There is no hope for the "bad orange man, mean tweets" people. You just aren't going to convince them ever even if Trump sang praises of Nikki as a wonderful person but just wrong on her vision and proposed policies. To these numbskulls it's a beauty pageant. That is how they vote. The best bet is for people to come to the conclusion that life under Trump was way better than under the Democraps. But then again, so many vote based on who is going to give them more free shit. Sadly just way too many sheeple fat, dumb and happy to be plugged into The Matrix.
You think them hating Trump is bad, wait till Jesus comes back...haha

I agree. Sometimes he just needs to TONE IT THE F**K down. Yes, they attack him for stupid shit...but that doesn't mean he has to stoop to their level.

A 'unifier' you say? Hell yes, we need one BADLY!
With all due respect, while I get that and in “normal times” would wholeheartedly agree, I’m not so sure that works now.

These aren’t “normal” times. Logic, reason, extending olive branches to ones political adversaries and kumbyya only works when both parties are good, reasonable, honest, men with opposing views.

We’re currently watching a slow motion train wreck of a very real movement to quite literally destroy this country and reshape the world with a dark globalist agenda that will not stop or respond in kind to olive branches.

Evil exists. You can’t reason with it, negotiate with it, appease it, or capitulate.

While none of us would have imagined we’d see this in our lifetimes, here we are.

Its a waste to go after any of the democrat votes. Haley supporters for example said they would vote for Biden if Trump is on the ballot. So no amount of nice things Trump says is going to win them over.
Also Nikki can call Trump old, question is cognitive abilities but Trump can't hit back?

Independent and moderates will have to vote Trump just because of the border and economy. They will know once they themselves spot the illegals in their neighborhood and they won't have a choice.

I get all of that...ALL OF IT. But still, be the bigger man, woman, person, etc. Sorry, can't buy into some of the needless insults that spews from his mouth at times. Again, just because you can, doesn't mean you should or have to.

We will always disagree on this. There are other ways to fight 'evil'.

We don’t disagree. Trumps childish, narcissistic behavior is at times appalling. But I do believe his heart is in the right place and we’re out of options.

It was always true. They just have good lawyers and lots of corrupt politicians and corrupt judges in their side.


interesting this was quickly deleted. There are or were, a number of posts about this last night. I watched the video. Powerful people don’t want it to be brought up again…

A voting systems expert testifying in a Georgia trial last week demonstrated that Dominion Voting Systems machines were so easily hackable he could use a Bic pen and smart card to copy, edit, and change votes in seconds.

I guess this is just normal every day behaviour for congress? It's awesome how you can get rich off that congressional salary with inside information. Pelosi is probably in on this too, or maybe they are just smart traders. I don't keep up with the stock market enough to say.

Europe's Top Border Guard Calls For Open Borders
Europe's Top Border Guard Calls For Open Borders | ZeroHedge

The new leader of Frontex, the European Union agency tasked with securing borders, has called for open borders and vowed to appease left-wing pro-mass migration activists.



Well, this is awkward.
Hans Leijtens, who is set to take on the role from March 1st, gave a press conference in which he asserted that Frontex border guards will not take place in any “pushback” of illegal immigrants.
In a separate interview with Welt am Sonntag, Leijtens also expressed a view that should be completely anathema to the head of a border agency.
NEW - Europe's top border guard, Frontex chief Hans Leijtens, says "nothing can stop people from crossing a border" and advocates for more "openness towards migrants." pic.twitter.com/JrsPtyhp4Q

“Nothing can stop people from crossing a border, no wall, no fence, no sea, no river,” said Leijtens, which is a bizarre statement given that’s his one job.
The Frontex chief is essentially admitting that his role is to oversee the total elimination of European borders while pretending to secure them.
The phrase, “The purpose of a system is what it does” has never been more apt.
Leijtens also extended an olive branch to human rights organizations and NGOs that have been complicit in pushing open borders and in some cases work hand in hand with criminal people smugglers.
Congratulations to Hans Leijtens @lgenLeijtens today appointed new @Frontex executive director.

My thanks to @KalnajaAija for her excellent leadership during a difficult period.

We are committed to continue improving Frontex governance, to best protect the EU external border. pic.twitter.com/riO0Qsd0Lb

The new head promised more transparency and said he was “not the type of director who will build a fence around Frontex…I want to open the doors,” indicating he would listen to any concerns highlighted by left-wing activists about Frontex operations.

As we document in the video below, given the rise in success of AfD, the German government has been forced to make moves to tighten border controls, following in the footsteps of Sweden and Denmark.

However, given that the man in charge of the entire European Union border policy is essentially a left-wing open borders activist, they may run into some difficulties.
