    I wouldn't want John McCain for VP. Military people are good at what they do. but the politicians who come from military backgrounds have been terrible.

    John McCain, who was born in Panama, had a black baby.
    And your orange jesus did a number on him, calling a
    war hero a racist for raising an itty bitty black baby.

    ??? What is the name of this child?

    What I remember re: Trump vs. McCain was Trump's questions regarding McCain's war record, and you would be correct to say that Trump's characterization there was misleading, false, and crude.

    That is what Donald Trump thought of John McCain, the
    Republican nominee who ran against Barack Obama.

    Aaron doesn't seem to realize that McCain cannot run for VP because he is deceased.

    Hello Mike,

    John McCain, who was born in Panama, had a black baby.
    And your orange jesus did a number on him, calling a
    war hero a racist for raising an itty bitty black baby.

    ??? What is the name of this child?

    Bridget McCain.
    She does not like Donald Trump.
    At all.
    She is black.
    You would not understand.

    John McCain introduced her to his world at the Republican
    National Convention in 2008. The crowd cheered. As well as
    the entire country. Except for Donald Trump, who was still
    pouting about a black man from Kenya who was about to take
    the throne.

    Here is the relevant part of what went on (from Wikipedia) -

    During the 2000 Republican presidential primary, Senator John McCain,
    whose adopted daughter is a dark-skinned child from Bangladesh, was
    the target of a whisper campaign, which implied that he had fathered
    a black child out of wedlock. Voters in South Carolina were reportedly
    asked in a push poll, "Would you be more likely or less likely to vote
    for John McCain if you knew that he fathered an illegitimate black
    child?".[1] In addition, on the week of the nomination vote, dozens of
    radio stations were inundated with calls on this topic, and talk show
    hosts were asked what they thought of McCain's fathering of a black
    child out of wedlock.

    -=end quote=-

    Who was behind those shenanigans? Was it Nikki Haley, who has high
    aspirations of her own to become president? Was it the George W. Bush,
    who was a Republican candidate at the time? Or was it Donald Trump?
    Perhaps some other entity or nefarious group? Nobody seems to want
    to take credit. But several fit the bill ...

    What I remember re: Trump vs. McCain was Trump's questions regarding McCain's war record, and you would be correct to say that Trump's characterization there was misleading, false, and crude.

    Donald Trump is a racist and a bigot. Always has been. And always
    will be. He cannot change his stripes any more than you can change
    the color of your own skin. He is also anti-democratic, as well as anti-American, as shown by his own actions.

    What Trump said about McCain, after his funeral, questioning why
    the flag was being lowered to half-mast, was beyond the pale. His
    daughter - the one from Bangladesh - tweeted why.

    That is what Donald Trump thought of John McCain, the
    Republican nominee who ran against Barack Obama.

    Aaron doesn't seem to realize that McCain cannot run for VP because he is deceased.

    Cindy McCain is still around.
    So is Bridget. And a whole lot more.
    Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
    Trump should have learned that by now.

    All a president needs is a corpse as VP. So why not?

    Military people are good at what they do. but the politicians who come from
    military backgrounds have been terrible.

    George Washington did pretty well for himself.
    So did lots of other military generals.
    We even have a statue of one of them riding his
    horse. In front of Jackson Square, in New Orleans.
    Andrew Jackson, waving his hat, while riding his
    horse, and scaring the pigeons. What a sight to
    behold. Tourists love it.

    Dwight Eisenhower was the last military general
    who served as POTUS. But George Wallace came close
    to duplicating the feat by having Curtis LeMay on
    his ticket as VP. But we all know how that ended,
    with Nixon resigning from office in disgrace ...

    You would not understand.

    Apparently you don't understand too good, either. Bridget McCain is Bangladeshi. Bangladesh is a part of the Indian subcontinent. She is Asian, not black. And he didn't "have" her, she was adopted.

    Folks who did not regard John McCain as being a war hero because
    he got captured are the ones who wanted to tarnish his record - such
    as your dearly beloed orange jesus.

    It is called "dirty politics" - when no evidence can be found of
    a candidate having done anything wrong or immoral, make something up.
    If it sticks, so much the better. Your target is destroyed and you
    will have earned your keep.

    You pal Donald Trump is trying to pull the same kind of crap on
    Nikki Haley, by calling her a brown girl from "wherever she
    is from" = even though he knows full well she was born in South
    Carolina.

    Here is the relevant part of what went on (from Wikipedia) -

    During the 2000 Republican presidential primary, Senator John McCain,

    Except he didn't father her. She was adopted after his wife visited an orphanage in Bangladesh.

    He went along with it. Not that he had a choice.

    Why are you now suddenly spreading conservative conspiracy crap?

    who was a Republican candidate at the time? Or was it Donald Trump?
    Perhaps some other entity or nefarious group? Nobody seems to want

    Trump was not even a part of the political scene at the time, and was a Democrat back then.... so maybe you are right and it was him that did it, and
    maybe I am wrong to label it as "conservative conspiracy crap." If it was started by a Democrat, it would explain why you are regurgitating it here.

    Trump did not like McCain. Never did. And likely never will.
    Maybe it was because McCain spurned him by refusing to endorse
    him when he ran again Hillary Clinton. Or maybe it was because
    McCain also spurned him when he ran against Joe Biden. After
    all, we still have Obamacare. Thanks to John McCain.

    What Trump said about McCain, after his funeral, questioning why
    the flag was being lowered to half-mast, was beyond the pale. His
    daughter - the one from Bangladesh - tweeted why.

    Seems like you didn't understand here, either.

    It is very easy to understand Bridget McCain's tweets, as her
    command of the English language is quite good. Much better than
    your orange clown.

    I am in agreement with you here. You seem to have lost the plot.

    What plot? Trump bad. Everybody else good. Nothing else realy matters.

    Trump's recent claims on his Truth social media site that the President should have absolute immunity are a non-starter for me.

    Trump's claims are nonsense. But he can get a majority of justices
    on the USSC to agree with his nonsense, as he owns several of them.

    I have seen over the past few weeks Governor Burgum's name surface as VP, Trump says so so it's not just conjecture... Saw an other video, Liberal Hive Mind, and I'm now convinced this is Trump's VP.

    I'm on Amazon looking for a Trump/Burgum 2024 flag.

    I'm off to Costco with my Trump 2024 hat and my shirt that says "Just a regular DAD trying not to raise LIBERALS" shirt to see how many lefties I can trigger.

    I would love to have Bergum as VP. I think he will be great.

    But this pairing is against DEI policy and it offends Kurt and Bjorn that Trump's not making his selection based on gender, race, and minority statuses. (Sorry guys!)

    Trump's campaign was all about getting the best people for the job, anti-DEI. He can't get elected for the third time and start out buy putting someone in office based on the fact they have a vag!na or their a different shade from the others.

    Thank God that there are a fully qualified people to choose from that are different colors and have vag!nas... They have Kamala!!!

    I think the reason he's leaning towards Burgum is that he's a Billionaire and does need money... So he can't be bought like Biden, Clinton and Obama... just to name a few. The other reason, and just as important, Trump could say to him... go fix the border ... go reduce inflation... Fix gas prices... drill baby drill... whatever... Because of his executive skills he'll be able to do it.

    I think with a 4 year apprenticeship with his current resume he'll be ready to take the America First agenda an additional 8 years. By the end of 12 years we'll be able to put more constitutional judges to the Supreme Court and purge the deep state.

    That's it...

    There's a BIG difference between someone who EARNED his millions, and someone who inherited it - or got it through illegal means.

    But the Propaganda Ministry wants people to think that the millionaires who EARNED their money are the evil ones.

    And there we have the major difference between the two byptes of billionaires.

    Those who EARNED their billions did so by creating things - things that made the lives of people better.

    Those who inherited their billions (or got them illegally) didn't EARN them and don't have a "create" mentality. They have a "control" mentality.

    Tucker Carlson pointed this out and it hit a chord with me. A person like Trump doesn't worry much about losing his wealth. He created it, so if he loses it, he will just create more.

    But a Biden-type didn't create his wealth. So he is terrified of losing it, and so he must control everything/one in order to "protect" his wealth.
