    Yeah, I noticed that immediately. But maybe they've just come around to gender-neutral pronouns?

    And the sad thing is that the red hat wearing sheeplike members of the Cult of the Donald probably believe that it was some type of conspiracy. Even some of the pro-Trump posters on this board who should know better have intimated that the assassination attempt may have been a conspiracy essentially implying that the Secret Service couldn't have possibly been so incompetent as to allow a 20-year old with serious psychiatric problems to take shots at a presidential candidate.

    Unlike the Democrats the republicans voted Trump as thier candidate how democratic was the vote for Harris? Oh yeah that’s right she was installed after the candidate that they voted for was forced out and if you think Biden stepped down willingly your just as full of shit as the media and the leaders or the “democratic “ party

    Who exactly can “force” Biden to step down? He could have legally murdered anyone who tried to force him to do anything, per SCOTUS. Biden is a great man whose time has passed, it just took him a few months too long to admit that to himself. I voted for Biden & Harris knowing there was a strong possibility she would have to take over as President someday. Stepping down so his VP can take the reins was his latest act of greatness. In case you missed that amazing convention, it’s never been so clear that he made the right choice for the country.

    You keep saying this? Got a link? I see some Republican said he wasn’t satisfied with the answers that he worked alone, but not seeing who “they” are or any “reports” that he didn’t act alone.

    Please provide a link to a credible source regarding the assassination conspiracy theory. Until I see evidence from a credible source indicating that Crooks didn't work alone I'm still going with the simplest and most logical theory i.e. that he was a lone wolf and was only able to get off multiple shots at the former president due to extreme incompetence on the part of the Secret Service and to a lesser extent local law enforcement.

    As far Biden's decision to withdraw while it was obviously the result of pressure it was still voluntary. Unlike the Republican nominee Joe Biden was willing to sacrifice his own aspirations for the good of the nation a concept totally foreign to Trump and apparently to his supporters.

    Seems to affirm the incompetence theory i.e. they are most likely guilty of serious failure to perform their role(s) in a competent manner. While the whole incident is still under investigation the chances are that one or more of them will be demoted and/or forced to resign or retire.

    Funny how you ignore the 2020 primary and how various state GOP's changed their rules to protect trump. Why didn't we have any primary debates?

    Not having a debate and inserting a candidate that got 0 votes big difference

    So by “forced” you mean “asked”? Biden had the delegates to remain in the race no matter what Pelosi suggested. Thats a simple fact.

    Also, where’s the link to this report you mentioned about the grand Thomas Crooks conspiracy?

    Conceding that it wouldn't have made any difference in the end several State Republican Parties cancelled their primaries in 2020. While you're probably too young to recall Hubert Humphrey was the Democratic nominee in 1968 even though he didn't receive a single primary vote. Before 1972 back when America was Great, presidential candidates weren't even selected through binding primaries. Not all states even held primaries and in a number of states primaries were preferential not binding, they actually weren't used to select delegates to party conventions.

    They’re not worried. Their compensation for allowing the assassination attempt is in no danger.

    Although they may have to share it with the dead people and illegal aliens who will be voting for Harris.
