I would favor trading California for Greenland, and I would even sweeten that pot with deferred payments of an extra $50 billion a year for ten years.
California for Greenland …………do it in a heartbeat.
Sounds good

President Donald Trump's plans for a wall along the US-Mexican border got a boost with Pentagon approval to divert $3.6 billion in funding from 127 other projects for that purpose. The money will supplement $1.375 billion previously approved by Congress.
And magically, there was $5 billion for a wall.
Trump at least did something good. Proved there are billions the Pentagon does not need.

Imagine that. There was suddenly $3.6 billion dollars that had been going to other defense project that are apparently not vitally important to our safety and freedom.
It's almost like we might have been spending billions more on military than was justified.
No, that can't be it.
We could cut at least 15% from every department in government today, and no one would even know it happened.
Of course the media would cry and whine as though the entire population was about to starve to death ………..but otherwise it would be unnoticeable.

That's the only smart thing you have posted in forever.
I hope you also meant the department of defense can cut 15% as well.

I believe I have seen QO say there should be defense cuts, but I might be mistaken. A 15% cut across the board is a pretty solid idea. Every side and angle will get to bitch, and then they would all look dumb after 18 months when the world doesn't end.

How could Ohio vote for a Democrat?

Ohio doesn't.....3 cities do. In 2016, urban Cleveland, Cincinnati and Columbus were blue and the rest of the state was red.

Your being outraged over the same people saying the same types of things day after day is remarkable. Instead of throwing Furby away, you get upset anew every time he cooes.

Just sit back and enjoy the irony of someone who constantly praises everything Trump does referring to another politician with words like "ignorance" and "arrogance".
As for actual praise to Orangey, saw today that Bolton's gone from his position. Good riddance, dumping off a war-mongering old cunt.

Who’s upset? I am passing along a quote from the other day that contains an astounding lack of understanding of the energy industry by someone who portrays intellectual superiority.

You "pass along" these quotes all the time with your typical comments. You are clearly upset by them or you just like typing on here for your health.
It appears that you are part of the top demographic in terms of political commentary media. Instead of ignoring this crap, you consume it heavily and get into a "God save the Republic" mindset. We get that you don't like liberals. But your efforts will not persuade anyone who is either going to vote for or vote against someone. Save yourself the misery.

Please listen to Bill Burr discuss the issue

Senate confirms 150th Trump judicial nominee...
And the once-radical 9th Circuit which had only 6 conservatives out of 29 judges, is now up to 13 conservatives ………so the days of left-wing rulings and legislating from that bench are coming to a close.
Imagine having the stones to insist every year on 9/11 that you were at ground zero despite not one person seeing you there. In fact there is more evidence pointing that you weren’t there than pointing to the fact that you were. Amazing

Maybe he was there in spirit :)
I've come to realize that Trump doesn't lie, but like Biden he tells "representative stories".
