I feel sorry for the American voting public that have to put up with what their media considers newsworthy between now and election day.

All media owners are voting Trump , they don’t want to pay taxes

     Here's a tissue for all of you crying crocodile tears.  Meanwhile, Biden ends a long and distinguished career in public service knowing he saved America, and democracy, from another term of the worst president in history when he defeated Trump in 2020.   Now, a younger generation to do the same in 2024.

Biden is just a typical example of an older person who is losing their marbles. Dementia diseases stands at #7 out of the top 10 causes of death - so no surprise that Biden is not all there. Like many with dementia, he can't reason logically and needs a third party to take action on his behalf.  Time to retire.

Biden is a career crook..   good for nothing ( except selling out his own country )

and his cackling hen of a vp..     useless,,,

Perhaps consider the possibility that you can disagree with a person's policy ideas and still respect them.  Ask yourself why hate is needed.  Who benefits?

I sort of feel sorry for Joe as a person, and because of what they put him through. He was out of it, for the most part.

Over the last 48 hours, Harris has been derided as a radical California liberal; she has been smeared as a “DEI” candidate; she has been denigrated as a “mistress” for her previous relationship with former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown, even though it occurred after Brown was separated from his wife and was not a secret; she has been ridiculed for her laugh and described as unlikeable; she has been characterized as having been too tough on crime as a prosecutor, but also pro-illegal immigration; she has had her candidacy labeled a “coup”; and she has been subjected to commentators mocking even the pronunciation of her name, among other things.

So basically politics.

She may very well be unlikeable if you go by the turnover of her staff. More than 90% have left since 2020.

 

Is this true ? Damning if so. Seems might even be higher than the Bad man.

Very true. We had to have that conversation with my father after he had a stroke. It was not pleasant...  Imagine how peaceful life would have been if Joe has simply stated he was not standing for re-election BEFORE the Democratic primaries started. Plus better for the country overall, America is now showing its ass around the world and people are not impressed.

America has kinda been the worlds leading political circus from day 1 that Trump was taken seriously as a Presidential candidate, the man's a deranged clown with nil political skills, the world could see that but insanely half of America could not, lets just hope wiser minds prevail come November

I disagree. Trump has excellent political instincts. Love him or hate him, you have to admit it. The way he has reshaped the GOP into a more inclusive and populist party has been masterful. His rallies attract thousands of people, they are fun and he is great at reading the crowds.  It is an easy dodge to simply say, "half of America is stupid", but YOUR half is smart.

No way! He has been stealing from us for years. He needs to go to prison from his office along with the rest of his family!!!

To me, the most surprising thing is the sense of fun and love and unity you see when the press actually visit a Trump rally.  To listen to the MSM, I'd expect a bunch of angry people ready to burn stuff down.  But you only see that at lefty rallies.
