I proposed it to show you that kids can be impulsive and rebellious. It doesn't make the parents bad or incompetent as you claim.
It's like saying a child who grows up and then takes to crime should hold his parents responsible for the life he chose.
A child has the school as one of the agents of socialisation. A school that teaches kids that it's OK to change your gender without informing your parents can't be blamed on the parents as you posit. It is a classical case of govt interfrence in parenting.
And I am proposing to you that a well brought up child will not be so impulsive and rebellious that it would now be confused about its gender. And its school can not convince it to change gender.

The school will after all not pay for the gender change. And if the school does convince the child to change gender then the parent should have not sent their child to that school, and should gave been more responsible in school choice and the overall development of that child.

Just think a little. Imagine you'd gone to your parents as a child and told them you are not the gender you were born with, and they should pay for you to change gender. I bet they'd tell you they must have fed you too much and your belly is too full. Because, if it weren't, you'd have focused on the education they paid for you to go get at school.

If my child told me such nonsense, or even if the school had told me my child wants a gender change, I'd ask if it wants to change species too, into a dog perhaps, and the school should pay for it, because I definitely wouldn't be wasting my own money on such nonsense when I could be using that money to feed and educate my children.

I would be very concerned if my child can not tell me and instead tells their teacher. Something must be wrong somewhere, and I would look at myself first before blaming my lack of responsibility on my stupid child who should have been more focused on its education.

Fuq! Child should be telling me it wants to be a doctor or lawyer or Elon Musk or the president, and not a dog or the gender it was not born with! After all, na me born am, so why was I not indoctrinating my child to be what I want my child to be?

If my child is that stupid, I fuqed up somewhere, same as if my child decides it wants to be an armed robber or a mass shooter. If I trained it well, it would be an astronaut instead, but if as you claim, child is impulsive and rebellious, then I guess it can go buy its own food and pay its own rent and be whatever pleases it when it leaves my house.

Note. The child is not holding me responsible for its gender confusion. I am holding myself responsible for my child's gender confusion, just as I am responsible for its general overall wellbeing.

But she never said she had multiple summer jobs. She mentioned McDonald's and she never said she did it briefly and left it.
Let's go with what she said. Summer job in McDonald's to pay her bills. Worked fries and cash register. Full stop

This Trump 2.0 may be far worse than his first
.
Yes, his tax cuts would have been good for the economy but economic analysis indicated it would have grown faster had he not gone on a trade war. His tariffs on Chinese goods actually slowed down the economy.

In addition, the inflation that Biden had to fight, it all started during Trump's presidency. Those welfare checks and other schemes to boost the economy later became inflationary as too much money flowed into the system.

The EU and the UK also suffered from the same inflation malaise caused by pumping too much money into the economy to reflate it. It wasn't uniquely limited to America.

Anyway, I won't argue with you as you provided a reason why you believe the economy would do well under Trump again.
More projections from you. Just seeing the first line

May be worse, based on what?

Americans looked back at his previous 4yrs and compared it to Biden years

Both left and right voted for him. They were Enlightened by their wallet, the border, inflation, LGBT crap, and many more, especially the lies and lawfare against Trump. They know about the story of the guy who cried Wolf.

They saw time and time again how the media had to fabricate lies against a supposed liar.

Regardless - the fact remains that these things alternate. Next time they may vote Democrat.
And I dont know where you got the impression that the left voted for him.

It also does not change the fact that there is a large amount of bush people in the US.
Generally, most Trumpists are bush people. Not all, but the vast majority.

You're totally misinformed. The state law empowers schools to teach kids the different genders available. It also allows schools to teach kids that they can be trapped in the wrong body. These are being taught in most public schools. So except you have the money to take your child to a private school, you basically have no control over what is fed to your children. More importantly, it is not you who pays for the hormone changing drugs or gender affirming care. It is govt that pays for it. All that is required is your consent for the gender reassignment AFTER the child had requested it. That's the only place you can step in. Go and get educated properly about the issues around this gender issue in the US. As Trump said, it is purely child abuse

Lol. I am no "demonrat." I particularly take exception to their approach to Trans Issues, Gender Pronouns, Men competing in female sports, and a number of other matters.

None of these however suffice to ever make me support a racist low life skunk or a racist cause.

I will no sooner debate this with you than I would argue with a flat earther. Your interpretation of "they are poisoning our blood" stunned me enough to ever waste my time debating this point with you.

Not "a child". Your child. The child you allow to have a girlfriend and who now needs advice on the use of condoms. You haven't stated age here, but I really would have thought you'd have taught your child about sex and condoms, especially if you let said child have a girlfriend. You after all wouldn't want your child to compromise its future by non-condom use now would you, especially if you are against aborting.

As for your child being influenced to change its gender, sorry, but that's because you haven't influenced your child yourself. It's in fact similar to you not influencing your child not to be woke or a pagan and then blaming others for making your child woke and a pagan. If you trained your child in the way you want it to go, and if you did a good job at it, no one should be able to wokify your child, at least not until it becomes an adult.

I'm giving you a pass on your "You guys". Personally, I'm waiting for when children claim they are dogs and then start barking. Perhaps you'd accept the parent is responsible then for stupefying or allowing their own child to be stupefied into thinking it is what it isn't, while better parents are encouraging their children to think they can breath fire.

Basilico, I am talking to you!
I've been bashing our resident idiot calling him every other post, what kind of parent is this MSNBC host Scarborough?



In the aftermath of the election, MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough ranted about how Democrats are out of touch with everyday Americans on cultural issues, including the transgender issue.

“Democrats should be smarter on the women’s athletics thing. Eighty-five percent of Americans oppose men transitioning after puberty and competing against women….I’ve been saying this for years. This is not a hard call…one way we don’t do this is by allowing men who transition after puberty competing against young girls who have been working their entire lives to be as good as they can be and then they get destroyed,” he said.


It's OK for a child who transitioned before puberty to compete with girls.
The prepubescent is considered old enough to make a decision to mutilate his/her body.
I circle back. If that is so,the kid can also have sex.

Liberal hack pollsters like Marist, Yougov, Ipsos and Morning Consult published garbage polls showing Ted Cruz is in danger of losing, Sam Brown is down 10 points, Kari Lake would lose in a 15 point landslide. These reduced funding for them... How can Mitch McConnell refuse to give Kari Lake a penny in a swing state because he didn't like her but gave 10 million to Larry Hogan and also to Steve Garvey?? huh Mitch spent over 20 million to make sure Murkowski won her primary in 2022 which sabotaged other races.

With Susie Wiles' as COS I believe Trump's second term would be better and less chaotic than the first. If he folsters peace and stabilizes the economy Republicans would do well in 2026 midterms... Virginia would be close but I think Republicans can retain the attorney general and lieutenant governor's office. The governorship might be dicey due to the democrat potential flag bearer is quite strong but if Trump records some wins in the first 6 months it'd help 2025 elections. That's why Trump needs a unified Congress.

Attorney General - Andrew Bailey/Ken Paxton/Mike Davis.
Secretary of State - Tulsi Gabbard/Rand Paul
Secretary of Defense - Mike Rogers/Mike Flynn

Hobbs is in deep trouble in 2022... Mark Lamb or Blake Masters just need to run again.

Mitch is a RINO. Much as he helped Trump policies, he backstabbed him.
Republican and Democrats unite over many matters that have to do with their welfare .
Mitch slowed Trump agenda somehow for one he refused to send senate on recess in order to block Trump from making recess appointments.

This is not a secret and to be honest most Africans would be the same or worse considering our rabid ethno-chauvinism and tribalism.
I despise all racism / tribalism.

However I can add that it might be a natural tendency built into creatures - there is some science to this.
This still doesn't make me despise it less. I do not believe that the world is a beautiful place or that the creator(s) of this world is (or are) benevolent.

And his clones in Cornyn and Thune are running for leader. If Trump wants to succeed he should make sure at least Cornyn doesn't become leader of the senate.

How can Thune and Cornyn only have 51 percent conservative voting record when they live in solid and likely red states?

interesting take seeing as kushner was given roles he did not have security clearance for and how he got 2 billion from the saudis

and ivanka being put in roles she had absolutely no qualification for

all i expect in trump 2.0 is more of the same - an army of incompetent yes men and the gutting of more institutions to give a fake idea of progress ; rallies instead of actual work, golfing at mara lago , executive time on twitter and maybe selling state secrets to americas enemies

basically the changing of americas government to something resembling any third world govt where everyone is beholden to the president first and foremost

i also have to wonder what happens next - towards the end of the election trump was showing signs of dementia. was that an act - or will we now see accelerated simulated blow jobs?
