Too much empathy results in policies arrived at through emotion rather than what's good long term for the country. For example.......if empathy causes us to adopt policies such as "open borders" for immigrants, and ignoring those who entered the country illegally, overstayed visas, or failed to attend "mandatory" asylum hearings, you end up lowering wages for American citizens, increasing rent costs for everyone, and putting a strain on education due to oversized classrooms and distracted teachers working with poor English speakers instead of math and reading for the rest of the students. Add to that the drain on social services and hospital emergency rooms and you've allowed empathy to seriously injure American citizens!!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

You need to look a little deeper. It's not "personality" that interests conservatives, but POLICY! Trump was elected president because of conservative policies, eg, closing the border to illegal immigration, deporting illegals (entered illegally, overstayed visas, failed to appear at asylum hearing), energy independence, rooting out corruption in gov spending, elimination of DEI (reverse discrimination), and reestablishing law-and-order! These are policies in stark contrast to those held by liberals!

@PhantomWizzo @bennyjohnson The Aran nations surrounding Iran will be paying the $300B, not the American taxpayer. And release of that money is conditional. If Iran breaches any aspect of the deal, the money stops and the USA military will be bombing Iran again.

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@JoJoFromJerz Most of that money will come from gulf states, not the USA according to Secretary Rubio. The money is also CONDITIONAL on Iran verifiably giving up their nuclear ambitions in all forms, including buying material from outside sources.

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

Secretary Rubio says that money is conditional andbmost will come from gulf states, not American. That money will be used to rebuild Iran's infrastructure after the severe bombing campaign that has wrecked many parts of airan and their military. But again....CONDITIONS must he met to teceive that money.

I don't condone the recent smear of Michelle Obama by the UFC fighter saying, "Michelle Obama is a man!" But what I don't understand about Ms Obama is why on her podcast she speaks about being a victim all the time? She's wealthy, spent 8 years as First Lady, has a law degree, has two beautiful daughters, has a beach front home on Martha's Vineyard, a published author, etc.. By all outward appearances she's NOT a victim. But she exposed herself when Barak first won the presidential election stating in an interview, "For the first timenin my life I'm proud of my country!" Michelle Obama never had any pride in American until becoming First Lady! Even if she felt that way, that's not something a First Lady should be saying!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

Max, if you voted for Obama because he's black (like 90% of blacks), for Hillary because you want to see a woman president (feminists), for Kamala because you hate Trump and would like to see a female minority as president (feminists & black women), then you're voting ideologically, on physical characteristics, not policy. One of the most obvious people suffering from this is Whoppie Goldberg on the View when she said during Biden's presidwncy that she thought Jill Biden would be a fantastic pick as Surgeon General because "she's a great doctor!"Jill Biden had a Phd in Educatiin! She was not a Medical doctor. Whoppie rwvealed her "ideological bias," not a principled position on policy.

I'm a republican, but voted for a democrat, Bill Clinton because he was the last president to have balanced the budget by firing 400k federal employees and working with a republican congress on fiscal constraint. I voted for Trump, not because I like him, but based on policy issues: closing the border, removing immigrants who entered illegally, overstayed visas, or missed asylum court dates, prioritizes energy independence, gets rid of DEI which is simply reverse discrimination, believes in law-and-order, strengthens our military. I don't care who the person is who impliments these policies, including minorities and/or women, but I haven't seen a candidate like that, except perhaps Nikki Haley!

@MahikRani50377 What's heartbreaking is Karmelo killed a young man, throwing his life away! The jury made the correct decision. If you want to initiate a fist fight, well boys will be boys, but you don't run a knife through someone's heart because they were rude to you.

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@EshaAA33 Why are 1st Ladies always flapping their pie-holes? They weren't elected to anything! Michelle Obama would be an average, run-of-the-mill attorney in Illinois if she hadn't married Barak. She "achieved" nothing on her own, including becoming a black 1st Lady!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

You've identified a major problem with democrats, which is they vote based on empathy, emotion, and personality. You should only vote for candidates that advance good policies, not because you think it would be fun to hang out with them, or they're the right skin color or gender. Individuals will always disappoint, but it's the policies that make a difference!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

Blue areas all over the country are suffering because of incompetent leadership. And now liberal democrats have voted for guy in Maine with a Nazi tattoo (Platner); a democrat House of Rep candidate in New Jersey (Adam Hamawy) who was a character witness for the Blind Sheikh (he bombed the WTC in 1993); an Attorney General in Virginia (Jay Jones) who wished death on his opponent and his kifs, stating he would "piss on their graves"; a democrat Rep in Texas (Galindo) who suggested American Jews should be rounded up and put in detention centers, and a Senior Safety Adviser (Brian Williams) to Los Angeles Mayor Bass who reported a fake bomb threat to police!
The democrat party, other than perhaps Senator Fetterman has lost their collective minds!

@ADRWC I admire Elon Musk so much!!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

I'm super excited for this UFC event at the White House! I'm a big fan of the UFC, and It's an absolutely historic event! Just a great addition to the celebratory events commemorating our nations 250th anniversary! It's too bad "some" liberals can't even celebrate anything while Trump is president.

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@WolfgangRichtEU Musk used to be appreciated by liberals for developing the largest EV company in the world. He joined Yrump in the task of finding and eliminating waste and fraud in government, now liberals hate him. That's all this is about!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@JessicaTetreau She is absolutely insufferable!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

Blowhard....Trump hasn't mentioned terms of the deal they're talking about signing tomorrow have they. And for the record, they're going to need some money to rebuild streets and infrastructure, but at least they won't have a nuke. Obama just gave tjem money for a "promise ti not build a nuke," which of course they never intended to keep. At least now Iran knows the hammer's coming if they attempt to restart their nuke program. Iran has also famaged cooperation with neighboring Arab countries by bombing them out of desperation and hatred. These Arab countries will be much more likely to assist the USA in the future.

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@AntiLeftMemes Or one of them could kill one of your relatives; it's a gamble! But if you're saying because one-in-a-million "illegal immigrants" might add something significant to society we should simple throw our border open to everyone, you're just not thinking clearly!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@Jethro5724011 @EshaAA33 That's his daughter Ivanka moron! Maybe you don't show effection for your children, but normal people do! And Trump's tongue being out in that photo is AI, so you're really showing your TDS!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@EshaAA33 Don't Stop!

[Paul McKinley @mckinlp]

@SenAdamSchiff This is the democrats trying to gin up support, but nothing ever changes when they're in congress except them getting rich too!
