1. I wish they would quit saying trump has done better than Obama in Ukraine.

Too bad Dems won't say that Under Pres. Obama's watch, things of this nature never happened.

Dems and their messaging most of the time  :bawl:

7. More to the point is what was actually said by the president. [obama]

Which was he didn't want lethal military aid to go to Ukraine because it would just rile up Russia and make the situation worse.

He sent non-lethal aid. The Ukrainians, even at the time, were asking for anti-tank weapons because of the tidal wave of (mostly) old Soviet tanks that were moving in convoys to support the rebels in the Donbas. And which were responsible for some of their largest defeats, with hundreds of Uk soldiers dead.

I think that was a wildly poor misreading of Putin and said so at the time.

6. Swalwell just cleaned that up, pointing out

all the training Obama provided to Ukrainian armed forces, and the equipment they’d need to use that training, and wrapped that up with “Thats a whole lot more than blankets, right Ms Cooper?” She agreed its was.

"Training."  Probably transgender sensitivity training.

8. Yes I heard that. I think Eric Swalwell is one of the brightest

stars of the Democratic party. I wonder why his candidacy for president didn't catch fire. Was he too moderate
for todays Democratic party or what?

9. I like him a lot too, I don't know why

he didn’t catch fire, could be his low-key presence, people are looking for fire n brimstone maybe. But I believe he has a long career ahead!

Not after fartgate, he doesn't.   :lmao:

Swalwell's campaign didn't "catch fire" because he reminds everyone of every junior high brat who was quick to point the finger at everyone else for what he did wrong.

Honestly, from the first time I saw him on Tucker Carlson's show I've thought he had the most punchable face in Congress.

He's a 'Chad.'  He's got a mouth that could hold a bowling ball.  Reminds me of the obnoxious older brother in Weird Science.

Dunno. "Chet" is a cowboy. "Chad" is an asshole.

Yeah.  But the current vernacular to describe the type is 'Chad.'

Like 'Karen' for the short-haired soccer mom who wants to talk to the manager right now.

He didn't lie enough, clearly.

Also, I think this calls for a parody song "We didn't fart the Steyer." :-)
