Former President Donald Trump's comeback presidential campaign suffered a major setback after he was found liable of sexual abuse in a civil rape trial on Tuesday, and GOP strategists warn that its true political cost will come by next fall in what could be a tight re-match with President Joe Biden.
A New York jury deliberated for under three hours before finding in favor of columnist E. Jean Carroll, who accused Trump of raping her in the mid- 1990s and subsequently defaming her by saying she made up the accusation for publicity. The jury did not find that Trump raped Carroll, an accusation he has repeatedly denied.

I care about Trump's stance on Russia and China. Biden's is very clear, and sets the standard. If Trump can't meet the standard: Ukraine wins and we will fight China over Taiwan, then Trump is inferior to Biden.
DeSantis has already blown himself up by stating that the Ukraine War is a "territorial dispute" between the Ukraine and Russia, and questioning the US involvement...demonstrating that DeSantis is perhaps suited to be governor of an internal American state, but does not understand international affairs enough to be President.
To be President, you have to get Ukraine and Taiwan right. Otherwise, go away. DeSantis has it wrong. Trump is currently muddy. He needs to be as clear as Biden, and have the same position as Biden or stronger. If not, then Biden is inevitable choice.

Biden is a demented old bag of demons. Trump is an actor. The only "standard" either of them have is the one given to them by the WEF.
What I really want to know is why you want to genocide Slavic people and give their land to someone more deserving of it.
Who, in your estimation, is more deserving of Ukraine?

While do I want to grnocide Slavic people? I dont. The Russians are doing it. To stop the killing, the Russians simply have to pull out and go home. They would rather butcher the Ukrainians, who are - very logically - resisting them.
You puzzle me. You inability to see the obvious belies some deep issues I cannot begin to sort out.

Ukrainians win by bringing this war to an end as soon and as equitably as feasible...some sort of negotiated peace should be a primary focus, IMHO. Not sure what Trump is talking about ending the conflict in 24 hours, but I agree with his goal. Biden is simply too weak and too compromised to pull off such statesmanship, but Trump could do it. A lot can happen in the interceding 19 months, though.

I'm voting for the guy who is unequivocal about helping Ukraine beat the Russians and keeping China out of Taiwan. Biden is. Trump is not. If Trump will be, I'll vote for him.

Biden may well be dead.
I wish Trump was clearer-headed about American interests in defeating Russia, He keeps talking like the smartest guy in the room, and he's not.
But he's a damned sight better than the Democrats with their political prosecutions.
Unfortunately, I don't think Trump can actually win. I think that the combination of Democrats and Independents who have decided they hate him, and electoral fraud that was not defeated but won the argument, means he can't really win. But yeah, I'll vote for Trump.
