I don't think you actually understand the drumph if you think he could have been any other way as far as decency goes....what you see is what you got (altho I have looked at this guy for many many years to get an idea of the low quality)....while am not a fan of a Biden this old, but vs drumph as said, not even a question.

Oh, I understand Trump and his lack of any redeeming qualities. I was just saying that he could have been an ok president but of course he didn't, and it got worse as his term went on. I agree I don't want Biden, but anyone is better than Trump. Except maybe Desantis.

Kind of meaningless I'm afraid. Trump has a 30 pt lead. I'm sure some voters care, but overall most voters don't.

People need to start to realize that if they vote for one party, they really need to think in terms of the VP because I don't think Biden will be capable in a second term. I really don't want to see Harris as POTUS because she hasn't done anything as VP that might prepare her for the position. I don't see anything that would make her a good candidate.

Neither party has a good candidate- we're not in a good position on the World stage and it's not looking good for our position to improve, especially with Putin, Kim Jong Un and Xi Jinping around, they WILL pounce on any opportunity to hammer us.

Trump will get the nom if he isn't in prison. He and DeSantis are the only two that display strength (antithesis would be being a dickhead LOL). DeSantis has screwed up royally though by going further right. If indicted then maybe DeSantis. Unless voters decide on a "nice" candidate. It's really Trump's though. It always was.

Guess I don't really get why every politician refuses to say if the evidence is there for a prison sentence than why not if they broke the law. Trump or Biden to be honest. Like oh no we can't send a president to prison. Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! What's the deal. As a dream it would be pretty funny though. You're on nat'l tv and say, Ah truck him. He's a corrupt pig. Let him rot.

You mean President Biden or his son?

Either.

 

[Trell]

Either.

So you want President Biden to go to prison for what, exactly?

I'm not saying he should go. I'm saying if he did as an example.

Trump even in prison could still win the nomination if the courts don't prevent it. As there are currently no legal obstacles to running for president as a convicted felon or even from behind bars. like WTF !

They're politicians- they say things, but not if it will cost influence and if they don't look ahead, they can't ask for favors form the ones at whom they pointed their bony fingers. Or, fat fingers- depends on who's pointing.

They're politicians- they say things,

Got that right in the US Congress or any politician for that matter, they say things to keep their paycheck or to win votes if it suits them politically.

OTOH, they sometimes say things with no apparent thought that it might come back to bite them in the a$$. Campaign promises are not to be believed and when questioned, they say "Things have changed" or "That was taken out of context", when accused.

Sick of this.

The BIG difference between the MAGA base and the Peeps who voted for Biden is the Biden peeps will abandon him in a heartbeat if found guilty of multiple felonies. The MAGA nutjobs will support Trump no matter what he does. Truly astonishing, it's like they need a cult leader. Notice I did not say all Republicans.

Certainly no fan of Turtle Man, but poor Mitch looks to be in some serious trouble.

A few minutes later, the Senate minority leader walked back to the news conference by himself.

Agreed no fan but I wish him well. At least he tried to keep the senate relatively sain while the house descended into madness.

A cult needs a leader, or they come apart.

Another tragic example of a person were old age is taking its toll, and quite frankly, the US Senate is not an assisted living institution for old people.

Agreed. I wonder who they will support when Trump finally goes away. I'm afraid that MAGA or some flavor of it will continue. Scary.

They’ll get someone with impulse control as well more intelligent, but still a vile person and an even bigger threat to democracy.
