Because it's loaded up with giveaways to the Rich? The GOP wouldn't have agreed to any of it w/o that. You know it's true.
And Israel. The fundies love Israel.

I expect the majority of the former GOP will go more extreme to cater to the Trump degenerate mentality of his followers, while still calling themselves Republicans, while a much smaller amount of former Republicans may try to start a new party of sorts.I hope this is the beginning of the end of his strangle grip on the GOP. If he goes after any one them for crossing him on the they just pull the "support the troops" card.
I, I, um, I agree. So Merry Christmas!That Covid Omnibus POS should be vetoed.
And onerous new copyright laws.Because it's loaded up with giveaways to the Rich? The GOP wouldn't have agreed to any of it w/o that. You know it's true.

They love right-wing authoritarian governments. They dislike the religion and the people. Not terribly complicated.I'm always amazed that somehow the American conservative movement has managed to encompass both the "Israel at all costs" faction and the anti-semite "Jews control everything and must be stopped" faction.
You do realize the reason the love Israel is because it is one of the steps required to stay the end times. It had nothing to do with liking or supporting Jews. No the Jews are all going to hell after the rapture.I'm always amazed that somehow the American conservative movement has managed to encompass both the "Israel at all costs" faction and the anti-semite "Jews control everything and must be stopped" faction.
Yep. The Evangelicals need Israel as part of their greater rapture idealization of the future.You do realize the reason the love Israel is because it is one of the steps required to stay the end times.

The MAGAts love the military. Many of them are in it. They want it well funded.
WTF kinda alternate universe am I in when P@N is bagging on a President for vetoing the annual defense spending bill. One of the if not the most bloated spending bills that annually passes Congress and one of the most hated annual spending bills. Posts are getting thumbs up because Congress overrode the veto....what in the actual fuck is going on....
And now I'm reading a little bit of animosity because he is threating to veto the Covid relief bill. I've read so many comments by members that pissed and moaned about this bill because it didn't give enough relief to your average Americans but now it some how magically does because the President is thinking about vetoing it????

The Defense Budget may be filled with bloat, but the solution isn't to just cut it willy-nilly. The solution is to decide what our strategic positioning in the world should be, figure out what we need to do to move us in that direction, and then cut and fund as needed. But that's never going to happen, since everyone gets bogged down in the Jobs Program of the Defense Budget. Just look at all the screaming when a branch tries to retire dated weapons systems designed for the wars of the yesteryear.WTF kinda alternate universe am I in when P@N is bagging on a President for vetoing the annual defense spending bill.

He already signed the COVID relief bill, which was embedded in the Omnibus spending bill. It also seems weird to veto Bill A when you want changes in Bill B, especially when your own representative wast he one negotiating Bill B and demanded the lower value stimulus checks in the first place.And now I'm reading a little bit of animosity because he is threating to veto the Covid relief bill.

Hebrews are the chosen people of God, so Christians try to support them.
Is that why almost every civilization in history has killed and/or enslaved them...because they were God's chosen people? Chosen for what?

Lol ... There are reasons people are questioning The "I've done more for the military ever" Presidents veto. Trump doesn't care about spending and pork. He spends taxpayer funds by the dump truck loads. Trump didn't veto it because its "one of the if not the most bloated spending bills that annually passes Congress" He vetoed it because it wasn't "bloated" enough to include his toddler agenda to destroy Twitter because they are "so unfair to him" and include repeal of section 230. Trump loves his bloat if it has something in it for him and his agenda of retaliation and destruction. Repealing 230 without a plan is a bad path forward. And no plan is always Trumps plan. What will happen is most platforms will become nothing but the equivalent of fermenting bloody diarrhea aka 4chan etc. . After repealing 230, I'd assume Twitter, Facebook might not turn off the lights, but they may fire the moderation staff and let the internet go wild and try to sell as many ads as they can. Then they, and any of the other major social media sites that will have the money for lawyers to fight legal challenges. The sites that would shut down their comments would be smaller sites, like, say, this one.
Most likely though sites like YouTube will switch to studied videos, only allowing approved individuals to post at all. Sites like Twitter or Reddit would shut down, as their entire purpose is user-posted content, which they would no longer be able to host or moderate without exposing themselves to lawsuits in either direction. And who's to say that video games wouldn't be affected? Would text chat and voice chat be eliminated because game devs would be liable for anything a person posted and/or said? It's going to be easier to eliminate a potential issue rather than litigate through it.
But Dollhands Donnie is a dope, and only wants destruction.
Looks to me like maybe they tried....The Senate Dems fucked up...they COULD have at least tried to swap support for the veto override for the $2000 stimulus checks...
There's more to it. According to modern Christians with dreams of Armageddon in their heads, the nation of Israel has to be restored and the temple rebuilt in order to bring on the end times. That their dear friends the Israels will all be eradicated in these end times is a small price to pay for a front row seat to the rapture and to see all the people they don't like get tossed into the lake of fire.Hebrews are the chosen people of God, so Christians try to support them.
