The NYT still has trouble calling them "lies"... "Fact-Checking Trump’s Speech at the United Nations President Trump’s remarks about oil reserves, the drug trade and his peace efforts contained falsehoods and exaggerations." https://www. nytimes.com/2026/09/22/us/poli…

Best Christians i know go to church on holidays and otherwise just go about normally. May or May not have a basic cross necklace if they're old. Worst ones are almost always on stage, or next to it. They'll sing, play an instrument, or be a speaker. They treat the position as proof they're good, if not superior. They seek the shield it gives them…

Maybe ignore wasn’t the best word. Engage might be better. Everything he does is for attention. Watch what he does and respond accordingly but don’t engage because you are never going to change his mind or have a constructive conversation with him and the GOP.

Hasn't the world had enough of this imbecile..

Nobel Peace Prize coming up ... “I have a big decision to make,” Trump said. “Will a deal be made with Iran that lets them rebuild? Or do I annihilate the Islamic Republic? Do I drive them into hell with no chance of survival, and no hope of future greatness or generations?" https://www. rollingstone.com/politics/poli…

Maybe when he travels overseas after his presidency that he is taken into custody. I admit I liked him during his first term and part of this term, but he has fallen down trememdously. The Iran war was the breaking point for me.

We have heard it all before, a bunch of bombastic bullshit. How great our economy is, what a great country we are, we are inspiring the world, tourism is the best ever, how he can annihilate Iran 🇮🇷 at any time. The world is tired of it. He has absolutely no cards. He is an empty evil loser.

He'll come up with any excuse under the sun, but anyone who holds that person's wholly unreasonable view on this ultimately does believe Iran should give up and die quietly when another nation attacked them during negotiations.

Trump was the first president to actually threaten to target the Russians energy exports. FTFY Except that it’s not true, ofc . Not sure where your reputable sources are, but I think you might want to get their repute audited.

He made the statement at the UN. The UN! He has no understanding of the purpose of the organization.

He absolutely is on an economic level. Trump started this war to distract from the fact that his name is in the Epstein hundreds of thousands of times.

Nothing new. Iran and other nations been advocating for the annihilation of a UN member state for decades, the UN doesn't do anything about it.

Everyone in the room should have gotten up and walked out as he was taking the podium. Every single person. Kick out the press then you have no voice!
