    How is pointing out the fact that you are using initial reactions of Russian collusion from 2016 as evidence of collusion changing the subject? You do realize that the investigation, or coup attempt, failed, right? You're also refusing to address my other two concerns.

    You're as dishonest as your political liar hero.

    The Senate Intelligence Committee report is a 1,000 page document produced by said Republican-controlled committee.

    Now quit tap-dancing around the fact that you tried to present the mistruth that that is a "hoax". Most people call that lying.

    Yeah, your traitor is pretty incompetent. We saw that from his first four years in office too.

    Present your research on those concerns, since you're just dodging the fact that you got called out on your attempt to lie that the Trump campaign's collusion with Russia was a hoax.

    I'll read the research you bring forth. Hop to it.

    My God, I finally found someone with the balls, or enough ignorance, to publicly state that Russian collusion was real. Someone who believes that the FBI did the right thing by presenting a dossier to the FISA court that they knew was phony and was created by Trump's competition, Hillary. Actions which led to a 4 year, $32 million investigation into nothing. Wow.

    Factory jobs are largely engineering jobs and will increasingly become so. Most "blue collar work" now requires at minimum trade school. Economic lessons are about to be learned by all when AI replaces process-based office work. As US education continues to degrade, we will continue losing our edge to our adversaries. Anti-immigration policies will further hurt the US tech companies by reducing our access to high quality candidates which the US is dependent on due to a crumbling education system. High tariffs will cause trade wars that we will lose (check out the electric car market).

    Inadequate leadership has serious consequences.

    I was a software engineer. Math minor. Worked with Electrical/Computer engineers. I can assure you practically NO factory jobs are “engineering” jobs, and most factory line jobs don’t require trade school degrees. You’re just plain wrong

    Always been a pet peeve of mine, calling yourself an “engineer.” Buddy of mine buried fiber with a backhoe and called himself a “telecommunications engineer.” Garbage men are now “sanitation engineers.” Want to be a real engineer? Take advanced engineering classes and two years minimum higher mathematics.

    I stated out with a tech school degree and trust me, I was no engineer.

    Want to be an engineer, pass the professional engineer test and get your license. Illegal to call yourself an engineer otherwise.

    You mean the Republican Senate Intelligence Committee? Their report has been around for years. It just seems apparent that you avoid the truth and consume alternative facts.

    Ya know, finding other people, or a demagogue, who believe the same mistruths as you do does not make those mistruths true.

    You honestly believe those numbers? I guess you also believed Biden was sharp as a tack until June lol. Some people believe anything they read.

    Factory jobs are increasingly robotic process lines requiring mechanical engineers more than people assembling goods. Sure, there are people there for now doing the stuff that isn't cost effective to automate. But just a matter of time in most production facilities with advanced robotics advancing rapidly and reaching economies of scale.

    I think the Star of the 2024 Election has to be JD Vance.

    Kimmel said it well

    Jimmy Kimmel chokes back tears as he says election marked ‘terrible night’ for everyone

    “Let’s be honest, it was a terrible night last night,” Kimmel, a long-time Democrat, said. “It was a terrible night for women, for children, for hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants who make this go, um…” he paused, choking back tears and taking a brief pause.

    “For healthcare, for our climate, for our climate, for science, for journalism, for justice, for free speech,” Kimmel continued. “It was a terrible night for poor people, for the middle class, for seniors who rely on social security, for our allies in Ukraine…,” Kimmel added, once again tearing up.

    “For NATO,” he continued, regaining his composure. “For the truth and democracy and decent and it was a terrible night for everyone who voted against him.” Kimmel also argued that it was even a “disaster” for Trump’s most fierce MAGA supporters. “Guess what? It was a bad night for everyone who voted for him too – you just don’t realize it yet,” he added, to applause from the studio audience.

    There were, however, some beneficiaries of Trump’s win, Kimmel said, pointing to dictators, some of the world’s wealthiest people and Trump’s prospective head of healthcare Robert F Kennedy Jr. “But it was a really good night for [Vladimir] Putin and polio and the lovable billionaires like Elon Musk and the bros up in Silicon Valley and all the wriggling brainworms who sold what was left of their souls to bow down to Donald Trump,” he said.

    When a leader of the democrat party speaks. Maybe Madonna will be next to make a public announcement. And the democrats wonder why they are losing.
