when i was in high school a few students stole the history class final semester test. they passed it around. i and half the class declined to look at it and took the test. I wasn't penalized. a few students were but not many.

this taught me a lesson...some cheat and others don't.

Everyone knows Medvedev was Putin's lackey. Obama surrendered to Russia and Putin so many times that it's not funny. When Romney tried to warn Obama about Putin in 2012, Obama ridiculously retorted something stupid along the lines of that "the 1980s called and wanted their foreign policy back"

Wrong.

What Biden claims he based his decision to run on is a lie (that Trump referred to neo Nazis and White nationalists as very fine people). I listened to every second of video from that day, repeatedly. He was talking about the statue removal debate (very fine people on both sides). He even said that he wasn’t including the neo Nazi and white nationalists...that they are to be condemned totally. Both Jake Tapper and Micheal Smerconish of CNN eventually admitted that point is correct. Even Don Lemon did for one day...and made the point he should have been making (IMO) all along that can be debated....that there isn’t any material difference for the lives of black people between the neo Nazis/White nationalists and the people who think the statues shouldn’t be torn down. The next day Don Lemon went back to his previous shtick (the lie). Not that it should matter, but I say all of this as someone who dislikes both Trump and Biden, am neither an R nor a D, and didn’t vote for either of them.

^^^^^

Irrelevant.

Plenty of people who criticize Trump aren’t Democrats/Obama voters.

Everything isn’t ‘Us vs. Them’.

Perfectly relevant. Trump has been harsher on Russia with sanctions, etc., than Obama and previous presidents have been, and yet leftists (and given that Trump still maintains overwhelming majority support among Republicans, noting a few Republicans who engage in similar attacks on this issue isn't really saying much as you can point to a few within your party for every administration) feel content pushing a ridiculous line that Trump is in bed with Russia Meanwhile, we had a president on stage mocking the threat posed by Russia and telling the Russian president to tell Putin that he'd have more "flexibility" once he was reelected, in addition to abandoning our allies in Eastern Europe over missile defense issues due to Putin's outrage. And somehow Trump is in bed with Putin?

Note, I can expect actual partisans to be, well, partisan on these issues. But the same mainstream media that attacks Trump with foolish Russia headlines (including pushing a nonsensical and now discredited "collusion" line)--all while claiming to be impartial--never lifted a finger to attack Obama--despite all of his gestures toward Russia--in a similar vein. From this perspective, yes it is "us vs. them," precisely because the media has made it that by going along with the leftist line.

If an honest media was doing its job, you shouldn't have to rely on only conservative media outlets to attack Obama on this issue. The media gave Obama a pass on so much. You can say the same about Fox News on some things for Trump, but Fox News and other conservative outlets are nowhere close to being a majority of the media.

Yes, Obama proved you could con your way into the Whitehouse regardless of race or background.

Now he enjoys his 7 figure books deals while his supporters enjoy a $600 stimulus check from liberal lockdowns.

I remember in my senior high in my senior high several national Honor Society Honor students were caught cheating on trig tests. They got off easy and weren't failed or reported because of the damage it would cause them and the school.
I'm glad cheating like this is exposed at least in military academies even if it runs rampant in other elite Univeristies.
