our money away across the globe and to illegals.
I saw gas the cheapest it’s been since before Iraq while Orange was there. I see it still climbing now. And once again I’m in a gas producer state paying more for gas than other non producer states..
I don't disagree with any of what you just said. The spending priorities of the different administrations are wide, and I definitely prefer those of Trump. My guess is that gas prices are reflecting new policy initiatives rather than increased money supply, so in that, I am right there with you as well.
To put it simply, but give you everything you need to know, congress, with the executive branch, is the one who spends and borrows money, and institutes policy. Those actions have a great effect on many things. But the federal reserve, through making funds cheaper or more expensive to banks, easing various requirements etc, actually controls how much money is flowing through the system. It isn't completely separate from national debt, as national debt is one of the inputs the fed contends with, but the money supply itself is run through the banks, through the fed.
I'll agree Trump spent like a new lottery winner but I got something for my money.
I got a wall, I got a better military, if he had of done an infrastructure bill I would have actually got a bridge not a bunch of social welfare crap.
Thing is Congress makes the spending bills and Trump only signs it.
These retarded Covid bills are bullshit hand outs beyond our borders when the answer is open the economy.....give people their freedom back, stop the fear.
Under this tard we are just spending to transfer wealth from the American worker to the rest of the world.

For the millionth time, I am not talking about spending. Increases in the money supply are separate, but not unrelated to, spending. Money supply increases from changes in fed policy. Trump was extremely outspoken in his belief that monetary policy should be as loose as possible, even into negative rates. So he was very aggressively in favor of increasing the money supply -- printing money.
Nothing I have said pertains to spending. That is fiscal policy. Almost every response reinforces my understanding that the people here complaining about printing money have no idea how money gets printed. smdh.
What I do know is enough to make my blood boil.. starting with the private bank that is the “fed” and ending with my gov STEALING from me a poor to give to terrorists, murderers, and criminal law breakers.. all the while only arresting law abiding citizens and releasing criminals.
It is private in charter only. Whether it was a good idea at the time is certainly debatable. I'd probably say no, but the fed has certainly had its triumphs. It would certainly be impossible to unwind at this point, so the best we can hope is for wisdom and responsibility. Other than Yellen, who was awful, we have been pretty blessed starting with Volker.
The other stuff, the policy stuff, I agree with you completely.
You know things are getting worse by the lack of posts. When people get fuming mad, they shut up. Look for many of these threads to lose a good bit of participation.
I get your point about the Feds role and the Fed was a willing ally of Obamas.
Under Trump the Fed wanted to push rates higher as part of their own TDS.
Trump battling them about it was recognition you could see that was the case.
The Fed did everything it could do to make Obamas spending on bullshit possible.
Trump wants to build a wall and a military.......looks like we have to raise the rates.
The current rate setting is not a good thing. Bringing it to where it should be will shock the addicted low rate junkie.
It fuels the ability to buy the bullshit from Walmart we have been drunk on.
Seniors and fixed income get forced into the stock market because banks pay nothing for savings.
It's just more evidence our money is worth zero.
Since 2008 the money has been sucked from the low/middle class up into the pockets of the elites.
It is if you're a white supremacist.
Again, fake news. They planted evidence on that black man who was minding his own business. Only white guys commit crimes.
All the blacks behind bars are there because of the politicians that wrote the 1994 crime bill and shoved it through congress
This is unhinged. Rates generally stayed low during Obama because the economic recovery was sho shitty. As the recovery sped up, largely due to Trump's better policies, rates would naturally go up. That is why the fed started to raise. Every metric was telling them to do so. Trump wanted the money printing to continue. It had nothing to do with your unhinged belief that the Fed was trying to foil Trump.
Rate setting is difficult. Even really good metrics, like the Taylor rule, have been failures. Likely rates will have to rise to counter some effects of too much fiscal stimulus. But there is no evidence that our money is worth zero. There is a whole world of evidence, literally, telling you that it is not. Most of what you write here is the unhinged rantings of an unintelligible madman. It's all based in conflating reality and some bizarre list of human moral rules you think exists. Your immutable laws of human nature, lol.
No the problem was "Too big to fail"
The solution to prop up these big dumb businesses that made bad bets by taking from the taxpayer was the problem.
Obamas spending had nothing to do with helping us it was gifts to big business and his causes.
Guess it was a good investment seeing how willing business is to now support Commie causes.
Obama was the only thing holding the recovery back and that was by design.
Guess he didn't have the magic wand he accused Trump of having and apparently Trump did have such a magic wand.
What are you going on about now, my slow friend. I seems like you believe that all actions have to do with Trump Derangement or Pro Obama, or maybe Anti people. More likely, given how monetary policy has stuck pretty closely to theory, especially in the Bernanke (too big to fail) and Powell eras. Yellen was awful, but that was a blip in the timeframe. I have to say I have never seen somebody as convinced of wild conspiracies controlling the world than you are. You seriously should get help.
Ah of course, I should've realized.It is if you're a white supremacist.
Again, fake news. They planted evidence on that black man who was minding his own business. Only white guys commit crimes.

Not conspiracies, they have a plan, they are following it, Trump fucked it up momentarily, the primary planners will be dead in 4 years, the changes have to happen now so they can see their life's work come to fruition.
Dude, when you think about a cabal of people with a plan doing things in secret to the detriment of everybody else, you are literally talking about a conspiracy. You think the world is a conspiracy.

Chode, you think what you want, I will believe what my eyes and the evidence tell me.
Not buying your attitude or your views.
Read some of the latest Glenn Greenwald work. Is Project Veritas latest work conspiracy?
When you can’t walk into a hardware store and buy 2 2x4’s for a hours minimum wage any thinking person should not be able to deny paper money I’d about to be worthless.
When a judge tells you you cannot even arm yourself in your own house despite the fact you’ve committed no crime any thinking person should not be able to deny laws are about to be worthless.
When it became illegal to privately own gold way back in the 30’s at least people could choose to hide theirs.
How do you stop a thief from spending the money he already stole from you?
Why should I color between the lines when the gov continues to draw across every fresh page in my book when I open it?

If you meant is what Veritas uncovered at CNN a conspiracy, then yes. That something is a conspiracy doesn't mean it isn't true. Many conspiracies have been uncovered over history. But the grand one you are spinning is pretty out there, especially since most of the "evidence" for it ends up being bullshit.
Canada (ontario) just fucking locked down hard, **again**, literally empowering police to stop people if out in public and ask for their ID and reason for being. How the fuck can a government behave in such a way, 12+ months, after this pandemic started?
It looks like there is some resemblance of police in Canada is telling the gov to miss them with that bullshit:
