Trump attacks Haley for absence of her husband, who is deployed
https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/10/polit...ley/index.html

Quote:
Former President* Donald Trump used a rally in South Carolina on Saturday to attack rival Nikki Haley in her home state — and to mock the absence of her husband, who is deployed overseas.

“Where’s her husband? Oh, he’s away. … What happened to her husband? Where is he? He’s gone,” Trump said at his rally in Conway, his first visit to the state this year.

Michael Haley is deployed in Africa with the South Carolina Army National Guard in support of the United States Africa Command, his second active-duty deployment overseas.

Nikki Haley fired back at Trump’s comments later Saturday, saying, “If you mock the service of a combat veteran, you don’t deserve a driver’s license, let alone being president of the United States.”

“Donald, if you have something to say, don’t say it behind my back; get on a debate stage and say it to my face,” she told a crowd in Gilbert, South Carolina.

In a rare move, Michael Haley fired back at the former president*, posting a meme on Twitter reading, “The difference between humans and animals? Animals would never allow the dumbest ones to lead the pack,” while mentioning Trump’s account in the caption.

Trump says he would encourage Russia to ‘do whatever the hell they want' to any NATO country that doesn't pay enough

His past derogatory belittling statements referring to our Veterans were overlooked.

That what happens when you radicalize a group. Same thing as ISIS. Taliban, etc. Only difference is the GOP hasn't convinced anybody to strap on a suicide vest of explosives. Many of their voters are convinced that violence will be necessary to achieve the defeat of "their enemy" tho'.

The ‘God’s Army’ Convoy Was an Unholy Union of the Far Right

Quote:
“It took three venues to contain the breadth of far-right factions under the Take Our Border Back Convoy banner,” said Devin Burghart, president and executive director of the Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights. “The convoy marks a return to the type of movement synergy that started in the lead-up to the insurrection.”

Nikki Haley says president can't be someone who "mocks our men and women who are trying to protect America"
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/nikki-h...ce-the-nation/

As a vet, I find it impossible to believe that any other vet would vote for Donny - he's clearly a disgusting pile of dog crap.

I turned 18 the year they ended the draft, 1975. They ended it weeks before my 18th birthday. Before that and as a male minority I was resigned to the belief that in less than a year I'd be in the jungles of South-East Asia. Whereas people like tRump could use money and connections to avoid serving their country. No way in hell would I vote for someone like that. My brother, being older than I and who served, is not a tRump supporter either.

To the Republicans it's OK as long as he's smarter than their voters.

Nato chief says Donald Trump comments 'undermine all of our security'
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68269354

Having served under a NATO command for several years, I fully agree - Donny is utterly unsuited to lead anything but a dog, if even that.
