U.S. Presidential Primaries 2024!

[Josh]

Haley’s positions on paper are almost indistinguishable from Trump. Her actual domestic positions* likely would not qualify as even centrist or moderate. Her “moderate” label is derived solely from her acceptance of the 2020 election results and not actively swearing vengeance on anyone who is not loyal to her.
 

*Edit: her foreign policy has tangible differences, especially with regard to Ukraine and NATO.

Then why is Tim Pool of all people so hard on her?

In case any one is interested I started a new thread on the U.S. 2024 elections for President, Senate and U.S. House of representatives.

There is an internal battle amongst the DNC and NH Dems as to where the first of primary should be, and NH fucked around and found out. There is a Dem Iowa caucus, but it isn’t until Super Tuesday. None of that has anything to do with Biden backing out, since it is too late for anyone to get on the ballots in most states. So your post above is coming from a place of ignorance in the selection process and watching too many conspiracy fueled right wing media outlets. Biden is the candidate unless he drops out for health reasons or drops dead, and if that happens the Dem convention almost certainly picks Kamala.

The above was in response to this…

Normandy AND faced down communism. What happened in 1947? The west started to face down Communism. I know you like the Bolshie stuff, but do keep up with the timeline. 



She's slavic, she probably has a better sense of how bad communism is than you do. You have the lite version without the larger secret police.

What is hard to understand when you read National Socialism?

Interesting.  An Englishman having difficulty distinguishing between the verb "to be" and the conjunction "and".

Yes, as a daughter of the pretty decently ranked communist party member, traveling every year abroad (Italy, Austria, Greece etc), she has really, really discovered how bad was a communism.  

As for accusation of her being dumb, she did manage to enroll in the Faculty of architecture and civil engineering in Ljubljana, something actually dumb people stood no chance in hell of achieving back then (entrance exam was mathematics and physics, at pretty high level of knowledge required).

well, if the children of rich capitalists can tell us how bad capitalism is and how good communism is… then the reverse is also true.

It is still BS.

Who are you two talking about?  It can't possibly be Kimberly Guilfoyle.

In 1945, my Grandfather did a forced march in the snow from Poland to Austria, just to avoid ended up being liberated by those same Communists. So thanks very much all the same, I think you will find im fairly well acquainted with the historical record.

Would you be giving Biden or any other Democrat the benefit of the doubt over such a huge gaff? No, of course not. A Republican right now can make any distortion of history they like, it really doesnt matter, as long as they defend Donald Trump, they can do no wrong.

There was no gaff, aside from the one the guy on X used to hook and boat knee-jerk gullibles such as yourself.

The AND is quite clear to those without addled minds. Seriously dude, you are beclowning yourself.

Imagine if he was Free Polish forces. How were THEY treated after the war? Since you brought up the war. How were they treated EARLY in the war by the Soviets? Katyn Forest?

It's not like Trump introduced someone as Putin OR his VP is Biden. 

Also AND implies multiple activities if you understand english. So it's not a gaff. It's perhaps unclear. But as I noted, Americans stood against Communism. Those same communists that STARTED WWII by invading Poland, the UK's ally in 1939, if you remember.

The Cold war is NOT a distortion of History.
