I think this is a bigger deal than most people imagine. We've pushed away our allies over the last 3.5 years. We can't keep China at bay by ourselves. We need allies. But our allies are laughing at us now. We need that restored. I could say Biden is the guy to do it. However, logically, the guy that broke those decades of friendly relations definitely would not be the guy for it. Might as well try something new.

That's so silly. ANYONE, yes, that means you, can create a website, and then link it to another site. The antifa website was probably set up by someone who is opposed to Biden and wanted to sully Biden.

Only one candidate needs to have specific solutions/platform? I don`t think Biden would try to extort a personal favor like rigging an election from a foreign leader. How`s that?

Biden isn't afraid to forget what he's talking about, repeatedly, and meander off into gibberish. That takes the kind of guts that the West needs in its foremost leader.

What does that have to do with my post?

But hey - thanks for watching my back - I knew you would!

"After 47 years faithfully serving as a public servant in government" and WHAT did he ACCOMPLISH in all those 47 years/

How many bills did he author? how many did he introduce? How many of those became law?

Just occupying a seat is NOT an accomplishment.

Were you challenged to see how many words you could use to create an overly general and therefore meaningless couple of sentences of advertising?

Is the ACA still around? How much of it has gone by the wayside?

The irony is palpable.

That's exactly what it is. And my post had nothing to do with the antifa redirect.
