I will jump into the fray again this week and ask a question. Did you all watch the President’s speech at Mt. Rushmore and what did you think of it?

What’s worse: far left fascism or the original Red brand Communism?

Closing up the comfort women shop to bury all the evidence.

They’re both pretty equal in my book Mr. J6Junkie.

Bolton interview with a Japanese newspaper yesterday: Trump sees all of Asia just as a balance sheet. He said “I don’t want to get involved” with Hong Kong. Trump will try to pull 10,000 troops out of South Korea. Good news for you people.

It looks like even North Korea read Bolton’s new book (lol):

“North Korea feels no need to meet with the United States for talks, a top diplomat of the reclusive nation said Saturday, accusing Washington of taking advantage of dialogue between the two countries as “a tool for grappling (with) its (own) political crisis.””

TC Tim, I watched a replay on CSPAN3 that cut off in the middle of his bit about incoln. I’d say the President believes he has a mandate to save America from the leftists.

A North Korean Defector’s Tale Shows Rotting Military – Wall Street Journal, they have a “paywall” but often, David Maxwell (check for this twitter), Foundation for Developing Democracies posts these articles. https://myemail.constantcontact.com/A-North-Korean-Defector-s-Tale-Shows-Rotting-Military.html?soid=1114009586911&aid=BMHNRbes9d4 So, some may find this story of interest in case, it was not already posted here.

J6Junkie, it can’t be any worse than the US economy with the runaway soon to hit 100,000 a day virus infection rate and race riots.

I hope the US has started building new bases to house thousands of troops and their dependents who are being withdrawn from all these countries?

Trump wants to pull out troops from S. Korea, Japan, other allies: ex-US envoy to Germany

Setnaffa – Trump has mandated himself to put government back more in the hands of the people by rooting out the Deep State, shrinking government, and lowering the burden on all Americans. The left had been out to get Trump since before he ever won the election because they saw him as a threat and someone they could not control. It started with the more moderate wing of the left going the investigation and impeachment route and when that didn’t work they called on their buddies China and Soros to unleash hell and suffering on the American people. Fortunately, plandemics cannot last forever and I believe that retribution is coming for the once powerful DemonRats.

Bolton is running around like a chicken with its head cut off. Fortunately, his time to be slaughtered for allowing information that he knew was classified to be included in his book.

J6Junkie – The ROK has been able to afford its own defense for at least the past 20 years. It’s time to take away the teat they’ve been sucking on since 1953.

The article was about food aid going to the NORKs and I was wondering how/why we continue to feed them when they have the money for firing missiles.

J6Junkie – My bad. Guess I should have read the article and not just your answer.

J6 – I retract my former message to you. I was commenting on your first comment not the one about the NORKS.

We don’t have to build new ones because Congress uses our military bases as a cash cow for their voting base, there are a whole lot of installations that have remained open which should have shut down long ago.
