I'm a veteran and some of the most anti-Trump people I know are also veterans. For some, it was how Trump deliberately shared classified information with people he shouldn't have, and others it was hearing how trump called servicemen--deceased servicemen at that "suckers" and "losers." For me it was a bit earlier when the other criminality popped up, like manipulating the stock market and taking foreign payments while president. I had wanted him to make me want to reelect him. He let us all down.

Selling pardons is a form of bribery. Relieving student debt to needy borrowers is actively addressing financial hardship. I don't consider it buying votes any more than Trump's tax cuts for the rich.

I don't hate Trump. It's just that he was a lousy president and needs to face the consequences for his crimes. He's guilty as can be.

As a professional quality assurance engineer, myself, I can appreciate how Trump laid bare the defects in our Constitution. For example, what's to stop a President from pardoning himself or even selling pardons to his friends? Turns out, just about nothing. Congress needs to fix these bugs.

You're right. I should've explained it to you like you're five. We didn't just have empty shelves for a few days like they see before hurricanes. Those empty shelves went on for months, like it was Socialist Russia, because Trump was a f***ing moron and did nothing about the critical shortages. He was on TV telling people "soon it'll be over" and that injecting bleach and horse medicine might help. Such a brainiac.

The war with Gaza is a sticky subject but Israel is probably the US's worst ally. They're currently committing genocide with the weapons supplied and they don't seem to care. You can go cry about Israel not getting all the weapons they want in the other thread.

We've come a long way. Here's a photo of supermarket shelves from four years ago:

Hah. You kinda look like Josh Brolin with a buzz cut.

Weird. when I view profiles in the app, the line breaks appear correctly, but not when viewed in the web page. Viewed on the web, all the profile's paragraphs appear as one big paragraph, without the line breaks.

I guess Mingle2 needs to hire a PHP developer to fix that.

Yeah. Funny thing from the article:
1. The Trump 47 Committee, a new fundraising tie-up with the RNC, directs funds to Trump's Save America leadership group before anything goes to the RNC, the invitation shows.

2. The Trump 47 Committee is asking top donors to contribute up to $814,600 per person.

3. The first $6,600 of any person's contribution would go to Trump's presidential campaign

4. A maximum of $5,000 per person would then be allocated to Save America

5. After Save America gets its share, the RNC would get a cut of up to $413,000.

6. In the cases of the biggest contributions, a raft of Republican state parties would get funds too.

So, from 100 attendees, they collected "$50 million," but only $660K goes to Trump's campaign, and the rest goes to his PAC (probably legal bills) and then the RNC, which probably spends it on Trump's legal bills. So effective.

I don't understand the statement either. Was "unwilling to lit" the result of auto-correct? Please elaborate.

It's a good profile, but could use some work.

The photos do a good job of showing your face and show you're a good-looking guy. The hand gesture in your main photo is odd, and the money in the 2nd photo seems odd, too. Not sure the message you're trying to send. Maybe you could remove the duplicate photo, too.

You left the headline as the default "Hi.." which is weak. It says your profession is "cool" (not a profession) and the text blurb is a mess. You wrote

Maybe rewrite that to be clearer. You could also better describe the kind of woman you seek. If you have a particular type, that would be good to include. If you really don't care who responds, then it's OK. I'm not crazy about the sloppy punctuation, but that also makes it seem casual, so maybe some will be OK with that. I'm not knowledgeable about Bengaluru trends. This could be absolutely perfect, but it doesn't look good to me.

Overall, I have seem much worse profiles, and you seem to be a good-looking guy, and lots of people don't even seem to read the profile, so you should do alright. But for the weird photos and sloppy text, I only rate it 6/10.

Good luck!

It's a good profile. Interesting photo and you filled in all the info. The text blurb describes you, but nothing seems to grab attention.

The photo is interesting because it's black & white and high contrast. Filtered? It bugs me that you're not smiling or looking into the camera, but since you're 6' tall, I guess looking up to you is the view the ladies will have to get used to, right? And the monochrome filter is odd, too. For better results, maybe get more photos, with one or more where you're looking into the camera when taking the shot. Smiling would make you more approachable. Maybe get a shot or two of yourself in an interesting place. A beach or an event sounds good!

The text blurb describes a busy, lonely life, and while that may be true, you could fix it a bit. Maybe aim for a "I want to go out you could come along" sentiment. I think emphasize the fun and also maybe add something to describe what kind of woman you seek. Do you have a "type?" That would be good to know. If not, and you're really open to anything, then it's probably fine, as is.

The headline you chose is weird, too. "Hello, how's your day been?" is a salutation. Better could be "Hi, let's go catch a show!" or something like that? Have fun with it.

Anyway, it's still a good profile as is. You seem like a good-looking guy and the ladies will probably understand what you mean anyway. But for the profile that is good but could be better, I rate it 7/10.

Good luck!

Nice photo, but from your selection of "intimate encounter" and no further information beyond age/sex/location, you seem to say "no strings attached" and "let's keep this anonymous." It's also a huge red flag. There may be women around who are looking for an anonymous one-night-stand, but most will probably want to know what they're getting into and whom they're getting with. I'm not a woman, but from what I've heard from my sisters and lady friends, I think they'll see this profile as sketchy.

You do you, I guess, but it would be better if you took the time to explain yourself and fill in the biographical information at least, and for better results, write up a neat headline and text blurb to attract the ladies--show them you've got something going on and make you more interesting and desirable.

Those still aren't crimes, even if Biden did all that. And he didn't. Immigrants may enter the country, but the laws don't allow Biden to lock them out. Biden asked Congress to send him a bill to sign to let him close the borders and Trump had Republicans kill it. Current laws require the US to allow immigrants to apply for asylum.

Russia and China aren't gaining more power--they're both currently under sanctions, and Russia is mired in a war with Ukraine (don't know how you missed that), losing $trillions in economic expansion and lost business. China is currently in an economic crisis, too, with its real estate sector collapsing, and they're in population decline. If China is bullying our adversaries, then that's a good thing. The US is supporting our allies in the region, though.

Babies aren't killed in abortions. Those are embryos or possibly fetuses; not babies, and that's not up to the President to decide, but between the mother and her doctor. Too often, women with serious medical complications are stuck with a pregnancy that can kill them and doctors are afraid to provide abortion services in fear for their licenses or practices or impending legal trouble. By the time they can get the help they need, they're left sterile from it. But none of that affects your "good life."

As to "allowed attacks on Christian’s and ignores the crime committed by his followers" I don't know what you mean. We have laws, and if people are guilty of crimes, they should be charged. Unless by "attack" you mean some words that hurt some Christian's feelings? The 1st Amendment wouldn't let Biden stop that, but maybe you can explain what you meant.

Again: Those aren't crimes. Not in the US, at least. Maybe after November's election, we'll have Democratic majorities and can get the border and abortion laws fixed.

So Special Counsel Robert Hur just wasn't paying attention? And neither were the Chairmen James Comer and Jim Jordan? That was kind of their job, but OK. Got it.

OK, it's not up to you to prove. That is the prosecutor's job. And if trump has any evidence that Biden is guilty of anything, why is he keeping it secret? It's just wishful thinking that Biden is guilty of anything. If you think anybody is in the dark, then show the evidence, but insisting Biden is guilty because "you know" makes you look stupid--especially when you can't even name the crime committed.

It doesn't matter that "American people" are angry. Prosecuting crimes is not dependent on popularity. The laws are in place so that justice is served. No need to check the popular opinion before having Trump pay his bills or serve his time if convicted. Rich white men should not automatically get to do crimes and your love for Trump doesn't make him innocent. Maybe petition the government to make it legal to commit the acts for which he's being charged, or just let Trump prove he's innocent in court.

I'm sorry if these facts hurt, but blaming Biden or the Democrats overall is wrong. This mess is Trump's fault. He's the criminal.

Hah, yeah, the Congressional Republicans already tried that lie. There's no evidence Biden committed any such crimes. So good luck with that.

The point is to offer constructive criticism, and it's not like he was hit in the face with a shovel or anything. And some people could use reassurance that they're not ugly. Why would I need to insult anybody?

It's a pretty good profile. It makes you seem somewhat wild and energetic, and the text rambles a bit. Maybe you could clean it up a bit. Add some white space--break it into paragraphs.

The photos are mostly clear and show your face well. They also seem to be from different time periods, where you main photo seems to be an old photo that you like, and it's difficult to place the others--they look so different. Almost like they're sisters.

So, it seems that you have an interesting personality and a disjointed writing style, but you clearly put work into your profile, but reading through that is a bit hard to follow. Maybe I'd TOTALLY get it if I were Canadian and that much into lacrosse, but alas, for the weird/jumbled blurb and the odd collection of photos, I'd only rate it 8/10.

Good luck!
