Dementia Joe reminds me of the old "Know Nothing" party... Except they only pretended to know nothing. Joe literally can't tell the difference between his wife and his sister at times. He also forgets how to walk up steps and ride bicycles. Democrats tell us this is the best the nation has to offer, which really shows they know nothing as well.


I think the democratic party should change their name and become the "own nothing, and be happy" party. That's the kind of future they seem to be working on producing for us. Obviously, a competing political party doesn't have to try very hard to offer a better future, especially to those who don't mind working.

I kind of agree with you. I detest the democrats and what they have done to this country and I detest the republicans for making a very limp wristed attempt at stopping them and in some cases, even going along with them. I will probably try one more time to vote in hopes something will magically change but I would prefer a 3rd party.

Because, realistically, voting for a third party candidate is no better than skipping out on filling out your ballot all together. Although I wish it weren't the case, it results in a wasted vote. The time to buck the system is in the primary, and even that is risky. If I were a Conservative, I would not dare taking my vote away from the Republican candidate because it pretty much assures a Democratic win. I suggest you think carefully before going that route, and I would give Democrats the same advice.

Because at this point it would be throwing a vote away. I wish that wasn't the case, but it is.

A third party would just be a spoiler for either the Reps or the Dems not enough traction for one.

Because one gang is relatively benign and the other is stunningly incompetent and leading the country to ruin. It is imperative that the crazy party be kicked out office on their collective asses. I voted for a 3rd party candidate once. Ross Perot in 1992. In part because I wasted my vote, we ended up with a serial rapist as POTUS.

The Democrats are quickly destroying this country. Look what Biden has done in 18 months. Are we any safer at home, on the streets or in the World? Is the economy booming? How are your investments doing? Have you welcomed the 2 Million plus new Americans that hopped the Border yet? Do you like our children out 5 year olds being taught about sex, made to question their Gender and to be ashamed for their skin tone?



The Republicans are weak but they are our only chance to bail out this sinking ship.



If you like what is going on then stay home.
If you want to feel more of the Pain then vote Democrat.

If you want to send a clear message to the Left that what they are doing is wrong and not ok and in fact diabolical then Vote for the Republicans.



We have to Vote these Bums out and send a clear message and maybe then the Dems will come back to the center and be more moderate. This WOKE crap has to stop.
