I question his fitness for office if he had no clue, they aren't shy about these beliefs and they have gotten less shy post trump.

This is it right here and this scenario was most likely the plan from the outset, they planned on this and orchestrated it.

Yes, this is a big fucking deal.

This goes in the (no shit sherlock) pile. Those of us who have been paying attention and saw the instant flip from red scare to licking putins asshole have known this for a good couple of decades now.

And to clarify here. Biden is declining because we all do at that age. No one is immune to that. Trump is declining because he has abused who knows how many different drugs and fuck knows what else over the decades, add that history to age and it's never going to be good. Biden has always had a stutter and while I know you didn't mention it, it's been used a bully stick by the maggats seemingly unaware of the fact that their guy has been deranged and unable to stay on topic for years.

This is the difference between the two sides.

The right thinks that the rules don't apply to them.

The left takes even the smallest infractions way more seriously than they need to. I'm still pissed off about Franken. Pretty sure Biden didn't do a damn thing to protect his son aside from just being his father as most good parents would do regardless of their innocence or guilt.

Not really. The choice is between a fascist sychopant who did more damage to this country than we will likely ever know or an experienced statesman who has led the charge to undo said damage and bring us forward on many fronts. If trump had won again we would probably be chest deep in the worst depression we have ever seen and note that I said depression and not recession.

I'm sure the spikes and other barriers that were put there by the state of texas have nothing to do with the number of deaths.

It's exactly the same. But because it's their god it's somehow different, but it's not.

They are going broke across the country. Trump has been sucking up all of the donations and then spending on legal bills. He is going to be the end of the party and I'll be watching with glee.

I've seen others suggest that it gets surrendered to the public domain if they take the deduction. I'd be fine with that.

I wouldn't throw in the towel just yet. When was the last time a sitting democratic president lost the second term, with a strong economy? Plus the entire 18+ demographic waking up thanks to the attack on reproductive rights, on trans, gay, basically anything other than white males.

With the number of criminal charges trump is facing I would be surprised if he gets anywhere near this next election. All it takes is one or two states declaring him unfit under treason and sedition and he has zero chance of winning even with the electoral college being borked.

Plus keep in mind that trump is good for these news organizations. They are going to keep giving him the spotlight and he can keep rilling up the 75% of us that know what his masters want from him.

Remember that it's a very small, very loud minority supporting trump. We also don't have the same troll farms manipulating people on fb and elsewhere like we did last time around. We will also be more likely to be more vigilant (hopefully) protecting people at the voting booth from people scaring off anyone who may vote for sanity.
