Abdul is VERY good at this. Straight to the point, great communicator, doesn’t pull punches, goes straight after tRump and his minions. He does remind me of Obama a lot.

Anonymous's avatar

He learned from Obama that being too cerebral can be a mistake when dealing with the likes of tRump. Abdul is not pulling any punches.

Terry24x's avatar

And he is offering his constituents concrete change. He reminds me of my mayor, Mandami, nd not because they are both Muslim.

LHS's avatar

And his retort to Trump's "full of 💩" insult had me laughing out loud!

MTN has been walking a tightrop on AIPAC for a long time......not wanttng to rufflle Jeffries and Schumers feathers

The time is up!!!! NATO, Gulf states and non-Maga Americans want nothing to do with the Iran war......AIPAC will do everything possible to keep the US/Israel alliance at war.

Make room for more progressive Dems that will put the USA back on track

My biggest fear when I first heard of Biden's illness that he would pass while Trump is in office. I certainly hope he doesn't. He's in my thoughts. 😢

ramonaj's avatar

I am at a loss for words to cover how to tell the whole Biden family how sorry I am for the pain you all continue to endure. It is not explainable

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

I know the feeling. Heartbreaking.

Paul Kaufman's avatar

Based on my medical experience it’s very unlikely that Joe will live longer than the evil regime.

LHS's avatar

Correct. Once it is in the bones, time is usually short. I'm sure he's getting the best care, the latest treatments, etc. But I do not expect him to outlive Trump's 4 years. I would love to be wrong about that. But I also do not want him to live in miserable pain. Bone metastases are very painful.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

I thought that might be the case. Thanks for confirming, Paul.

Katherine Brevik's avatar

Same. Sending prayers to the Biden family. A good man and his accomplishments (most important of which was bringing our country back from the horrors of Covid) incessantly lied about by the lying fascists currently in power.

I too fear for Biden dying when the orange menace is still in WH.

Trump likely won’t lower flags.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

Trump and his regime will pull out all kinds of hatred. Sickening.

LHS's avatar

If he says he is glad Biden is dead, I think I will lose it.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

I will too. I will not be able to take all the hate. I'm going to be sad and livid.

WJB Motown's avatar

The Orange dipshit is going to say it.......remember his a narcissit and feeds off attention........give him nothing!! His words are nothing but verbal shit to be flushed immidiatly down the toilet!!!

Deb Zim's avatar

I too have that same fear. Since we all know the felon is an a** and will treat Biden like sh** even in death.

ramonaj's avatar

Joe Biden should not be overshadowed by what a waste of life like DumOld is going to say.

Who cares what he thinks.

Stop making him think he is the center of the universe. He loves it.

Sarah's avatar

Trump gleefully desecrates any person (and anything) that is respected, cherished, and/or decent in this country; we all know how vulgar and appalling he will be if Joe Biden dies while Trump is in office😣. It hurts to even think about.

However, I am confident of one thing:

If we lose Joe while Trump is president, the moment the revolting words come oozing out of Trump’s pie hole (or that Trump shits out on Truth Social), one man will answer from deep, deep in his soul:

Hunter Biden is going to summon every ounce of his love for his father, he will take a deep breath, shoot his cuffs, and he will (to borrow from Pulp Fiction) “strike down upon Trump with great vengeance and furious anger, the pathetic excuse for a man who attempts to poison and destroy his dad.”

Good on Mamdani for reminding everyone of what the Democrat party used to be under FDR. We have moved so far Right in this country we don't even realize it, and I'm thankful for the public reminder. I have been trying to express this myself, on every possible platform, and it's time for everyone to do the same. These candidates are wonderful, intelligent, on target, and giving us all something to vote FOR, rather than just voting against the fascist party that now defines the GOP.

“I want to make the main point clear: as long as I am PM, there will be no Palestinian state - not in Gaza and not in the West Bank. Not under Fatah and not under Hamas.”

Says the war criminal who has been enabled by our government and our tax dollars. Your day will come just as Trump and Putin's day will come as well. 🖕

JohnC-Va's avatar

I despise that war criminal almost as much as I despise Ol’ Baldy. Almost.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

Me too. I think I may hate them both equally.

Paul Kaufman's avatar

I can’t imagine ever hating anyone as much as I hate Trump. It bothers me just how much I hate the asshole. Nixon and the Bushes are not even close. And they were pretty bad.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

Right?! I can't hate Nixon because I was a small child at the time but I did hate the Bushes but not like Trump. They don't even come close to this fucker.

Tigerlilley's avatar

They have a parallel objective. Themselves.

Linda Harris's avatar

Let him and Ben Givr continue on with their genocide and war, but not with US materiel. Cut Israel off now. If we are running low on munitions, how can they not be?

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

That would be nice to cut Israel off but I honestly don't see that happening. Sad but true.

Linda Harris's avatar

Not so sure of that come January 2027. People are really voting against money to Israel

I bet the only time Tim Scott’s whole name gets used is when he’s in trouble with his Mom.

I wish Trump and the republicans would keep Joe Biden's name out of their filthy mouths!

The MAGA DEATH CULT needs to deflect.....demean...degrade others in order to cover up their demonic, bottomfeeding dispicable existance.

Deb Chrystal's avatar

Golden pigs will fly before my husband speaks or votes for me!!

Abdul is a good speaker and doesn’t let others remarks cause him to sink to their level!!

Sharon German's avatar

I f***ing LOVE El-Sayed...His response comment regarding being 'full of shit' was pure gold! Also, his answer to Traitor-Ass-Trump's comparison of the TWO Americas is SPOT ON...I'll gladly take the GOOD muslims over the PUTRID AND PURE EVIL white christian nationalists!!! What the hell is wrong with Americans that could choose the nightmare we're all living in over a progressive government that actually WORKS FOR THE PEOPLE rather than the Trumpstein class of PEDOs??? Racist f***ing morons!!!

Oaktown's avatar

I oppose both the Christian Taliban and the Muslim Taliban.

Sharon German's avatar

We’re atheists…what’s your point? I don’t give a damn what anyone’s religion is, as long as they don’t pass laws based on ANY religion. We judge people by their words and deeds, not by any other factors…

Oaktown's avatar

My point was that the "Christian" nationalists are just as ruthlessly dogmatic as the Muslim Taliban, whom they consider their mortal enemies.

You mentioned "good" Muslims, but didn't define what you meant by it, and there are a lot of Muslims who are violent, intolerant of anyone who opposes them, and are all in for jihad. Ali Soufan, a Muslim born in Lebanon, wrote an eye-opening book on jihadists and Muslim terrorists in his book "The Black Banners (Declassified): How Torture Derailed the War on Terror after 9/11."

Sharon German's avatar

I was merely saying that any GOOD people, regardless of their religion, are always a better choice than EVIL people, regardless of their religion. I’ve listened to him speak and I like what he has to say… I believe he’s one of the good guys.

Oaktown's avatar

I also like what he has to say and am hoping he is one of the good guys. Thx for clarifying what you meant.

Joanne Gatsis's avatar

I would love to see AOC run against Chuck Schumer!! 😃 Schumer needs to take his AIPAC money and fuck off.

sheryl jeffries's avatar

I think Trump’s house of cards has fallen down due to his corruption.

I really hope Biden makes it out of Trump’s term.

Oaktown's avatar

... and Trump doesn't make it out of this term.

Paul Kaufman's avatar

If I had to choose it would Trump not making it

ramonaj's avatar

Without hesitation.

Old Uncle Dave's avatar

Every morning when I wake the computer, I hope to read of his demise..

ramonaj's avatar

Very good point Oak .

Bartiromo: Things are good for the CEOs....snort. What a maroon.

Bob's avatar

I don’t think CNBC hired her for her smarts.

Leah Karotkin's avatar

She’s on Fox Business. Even worse.

ramonaj's avatar

The Guardian report on the oil drilling in Greenland. That is how this asshole starts. Drop off the equipment . Drill illegally. By the time anyone realizes it, it's too late to stop. Do not let him continue to "start" anything new. Anywhere. Just work on stopping this criminal demented greedy pig 🐖

Paul Kaufman's avatar

I hope that Greenland kicks out and permanently bans that company.

ramonaj's avatar

Yes because the clown has already marked his territory . Already putting things in motion. I can't be the only one who sees Grandpa Dementos patterns. They will never stop. Get out in front of it for fxxk sake.

Leslie Tremaine's avatar

Yes. We need to be careful that trump doesn’t start marking, what he thinks is his territory, like make dogs do.

Old Uncle Dave's avatar

Any equipment dropped off should be seized by the authorities,

Loved Miller's closing remark: "That's all you got?"

colo-ski's avatar

Yeah, that was quite a while ago, but it was great

colo-ski's avatar

“Trump says you’re full of shit. Abdul El-Sayed: At least I don’t let mine go in the middle of the Oval Office.”

That is a perfect ten response.

I'm not a 100% sold on. D. S.A. yet, but I'm getting much closer.

I'm not even sure if he calls himself a social democrat or democratic Socialist, but he definitely knows how to speak.

Unlike almost anybody in the Republican party at this point

Oaktown's avatar

El-Sayed is so much smarter than anyone in MAGAworld. I think the Dems should shun labels like DSA and "socialist," and instead pivot to what the Dems stand for on the ISSUES whenever asked if they agree with the DSA "platform," which is absurd and strategically unwise. Another answer I'd like to see when Dems are asked such questions: "Define 'socialist.' " I think it would leave your average maggot speechless because they don't know what it means.

colo-ski's avatar

Especially after that ding bat meghan romer went on fox news and basically sounded like a pure communist, and she's a co chair of the DSA

Oaktown's avatar

She really has got to go; she has zero political savvy or social intelligence, to put it mildly.

Paul Kaufman's avatar

That was pretty bad. She was poorly prepared for the interview.

Oaktown's avatar

Half their "platform" is batshit crazy too; it needs some serious revision.

Robot Bender's avatar

It's about time someone threw Trump's shit right back in his face.

Old Uncle Dave's avatar

I'd like to see "FDR Democrats catch on.

Paul Kaufman's avatar

My understanding is that he’s not a DSA member and that he doesn’t hold any extreme views. Socialist policies are probably supported by the large majority of this forum.

Oaktown's avatar

But they should not be framed as "socialist" policies, which is nothing but a trigger word for the Red party. They should be referred to as specific policies needed to address all the bipartisan issues most voters support: data center regulation/moratoriums, AI, social media and crypto regulation, affordable health care for all, tax the rich, bust up the monopolies, incentives to promote affordable housing, clean water, lower utility bills, clean energy, etc.

Paul Kaufman's avatar

I agree. We need to be careful about the jargon.

colo-ski's avatar

I agree. Since they've used labels, non-stop for years to insult every single person they come across. So we should pick benign, bland sort of terms to describe our action's desires and goals Associations et cetera.

“Instead, Democrats involved in the planning envision using House investigative powers after Nov’s midterm elections to scrutinize the admin’s decision-making and examine whether Trump used his power to benefit himself, allies or donors.” Now that’s getting a smarter strategy. It’s so disgusting how much this Tyrant and his peeps have made off his being in office 👹. Lock ‘em up!!! I am so sad about Joe Biden. How awful that they could have caught this early if only they had not adhered to no checking for it after age 70. Prostate cancer is so common and with much higher cure rates now. Men need to insist on being checked yearly no matter if you’re 70 plus. Thanks, Ron, for another great informative weekend bulletin!!! 😎

Catherine Maddux's avatar

Ron: who was the reporter who asked this question? "Q - Trump says you’re full of shit." Do you recall?

Was a reporter for a long time. I'd never ask a q that way. Or I'd make clear it was a direct quote from Trump.

Tacky!

JohnC-Va's avatar

Worse than tacky. He, I’m guessing it’s a he, a woman is too smart than to ask something as stupid and indecent as that, wouldn’t have phrased it that way if interviewing a white so-called christian Democrat.

That is one thing I did see. It was weird. The guy was walking close and El-Sayed was hanging on like it was at a sporting event 🤨looked off . He sounded British.

Bob's avatar

Newsmax reporter.

That he would dignify one of Trump’s nasty remarks that way tells you what sort of reporter he is: bush league.
