• Trump

    From Aaron Thomas@1:342/201 to All on Mon Dec 1 23:19:08 2025
    Nobody has ever been more real than President Trump. I love that man.

    We're the voters. Screw the "delegates."

    Who do we want in 2024?

    I hate celebrities, but Trump was one of them until now. So what does this mean? Ted Nugent for president? Phil Soussan? Rob Schneider? Tim Allen?

    Seriously: Who tf can we trust? Not Mitt Romney! That's for damn sure! Better go with Jason Aldean, or something!


    J.D. Vance is ok so far, but he's just a congress critter. Who is the next "chosen by God" candidate!?

    I'd vote for Ted for Governor. But he's probably smart enough to not run for it.

    We need to stop looking at people who are good at X and then assume that they will be good at everything else. A good actor does not necessairly mean a good leader - even if he did play one on TV.

    Probably J.D. for the next President and we'll see how that goes. He still has at least 2 more years to prove to us that he's President material.

    No, but those celebrities I mentioned are a few of the ones who had the guts to show support for Trump. That's a really good quality because we need someone brave like Trump who's willing to go against the grain.

    He seems great but he's kinda quiet. We need to see him get angry and loud.

    I think we'll see more of that as we get closer to 2028.

    IHMO: I think Trump will slowly start moving JD into the limelight as his term progresses. What we want is for everyone to see that JD will continue the Trump policies and plans. And is strong enough to make it happen.

    I don't see that myself. I think JD is fully MAGA. I think JD should be tested so that we can see the result.

    I think JD is in our corner and the fact that he's more laid back and not bombastic like Trump he could win over the center left votes for some time to come.

    Good point. Only a few of them get into details. Joe Lynn Turner comes to mind as one of the celebrities who gets specific about things. Phil Soussan too. I rank them higher than celebrities who have been vague about why they support Trump.

    But OTOH, I'll buy a beer for anyone who wears a MAGA hat. They are my people regardless of their explanation.

    For what they have done in the past, they get the benefit of the doubt for a time. But they have to constantly prove that they are worthy of our trust.

    Inducted in 2022

    Ted has NEVER been nominated never mind inducted.
    I have heard Ted's take on this and he says it's because he's a Republican.

    Ted commented commented in the past about Joan Jet making waves at the Hall of Fame for her guitar ability.

    Yes, Joan plays guitar, but she's not Ted Nugent good.

    I'll thread this back to Dolly... When dolly plays guitar she uses her index finger to play some stupid bar cord, because she has 4" faker nails and there is NOWAY she can even see the guitar over her HUGE T!TTIES.

    Just my opinion on what she can see...

    I agree. The left likes to refer to Liz Cheney as "a Republican who supports Kamala." So it's almost certain that they have planted seeds with certain "conservative" celebrities.

    Trump has been loyal to us all along (as far as I can tell) and it gives me hope that there are other truly good ones out there.

    There are more than just you and Ted saying this. Additions to the Rock genre has stopped since ~ the 90s. They should just keep the doors open and stop inducting people because now alls they are doing is scraping the botton of the barrel... They inducted Journey


    I know Dolly's in there, and that she's not even a rock musician. Same thing with Run DMC, Public Enemy, even Whitney Houston.


    This is why they need to induct Ted and then stop inducting.

    I was thinking about Joan Jett and she's nothing but a cover band, think about it, she's in and Ted is not.

    It's got to be an organization formed by record companies and/or radio station owners.

    I agree. The left likes to refer to Liz Cheney as "a Republican who supports Kamala." So it's almost certain that they have planted seeds
    with certain "conservative" celebrities.

    I would point to MTG instead of Liz. The Cheneys have always been in the Elitist camp and not really Republicans.

    IHMO: MTG entered Washington a good person, but got corrupted along the line. At least she has enough self-awareness to leave before the corruption gets too bad.

    Trump has been loyal to us all along (as far as I can tell) and it
    gives me hope that there are other truly good ones out there.

    I think that many come in good, but something happens to corrupt them. It would be interesting to find out how that happens.

    If we get another Elitist Governor next year, I will be seriously considering moving out of state.

    I heard disappointing news about NY's Nicole Malliotakis and 6 other GOP US Reps voting with Democrats to overturn Trump's EO against a federal labor union. I don't know the whole story, but I know that I trust Trump a lot more than I trust that snake faced beach, or any type of labor union.

    Supposedly it's a labor union that has financed her campaigns. If true, it's a perfect example of more trash that we need to get out on the curb before pick-up day.

    There's a psychic I loosely follow, and she predicted the pandemic back around 2018 with about 85% accuracy. Now she's warning that there will be another "pandemic," it won't be as lethal as before, but the Democrats will try to treat it like it is, but that Trump will handle it a lot differently this time.

    I hope it's not true but let's see what kind of tricks they play.

    There's a psychic I loosely follow, and she predicted the pandemic back around 2018 with about 85% accuracy. Now she's warning that there will
    be another "pandemic," it won't be as lethal as before, but the
    Democrats will try to treat it like it is, but that Trump will handle it
    a lot differently this time.

    I hope it's not true but let's see what kind of tricks they play.


    I'm sure they'll try but no one is buying that brand of BS again.

    Maybe someone the media convinced her that "sharks are not dangerous."


    Maybe... They can be and that's why you don't mess with them.

    I was talking to my mother the other day about Gators and Crocks. Crocks are more aggressive. They'll swim 3 miles to bite you, not because it was hungry, but rather BECAUSE. Whereas Gators are not like that. They'll avoid you if possible... AS A GENERAL RULE.

    So, my mother thought I meant that you can keep them as pets... sends me links on people who were attacked by a Gator... The point was missed...

    Recall the story I told you when I first went to Florida, 4th of July celebration, kids were swimming in the canal and there were Gators sunning themselves not far away. I start to panic... I was told to relax...

    I personally don't care what they say... I'm not going to swim where Gators are in case there is one that is hungry.

    So... Don't pet Gators, Sharks and Canadian Geese and you'll probably live a little longer.

    No, Canadian Geese are territorial and aggressive. They may look cute but they'll try to FUP with their beak, do not go over and try to pet one.

    I saw a video of an elderly woman, in her 70s or whatever, where a Canadian Goose was aggressive and ran at her. The old lady ran towards the goose, shortened the distance between them, She grabbed the goose around its neck and she tossed in as far as she could.

    Goose was completely confused by the old lady that it ran off and added to more aggression.

    I learned a lot from that and I await for a goose to come my way... I will be the winner in that interaction.

    I thought I left this message... nope.

    There are some animals that Canada and the US share that can mess you up.

    Buffalo, its actually Bison, the top 1/3 of Alberta is an area called Wood Buffalo... so it doesn't help... Buffalo(s) will f**k you up. They can weigh up to 2000 ponds and they are extremely protective to the herd.

    I saw a video where someone wanted to get close to a buffalo to get a picture with it... The buffalo hooked on to them and literally tossed the person around 15 feet into the air. The only thing that saved the persons life was that he landed in a tree and he clung on for dear life.

    I knew someone who went buffalo hunting they shot one. The entire herd surrounded the dead buffalo for a couple hours protecting it. Once they left the hunters went in to claim the animal.

    In my house we have a term called a "Buffalo Eye" ... Buffalo's have that look (WTF did you just do look) before the kick your ass... I give my daughter what is called the Buffalo Eye when she's giving me grief. I do so to change her attitude and it seems to work.

    An other Moose... The can weigh a lot, not like Buffalo... heave side at ~ 1000 pounds. They don't run in herds but they'll chase you and stomp you... A cow (female) will do anything to protect its calves.

    So... now we've talked about 5 North American animals that are aggressive. I moved the Canadian Goose lower in the list because I saw the old lady kick its ass... Here's the list of North American Animals not to pet.

    1) Buffalo
    2) Moose
    3) Crocks
    4) Gators
    5) Canada Goose

    Aaron, being the city slicker you are I'd just avoid anything that is not human and just mind your own business.

    But do you get my joke? I think it's a Nova Scotian joke. "Feedin the geese."

    I didn't know they were so tough though. I notice when I'm at the park and I get close to them, they don't fly away like other birds. I guess they ain't scared.
