When facing an unpredictable opponent like Trump, the key isn’t to fight him on his terms but to stay vigilant, focused, and strategic. Just like a martial artist facing a wild fighter, his opponents must remain alert, adaptable, and aware of everything happening around them. Instead of getting caught off guard by his chaotic attacks, they need to study his patterns, anticipate moments of weakness, and strike with precision when the opportunity presents itself. Reacting emotionally or haphazardly only plays into his game—discipline, patience, and a well-timed counterattack are the best ways to neutralize his advantage.

Too bad the Dems didn't read your post. They did everything you caution against and then some. It's no wonder they were able to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

The DEMS were infiltrated by dirty consultants. Some have now self-identified. Though, we in the grassroots, knew. And, told them. They got cocktail party deafness. We the People of the GRASSROOTs are doing democracy without the DNC now.

Musk is already responsible for two dead people. Some lady over seas and a boy in Wisconsin. Lady overse got her oxygen cut off and the kid from Wisconsin had his inhalers go from 69.00 to 500.00. That was another United healthcare thing but it was because of Elon and his crap. People are dying. I’m thinking it’s over ten aircraft crashes since they cancelled the freaking FFA.

My grandson graduated college with a chemistry degree. The Saturday before he was starting his new job, in his field, he went to the ER. He was in renal failure. Devon was in ICU 8 days and almost died. He had no insurance but he did qualify for medicaid. He's on kidney dialysis 3 days a week 4-5 hours per day. He can't work and needs a kidney transplant. If they cut medicaid he'll die. Devon has a rare blood disease. There are millions of people in similar situations. Millions will die if they cut medicaid and Medicare.

Wishing your grandson the very best - nobody should be in peril from these monsters ! The health situation in the US is a disgrace compared with most European countries where you would not have this problem - free health care is the only fair way since nobody knows who will need expensive treatments next !

Hold on. "[W]e have our own brains and free will to vote how we want." Okay so far. Many people WANTED to vote for Trump and enough of them did so that now he's Pres. How is that not using their brains? Perhaps the people who voted for Trump have different values than you do and felt Trump was the best choice. However repugnant those values might be, at least on November 5, 2024, this was still a free country and people were allowed to vote as they wanted. I'm truly appalled that so many people voted for Trump, but it was their right to do so. Deluded, maybe. Voting against their own interests, probably. Free to vote as they wanted, absolutely.

My daughter in law Deidra was intubated for 11 days due to an infection from a dental emergency. We didn't know if she was going to survive the whole time. When they tried to wake her the 1st time she was combative and had to be restrained. It was terrible we couldn't be with her. It took 2 more times to get her cooperation, it was hard and she was in the hospital another 9 days. She gets her pic line out today, all done with the antibiotics she went in on January 4th it's February 14th. It's been a long hard road. She's always had an eating disorder she was 83 pounds now 102. She's got PTSD from the experience and a long recovery ahead. I hope your son gets the kidney he deserves to live a long fulfilling life. Please take time for self care it's important not to neglect yourself at this time, self care is simple things like a bubble bath, Mani Pedi, a drink if you do, little moments to yourself even if you have to lock yourself in a closet or pantry, the car, music or read a book just a page or 2. I'm sending you healing prayers and hugs good vibes for your support, Susie Jones MTN moderator

This breaks my heart. Have you been able to find a donor? I’m going to do what I can to get on a list to be live donor match for folks who are going through this. Hopefully I’m not too old. Keeping you in my thoughts. Folks we need MCARE MCAID SNAP TO BE THE HILL WE DIE ON AND SHOW UP IN NUMBERS! I can’t let this go! I miss my mom terribly and I’m grieving for her still, however, I am so damn thankful her sweet, sweet heart doesn’t have to go through this.

Trump is a coward. This Pete guy is useless as tuts on a boar hog. There’s no negotiation. There’s what the Putin ahole wants. People don’t get this. They think this is another day on the farm. People have died. Russia has their back against the wall. But Trump is ready to hand Ukraine over as a gift 💝. Just like Gaza. The new Trumpland of the middleast.

What I find curious is WTF tRUMPy has to do with negotiations between Ukraine & Russia. Especially since Putin & him are not even including P.Zelinsky in negotiations concerning HIS own country...NOT tRUMPs. So Putin's Poodle (trump) wants to hand everything over to Russia, including ALL land they have acquired + guarantee that Ukraine will NEVER join NATO + who knows what else. Meanwhile he doesn't seem to require anything from putin in return. Russia State TV is having a field day laughing their a**es off at how putin has control of trump & soon the US. Frightening that we basically have to wait till mid-terms to take back both houses of Congress to try & right some of the wrongs done by tRUMP, his criminal circus in admin., & his spineless coward gop's in Congress, pretty much because none of them will vote against anything tRUMP.

Too bad there aren't more R's with the guts to stand up to that Orange Traitor like Adam K. & Liz Cheney. I may not have always agreed with their policies, but I respected them.

Peg's avatar

Exactly. And while Urkaine has to agree to not being a part of NATO, Russia doesn't have to commit to never invading Ukraine again. Yeah, that's why they can't be in NATO cause it would f up all Putin's plans

Totally agree about Kinzinger and Chaney. Never agree with one policy of theirs ...didn't like Dick either...but i respect them to the max

Yes, I do. I'm sure you can think of a few people who were killed because they disagreed with the President letting a gang of domestic terrorists overrun the Capitol on January 6, 2021. If you don't consider "our government" to be that of the person in the office of the President, maybe not.

Adam, I hope you read the comments. You and Liz are my favorite Republicans. 50% of Americans do not support Trump. Please know that 68.22% of US voters did not vote for Trump. 31.78% voted for him. 30.84% voted for Harris. 1.06 voted for others, and 36.33% did not vote. So it's accurate to say that less than 1/3 of the voted for him.

We saw Trump’s “negotiating” style with the Gaza ceasefire. He wanted to say he got hostages released during his inauguration speech so he screamed there would be “hell on earth” if Hamas didn’t do what he wanted Hamas told him to jump in a lake so he pressured Israel into a lopsided agreement. He has no idea what he’s doing.
