Graham, this is novel!: "Trump Derangement Syndrome"

The thing about Trump is that he's a bulwark against the insane identity politics and the wrath it has thrown at us.... the silent majority. So, many of us who lean toward old fashioned common sense vote for him, with our fingers over our noses. As a vet, to be equal minded, I did LOVE that Biden during the Union speech, STARTED with the defense for Ukraine, and I sure hope that happens. I spent 18 months in Turkey, copying Russian voice intel, am familiar with its language, culture, and threat. Remember: They have atomic warheads, and LOTs of them. And a megalomaniac in Putin!

Currently, we have, Ukraine (as a proxy army) fighting the 2nd largest Army in the world) and Israel (as a proxy Army), fighting the Islamic religionists; Israel stands as our front line of defense against the Arabs (Islamic Ideology). I hope all are well and the US gets serious about arming Ukraine. God Bless the Ukraine!

The idea of the Russian family is a laugh. Most men drink themselves to death by age 55. You rarely see an old man in Russia. I remember walking in a park in St. Petersburg many years ago and saw in front of me an old man with white hair. It was like a unicorn. Most families are grandmother, mother, daughter, three generations of women without any men.

As to the election, I saw a poll today that shows Trump with 36%, Biden with 30%, and neither candidate with 30%. For an incumbent, which is essentially what Trump is, he is not polling very well. In some states, he barely has a majority of the GOP vote. Are those people who are voting against him now going to vote for him in the general election? I don't think so. RFK, Jr. had 35% in one poll that I saw three weeks ago while Trump and Biden both had 30%. Both of the so-called front runners are hugely unpopular. I think 36% for Trump might be his ceiling of the vote in November.
