Lefties Do You Agree With Mr. MaGoo to have the 'Most diverse Cabinet' in history (racism, Kerry)

[texan2yankee]

define diversity.

to me, diverse means a diversity of views and ideas. biden, and the left, defines diverse as different skin colors or sexual orientations.

I agree with the above. I generally avoid posting in threads thatuse childish nicknames (for any politician, not just Biden) in the hopes others will too and they will drop to the bottom quickly. It starts the conversation off on the wrong foot. You can even start out from a partisan perspective without using a childish nockname. Also, a thread is much more persuasive without using such nicknames. When someone uses nicknames like this, it basically negates anything substantive s/he may say because the reader has already been primed to view the thread as a childish snip.

Anyway I decided to make an exception to my usual guideline when I saw this reply so close to what I was thinking. I'm sure we aren;t the only two posters who feel this way.

Independent here so I don't limit this thought to any particular side.

Regarding Biden. He can choose whoever he wants. If they need confirmation from congress then its up to them to decide. We have a representative republic not a democracy.

Really..after the following 4 years happened and we’re supposed to grow up....”blank you”



“We tolerated 44 (Obama) for 8 years and kept quiet.

Here is my issue with the whole, “let us all be a United States again” that we heard from Joe Biden.

For the last 4+ years, the Democrats have gone scorched earth. You have salted the fields and now you want to grow crops.

The problem is 72+ million of us have memories longer than a hamster.

We remember the women’s march (vagina hats and all) the day after inauguration.

We remember the 4 years of attacks and impeachments

We remember “not our president” and the “Resistance…”

We remember Maxie Walters telling followers to harass us in restaurants.

We remember the Presidents spokesperson being kicked out a restaurant.

We remember hundreds of Trump supporters physically attacked.

We remember Trump supporters getting Doxed, and fired from jobs.

We remember riots, and looting

We remember “a comedian” holding up the President’s severed head

We remember a play in Central park paid with public funding, showing the killing of President Trump

We remember Robert de Niro yelling “F" Trump” at the Tony’s and getting a standing ovation.

We remember Nancy Pelosi tearing up the State of the Union Address.

We remember the total in the tank move on the mainstream media

We remember the non-stop and live fact checking on our President and his supporters.

We remember non-stop in your face lies and open cover-ups from the media.

We remember the President and his staff being spied on.

We remember five Senators shot on a ballfield.

We remember every so-called comedy show turn into nothing but Trump hate fest.

We remember 95% negative coverage in the news.

We remember the state governors asking and getting everything they ask for and then blaming Trump for their problems.

We remember a Trump top aid verbally assaulted in two DC restaurants.

We remember people banging on the Supreme Court doors.

We remember that we were called every name in the book for supporting President Trump.

We remember that Hollywood said they would leave after Trump was elected but they stayed.

This list is endless, but you get the idea.”

Biden is free to select whoever he wants.

McConnell gets to decide. Pretty simple.

Biden is free to select whoever he wants.

You’re right Mr MaGoo has right to select whoever he wants. Though I believe it won’t be the best people for the position.

I think most people would. The unhinged fringe love belittling people who are more successful, well known and important than they are.

Yes its time to grow up. Elementary school kids give each other demeaning nicknames. Not mature adults. Maybe you are actually 9 years old in which case you get a pass. But my guess is that is not the case.

And no republicans did not keep quiet for 8 years of Obama. Even back then there were several nicknames like Obummer. There was the birther stuff. The muslim stuff. The gay rumors, etc. Trump ramped it way up.

Because you are not name calling does not mean you cannot discuss policy disagreements. You seem to think if you just call Biden, Biden somehow that means you agree with him. That is not true at all.

So far I trust Biden's picks more than Trump's. I don't see a single family member handed an appointment. That lack of nepotism alone is a refreshing change.

OP never stated any such thing. Go back and read the post!

Yeah, they have a "knee jerk" mentality. Well, with the pick of Kamala Harris (who is not black, and definitely not African American as they try to play up) I think it was obvious where the choices would go from there. Harris could get nowhere on her own in the primaries, so saying she is qualified to be VP with the chance of stepping into the presidency when Biden's last brain cell dies (fairly soon), speaks of how choices are being determined.

At this point, Biden is only playing "president", so I don't pay that much attention to anything other than how his play acting may end.

Why can't they be one and the same?
