The average gas price under Biden is around 3.33 dollars. Trump's average is now over 4 dollars.

A judge stopped the construction of a privately funded ballroom costing taxpayers zero
So let Congress do it it Big and beautiful.

That is a non-sequitur. The ballroom is not a necessary thing. If you can't get private donors, you can stop the project altogether.

The only person costing taxpayer is Trump.

bemeruca:
That's people with TDS. Only people with no work will oppose that

So you support using 1 billion dollars of tax payers' money for an unnecessary ballroom? A ballroom!!!!

Guy, you are lost in the Trump cult.

The average American can see that Trump does not care. The average American can see that people are struggling with fuel prices and inflation, but Trump wants to spend 1 billion dollars of tax payer money to build an unnecessary ballroom after lying that private donors will sponsor it.

cc Bemeruca, Tctrills, Basilico and other MAGA cultists,

Bemeruca, Tctrills, Basilico and other MAGA cultists,

How do you now support the Trump's fuel prices?

What is with this personal stuff being posted here?

tctrills:
I don't know the answers.
But I have actually seen people on the left shed tears on television because of Trump.
AMD Obama and now Biden are the only ex-présidents that continue to fight and criticise the incumbent.

Lol...crybaby Trump

tctrills:
She was driven by pain but, it's ok, most leftist are driven by pain.

Leftists driven by pain? Lol. Please explain these butthurt republican/right wing events.

1. Trump and right wingers being pained by Jimmy Kimmel's comment on Charlie Kirk that they tried to remove him.

2. Trump being pained by Jimmy Kimmel's Joke in 2026 and tried to deal with him.

3. Trump retaliating out of the pain that Letitia James disgraced him in court. He has carried Letitia to court, unsuccessfully.

4. Trump always ranting about Iran after Iran keeps frustrating him and dealing with his buddy Netanyahu.

5. Trump releasing a racist video of Obama


Your right wing leader has a thin skin and you are here talking about leftists acting from pain.

basilico:
The evidence I have seen makes it certain that Joe Biden never got 81 million votes .
I sometimes use fuzzy logic

Fuzzy logic is a mathematical approach to reasoning that deals with "degrees of truth" rather than the absolute "true or false" (1 or 0) found in traditional binary logic.

Going by your assertions,if they stole it from him, all is well and good He has been compensated

The constitution is silent on what should happen with the 2020 stolen election

Fuzzy logic?

You can't be this brain-dead.

Trump cannot have a 3rd term. Although, I would love to see him try because that would destroy the Republican party. Civil war things

basilico:
Let's think out of the box.

What if there is evidence that 2020 was rigged and Joe Biden never got more than 70 million.

What recompense is there for Trump in such a scenario?

Let's even assume that the brain-dead conspiracy is true- 2020 elections was rigged.....it would not still be relevant because Trump has had his 2 terms.

Furthermore, many courts cases and six years later, no credible evidence for the rigging of 202 elections has stuck.

Please stop being a shill for MAGA

basilico:
Why would anyone ask that. The constitution is very clear. They want to make it a huge deal.

The constitution is clear, yet, Republicans in charge of expressing the constitution cannot give a clear answer.

See masters of trolling, ragebait and propaganda

DeepSight:
Go and figure it out. You were the one who came up with 19%. Is the balance not 81%?
Look, enjoy yourself. Worever.

I cant teach you to think or to have self dignity.

Well said.

tctrills:
Do you even understand how data works.
South Africa is many time richer than central African republic yet many times more violent. Can you explain that with your economics argument.

I am dieing to see how you explain this simple one.

And religion is a huge part of culture just so you know

You are the one that doesn't understand data and statistics.

1. Compare poor to rich countries to see the variance. No, you chose to compare poor and poorer countries and you expect sense to come out of the data.

2. There is a second factor that you ignored- law enforcement. That can also explain the variance from poor to poorer countries. Not to also consider population size and type of crime....

3. I want to see the source of your data because you are a well known deceiver here.

4. Religion affects culture. It has an overlap with culture but it is still distinct from culture.

tctrills:
Cultures also arise from social factors and predictors so that's no point.

Deepsight and I have corrected you.

Culture is useless when identifying and creating a solution to sociological problems.

We look at the direct factors that influence and create such societal problems. And research has shown that poverty and law enforcement are the two major problems that influence crime.

tctrills:
Wrong.
Slavery was cultural, the culture shifted and it ended.
Today, Chicago spends billions on law enforcement and poverty. But that is not the solution.


Let's use Africa as case study.

Here are the 10 top countries by violent crime index in Africa.

South Africa
2 DR Congo
3 Nigeria
4 Cameroon
Angola
6 Namibia
7 Somalia
Mozambique
9 Zimbabwe
10 Libya

Now here are the poorest 10.

South Sudan
2 Burundi
3 Central African Republic
Somalia
5 DR Congo
6 Mozambique
7 Niger
Malawi
9 Chad
10 Liberia

We have only 2 poor countries in the violent nations top 10.

Please explain this.

Slovenia is one of the poorer EU countries yet it has the lowest violet crime rate.

Crime obviously goes beyond money or the lack of it.

1. Slavery happened across the world. Economics and religion are a better explanation. Culture does not work
2. All the African countries you listed are all poor countries (even south africa) with bad law enforcement, so your data set is useless.

tctrills:
The argument is not DNA, it is cultural.
God doesn't create the culture, you create it and you can change it.
Killing of twins was culture, it was stopped.
Black on black violence is cultural, and it can be stopped.
Fatherlessness is cultural and we can put an end to it.
Hope you now understand the difference between DNA and culture?
You are welcome my brother.

Culture is a loose word. It is useless and meaningless when it comes to real world solutions towards crime.

Crime is dependent on two major factors. Poverty and law enforcement.

tctrills:
Have you heard of the say, 'Charity begins at home?' I am sure this is your first time hear it.
Which should I be more concerned about, black culture or white culture?
Unlike you, my first concern is the culture of the blacks and right now it's a shame.
You are free to highlight the evils in white culture and I will not even argue that with you but clearly, black American is held back by it's negative cultures.

The solution to black violence in the US is not more policing, it's not more money. Both have been tried.

It's simple, change the culture.

Please, crime is not dependent on race or culture. The two most influential factors that affect crime are poverty and law enforcement.

I can tell you for a fact that I have relatives who live in secure estates in Chicago. As bad as Chicago is, their rich community is safe.

tctrills:
Good, you are getting smart.
Whites also have very bad cultures that they should improve.
But I will leave it for whites to fix while you and I concern ourselves with fixing the evils in our culture.

You are finally getting it.

From the prompt below and it's result, you see that addiction is a cultural problem in the US. So yes, there are good and bad cultures and society should work to improve the bad or negative ones

See this clown.

All this while, you never claimed that white people have "criminal culture" but until Deepsight showed you the figures. You have been demonizing blacks since by claiming they have a criminal culture. What a shame.

So, wouldnt the simple accurate description of this issue be that there is crime everywhere?

tctrills:
You kids find it hard to understand the difference between culture and DNA. It's a big difference.
Also, I was talking about the Black Americans not all blacks. The black Ghanians for example do not have a criminal culture.

Accra that is a hotbed of yahoo boys. Or do you ignorantly not realise that there are Ghanian yahoo songs?

There is crime everywhere from USA to Nigeria to Asia

tctrills:
So again you are wrong. Culture is not about money but about people.
Even if much more money was stolen, it doesn't mean more Americans are into fraud.
Do you understand?
Let's educate you more.
If one says the Mafia culture is strong in southern Italy, it doesn't mean everyone in southern Italy is Mafia.
Same goes for Mexico.

Online fraud in Nigeria, has developed into a complex, quasi-cultural phenomenon among youth, driven by economic hardship, unemployment, and the glamorization of quick wealth. While not reflective of the entire population, it is a significant issue,

It has moved beyond a simple criminal act and into a subculture with its own language, music, social hierarchy, and moral justifications.

By 2026, sociologists and cultural critics point to several key pillars that suggest this shift from "crime" to "culture

https://www.scribd.com/document/994523898/From-Crime-to-Culture-a-[url]Machine-Learning-Study-of-Cybercrime-Yahoo-Yahoo-Normalization-Among-Nigerian-Youths-and-Digital-Communities#:~:text=So%20in%20the%20form%20of,Addressing%20it%20requires%20more[/url]

In many Nigerian communities, the "Yahoo Boy" has replaced the traditional professional (doctor, lawyer) as the symbol of success.

This is what makes it culture not the amount of dollars involved

You are welcome

Note the shifting from "culture" to "subculture" because it is not clearly reflecting on the total population.

So with all the hacker and mafia movies in the usa, they don't have a criminal subculture? The glorification of hacker groups like Anonymous and Lapsus? The hollywood movies showing how millions are wiped from accounts to bitcoin or offshore accounts? So american hackers dont have their own lingo (language eg blackhat etc)?

Are you aware that the yahoo boys buy tech software from Asian countries who source from the USA?

You are a hater of black people. When the white people or USA does it, it is just "normal crime" but when it is Nigerians, "it is a culture of criminality"

Uncle Ruckus vibes

tctrills:
I don't even get what you are trying to say

Of course, you wouldn't when your racist lie about black criminality is debunked....

tctrills:
Every Yoruba man doesn't have to have an agbada for one to say it's a part of the culture.
Again, I advise, make your points without insults

You do realise that the very Internet fraud you are talking about is a bigger market in the USA? Do you realise that credit card fraud in the USA cost the economy 8.9 billion dollars in 2023.

Would you now foolishly argue that the USA has Internet fraud culture?

Or rather, crime is a part of every society....

tctrills:
Black Americans have a culture of criminality, laziness, irresponsibility. Do you want me to pull up the data?

Lol.....is white saviour Trump a criminal? With all his fraudulent charities, universities, rape cases etc.

tctrills:
For example, if I say Nigerians have a culture of internet fraud. You would attack me as if that matters but the fact remains than yahoo Yahoo is now an accepted way of life in Nigeria.

So all the hardworking Nigerians also have the culture of Internet fraud? The accountants, the doctors, lawyers and engineers in Nigeria have a culture of Internet fraud? Can you see that you are not well?

tctrills:
Black Americans have a culture of criminality, laziness, irresponsibility. Do you want me to pull up the data?

4% of black people are millionaires in the USA. Does that mean that those 4 percent have a criminal culture? For whites though, it is 20%.....

tctrills:
Black Americans have a culture of criminality, laziness, irresponsibility. Do you want me to pull up the data?

DeepSight, there is no need to respond to this ignorant statement.

So, all black Americans decided to create a culture of criminality? Can you imagine the nonsense?

When i asked him to define black culture, he couldn't say anything of substance...

tctrills:
My dear, I am only using your rules.
You just accused an innocent white kid of a crime years after he was found innocent.
Sorry, not one crime, but two.
He was exonerated of manslaughter yet you claim he could have been guilty of it. How can an innocent man be guilty of manslaughter.
And then you said he carried a gun with the intent to kill.
By the standards set by you, why are you not a racist?
Secondly,
Did Kyle Rittenhouse commit manslaughter or carry a gun with the intent to kill?

Even with all my explanations, you are still repeating the same lies.

At this point either you are paid shills with no conscience or you are cult zombie.

tctrills:
Guy, why are you refusing to call out a racist here. Is it because she is on the left?
@ GracieX3.

You accuse me of not being able to call out Trump. Now it's up to you to lead by example.

For what reason are you calling me a racist, Uncle Ruckus?

tctrills:
My dear friend DeepSight, are you prepared to apply your rule and call this beautiful lady a racist for accusing Kyle Rittenhouse of the intent to kill even after the jury found him completely innocent?

Are you brave enough to tell a fellow leftist on this platform that she is a racist or would you accept everything that comes from the left.

Do you worship the left and blindly follow everyone and everything from the left?

What use is it criticizing Trump who would never hear what you say when you could correct and help a sister on this platform recover from racism.

This is where you are needed the most.

George Zimmerman was found not guilty. So was OJ Simpson.

I used the phrase "could have been" and not "should have been" in Kyle rittenhouse's case.

I was not arguing against the court's decision. I was saying that it could have gone either way.

Keep lying and twisting to cover up racism. It is what your side does.

raumdeuter:
The US visa lottery was passed under a Republican administration

The conservative are for following the law while leftists are for chaos

How many laws has Trump broken?

raumdeuter:
Conservatives are anti illegal immigration. You can lie all you want but the right is not anti immigration its anti illegal immigration

Its the left who riots destroy properties seek to punish success and go on grievance and victimhood parades

Everyone can see that you are lying to yourself.

Such a disgrace
