FEBRUARY HARVARD CAPS / HARRIS POLL: 58% OF VOTERS ARE MORE SATISFIED WITH TRUMP'S JOB AS PRESIDENT THAN BIDEN

[Aryeh Jay]

Hey, do not lecture me on honesty when you are supporting a president who can't make a speech or post a tweet or say anything at all without lying to you.

I know that there must be some people, somewhere, that think he isn't lying. They are obviously living in an alternate reality. But you obviously know he does it. I refuse to believe that you don't. So how on earth can you ignore it? At what point does it become embarrassing?

How can you be embarrassed when your leader goes on and on taking about Arnold Palmer's manhood in the locker room when your leader couldn't stop gazing?

If anything, they should be enacting legislation to keep Donald Trump out of public restrooms.

ALL politicians lie. That is already well established. If you believe otherwise, then please find me a politician who is 100% honest. But, I don't ignore what I see are lies from any politician, including the ones whom I support. I don't ignore what I see as lies by anyone in the media either.

They are boiling the frog. Just raising the temperature a little every time. Say it in jest. Get other people to repeat it. Get some moron in the senate to ask why it couldn't actually be done. Mention it as a possibility ('“There are methods which you could do it,” Trump said in a telephone interview with NBC News from Mar-a-Lago, his private club: https://apnews.com/article/trump-th...nd-amendment-efba31be02ee96b0ef68b17fe89b7578). Lay out the means whereby it could be done.

Pretty soon we'll have Trump supporters repeating it on the forum. I guarantee it. Some have already mentioned it. Oh, in jest though. Surely. Until it's not.

I read that entire apnews.com article. Is there a transcript for the that telephone interview with NBC News?

Also, there is this analysis from Derek Muller, a professor of election law at Notre Dame, on that article which is useful.
He suggested that Trump is talking about a third term for political reasons to “show as much strength as possible.”
“A lame-duck president like Donald Trump has every incentive in the world to make it seem like he’s not a lame duck,” he said.

Because he is a dictator... Since when is speaking the truth wrong? it's insane anymore.

Because it's not the truth. But I see you still continue happily pushing Russian propaganda here. Some things don't change, huh...

I really don't care that the truth irritates people, it's still truth.

Well, you certainly didn't start your post with one.

You are ignoring his lies. And you know that they are lies. You have to ignore them because someone who lies as easily as taking a breath simply cannot be trusted. And you cannot admit to not trust the person you voted for.

It really is that simple.

Are you really being serious? You just suggested that a comment that Trump is a 'lame-duck president' has some traction because he is suggesting that he might try for a third term. So he needs to do it because he knows he's doing so badly?

That is your excuse for him suggesting it? Unbelievable. Simply unbelievable.

I am not ignoring anyone's lies. The only Person Whom I can always trust to never ever let me down while always doing what is right and honorable is the Lord Jesus Christ. It really is that simple.

I do not believe that Trump is doing badly. Trump does not believe that he is doing badly. I know that my belief about current American politics will never be accepted by the opposite side, whether that opposite side is international across the oceans, or here in the USA. But, I'm okay with that. Just like I am also okay with the realities of what happens in politics with lame-duck Presidents.
Sincerely, I do appreciate and respect your point of view, no matter how many times we disagree with one another. I hope that you believe that.

Unfortunately, it appears that some don't understand when politicians are trolling the media.

Trump posting an AI generated video about the Gaza strip
Trump posting an AI generated image of himself with a crown
Trump posting an AI generated image of himself as pope
Trump selling Trump-2028 hats
He does a lot of trolling. So much one wonders whether he works or not.
Your country has numerous fentanyl deaths, school shootings, is losing ground in education compared of Asia, numerous homeless veterans. There is an expanding measles outbreak. Bird flu has decimated your stock of laying hens. And what do you get?
A president who doesn't solve any of these issues but spends his time trolling the media.

Those other issues are being solved.

Really.

Here is a graph of the numbers of fentanyl deaths per year upto 2023.

Fentanyl Deaths Per Year In U.S. | Trend Chart (2025)

Examine the sharp increase in U.S. fentanyl deaths from 1999 to 2023, the contributing factors, and the essential public health measures needed.

Note the steep increase starting around 2013-2014 (Obama administration), that continued and accelerated during the Trump-1 administration. It flattens during the Biden years (way too high, but at least it flattens).
What result do you think Trump will achieve in this matter?
