"The choice facing America is simple -- it's the choice between historic prosperity under my pro-American policies or very crippling poverty and a steep depression under the radical left."

Donald Trump



"The choice before Nigerians in the coming elections is simple: A choice between going forward or going backwards; between the new ways and the old ways; between freedom and repression; between a record of visible achievements and beneficial reforms-and desperate power-seekers with empty promises."

~ Goodluck Jonathan, 19th February, 2015.

The parallel between Goodluck Jonathan and Donald Trump is uncanny.

Jonathan mishandled the Chibok kidnapping poorly, Trump mishandled the coronavirus pandemic badly. They both did not take these issues seriously until it was too late. They both believed they were "hoaxes" by the opposition.

Jonathan was afraid of losing and so called for postponement of the election. Same as trump who is touting postponing the elections.

Jonathan seeing his campaign failing carried out aggressive last grasp campaigning a couple of weeks to elections. Trump also seeing his campaign flagging is set to whiz through the country vigorously campaigning the next few weeks, very close to the elections.


The only difference might be Jonathan readily accepted defeat, despite the opposition of his base. Will Trump accept defeat?

Trump has 87m followers on twitter. Ive not checked his feed, but he should order an investigation of Joe , Hunter and Burisma.
Whats been alleged so far that is not reported is that the critters in Washington approved aid to Ukraine, Burisma owner had a bank that the funds were channelled to. and a huge amount was diverted to the DC critters via offshore banks. And some recipients included Republicans not only democrats.

Who is doing the alleging? I hope it's the FBI, CIA, Senate, House or other official investigative body, and not Fox news entertainment, Brietbart or QAnon.

A lots of my buddies got one and I know a guy with 6 AR. It's not to kill or harm people, it's for self defense. I belong to an African American Guns Owners Club in Chicago and part of the deal when we go to the shooting range is that we should get one to defend our family. Still working on it with wifey and they are making it so cheap now that you will get a very powerful one for a little over $3.000.

You need to explain to your wifey the dangerous times your are living in, especially as a black family in the US under Trump. You might need all the heavy ammo you can get your hands on. Follow the Boys Scout motto; "Be Prepared". Trump will not go down without a fight, and he has specifically instructed his white nationalists groups like Proud Boys, 5 percenters and others to stand down and stand by. Now, imagine what will happen if he orders them to take over the streets, the states and the country. These white supremacists white groups are stocking arms and training hard, just waiting for orders to cause mayhem. The casualties if they start their mayhem would be blacks first, Democrats second, then LGBT, Jews, muslims, immigrants, etc. I hope these white nationalists groups can differentiate all the uncle toms supporting Trump.

See them preparing for what's ahead in case Trump loses;

Spare us the sanctimonious talk. Hillary Clinton called half of the country a basket of deplorables, that didn't stop you from supporting her for president.

It's Trump supporters that Hillary Clinton called basket of deplorables. She wasn't expecting their support to begin with.

But Trump needs the support of the seniors. That was one of his main support base in 2016. Insulting them and them expecting their support is crazy.

People clued to CNN spend all their days telling the world how majority of Americans love sleepy joe.

The delusions is hilarious.

Just wait till after November 3rd to know what delusion means. Trump is most likely going to have the worst election loss in the history of US presidential elections.

45%? that must be Eric Trump and his family, Trump is tearing down all benefits LGBT have from health care to social security, he is going ahead to appoint a judge thats anti LGBT, only a foolish LGBT will vote him

You will soon hear their favourite line "Trump has done more for the LGBT community than any president in history "

Bluebyrd:
Biden has made these "mistakes" too many times for us to still think they are mistakes. The man is mentally unfit. In that same video, he directed people to a website that doesn't even exist, what will you call that one? Another mistake?

Believe me, if we are to compile and compare Biden's gaffes with that of Trump, Trump's insane rants on Twitter and in interviews will be a hundred times more insane and stupid than Biden's. Biden went through a gruesome primaries with other democratic contenders, believe me, if he was mentally unfit as you guys have saying for over one year, other candidates would have taken advantage.

Even the Republican party had before the last debate warned Trump and his cult members, that the "mentally unfit " narrative would come back and hunt them, because they know Biden is very good in debates.

Bluebyrd:
Where is the dishonesty, you just confirmed that he said exactly what I posted. You are not even saying he didn't say that, you are saying he made a mistake so where is the dishonesty?

You guys are dishonest in implying that he is so mentally retarded that he didn't know which office he is running for, and you guys cut out the portion he said "I'm running as a proud democrat, for President".

Joe Biden Doesn't Know What Office He's Running For: "I'm Running As A Proud Democrat For The Senate"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyJX70X9CkA

You guys are so dishonest it borders on pure evil. It's obvious he made a mistake, and if you showed the whole speech instead of just a 7 seconds clip, it would have been obvious.

Here is the longer version of that speech;

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfJBVMWL6cQ

"....You know we have to come together. That's why I'm running. I'm running as a proud democrat, for senate. When I'm running as a proud democrat, for Vice President. I'm running as a proud democrat, for President. But I promise you this, I will govern as an American president. I will govern for everyone who voted for me or against me......"

Those that support him knows he has a speech impediment and sometimes his words might not come out perfectly, but they understand the message he is trying to pass through.

He what he was saying is; as a proud democrat, whether he is running for senate, vice president or president, he will govern for all Americans instead of only his base.

Now, compare it to Trump's insane rants about California sending millions of gallons of water into the Pacific, because they want to take care of tiny fish;

Man, Trump belongs in Yaba left.

All these talks all still fall on morality, and the point is morality doesn't govern a country

In as much as you can claim Clinton lied on the stand, he has been the best president in the last 50 years with only Reagan coming close. Simple, look at the numbers, come on.

In the issue of morality, Trump's name should never be mentioned. Trump has no moral compass whatsoever. In terms of telling lies, Clinton and Trump are galaxies apart. Trump lies with almost every breadth he takes.

Republicans had nothing on Clinton after 2 years of investigations, and then decided to look into his romantic and sexual affairs. And, they expected him to name and admit all the people he was having extra-marital and secrete affairs with.

Clinton's impeachment was a farce.
Why not Republicans ask Trump about Stormy Daniels on oath and see if he will admit to fucking her raw, just 2 weeks after his wife gave birth to Barron.

I don't understand why Trump's cult members think he should be held to a different standard (lower) than others.

wisdomkid:
But it's PERFECTLY OKAY for a government official paid 3 million a month to sent his kids to school abroad that their annual fee is 35k pounds, have 5 luxury cars worth 5 million each, have different houses in Abuja, Lagos, etc..

Which government officials is paid N3 million a month? Most don't get N3 million a year. Even the president's official salary is about N14 million a year.

And Dino Melaye having cars worth more than N2billion in his house without having not worked any known job or work outside being a legislative member does not raise suspicion?

Tinubu having billions of dollars worth of investments, hotels, houses, etc., does not raise suspicion?

Patient Jonathan having million of dollars that is being seized everyday and with billions of naira worth of properties does not raise suspicion?

Infact ALL politicians that live way above their means does not raise suspicion?

Why only phone, why not search people's drawers, wardrobes, office files, letter boxes, in search of evidence?

So According to Biden Voters don't deserve to know whether he will pack the courts or not? How to lose an election 101

"The moment I answer that every headline will be about that" - Sleepy Joe Biden

Also,

"You will know my opinions on court packing when the election is over" - Lost Joe Biden


If voters don't deserve to know if Joe Biden will pack the courts, then logic and common sense beckons that he actually doesn't deserve to be President.

Why should voters deserve to know if Joe Biden will pack the courts when according to you guys voters don't need to know Trump's taxes?

Also, which is the best way to lose an election; not answering whether you will pack the courts or not condemning white extremist when asked to do so, but instead ask them to stand bye and stand down?

She doesn't understand.

I know. But, it's so ironic that she calls other people ignorant.

See someone calling someone ignorant. I have not seen a more ignorant person in my over 10 years on nairaland. My 6 years old daughter talks more intelligently than you.

sexylassie2:
You have seen girls that did abortion in the morning and in the evening, hustling for customers.

I used to run a bar that had lots of hustlers (club girls) hanging around. Girls doing abortion in the morning and resuming work or hustle in the evening was no big deal. If they didn’t tell you, you would never know.

To be sincere, you know nothing of what you are talking about.

I hope you know that abortion processes are painful, no woman wish do that.

False. Not all abortion procedure is painful. Some abortion methods are non invasive, and employ only the use of drugs. Even invasive ones if done very early and by qualified gynecologist is relatively pain free.

Is miscarriage and abortion the same thing?

So, I have to educate you again so you can stop making a fool of yourself on this forum

Spontaneous abortion, which is the loss of a pregnancy without outside intervention before 20 weeks’ gestation, affects up to 20 percent of recognized pregnancies.

Spontaneous abortion refers to pregnancy loss at less than 20 weeks’ gestation in the absence of elective medical or surgical measures to terminate the pregnancy. The term “miscarriage” is synonymous and often is used with patients because the word “abortion” is associated with elective termination. “Spontaneous pregnancy loss” has been recommended to avoid the term “abortion” and acknowledge the emotional aspects of losing a pregnancy. Another emotionally neutral term is “early pregnancy failure.”

I deserve to collect a part of the money your folks wasted in paying for your schooling.

I am done talking with an ignorant person

Good, so you stop making a fool of yourself.

It's unacceptable, SARS did not observe federal character in killing of unarmed youths. This should be reported to the national assembly to investigate.

sexylassie2:
You are not a woman to feel the pains of abortion and what it does to us.

What does it do to you ? Have you done abortions before to claim authority in what it does to women?

I have seen club girls done an abortion in the morning, and by that night, their back again in a nightclub hussling for customers. Abortion done early enough and by professional gynecologist produce almost no pain or blood.

If you are talking about fear of pain, then women would not even think of getting pregnant, not to talk of delivering babies. Because, child birth would probably the the highest pain she would ever experience in her life.

The woman body is not built to kill babies but to produce babies.

False!

According to medical research 10 to 20% of all known pregnancies end in miscarriage

Miscarriage is the spontaneous loss of a pregnancy before the 20th week. About 10 to 20 percent of known pregnancies end in miscarriage. But the actual number is likely higher because many miscarriages occur so early in pregnancy that a woman doesn't realize she's pregnant.
https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/pregnancy-loss-miscarriage/symptoms-causes/syc-20354298

If you factor in unknown pregnacies where the woman didn't even know she was pregnant and thought her period only came late, the figures would be much higher.

Everything to you is about rich GOP vs Poor Communist Mothers

Yes, rich women would always find a way to abort an unwanted pregnancy safely, whether legal or otherwise, the problem is poor and vulnerable women who either are forced to risk their lives with unsafe abortion, or be saddled with an unwanted baby for the rest of her life.

As usual resulting to insults instead of proving me wrong. No good optics for anyone who has claimed to have penned a thesis.

Hillary committed crimes, instead Trump is the one accused of. That should worry you a lot, because the same script can be used against you.

The kidnapping plotters are BLM anarchists. They are and I repeat not right wing , at least the known arrested ring leader as you came here shooting off your mouth.

Which crimes have Hillary Clinton been accused of? Who is investigating any crimes against Hillary Clinton - FBI, CIA, Senate, Bill Barr. Why not bring a criminal charge before any judge and see if you don't look stupid.

"California is gonna have to ration water. You wanna know why? Because they send millions of gallons of water out to sea, out to the Pacific. Because they want to take care of certain little tiny fish, that aren't doing very well without water." -- Trump

"Number one, [California] should let water come down from the north, and accept it instead of throwing it out to the Pacific. But you always have to have forest management" -- Trump

No wonder Nancy Pelosi suggests invoking the 25th amendment. President Trump has completely lost his mind. He needs to he confined in mental institution.

Are you a dunce or what? Obama nominated Merrick Garland one month after the death of Antonin Scalia, did he wait 4 to 5 months?

You dont know A-N-Y-T-H-I-N-G about what you are talking about, cos you wont bring in the senate into this, cos if you did you would have known that nominating a SCOTUS is different from APPOINTING a SCOTUS, the former is the constitutional duty of the POTUS the latter is the duty of the Senate.

The Senate can reject or appoint any SCOTUS the POTUS NOMINATES, that is how the constitution works when APPOINTING SCOTUS.

You are just arguing with yourself. No one is debating with you who has the powers to nominate and who had the powers to appoint a SCOTUS. What people are debating is what reason did Mcconnell give for not screening the judge appointed by Obama, and what reason did the same McConnell give for wanting to screen the judge appointed by Trump now?

Are you now insinuating that hence forth, a Senate controlled by a party should never screen supreme Court justices appointed by a president from the opposition party?

He is very right, nobody released the virus, it's a pandemic it was prone to happen . Pandemics had been happening since the creation of the earth, and coronaviruses had been with with us since the dawn of human history. In fact coronaviruses are fairly periodic and the world was ripe for a major one. Lots of experts including Bill Gates, had been warning of an imminent outbreak and our ill preparedness to deal with it.

Tax cut help businesses,.

Stop!, you don't know what you are writing about

tax cut is a reduction in the rate of tax charged by a government

Tax cuts boost the economy by putting more money into circulation.

In the short run. Tax cut is like subsidy. You kick the deficit can down the road, until your debt catches up on you. With a national debt of $26 trillion and a budget deficit of $3 trillion, the US should be more responsible with tax cuts.
