    Never seen before? I guess you're too young to remember the early '80s and by the way after the high interest rates of that period wrung inflation out of the economy, induced a recession (which probably will not happen this time and if it does it will be very mild) which was followed by a strong recovery and a landslide reelection by Ronald Reagan.
    To refresh your memory.

    sigh. You are equivocating.

    In my statement, "challenge" means to question or dispute misinformation. You narrow "challenge" to mean to confront Kennedy directly during the interview. The shift in meaning of the word is obviously intended to create confusion and misrepresent my assertion. C'mon man.

    Now you're appealing to hypocrisy and more false equivalency. That is, unless you can demonstrate when ABC allowed Biden to spew scientific misinformation without comment.

    first of all, no, they don't air every word that Biden says. Where in the world did you get the idea that they do?
    second, editing an interview isn't censoring. you really should understand that, too

    How about 'what do fast rising inflation rates do to the economy' or perhaps 'economics for dummies'.

    I did not ask for any specific factual information. Instead, I requested that he provide further explanation on the main idea he was trying to convey. Do you know what point he was trying to make?

    The whole world is in chaos, the country is coming apart at the seams with political polarization, misuse of energy resources, drug epidemics, economic disaster, and illegal immigrants are pouring across the southern border unchecked, China and Russia are united against us as never before, lines are being drawn for World War III while an endless proxy war burns the fuse, the Russians are goading us to fire the first shot, and we've got a guy in the White House who shouldn't even be calling bingo games at the nursing home who will probably be there for nearly six more years. And on top of that, we're praying that he DOES make it for fear of his replacement. God help us, every one.

    Disagree. Reason - Non sequitur. Envelopes aren't eligible to vote in Federal elections.

    Noting that the rate of inflation while still too high has been declining for several months in row, most recently at less than 5% on a year to year basis based on the CPI. Once again.

    Trump did manage to get over 74 million votes, only around 7 million less than Joe Biden and they were votes from actual human voters not envelopes.

    The latest Ipsos/Reuters poll (and let me state I think polls this far out from a presidential year are worthless) show Biden beating Trump by 5 and DeSantis by 9.

    It looks like DeSantis isn't unknown any more nationally and that's not a good thing for the Billy Barty clone.

    You may want to re-visit this post--pretty sure it doesn't say what you intended.

    To be honest I'm really not sure what he meant he used the term "envelopes". I assumed that he was referring to supposedly fraudulent votes and that he actually believes Trump's big lie or that he was trolling. In any event I thought the reference was absurd.
