Any bets?

Oct 24, 2018 12:20PM PDT

TheRUMP be giving another speech at a campaign rally tonight.

Will he change the rhetoric, after the events of today?

I think someone has to sit in the corner for an hour....with HIS thumbs tied behind HIS back.

why change?
Oct 24, 2018 12:32PM PDT

The fake bombs are a false flag event, done so Democrats could pull another stunt like the "Russia Dossei" and the "Russian Collusion" events they did in 2016. All the bombs are "duds", and I find that unbelievable unless they were deliberately designed to NOT go off. That indicates another "false flag" stunt by the Democrats just before the mid term elections.

Re: by the Democrats?

Do you think they were notified in advance?

PS..At least they didn't pre-empt. Judge Judy for the bomb scares

PS2...why change?

For their own sanity?

DIL yesterday morning when I found out that NONE had gone off.....surprisingly enough, a former SEAL team bomb expert was interviewed early evening yesterday and said the same thing stating the bombs were DESIGNED to NOT detonate.

Welcome to another October Surprise days before a major election.

There's a possible motive, if they were intended duds.

If caught, the perp faces much smaller charges vice death/maiming but fear is still generated.

Waiting for all the knowledgeable ones to finish investigating is a good idea.

NYPD just used the word intimidation as a possible motive; death and destruction on the table.

"these folks don't think logically. Hatred never does."

We've been saying for a long time that the radical left are out of their collective minds, especially since Trump was inaugurated, and they admittedly hate him, but it started before then with the destructive protests and riots and has only gotten worse because they continue to get encouragement from radical left leaders.

It's nice to see that agreement...….

You might want to check with Doug...

"these folks don't think logically. Hatred never does."

"these folks"?

When he says "these folks" he MIGHT include Trump Supporters/Republicans/righties.

People with hate in their heart never think logically?

Do righties have a "heart"?

Got a heart? Do you hold a grudge?..You are capable of hate.

Yep...I hate the policies
Oct 27, 2018 7:43AM PDT

and the agendas.....I don't hate the people who think them up, just the crowd mentality that agree with them and vote for them in Congress. I don't hate their individual voters (people like you and me) because most of them only pay attention to what they think sounds good but don't have all the information to know they are bad ideas in the long run and vote for those 'leaders' who will give it to them. Instant gratification with no thought to their own future and how bad it will get.

Yes, I have a heart....I feel for those in the caravan who are being lied to every day because the 'leaders' have their own agendas and are using them to pull on the heart strings of others. Are they being told that being poor in their own country is NOT an asylum issue according to OUR laws? No....that's why they are being schooled along the way to get them to say 'persecution' or 'fear' is why they are coming instead. They have had the ability to apply for asylum within their own countries and didn't. They have been offered asylum and government assistance by Mexico, but are refusing it as 'not enough' by those being interviewed and are insisting on coming to the USA, even if they have to do it illegally, because they USA 'offers more' than Mexico does. BUT nobody has asked them if what MEXICO is offering is MORE than what they already had in their own countries. IF it IS more, it obviously isn't enough for them. Should I become a 'bleeding' heart for them just because some leftist liberal SAYS I should? Are those liberals along the way convincing these 'poor' people that they are ENTITLED to get here instead of staying in Mexico?

Make no mistake....the radical LEFT has NO heart for these people....they are using them instead for their own agendas. Do you see ANY of those radical leftists, including those in Hollywood, taking money out of their own pockets to build housing for any of them or giving them jobs other than as gardeners or housekeepers (which is ILLEGAL, btw, since they are here illegally)? WHAT does the left DO for any of them other than make sure they are dumped ANYWHERE but near THEM?

The LEFT doesn't have any elected members of government in areas where the temperature is colder than/not as comfortable as the temperature of the countries that they came from?

States with an average temp BELOW 70F, no Caravan members expected?

Let Mother Nature sort them out/decide WHERE they go?

Where would YOU go, AFTER you snuck into Canada?

North West Territories near the Arctic Circle? Same temps as Virginia?

Mother Nature is a "leftie"?

More than 3 million migrant and seasonal farmworkers are estimated to be in the United States.1 In order to plan, monitor, and evaluate the health status and needs of the agricultural population, demographic information is necessary.

They can work there but they can't live there?
