those who hate trump believe that it is morally justifiable to use literally any means necessary to keep him from the white house.

leave that any club available to slam from in the skull must be used there in the same camp as mary trump from snake.
No know I never heard of five years ago, but who is now made a nice river herself bashing her uncle fabulously today from the colorado supreme court who ruled that donald trump? Yes, Donald trump, the insurrectionists anti american anti democratic fascist? Who, for some is our reason is leading the republican nominating contest by fifty points, or something is not eligible to be on the ballot for the republic in primary in that state. This is amazing news. Yes, it's going to go to the united states supreme court by it.
they are able to read english. They should concur with this decision. Miss legal scholar who is a psychologist by the way has her legal thought. Joe Biden is format
all of this, by supporting the rationale behind the colorado bands. Yesterday, he was asked
the colorado states supreme court ruling, and he said that from was
only an insurrectionists inaction, presumably bar him from the ballot
so for self evident saw. It also applies to coordinate, certainly, support, insurrection, no question about non zero, zero question,
as our doddering old president? No wonder republicans are up in arms. If democrats are
to claim that the law can be used as a club and several times
his leave, their law abiding citizens merely following the law from fans are. Similarly,
any club at hand. That's right from France are increasingly cheering his applause line about temporary dictatorship. Harrison
stands, for example,
They can't say that he's war there
you are saying that he's coming after his political opponents, but literally that's exactly everything. They're, accusing this man of doing is literally what has been going on for the last. That's why I have no problem with day one dictator. That's why I have no problem with that. If a dictator means he's going to drill baby drill, asami of that dick
anywhere. Ok. So again, the idea is,
trumps language rat dictatorship in all the rest of it, by what you really means just using executive authority. In the same way that Biden and obama used executive authority,
people say that sort of thing reason. They're saying it is specifically because Democrats claim that they are pro democracy at the same time they seek to thwart it in a variety of ways and of democrats. True,
we seek to barred from from the ballot across the country. Republicans will presumably do the same thing. To Democrats here is texas, lieutenant governor, damn patrick arizona, try
this about ten years ago, but our law is different. It simply says that our law enforcement can arrest. Anyone take them in due a background check photograph. Do fingerprints
if they saw them, cross the border illegally. We can do that
They happened to reveal in the arrest of that they across to illegally, and then the magistrate will send them back and will escort them
to the border and they have a choice, I go to jail or then go back, and if they go back
try to come back again and we arrest him again. The penalty gets even higher were fed up, in fact, so
what happened in colorado tonight law makes me think except
we believe in democracy and taxes. Maybe we should go
Joe Biden off the ballot in texas for allowing eight million people to cross the border? Since he's been president,
again section three of the fourteenth amendment does suggest. If you take

answer is nothing very good: twenty twenty

the national polls donald trump is experiencing.
Presently a fairly significant bump after the colorado supreme court just did what it did,
going to waste. Can it be I bought from up nationally sick
these seven percent to eleven
then for defence in eleven percent, brayley so too,
the national about behind Donald trump
various states can see from continuing to lead fairly significantly. So in iowa latest fact, business Paul has trumped up at fifty. Two percent of scientists at eighteen
he hayley at sixteen. So, even if you combined both of their percentages, they would be at thirty four percent eighteen percent behind donald trump, so his
significant lead over in iowa,
sure is a bit of different story. According

one. Forty seven to forty six economist you gov has them tied at forty three morning. Console has trump up by two at forty four to forty. Two and again, this is how it works.
As from gets back in the headlines, the poles tend to tighten between trump and by mrs. Why anybody who is suggesting that it can be a runaway for trump? I want you the evidence
Let anybody who's suggesting that it can be a runaway for Biden. I don't see the evidence of that either. This thing could seriously go either way and a lot is dependent on the kansas

so Joe Biden, is gonna, try to run a basement strategy undecided.

And it increases exponentially the amount of ugliness in your society.
Anything that increases ugliness is evil and she's got what just on their shoulders

That is an amazing statement. Why
they are dollar store. Is the root of all evil? So, first of all I should point out at this:
according to some reports, eighty eight percent of american,
shop at dollar stores, at least occasionally my family shops
dollar store at least occasionally almost a third
Respondents in the twenty twenty one consumer report survey, so they shop
our stores of more than once a month
This is a really latest attitude. It seems like dollars
are good. You buy things for a dollar, or at least you did until Joe Biden took office and inflated the currency. Now it's like the five dollar store. It is good to have
products at your disposal for cheaper is a good thing
Why are we frowning upon this? It seems
a much much worse system exists and that produces no dollar stores, a system that
uses more expensive goods and services that force your family to pay more a system that

this is the way that worked in hungary for hundreds of years,
