He won’t last because he has dementia which has become noticeably worse the last six months under the strain of a campaign, even though he spent most of it in his basement, and his cognitive decline will accelerate under the stress of the most demanding job in the world.

That means we will get Commie Kamala, but fortunately the House will flip to Republicans in 2022 and render her neutered. Then it will be two more years of blocking her progressive agenda, at which time a Republican will be elected president.

Protests, rioting and looting? But, you don't mind when the Republicans and DeJoy don't count legitimate votes and stash them away somewhere, ie take our democracy and trying to loot it?
Funny how people define things.

Harris will be running the show. Biden has demonstrated confusion and agitation in public. Just recently he thought he was running for the Senate. Harris will push him out.

I hope he stops fracking if he wins but somehow I doubt he will do that. The first thing he will do is raise taxes.

Name one government program that has not needed increased taxes to cover it's existence as time progresses. Government would need to hire many people to oversee a huge new healthcare program. Who do you think will be paying for these new workers? And is the government going to blindly pay all bills submitted by hospitals?

Sounds like you don't care about other people at all. Why did you vote for the party that cares?

This is a big reason why urban cities reject Republicans - the GOP doesn't even understand the most basic element in appealing to voters - who the voters are.

.


They sure know how to instill fear, tho.

With this election, half the country has totally lost confidence in the media. We need more alternative news sources. I know a few that I watch like Amazing Polly have been censored. So you are correct when you say "Just look at how they treat anyone who goes off message in the slightest way."


50% of this nation will need therapy LOL. Having such a channel headed by Trump would be awesome.
The media absolutely attempted to destroy conservatives for the last 4 years. But as they say, "what's good for the goose...…"
Good! No one creates more hatred of Trump (and the right wing) than Trump. If he wants to continue to bloviate, it’s all good for the Democrats.

Now that he may lose, the rats are already abandoning his ship.

I like the fact that both parties have less control in the house and senate, maybe this will moderate things.

I don't care for all the focus on transgender rights. Men who went through sex change should not be able to compete in women's sports.
I don't care about illegal immigrants. Just treat them humanely but there is no reason to welcome them. Keep them out humanely too.
Are you actually a Biden supporter or just anti Trump? If you’re a Biden supporter, what exactly are you a fan of when it comes to his policies?
