I used to think Ana Kasperian (sp?) was just an idiot who is easy on the eyes.  She's come around to make sense on quite a few topics.  And she's still easy on the eyes.

 

 

they made a video detailing joes mental state over the last 4 or 5 years. quite informative especially the parts where dems talk about how bad he was even back then.

not at all. my problem is that it is well documented even as far back as 2019 he was in rough shape. 

 

go watch the young turks spell it out in a video they just made. lots of facts there to back up what i am saying. 

 

i have made it quite clear on multiple occasions that neither of the ass clowns should be anywhere near the white house. 

He held his own well enough in the 2019 debates.

 

To me, his age then did not matter because he had a competent cabinet. Reagan and Eisenhower were not all that functional at the end of their presidencies either.

 

Unlike Trump, who surrounded himself with toadies, and got rid of anyone who dared disagree with him.

That same competent cabinet also propped him up for the next few years though. Not good.

A day late and a dollar short.

 

A dollar short? Actually, many dollars short if you live in Thailand and bring money from the US into the country. Trump intends to deliberately devalue the dollar. It's going to happen. He did it last time he was in office. Trump intends to cut your income if you're in Thailand on SSA or any other US pension.

You have a written statement from Biden, and it's in world mainstream media.

Why should it matter how he resigns?

 

"This is not the way we do it in American government".

 

IIRC Trump governed by tweet from day one of his presidency.

 

 

 

 

Good analysis.

You have identified the problem with this governance.

The competent cabinet got the economic numbers going a lot better than many other countries,  despite the wailing Greek chorus coming from the GOP.

The funniest aspect of all of this is reading posts from Trump fans. They’re all pretending that Harris will be a walkover, but reading between the lines they are defecating in their pants. 
 

The whole campaign was based on berating an old man for getting old … now Donnie Diaper is the oldest person ever to challenge for the Presidency. 
 

Another factor that is evident is the number of women of all races who are getting behind Kamala. 
 

It looks like Trump peaked after the “fake” assassination, it’s all downhill from here. He’s even threatening to pull out of the next TV debate … that’s how frightened Trump is.

So who has been running the show then ? Clearly he wasn't and the praise should not go to him but those who actually were.

You've got Blinken, Sullivan, Austin, Yellen and Powell, all solid performers. It's a team effort.

History will not be kind to Biden. 

 

He couldn't quit until he did a deal with Harris. Hence the announcement followed later by the endorsement. 

 

His price for leaving was a guaranteed pardon for Hunter after the tax trial. September is going to be dominated by influence peddling and money laundering testimony at the California trial. 

 

Hunter cannot be pardoned before election day, the electorate won't like that. Biden can't quit before Harris is officially nominated at earliest. So there's a narrow "pardon" window. 

 

Here's the problem for Harris. She's going to get hammered by the GOP asking if she has agreed to pardon Hunter. 

 

Joe has handed her a bag of angry rattlesnakes during election season. Well done, Joe. 

 

My prediction. Trump is his own worst enemy and hatred of Trump will see him defeated. The only way he wins is if Harris has an utter meltdown. Or if Trump has an October Surprise lined up. 

 

I've already seen a week's old video where Trump said Biden was standing down and Harris was replacing him. He's of the opinion she'll be easier to beat than Biden. 

 

People saying Trump is terrified have got it wrong.

That's all they are doing is talking. Harris will not get the nod. If she does, maybe she can get mayor Pete as a running mate. 

 

I heard as part of Biden's deal for stepping down, that Dr. Jill would be the next Surgeon General and Hunter for Attorney General. 

 

Word is she'll bring in Willy Brown as Chief of Staff.

Another aspect. Harris is not a good debater but she knows how to ask prosecutor style questions. I watched her at length during Senate hearings around 18/19 and I tipped her as a good Presidential candidate along with Amy Klobuchar. 

 

I was amazed to the extent she blew her campaign to pieces. Apparently her sister alienated the campaign staff and she was as welcome as a fart in a spacesuit in elite Dem circles after attacking Joe. 

 

Her nomination will be a procession but there's something wrong in the background. Certain Dem power blocs are already sabre rattling. 

 

We'll see.

I'm not sure what's worse - the fact that it seems to be a surprise to you that Biden has a team working with him behind the scenes or that, knowing they've done a great job, you're still pissed.

I don't think they've done a great job, I think they've done a terrible job, but I'm not a leftist.

 

I can understand why you think they've done a great job.

That's a reasonable response. The only think I'd really push back on is the employment, market and economy figures are pretty much fact. You don't need to be on the left or the right to compare the US's performance against its peers to judge whether a good job has been done or not.

 

Indirectly that points to my main gripe with MAGA (and many other political parties worldwide, but MAGA of course just has to go bigger than anyone). Bi-partisan politics does not exist for them. If the left has suggested something then it MUST be bad and it cannot be judged on its merits. Just look at what happened to Mike Johnson as soon as he made any kind of deal with the Dems to get the job done. MTG comes along and wants him out. Mike Johnson is about as right wing as you can get and the bad built, butch body, bleach blonde one wants him out.

[bubblegum]

So you cult people want to be like Hungary. The flee in Europe's fur. Why not be America ? 

And tell me pls. why do so many of the cultist hide who visits their profiles? Don't want others to see who you are talking to? What's the name again of your handler? Igor?

It depends on how you look at jobs and economy as well. 

 

 

What peers does the US have economically?

It is a shame that the Republicans are not able to get in lockstep like the Democrats. Nancy was nothing if not a stern taskmaster.

I guess you could argue that both ways. No peers because of the size of the GDP or every other western democracy. Either way, the figures are positive.

Sounding more and more like a one trick pony. Biden must be on something, now Harris must be on something. Interesting that you give Trump a free pass. Have you not cast your critical eye over his speeches? The ones that make me laugh the most are when he tells us all about his intelligence test results.

Right that's a no then. Here's the deal folks,  JUST ONE VIDEO !

But a majority of voters have long had an unfavorable view of her. She has trailed Mr. Trump in nearly every national and battleground state poll conducted so far this year. In the most recent New York Times/Siena College poll of Pennsylvania, just 42 percent of likely voters said they viewed Ms. Harris favorably — well short of the 51 percent who had a favorable view of Mr. Biden in the state ahead of the 2020 election. It’s even lower than the 46 percent who said the same for Mr. Trump in the recent poll.

What's the prize, and who (other than yourself) decided that you're the judge?

 

You think Harris is on drugs? What's your point? Are you serious? Are you on drugs? Here's another deal, post one video of yourself, JUST ONE, to convince the rest of us that you're not a loon.
