The dictionary 'irregardless': "regardless" Also the dictionary 'ir-': "not; the opposite of" 'regardless': "despite everything" Me: You claim 'irregardless' is a word. What does it mean? Merriam-Webster (MW): "'Regardless'" Me: ...and what does 'regardless' mean? MW: "'Despite everything'" Me: Okay, so both 'regardless' and 'irregardless' mean "despite everything;" is that correct?

With each passing day, it becomes increasingly clear voters don't approve of Donald Trump's war with Iran; voters don't approve of the financial repercussions which have resulted from it; and to put it bluntly, voters simply don't approve of Donald Trump as president.  Historically, presidents have been offered a honeymoon after starting a war overseas. It wasn't until months, even years after the initial strike when voters began to sour on things. Just ask Vietnam. Oh, and Afghanistan. Did I mention Iraq? No such grace-period was provided for Trump and his war with Iran, however. There wasn't a 9/11-style attack on American soil to trigger a bloodthirsty, united front at home. During his campaign, Trump even called himself the anti-war president, promising there would be no new wars, adding that prices were going to come waaaaaay down. So, what did he decide to do? Start a new war, which caused prices to go waaaaaay up. While it's true, 9 times out of 10, p...

In recent years, there's been a growing number of people claiming the two major parties in the United States are one and the same. While I have long asserted the issues I have with a two-party system, I'm not going to beat around the bush; the Democratic and Republican Parties are about as identical as Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger. The biggest difference between the two parties is mindset. Democrats need consistent proof to persuade them on an issue, whereas Republicans need a sliver of evidence to prove or disprove a point. There are exceptions, of course, which often poses a paradox for the Republican Party - as they don't believe there are exceptions to every rule; they believe exceptions are the rule.  Just recently, New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill announced, since 2023, 400 Garden-State noncitizens have voted in elections. This has set off a firestorm amongst Republicans, as they've long-claimed rampant election fraud; that the 2020 presidential electi...

How bad are things for Donald Trump? I've honestly never seen such awful numbers for a president in this country. Forewarning: This is going to be a lengthy thread, with lots of numbers, so Trumpelthinskin, if you're listening, you may want to look elsewhere. First off, as far as Drumpf's net-approval ratings go, he's above water in just 4 states: Wyoming, Idaho, West Virginia, and North Dakota, and in North Dakota, he's only at a +1. Here is the full list of state-by-state net-approval ratings for lil Donnie. As a reminder, net-approval is the difference between one's approval and disapproval. For example, if a person's approval is 44%, and their disapproval is 56%, their net-approval would be -12% (44-56). In other words, Trumpty Dumpty is above +/-0% in just 4 states. Washington, D.C.: -82% Vermont: -47% Maryland: -45% Hawaii: -44% Illinois: -40% Washington: -40% Rhode Island: -39% Connecticut: -38% Massachusetts: -37% Oregon: -36% California: -33% New Me...
