You can certainly have An opinion but spread so many falsehoods

Your only comeback is to nitpick the word "many"??? You might as well have just picked your nose because if that's your only comeback amongst all the facts presented you just made my point.

I enjoyed the post. What would the world be without the U.S.?

And why is it that some people just have to sabotage a good thread. And I'm talking about both sides.

Why is Trump such a despicable human being? Is he ... (show quote)

The answers to the questions you asked regarding Trump being worse than Biden are all "yes." I am not going to go through the list of character flaws that he has, so I just use the adjective "despicable."

Biden is in no way perfect. But he presents himself as a respectable person despite his flaws. I can't think of a single redeeming quality about Trump... not one!

The last election showed that even the majority of Americans have had enough of Trumpism. Even today, in response to Nikki Haley announcing she will run for POTUS, former Arkansas Gov Asa Hutchinson said the US has had enough of Trump and the chaos he created in the country and in the Republican Party. Sensible reasonable people are seeing the light; it is time for you to as well.

Why not add to the list June 16th, 2016 when trump was confronted with evidence of Russia interfering with our elections, Trump quickly sided with the Russians, saying that he had asked Putin and Putin denied it and that he, (Trump) didn't see any reason why Russia would, questioning our own intelligence agencies.
You can't buy patriotism like that. Unless you're buying it for Russia and the President is for sale, as I suspect Donnie Fatboy Trump was.

Poor misguided soul. Why is Trump always the first thing you think of, no matter the context nor the subject? I find it amusing to know that Trump will live in your head for the remainder of your miserable life.

Trump will probably remain in prison.
Hopefully, he'll die while incarcerated.

[quote=bcheary]---Thank you for your post. The Brits have a tendency to forget as well.Your post triggered a memory of one of my mentors who was shot down over Germany and ended up a POW. He was a bomber gunner and was tortured by the Gestapo, ending up with a metal plate in his head. He was liberated at the end of the war. As insurance brokers, we did a lot of business with Lloyds of London and on one trip a British customs guy was being extremely aggressive in searching his luggage. Bill turned to the customs officer and said: "Your peers weren't so interested in my luggage in '44." The man carefully refolded Bill's things and sent him on his way with an apology.

So, you're telling me you are not very good at putting your thoughts into words, huh? But you only know one word to use. My advice to you is you shouldn't show up in discussions like this then.

Then, I will say one word for Trump. Audacity!
How dare Trump stand at attention and salute our Flag, support our troops, honor our veterans, protect the unborn, give people second chances and take seriously his oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States!

How dare this man show up at 2:00 AM at Dover Air Force Base to welcome home hostages held in foreign lands and the remains of our fallen soldiers like Biden never did!

How dare this man develop and implement plans and programs to create the greatest most prosperous economy and standard of living in the history of mankind before or since.

You would think this man was trying to actually do things. How dare he! One would think this President was trying to provide leadership. How crass. The audacity of this man. You would think he was trying to be a leader or something.

I am not at a loss for words; rather, I am just tired of trying to convince a vacuum-head to show some signs of intelligence and integrity. You are beginning to sound like some of the other Trumpettes on this forum; I always thought better of you based on your contributions elsewhere on UHH. Oh well.

As usual, Fwankie is busily following the liberal socialist-democrat line — delivering a completely irrelevant rant about deceptive behavior that was not even related to the original post. A post that indicated the perception that Europeans (and French in particular) have a generally poor regard for actions of Americans.

Any mention of Trump in regards the original post is insulting and only denigrates those who sacrificed to protect our freedom. Including little Fwankie!
