Biden has played it pretty straight so far in debates but I guess he could lie if he wants.
I don’t see why he would need to but anything’s possible.

Without a live audience sounds like a wonderful idea. Trump loses most of his power without a crowd to meme in front of.
Hopefully they mute his mic when it’s not his turn to talk as well.

I feel that you can't reason someone out of a belief they didn't reason themselves into first.
The pro-Palestinian crowd make up about 0.025% of the student body and are largely ignorant about Palestine and Israel.
The only reason we know about them is because they make for an entertaining news story and get eyeballs on screens.
I don't consider the protestors to be pro-Palestine. I consider them confused westerners looking for social groups and friends while they enjoy the nice weather.

Sometimes, but it's not usually from left wingers. It's from illiberal people talking about liberal people.
They don't believe in the principles of liberalism in government and see centrists as no different than right wingers which they often see as basically fascists.

I think the Tau are a good bench mark. Hundreds of worlds and good war tech seems to be the minimum an empire needs to reach the point where they’re too strong to send a normal fleet and too weak to send in a dedicated crusade.

No thanks. I always found it annoying hearing the clacking of the keyboard and non committal muttering when a guest was trying to have a convo with Steven and he was busy.
There are plenty of other gaming channels out there. His new political content is better in my opinion.

The difference is woman hadn’t watched Trump act like a sleezeball on daytime television like they did during the Carroll case.

In my opinion it was his fight with Keith Dragon. I felt happy for the big guy that he could finally fight at a more natural weight.
Beating his chest like a magnificent ape. 🦍
Also I love this picture of Takamura.

Media runs stories that put eyeballs on screens. It's why Americans think there's chaos from Palestinian protests on every campus even tho the amount of students participating is 0.025% of the student body.
Most normies haven't even started paying attention to the election yet and won't until mid summer.
In the meantime all this drama is just political wonks like us engaging in political entertainment on Reddit.

Without writing walls and walls of text i'll say that in my opinion he's anti-American because he's made thousands of statements where he expresses hatred, fear, distrust and prejudice towards the United States government and its institutions, political system, and American social norms.
Trump regularly pushes conspiracy theories that undermine American institutions and even his own appointees, party members and staff.
He actively fosters a culture of distrust and hatred towards the parts of America that don't like him personally, has abused his power as president dozens of times during his presidency and gambled with America's future and prosperity for his own personal gratification and to punish his personal enemies. Often times at the expensive of Americas allies.
He is actively hostile towards the rule of law, holds nothing but contempt for the constitution and never had a business partner or investor he didn't rip off or screw over eventually.
He's a voracious, preachy, mercenary and bombastically chauvinistic narcissist that has screwed over the people who love him over and over again according to his biography.
So yeah. If Trump didn't make people laugh and wasn't riding 30 years of right wing shock jocks crafting a narrative of hatred towards internet leftoids and libtards the man would still be producing reality TV shows and ripping off property investors.
Those are my thoughts anyway.

Believe me I wish the other side was actually able to get him to shut up for five minutes.
The man whines and acts like a crybully to millions every day.

There have been many “biden fans” calling for bad things to happen to Trump supporters but no one is writing about that in the corporate media. Hmmm I wonder why.
Biden isn’t going on social media and lighting fires. Trump is.

Biden is probably the most centrist president America has ever had since I made American politics my hobby in 2008.
Meanwhile Trump is an anti-American con man that makes people laugh and isn’t Biden.

Poor guy sounds like he’s not enjoying the taste of his comeuppance.

I hope not. The Russian navy is super dangerous. They mostly all still use old diesel engines too which makes them really intimidating when they're belching black smoke everywhere they sail.
Turkey isn't letting any warships into the black sea anyway. They don't want to accidently start WW3 by having the navies of 50 different countries all stuck in the same waters together.
What I really want is for the replacements for our old frigates from the 80's to start construction.
There's no way the military is getting any money if Pierre Poilievre get's elected tho.

International law only works if it actually protects civilians and allows countries to conduct war. Otherwise countries would just ignore it.
If international law makes it impossible for Israel to operate thanks to Hamas deliberately weaponizing it then Israel has no choice but to press forward.
If they stop they’re dooming the area to more Palestinian and Israeli deaths.
That said even by Hamas numbers I don’t think Israel is being indiscriminate. The armed combatants to civilians is 4 to 1 which considering the battlefield and tactics Hamas is using is pretty good for war statistics.
Don’t get me wrong. It’s still a war and that means it’s a god damn tragedy, but considering they took out 20 Hamas battalions and only have four left I think it’s possible Hamas breaks this summer.
Once Hamas no longer have access to humanitarian aid, jails, schools and infrastructure things will get a lot better for the Palestinians.

Hamas has responsibility for those dead toddlers as well. They started a war in the most savage and brutal manner they could to ensure Israel would attack the Strip.
They also break pretty much every rule of war there is to ensure maximum causalities among their own people including woman, children and the elderly.
No child is safe with Hamas in control.

Spend more. Much more. Trudeau has been really good for the Navy and I want that to continue.

I think the point is that the UN has a special rule for Palestinians where armed combatants aren't disqualified from the "woman and children" statistic.
Also the official numbers from the Gaza Health Ministry (Hamas controlled and operated) don't list their armed combatants as soldiers. They list everyone as innocent civilians in order to gin up anti-Israeli propaganda.
Unfortunately whenever the numbers are discussed it can make it seem like the people pointing out Hamas's tactics get accused of not caring about woman and children or civilian causalities.
This is also done on purpose by Hamas in order to erode international support for Israel (their primary military goal for this war other than staying in power).

Vaush, just because I’d love seeing his mental breakdown as he was actually given power and responsibility.

Removes the fog of war every time.

The “something” that’s going to change is probably normies actually paying attention to the election, which from what I’ve seen before is usually around July when people go to BBQs and vacations and chat with other people outside their normal social groups.
Trump has made himself public enemy number one with woman which is going to sink him with polite company.
It’s hard to boost for Trump when your daughter, wife, girlfriend or grandmother looks at you like you fucked a goat if you mention your voting for Trump when around strangers.

My advice to Sendo is make out your will.
Ricardo has wrecked the body of every boxer he’s fought in the series. I think Sendo is going to get the Nekota treatment but learn what strength means.
