Disgusting corrupt Pigs Judge Engoron and Letitia James, get their asses handed to them on a platter, and with Letitia James that would be 1 Gigantic Platter!

I don't think James is dodging at all.  He is simply not letting you change the subject.  

I'm not James though - so I'll play along with your subject change.  Yes, I believe (as a matter of political opinion based upon press accounts, not as a matter of legal fact) that Bill Clinton is all of the things you list above.

Why is this important for any of our conversations?   I seriously do not understand why you are asking James about Clinton's morality.

Here is the 2nd FALSE accusation you made about me:

James B:  I'll play along with your subject change. 

Both of those of course are FALSE accusations on your part.

So can you defend those lies about me?

James's first response to me did NOT touch the subject matter at all, which was MY posting about the corrupt Democrats Letitia James and Judge Engoron.   

James L said:  

So what? It's not like this changes who Trump is and what he's done.  He's still a fraudster who exaggerated his wealth for decades. And he's a rapist, a sexual predator, and a serial adulterer. We all heard him boast about being able to sexually assault women without consequence. We've all heard him repeatedly sexualize children, even his daughter. We know for a fact that he defrauded his charity for political purposes. He lies about literally everything and never takes responsibility for anything. He is a profoundly broken and flawed person. So, again, so what? This ruling doesn't erase Trump's well-documented history of fraud, predatory behavior, and habitual lying, and these facts aren't speculation; they come from court rulings, settlements, and Trump's own words and actions.


So then I will challenge YOU OUR resident RINO and Trump hater w/ massive TDS to support the lies you wrote about me, with evidence.

You do Know what evidence is don't you?  After all, you are a retired Lawyer are you not?  smile
This is the second of two long replies you posted to my comment.  In neither reply did you touch on Bill Clinton's morality, even after I basically agreed with you.  Also, in neither reply did you tell me why Bill Clinton's morality has anything to do with Trump, Letitia James, Engoron or the other people being discussed in this thread.  Therefore, I've concluded that the Bill Clinton comments you posted above are indeed simply a dodge and distraction to help you hide and avoid answering James.  Not surprising.

Instead of replying to my input above, you somehow turned my comments into a highly triggered pity party for yourself, claiming I posted multiple lies about you.  Lies?  Ha, I don't think that word means what you think it means.  Anyway, it is obvious you are feeling owned by James and Jim M., since you posted a flurry of gibberish new threads to bury this one.   Jim

p.s. You all changed the subject a couple of times in this thread!  Nothing wrong with that, I think you and James both have noted that threads morph all the time. 

In this case, I think it is obvious truth (therefore, not a lie) that you changed the subject to Clinton once James had you boxed in on Trump's immorality.  No worries, trying to change the subject to get out of a fix is not dishonorable, it's just that you're not very good at it.  Like when you laughably tried to change the subject to one of your favorites; "poor Richard is being persecuted" by accusing me of lying about you!  That is classic comedy stuff!

You cannot complete, for example,  Engineering Physics, Circuit Analysis, or DSP without that knowledge. This contradiction exposes his claim as false. And while he says his academic background doesn’t matter regarding his participation here, it absolutely does, because for years he’s dismissed others as less intelligent or less ethical. Misrepresenting one’s degree isn’t just dishonest; it’s academic stolen valor, and it undermines every argument he makes here. Rich would love nothing more than for his fraud and lies to fade quietly into the background.
Hi James:  Thanks for the clarification, I have been out of town helping my parents for the last several days and only read the most recent posts.  I thought Brian conclusively proved Richard had no engineering degree, about three or four years ago, in the massive Covid thread.  Didn't Richard admit way back then that he had some coursework, but no degree, or was it an associate's degree?  My memory could be wrong.

Not that there is anything wrong with an associate's degree.   A lot of good career opportunities.  I am a huge fan of the community college/associates degree programs.

Of course it is insight into Richard's character that he claims a BME degree he does not have.  For all the reasons you note above.

Tim Walz body shames Trump by saying "May his fat ankles find something". and according to One radical leftist here, Body shaming like that is a pathetic way to attack someone

On the other hand, no one should miss the irony that Trump is simply facing the same kind of criticism he has often directed at others. In many ways, he is reaping the consequences of his own actions. So, I disapprove of Walz's rhetoric, but I can't feel sorry for Trump either.
Indeed, I think Washington DC may be reaching peak irony. 

I watched a few minutes of Rod's original David Pakman link.  Pakman's premise (delivered with a tone of fake concern) is that Trump is seriously unwell, and wait for it, the White House is concealing this from the public.   Holy cow!  Does Pakman have no shame or sense of irony?  The Biden administration and a compliant press corps lied to the public for years about Biden's dementia.  This, along with truly ill-conceived lawfare plus a crummy economy, cost the Democrats all branches of the government.  The coverup of Biden's dementia, and the Democrat's decision to run him in 2024, (until it was far too late), should go down as one of the great political lies and great political face plants of this century.

Asked AI:

"Swollen ankles are typically caused by fluid retention (edema), which can result from prolonged standing or sitting, pregnancy, eating too much salt, obesity, or certain medications. Other potential causes include injuries, infection, chronic venous insufficiency, and serious conditions like heart, kidney, or liver disease, or a blood clot. You can help reduce mild swelling by elevating your feet, exercising, wearing compression stockings, and reducing your salt intake. Consult a doctor if you experience sudden, severe, or persistent swelling, especially if it's on one side, or if you also have chest pain or shortness of breath."

More Serious Causes

Blood Clots: Swelling in one leg, especially with redness and warmth, can signal a blood clot and requires immediate medical attention. 

Venous Insufficiency: Weakened valves in the leg veins can lead to blood pooling and fluid leaking into tissues. 

Organ Problems: Heart, kidney, or liver disease can cause generalized fluid retention leading to swollen ankles. 


If it was Biden you'd be calling for the undertaker.
Seriously?  If it was Biden the White House, CNN, AP, the NYT, WaPo, ABC, NBC, CBS, and NPR would all be providing cover for the president's mental decline... a decline surely well known to them.   Sure, Fox would be calling for the undertaker, but no one but Fox viewers would get the memo, or have any idea that Biden's mental capacity to be president had long since sailed.  Until it was far too late of course.  Directly causing (among other things) DJT to take the White House.  

In the Biden case, the result of the cover up is far worse than a smidgen of timely honesty would have been.

You're right, I don't watch CNN, (except on election night or when there is a huge news event).  But how did the D's screw up so badly as to not contest Biden's nomination at all?  All the insiders surely knew he had mentally lost it.  I think they must have assumed he could be propped up enough in his few public appearances/debates to coast to election.  Remember Jean-Pierre's allegations of "deep fakes"?  Boy, were they wrong.   

I could be mistaken, but I do not think you, James, Jim M., or Brian had any true idea how far Biden had fallen until the debate.  If you were surprised by the debate, who hid the ball from you?  Obviously it was the White House and the press.  If I were a loyal D, I'd be pretty pissed at what the party and press did to me.

I'm actually not comparing Trump to Biden.  I would love to have Trump step down for legitimate mental or physical health reasons.  Obviously not gonna happen, Trump's ego exceeds Biden's and Biden could not do the right thing in 2022 or 2023. 

I am saying that Pakman and his faux concern over Trump's health is pretty rich irony, given the left-side press's kid glove treatment of Biden under the same or worse circumstances.

Also, if there is legit reason to question Trump's mental or physical fitness for office, I expect ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, the AP, the NYT, WaPo and NPR to be all over it.  They are not providing cover for Trump as they did for Biden.  I have no idea why you think Trump is not getting scrutiny.  I think this is an indefensible position on your part. 

Trump is a pathological liar and a pathological narcissist but he was all of that before he was elected by a majority of the EC and as you guys used to care about, by a majority of the popular vote.  I have seen no credible reporting that Trump is any more mentally or physically incompetent than the day he was elected.  To the extent he is a "would be dictator," he always was.  You Ds knew that before you ran Biden and ushered Trump into the White House.
