Trump wants Canada to be the 51st state. He wants Greenland and Panama to become states. Meanwhile, he ignores our own Puerto Rico.

Puerto Rico - an unincorporated territory of the United States - has put forward a number of proposals to break away from the U.S. and realign with Spain
Part of the Puerto Rican population is now showing interest in joining the European Union by reuniting with Spain. The "Adelante Reunificacionistas" political movement, born in 2017, is gaining momentum with its audacious plan for Puerto Rico to reintegrate with Spain as its 18th autonomous community.
The founders of the movement claim that approximately 13% of Puerto Ricans support this idea, viewing it as a pathway to a more prosperous future.

TBF, 13% is far from a mandate of the PR people.
I’d bet right now, if you polled US citizens, more than 13% would be in favor of returning to English rule.
I agree with you about deploying the NG. I said on HB I didn’t agree with that. We shouldn’t have spent money on that. JUST LIKE we shouldn’t have spent money on the majority of USAID spending or other nonsense spending Leftists got in a hissy fit about stopping. They should be like me and oppose both wastes!

Okay.
But please realize, when you post an X post like that, the assumption has to be that you generally agree with the ideas expressed. It would be extremely odd for posters here to repost things they don’t generally agree with. So what was it about Bonchie’s X that prompted you to repost it here?
I’m sorry and I’m not trying to be a jerk here, but It really doesn’t take much effort to figure it out. It’s also pretty clear that no matter the response back to you, you won’t like it and argue it so the effort to explain what you can’t easily see would be wasted.

These people are truly dumb. They are the same folks that think they are owning the libs by making fools of themselves.

So, the original tweet you posted was about libtards being inconsistent about complaining about spending on drag shows etc. but they oppose spending to stop a riot (which was clearly shown to be a strawman argument). You even agreed the NG shouldn’t have been deployed by Trump. So excuse me if you can’t understand why your two posts were somewhat incongruent.
I guess the easy take away here is that you have no problem using a fabricated bulls#!t comparison as long as it ends with “You can’t parody the left.”
Thanks for clearing that up.
I knew your go to would be this which is why it’s not worth the effort. Especially when the answer to your question is in the very thread.

Sartre was talking about anti-Semites, but the quote works as well for MAGA:
Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
- Jean-Paul Sartre

I thought Trump claimed these things wouldn’t happen if he’s in office.

The silence of the generals indicates they are in full support of any and all orders, constitutional or not, given by the Narcissist-in-Chief. Their loyalty now lies with one man and not to the Constitution. Just another in a long list of examples of our fall into authoritarianism and the fact that this regime has no intent whatsoever to cede power.
