Yup, all the new wars, and new conflicts, and ISIS terror attacks in the US, and all their decapitations, etc...

Elections have consequences.
If any of that happens today or tomorrow, it’s Trump’s fault, by your logic, right?

Hmm. That's one huge reason I'm not voting for trump. I don't think he has done a good job protecting our interests. If we had another world war, I doubt we'd have any allies other than perhaps Israel.

So my question for you is this, what on his stances, do you support? Also are you ok with truly voting for Kamala Harris (who suspended her campaign in Dec 2019 due to finances and she also didn't appeal to many)? Lets be honest, if Biden wins the election, how long do you give him before he steps down or is removed from the presidency because his mind is leaving him hanging so much?

My questions are genuine. I'm just trying to understand.

Well, remember the immortal words of Reagan about an exchange with the USSR. "This is great! It is now possible to fight a war with the USSR without MAD.........................too bad about Europe.".

Okay, he didn't say that but at the time, that was the general feeling. Just like how West Germany was not too crazy about a war in Europe between the US and the USSR.......because they would be the battle ground.

So odds are, if we are talking about WW III, we won't have to worry about allies, either because of MAD or no one wants to be the battle ground for that slugging match.

The faceless thugocracy of 1 million+ federal bureaucrats will remain almost entirely unchanged in either staffing or mission, and state/local governments will still be 99% more impactful on your daily life than the federal government.

But go on, keep power drinking that partisan koolaid (blue or red flavored, doesn't really matter) if it makes you feel better. Nothing will change, at least nothing the average person in America will notice. Share all the dire warnings and forebodings, scare us all to death with the election of either one of those two braying jackarses, and watch how the population moves along just fine no matter who wins.

We, the people, the average American, prosper and survive IN SPITE of government...never because of it.
Anarchy, now there’s system that will work. And all this time I was living in such pain and anguish! How do I sign up??

Hilarious-

A lib finds a white elephant and suddenly gets giddy that there is a glimmer of hope for Biden.

There are far, far more democrats, terrified by the violence created by dems, that are voting for Trump for fear that democrat anarchy will come to their homes.

Keep on hoping there, lib- hope is all you got!
