Wow! I have no idea how you came to the conclusion that the deaths associated with the withdrawal were due to DJT policies.

Had Biden followed DJT's withdrawal agreement, those kids would not have died when they did. That was all on Biden.

Thanks for posting that!

While I may be alone in my reasons for voting for DJT, for me it was all about the policies the competition had enacted the last four years and the campaign promises she made versus what we know DJT accomplished (with huge opposition by the Dems) during the four years he was in office. I don't care about the candidates race or gender, it's all about policies for me. The US citizens had had enough of what the Biden/Harris Administration had done to them. In this case, I didn't have to like DJT for him to get my vote.

Edited: I also believe that the vast majority of US voting citizens believe that the criminal prosecutions DJT faced were politically motivated. I don't believe DJT is an angel by any means but...........................

Yes, it was an Intervention!

I've been pretty much silent on this Forum since the election.

There is a passage in Proverbs that discourages gloating when your opposition fails.

I think it would be good if the people followed the scripture in this case.

We should all be good winners, and good losers.

I was all on board that in 2016... you won't see me gloating anywhere back then. But over the past 8 years since... I'm pissed... more than pissed.

There's no gloating here... I'm flat-out pissed. I have good reason to be... Biden destroyed so much of this country. Much of it directly affected me.

Not sure if what I've stated qualifies as "gloating" or not. I guess it depends on one's perspective. I fully admit on voting for DJT and have stated why many times, I don't consider that gloating.

Reference other posts specifically regarding RayB, call it what you may, IMHO, he's a troll. I have no regrets for anything I've posted in reference to him.

Today... I'm going to give you a big **** YOU. It's not personal, but **** YOU. I lost friends there, as I'm sure you probably did if you went to Afghanistan.



You know what dude, it really sucks to chant "**** you" at me for friends you lost in Afghanistan knowing who I am and what I've been through. Seriously, I've had some thick skin through all of our conversations, but that was shitty. I hope you enjoy the election victory, but I have no desire to speak with you about it further.

Also I didn't vote for Biden or Kamala Harris, and have told you repeatedly I've never voted for a Democrat.

You're over here chanting "**** you" at a war veteran over dead soldiers the day after Veterans Day because you were mistaken about the way they voted. Stop and think about that for a second.

None of it has seemed like gloating to me.
