[image deleted] Trump is planning to give Ukraine money too, is everyone aware of that or are my memes being blocked?

Lol!

[image deleted] Really? This makes MAGA look ridiculous. How does this meme get the top spot and one that is actually important only get 82 views?

What happens in Russia good or bad will never matter to Americans as much as what happens here at home.

Ironic that Lincoln, whom received the least percentage of the popular vote by any president ever,
is "Number One" on a74814's Experts Popularity Contest Chart,
for sending troops in to accelerate WAR in the killing fields of his own lands,
annihilating his own people.

One imagines the sense of moral superiority attained in plundering and slaughtering ones neighbors in War, then leaving grief stricken their family members to the point of demoralization,
pays better than using the eminent domain clause of the 5th amendment.

When the UK ended slavery, it used the power of the purse to coerce, and wrote checks to demonstrate that the pen and individual Property Rights are mightier than the sword.
Grant got Lee to use a pen only after Lincoln had his fill of four years of self-destruction.

Lincoln is the greatest president for preventing the Southern traitors from seceding and for freeing the slaves. Read a history book - it was the South that fired the first shots in the Civil War.

*See above, in the detailed reply the the "Red-Right Hand".
Maybe that timeline concisely in a paragraph with one source cited in support,
will help one gain a more enlightened understanding on the topic.

Then again, part of the UK didn’t try to declare independence.

Pure folly when one considers UK history, inherent challenges of always being United.

Ah, well now anyway we're getting to the brass tacks of sequential order of events.
The error made is in inferring that Secession is the beginning point of the U.S. Civil War...

Back up a bit. In reality, here is a simple, yet concise timeline paragraph to work from for you:

The Mexican/American War 1846-48 gave experience to the Officers of Note in the coming conflict, and gave training and relationship establishment while the Army Topographical Corps while they mapped out 5 routes of Railroad Tracks ordered by Jefferson Davis for the Technology of the 3rd Industrial Revolution, (Iron Industry) which new lands acquired in winning the War in 1848 led to heightened tensions in the 2 houses of our legislature branch, regarding adding new states free or slave; the Dred Scott Case, and the heightened aggravation of Rural vs Urban sentiments on those two events, which were exacerbated by John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry, capture by men led by U.S. Union Army Officer Robert E. Lee. and Mr. Brown and friends subsequent execution. This led to the Highly Unusual Presidential Election of Nov. 6, 1860 which placed Lincoln of the four candidates, into office.
That was the ignition spark that started off the Civil War. It is directly a causal correlation with S. Carolina seceding in January, 6 more soon after, then four that bordered them and felt they were between a rock and a hard place, concurred; all prior to Lincoln being Sworn in,
yet all precisely because he was declared the winner of the election and they saw the writing on the wall.

Apologists wish to point to Fort Sumpter as the spark, a "battle" where nobody died.

The Red Hand of Ulster opines... yet does not address Cornish, Scots, Welsh, nor Irish independence desires. If one wishes to get into that discussion, that is related, yet not only is UK history relevant in this discussion, for it is essential in the establishment of Iron industry and weapons production in their former colonies, with discovery and exploitation of vast natural resources of Iron Ore, the UK also established the institution of slavery, and then was denied any input in resolving the problem that they established 240 years prior to the US Civil War.

That poll is fake, most of them are, they use polls to push political agendas all the time.

Prove it!

The poll, as egregious in it's authenticity as it may be, is not fake.
I'd have to go with "a74814" in agreement in asking for a citation, or proof.

Otherwise, if by fake, it is meant that a bunch of biased Libweirdos in a funnel, of a likeminded echochamber of urban-elitist-idiocy produced the polls, then I'd have to agree with the Burnt Finger Forged, and move forward in progression.

The experts disagree! 8gfu60.jpg (click to show)

*hmmmm? What are the Criteria, ie: Credentials or experience of your Chart?
Thanks for citing the source of your chart. Really helpful.

I was curious also - current or former members of the APSA who have recently published peer-reviewed research pertaining to presidential and executive politics.

The breakdown of the data along party and ideological lines was interesting because even among the republicans and conservatives in the group, Trump never made it as high as 40th.

EDUCATED IDIOTS
Oh, curiosity satisfied to find an echo-chamber of APSA peers consisting of Elitist Idiots patting each other on the backs in a circle around the Socialists International leaning room. Acting like this publication denotes anything of historical accuracy besides the current times we are suffering, is humorously ludicrous.

A survey led by the (allegedly) Circus Tent ringleader, a Dallas TEXAN raised, Northern educated liberal using
Confirmation Bias Skewed "research"
Peer reviewed by young Marxist Libweirdo's *allegedly

Certainly not a gaggle of Liberals of the Frederic Bastiat mold.

The claim of Republicans and Conservatives participating w/o a numerical breakdown of sample size is suspect.

How many participants in this survey were conservative Democrats?

Lol "experts" I almost spit coffee through my nose

I did.
These "experts" are akin to Lipizzan Stallions compared to gelding horses in their own pasture

OUT-STANDING in their own field

Booo how dare you compare him to Roosevelt much less Lincoln or Washington.

Boo.

Happy presidents day to all the fraudulent globalist turds at the top end of politics

*History will not be kind to the BABY BOOMER's in Power Era we've been in since 1992.
Unfettered Ambition, Superstition, and Ignorance is not a flattering combo, yet they wear it well.
Championing Globalism for ALL is not a good look.

The Drug Fueled Utopian Cultist Boomer Era is about over.
There is HOPE in that Change.

That, or their Utopian Experiment to Bequeath the remaining humans in the World has begun.
