That's an odd non-sequitur. Perhaps you've also had a stroke?

The economy GREW by a higher-than-expected 2.6% in September, unemployment is its LOWEST in 50 years, and 2022 is on track to be the second best for job growth in HISTORY, second only to 2021. #BidenDeliversAGAIN #VoteBlueForDemocracy #DarkBrandon

And inflation numbers that haven’t been seen in 40+ years.

Great to see folks finally getting back to work, though. Living in fear and shutting it down has had hUUUge consequences. Never know when and for what these clowns will do it again.

The Dem's love for homeless encampment expansions, garbage, crime, inflation, insane gas prices, and forced gender changes on 1st graders is at an all time high too.

They relate so well to it. I also loved Fetterman’s look and response when Oz brought up Fetterman’s tax evasion. He’s going to be as entertaining to watch as Sleepy Joes so many gaffes.

The Fetterman's aren't associated with authoritarianism? You are aware that he was the Lt Gov (ie - the #2 in the executive branch) during Governor Wolf's legalized dictatorship?

Here's a nice article from the Washington Post (you know, that infamous source of never-ending right-wing propaganda ) detailing Silver Spoon Fetterman's anti-democratic tendencies, enabled by daddy's money.
Not sure why my account was deleted, along with my response to this post.

But anyway, to reiterate, here (again) is The Atlantic article which includes the George Conway quote about the sorry state of the GOP (and which aligns with Ty's disingenuous arguments):

https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/ar...-biden/671859/

Quote from Conway:

As George Conway, an establishment Republican turned Trump critic, put it, “This is a party that basically lives off of false equivalences now.”

Articles that previously raised the issue of Dr. Oz's dual citizenship:

https://americanindependent.com/mehm...lvania-senate/

https://whyy.org/articles/mehmet-oz-...blican-turkey/

Washington Examiner articles:

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/n...cted-to-senate

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/r...makes-no-sense

Like I said in the deleted post, I don't endorse these arguments, but they are something a conservative, America First-style Pennsylvania voter might want to consider.

People have many different opinions, here is what my favorite ex democratic presidential candidate has to say. Remember she was also outed for working with russia by the sheep crying wolf Hillary clinton. There are 73 previous senators with duel citizenship, why you are harping on this i don't know. He said he will denounce it if elected.

It's just an argument - I'm not the only one making it. Gabbard -- one weird lady but haven't followed her very closely. Recall Hillary made an off the cuff comment about her once. Also recall the exchange during the 2020 Dem Presidential Primary debates where she seemed to call out Mayor Pete for suggesting that Afghanistan was behind 9-11 -- when Mayor Pete was clearly saying that we went into Afghanistan because they were sheltering the folks who planned and carried out the attack. I know Gabbard wanted us out of Afghanistan, but she seemed unable to acknowledge that we had a legitimate reason for being there in the first place.

Dual citizens -- yea, lots over time -- although most, I believe, were dual citizens of Canada, Ireland, or England -- so pretty strong, democratic allies.

Here, you do have some distinguishing factors -- which I have highlighted, and not the least of which is Erdogan's weird posture toward Russia, i.e., putting up a fight over sweden and finland joining Nato, and then still saying he could stop it:

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/t...s-nato-process

Then there is this weird statement from Erdogan about the West's provocations:

https://www.usnews.com/news/world/ar...ia-not-correct

And of course there are restrictions on a free press in Turkey:

https://www.brookings.edu/blog/order...ont-report-it/

Certainly, Dr. Oz would have been successful anywhere, but the level of success he achieved in America was not likely going to be possible in Turkey.

Gabbard's participation in the 2020 debate was an atrocity. She described joint Mexican-US exercises, which have been common place for generations, as "letting foreign armies on American soil" or some other eye rolling description. A total joke.



In the end she was chased out of the party because she coddled Assad, someone personally responsible for the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians, including many children. If you want to use her as a something symbolic, go for it. ErieGuy aside, who would consider himself a sadist if he knew what that word meant, no one would want to welcome her into their party.
