Russia Just Invaded Ukraine

No. If you donate $1 vs. donating $27,736,272 is not the same support at all. It's not even close and to make that argument is retarded.

You are doing that retard shit again that you always, always fall back to when you are proven wrong... you are all "I know it's not comparable.. but it's really comparable"

It's not.

When did I ever say it’s the same support?

I asked if we BOTH support Trump?

Like I said, basic questions are difficult for you.

I’m just not even going to bother with you anymore.

I’ll only try once, let’s see if you can do it PB.
I’m going to ask you a yes or no question, do you think you have the brain power to answer it with a yes or a no? I’m going to assume no, but let’s give it a try.

If I donate $1 to support Trump, and you donate $27637272 to support Trump, do we both support Trump?


Since I know you are not capable of answering basic questions. I’ll answer it for you.
Yes, we both support Trump.

How much we gave Trump, aren’t comparable, but that doesn’t mean we don’t both support Trump.

I know you still didn’t get it.

I get that it’s not me that you are asking. The answer to your question is yes from your example.

But…there is an undeniable meaningful difference between say you donating $20 to a political campaign vs George Soros campaign funding for example. You may both support the Democratic Party, but you are not equal by a long shot.

Yup, that’s why I said I 100% agree with you that it’s not comparable at all, and never said it was.

I personally would lean on the side of at that time, the budget cuts did a lot of good for the economy and the country.

You can’t predict a 9/11 thing to happen almost a year after he left office. I also don’t think his military cuts had anything to do with 9/11. 9/11 was a CIA/FBI/Homeland security thing. Not a military thing in my opinion.

I generally agree. I strongly dislike Clinton for other reasons related to his policies while in office, but on that one I can agree.

Better put, we were in for a massive sticker shock upgrading our military after 9/11.

We weren’t ready for WW2 either. That’s one thing I do love about America, when the time comes, we get out shit together.
Times of peace should lower military spending, While looking back, I think his cuts were too big.

Agreed.

I think George W Bush (more so his administration vs the man as he was a pretty decent TX governor) was a worse president than Bill Clinton if that makes any difference. I like to think of myself as a conservative leaning libertarian, but the neocons of that era are not my people.

Clinton reduced our military budget. Some see that as a good thing, and for that time in history I generally agree. The budget surplus really helped to give us some good years of economic prosperity in the 90s. Some would argue that it also left us open for attack (9/11) and our military was ill-equipped when GWOT (global war on terror) kicked off.

That's a fucking retarded statement. The military has nothing to do with domestic terrorism threats, nor the lack of pre flight screening that allowed the Saudi backed branch of Al Queda to complete the 9/11 attacks. Let us not forget that they occured during the /Bush/ administration before you continue to contort history to make your moronic claims.

[Methais]

Some would say that’s a drop in the bucket as well.

Are you one of these "some"? Or are you referring to other unnamed faceless people as "some"?

I do think .5% is a drop in the bucket.
In 2020, our GDP was 21T, it’s now 26T, that 125B is just 2.5% of that difference.

If I donate $1 to support Trump, and you donate $27637272 to support Trump, do we both support Trump?

Which one supports more though?

Stop trying to downplay the obvious just because Trump hurt your feelings. It's cringe.
