What's on your mind ?

Actually studies do show that vaping is a method of getting people off the addiction of cigarettes, and there is some positive studies it is working....

The bigger issue is sexing up the product and getting the younger generation addicted, and we are talking about kids that never smoked....

The proof of that is the selection of the flavors sold etc... The same the studies of the deaths shown people were mixing/blending THC oil products and vaping

oils as well....

I do also think that everyone is entitled to there opinion on tobacco or anything deemed to be bad for your health, but that is choice of an individual if they choose to do it or not..

Just Thinking.....

You know i go to many different media outlets be it news, twitter etc... And i laugh while i read all the comments be it positive and negative about Trump....

Now lets go back to the Apprentice and how many millions of people tuned in to watch the show every single week LOL!!!, and i like to get a count of all the

haters who watched it LOL!!!..I mean the ratings prove that people were watching it!! I mean Trump still has lip prints on his ass from NBC for the cash

they made off of his show!!!!

Now they want him hung in Times Square LOL!!!

It is too bad that i don't post on anywhere but here, because that would be a good thing to post on all these sites, to call out all of these hypocrites hating

on the guy LOL!!!...

Again that is where i say the truth is, no matter who the fuck is the figure head of the Republican party, half of America just doesn't like it, and vise versa on

the Democrats....

Now really if you go back in time, the roles were reversed in the parties. The Democratic party was the worst racists, on the planet!!, and the Republicans

were more neutral...

I really think it always goes back to what i have said from the beginning, party name means shit today!!, you really do have to read the agenda/policies

every party has....

Still it is funny how getting the supposed most prestigious job on the planet, puts a bullseye on you, regardless if you do right or wrong:)

Really you are better off being the owner of Microsoft then being the President of the United States....

Reprinting this with the permission of it's author: Me.


I plead pure-heartedConservative - MY definition; I don't care what yours is.

I'm gonna take a swing at this, one time only.

I was not sanguine about Trump, not at all, from the outset - my conclusion was, "well, he's finally going to try it", then I dismissed him.

As a political animal, I was willing to speculate, however - full admission, here; my little sister knows him well - she's worked with him and occasionally for him.

The last time was as a disinterested party when he decided to sue a journalist who had the temerity to say Trump wasn't a billionaire.

Anyway- she had informed me she thought he was a bit of a pig, and she had decided she no longer wanted to deal with him, and so did not.

Leap forward to 2016:

Her opinion had not changed, but even knowing him as she did, she voted for him over Hillary, whom she does NOT know.

Anyway, after a few debates, I concluded - though there were enough bodies on the stage to fully-staff an executive and cabinet - the boredom and despair had commenced.

Trump stuck out like a sore thumb, of course - ignorant, ineloquent...and the media LOVED him - couldn't get enough of him.

Of the rest, no one stuck out except Carly Fiorina (who had been deprived of her gender as a Republican).

All the usual suspects (Bush/Kasich, etc.) sucked.

Meanwhile we all got our fill of Trump.

Polls (which have been rightfully pounded for several election cycles) had been trying to compensate by polling for EVERYTHING...but not - interestingly - for Democrat fence-jumpers who couldn't stomach HRC.

This, I figured, was because the powers-that-be knew many would find her unpalatable, and realized they needed to get as much air under her skirts as they could.

The entirety of election season, no such data was sought.

In the meantime, Trump began playing a chord no one had heard, previously.

This was signaled faintly by the media's picking at him - it was apparent (to me, at any rate) that, on the off-chance he was elected, the media would soon become highly disenchanted with him and his antics.

I began to pay attention.

Long story short, I decided that, as Trump had not lived a life of reputational hygiene, and the media would pre-occupy itself with 'Trump stories", the end-result could be very interesting.

The analogy I developed was Trump 'upsetting the apple-cart'.

It goes up on two wheels, apples begin tumbling, but apart from general upset, nothing really happens until the cart hits the ground - this is what we're currently seeing.

So-

He gets elected, and the Show commences.

I continue to bemoan his rhetorical clumsiness and seeming general ignorance, but he's a master of timing, and he really DOES have an idea where he wants this country to go, which is UP.

Of course, if he'd listen to ME, he'd be much more popular and admired - goes without saying.

He's not what we're used-to, but it IS "the economy, stupid", certain conventions will die (as they should), and the media will just have to get sorted before it cannibalizes itself.

I'm along for the ride, as we all are - he will not be impeached, and I'm pretty damned sure he's going to emerge from this current upset unscathed.

Prior to the election, it was apparent every crystal ball in existence was defective...I found some tea leaves, however, and I read them regularly.

I am not inclined off-hand to share, as people tend to get upset at my surety about certain things, but frankly, after the last election, I found my self wondering if the Left was just over-confident or desperate.

It's the latter.

There's more, of course, but...`

Did your sister work with him in the Business sector?? Or just when he announced and campaign??

Unbelievable!!!, honestly i never pegged you as an American!!

Great article, but as i said the far left and the far right are not as big as the media make them, it is the people in the middle that voted him in....

Now the question really?? If the DNC in 2016 wasn't rigged do you think Sanders would have won?? And after i rinse my mouth out from the bit of throw

up, i have thinking if he did!! I am not sure who would have been worse Sanders or Clinton??

Funny when you say the media loved him, i assume you mean in a negative way or better yet knew they despised him but made every news media outlet

skyrocket in ratings no matter if they were for him or against him:lol:.....

What also really amazes me is i would have to say that pretty much every Republican politician despised Trump, but seeing what he did they now respect

him!!!!...That just showed in the retarded farce Impeachment investigation vote LOL!!!!

"I continue to bemoan his rhetorical clumsiness and seeming general ignorance, but he's a master of timing, and he really DOES have an idea where he

wants this country to go, which is UP."

Just reading that sentence, i really don't understand why people can't see that?? Anyone saying they are a Conservative opens up a very broad spectrum

of thinking yet if you are so extremely Left, that is not going to change there minds, hens when 2020 comes, it will be very interesting on everyone up for

election.....

To finish.... In my opinion, This impeachment crap is going to backfire on the Democrat party.. Pelosi fucked up and she knows it!!!

She is a shrewd smart woman but she got caught and pushed into a corner!!! How she gets out of this i have no idea???

My sister has worked for his retainers as well as those who've opposed him.

She first experienced him during the Empire State building/Leona Helmsley thing, which began 25-odd years ago, if memory serves.

There're several stories there...

Hillary would have been even worse than Bernie, though both of them want to erase America.

Huh? I say, what you talkin 'bout,Willis?

Thank G-D it didn't happen, and funny they worry about Trump, if they ever did remove him, do they really think Pence is better?? There is no Moderate

connected to him;)...

The other thing i don't understand is even know the US is divided big time, who ever did vote for the Republicans are not disappointed, they are coming

through with all of there policies/agenda they said on there campaign, and he is improving the lives of people that didn't even vote for him?? That is why i

say you watch the media an if they dislike Trump or the Republican party, they don't report anything positive!!!. That's why i don't believe any of the poles

either, the Republicans got in big time!!, the polling was

full of shit!!!.. Now you take the takeover of the House, that happened because of that Russian hoax shit!! And false promises Now all of that is done and

the Democrats are not doing shit!!

I really think the people are sick and tired of listening to the lies against Trump.. And it is those middle Moderate voters that will make the difference...

Now we wait for the Horowitz and Durham's report.. Fuck all will happen probably but it will give American voters something to think about;)

Again just my opinion....

Edit: UFC update... So far 2 big knockouts!!! and no visual of Trump, but Dana mentioned he was excited he was coming to see the fights.....

You guys don't seem to get the gist of The Deceleration of Independence. Guess because there's no mention of money in it.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

That is the purest vision of America, not the fucking stock market and a bunch of corrupt pseudo-nobility.

PS Not a hoax. The Russians did inference in the election to benefit Trump. There was also a willingness on the Trump side to accept this "aid".

The Dems btw have sent dozens bills to the Senate all to be killed by one sort of a man. Mitch McConnell. Maybe they weren't good bills but cuntface wouldn't even allow them to be voted on. Democracy, not. If you want to blame anyone for lack of action blame him.

As for the media, I suppose they have this problem of having eyes and ears and functioning brains.
