I didn't watch the speech, but I agree that it's inappropriate to sit on your hands when you have the opportunity, as a branch of government, to show recognition and empathy for suffering, courage, achievement, etc. Yeah I know it's highly staged political theater, but these are real people and you treat and respect them as such.ddraig wrote: ↑Thu Mar 06, 2025 8:47 pmI think we all can agree that what the Dims did during the speech when a 13-year-old cancer patient was introduced, when an 18-year-old High School Student got an appointment to West Point, and when women were acknowledged that they were killed by illegal aliens, what did they do?

US and Ukraine in Saudi Arabia talks cut a 30 day cease fire.....but US to resume intelligence and weapons and "hope" Russia goes along.

Let me know when Trump cures cancer instead of pulling funding from researchers.ddraig wrote: ↑Thu Mar 06, 2025 8:47 pmI think we all can agree that what the Dims did during the speech when a 13-year-old cancer patient was introduced, when an 18-year-old High School Student got an appointment to West Point, and when women were acknowledged that they were killed by illegal aliens, what did they do?

Re: Zelenskyy at the Oval Office
Even if Trump were to cure cancer, he is correct when he said the Dims would do nothing to acknowledge this tremendous effort simply because he, Trump, did it! By the way, he said IF he cured cancer the Dims would never approve. He never said he would cure cancer. Only an idiot would turn his words around to state he would cure cancer.Seattle or Bust wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 3:34 amLet me know when Trump cures cancer instead of pulling funding from researchers.ddraig wrote: ↑Thu Mar 06, 2025 8:47 pmI think we all can agree that what the Dims did during the speech when a 13-year-old cancer patient was introduced, when an 18-year-old High School Student got an appointment to West Point, and when women were acknowledged that they were killed by illegal aliens, what did they do?

Re: Zelenskyy at the Oval Office
I personally know some republicans who care about curing cancer, so I think this is a bit of hyperbole. But I agree completely with your bigger point: trot out a young cancer patient for a made for prime time tear fest, while you are gutting the capabilities of cancer research.Seattle or Bust wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 3:34 amLet me know when Trump cures cancer instead of pulling funding from researchers.ddraig wrote: ↑Thu Mar 06, 2025 8:47 pmI think we all can agree that what the Dims did during the speech when a 13-year-old cancer patient was introduced, when an 18-year-old High School Student got an appointment to West Point, and when women were acknowledged that they were killed by illegal aliens, what did they do?

Or maybe the private sector will step in and cure cancer, with all the tax breaks and DOGE dividends coming. (Government has failed; let big Pharma have a chance, right?)

The irony is that he is so far removed from curing cancer that it’s just a moronic hypothetical to propose even if meant to be satirical.ddraig wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 5:53 amEven if Trump were to cure cancer, he is correct when he said the Dims would do nothing to acknowledge this tremendous effort simply because he, Trump, did it!

Trump gives tax cuts to billionaires and fuels the dreams of racists.
You let me know when there’s something I should be applauding. Is it bullying our allies and sucking off Putin? Parading sick kids on a stage as a publicity stunt while he cuts funding for cancer research? Doing an ad for Tesla to protect his boyfriend’s business?
Re: Zelenskyy at the Oval Office
It was tongue in cheek. The Dims wouldn't give Trump a win on anything even if he stole all their few, good ideas and gave them credit for them. They'd still sit on their hands! They suffer from incurable TDS. Trump didn't think any sane person would take him literally! But he did troll the angry Dims.
I'm not saying Trump is right on everything. What I'm saying is that the guy has had what? 42 days to get us back on an even footing. And if Big Pharma was actually trying to cure cancer in my lifetime, they wouldn't be sitting around skimming off our tax dollars. Imagine that one comapny actually cured cancer. How much money would they rake in?

Re: Zelenskyy at the Oval Office
I don’t agree that’s what happening with “your” tax dollars. But even if it’s not totally efficient. Removing it and then replacing it with nothing solves nothing. It just leaves sick people in the dark until you flaunt them on a stage.ddraig wrote: ↑Wed Mar 12, 2025 7:16 pmIt was tongue in cheek.

Nobody disagrees that tax dollars should be spent more efficiently. Issue is you’ve stuck tweedle dumb and dipshit at the forefront of getting it done when they have no idea how any of this works.

The bottom line is that the Dems don't care what the right or President Trump accomplishes. They will be sore losers and bitch and complain about all of it.
Can you at least acknowledge that?
