    Maybe wishful thinking but I hope the young voter turnout sends a message to the GOP. I know they're pissed about Roe v Wade and rights issues.

    I disagree. I think he's been very effective... outmaneuvering his political opponents at every step. I underestimated President Biden, but have been pleasantly surprised. There are some things out of his control, like questionable Supreme Court decisions, so I can't hold that against him. There is a concerted effort to paint him as aloof, or bumbling, but it's obvious false propaganda.

    Some people just have low standards I guess.
    Biden is just like Trump…a national embarrassment.

    Reformed Trump supporters definitely know a thing or two about having low standards for president.

    You may disagree with Biden's politics... and that is fair, but I don't see how anyone could compare him to Trump with respect to embarrassing the nation.

    It's not nearly as lopsided aa you think.

    The pro-baby killer crowd s just shamelessly loud and obnoxious about their zeal to waste babies.

    I said "outside of right wing fever dreams."

    Now explain to me how it was ok Kushner's company got $2B from Qatar while running Middle East policy and how Ivanka's companies got Chinese patents fast tracked while working on Chinese policy, both while working in the White House.

    Here's stats. And this was before the GOP even attacked Roe. Feel free to provide your own

    "Views on abortion by age, 2022
    Among adults under age 30, 74% say abortion should be legal in all or most cases, as do 62% of adults in their 30s and 40s. Among those in their 50s and early 60s, 55% express support for legal abortion, as do 54% of those ages 65 and older."

    Its true, people around the world could respect that Trump embodied all the qualities of America perfectly: big, vain, ignorant and racist (and raging against its own decline). Definitely the most American president.

    Prove any corruption exists outside of the insinuations from the Hunter Biden emails that are unproven.

    As a matter of fact, present anything that can be linked to something that actually happened vs. Gateway Pundit level speculation.

    "....I had no knowledge of Hunters dealings...."

    "...the laptop is a Russian plant/hoax..."

    "...the 'Big Guy' wasnt Daddy Joe..."

    "...Barisma paid Hunter millions for his expertise..."

    "...joe just happened to leave boxes of classified docs in UPenn where chinese had access..."

    Ok, a fair take, as fat as the snowglobe goes, though i take exception to the racist part, bc the whole world is racist, and we're like one of the least racist of the Eurocentrc elitist nations.

    But yeah, Trump and MAGA indeed raged against our own decline, bc its self-inflicted by the leftist cancer that has metastasized, emanating from within the Democrat party.

    Looks like the Forward Party is not running a presidential candidate.

    Forward Party – Not Left. Not Right. FORWARD.

    I think this is an understandable move, but it may leave us out in the cold for a respectable option for that office. I guess our only hope is that the Libertarians put forward someone palatable.

    They are different people for sure.
    I feel sorry for Biden but I do not feel anything for trump.
    But make no mistake, they are both embarrassing for our country, even if it is for different reasons.

    They were raging against their own decline, really. MAGA is nothing without aging seniors/boomers/gen X like Trump who want to go out like Scarface instead of with some dignity. That they tie up their own irrelevance with the fate of the country is an unfortunate reality we have to live through. I realize contracting herpes at a key party in the Villages can leave you feeling unfulfilled and empty, but there are other ways to express that outside of politics.

    Its all about aesthetic preferences for people who all know America is cooked deep down. You can live in denial with a guy like Trump and pretend you still got it, you're still that ladies man from the 1980s with great hair and a nice tan or you can have some dignity like Biden and accept your decline, and go out with a whimper and a nice eulogy. Sure you can say stuff about policy, but in our political system, policy isnt something you can really do so ...
