Agreed with the need for better candidates. The big difference to me is that there was no draft in Harris youth and Trump actively avoided it. Bone spears after 4 college deferments? Really?
Biden avoided going to Vietnam with 5 deferments- what's your point? IF trump had bone spurs and they were chronic, the deferment would have been the same and he wouldn't have made it through boot camp but as a college student, he may have had the connections to get a post outside of the battle zones. Who knows?
My point from another post- people are bickering about candidates who didn't go to war when the new "historical first' candidate didn't go because "there was no war in Harris' youth", but she could have enlisted if she had wanted, like many. The ads I hear and see say that she knows about being middle class and she worked at McDonalds. Yeah, that qualifies her.
I'm tired of hearing about a candidate who's making history because she's the first Woman, First Black woman, first Asian woman, etc to be nominated. None of those are actual qualifications and if she wants to make history, she could :
Fix the US education system- the US used to be at/near the top of World rankings, but we're fat from that, now.
Establish functional diplomatic relations with countries that hate us. Yeah, it's a gigantic task, but it needs to happen. Putin, the Middle East, China, North Korea- all are causing chaos and problems that will never be solved on their own, or by the choice of any one of the leaders.
Stop bullshitting potential voters by saying that she'll solve a list of problems. At best, she might make a dent. Obama didn't solve anything and I doubt anyone would consider her as his equal.
Crime needs to be addressed sensibly and effectively, period.
She now says she'll improve the economy. If Biden did such a good job, why does she need to do this? It's because HE DIDN'T.
She says that the border will be a priority- they said they were doing better than Trump, but the first thing he did is reverse Trump's border policies and that allowed a helluva lot of people of many origins that aren't just from the South of the US into the country. Many are bad people, like it, or not. Not all, but enough to cause problems and the news is filled with reports of this, so don't just attack my comments- look for it.
Speaking of immigration problems, look at Great Britian and Europe- it seems that the open borders policy in the EU aren't working so well, now.
She said she wanted to pump $10 Trillion in Carbon tax during her 2020 campaign- where the eff is that money supposed to come from? She thought we could be Carbon neutral by 2030- a ridiculous goal.
Better candidates would deal with the real world, not some made up fantasy with them saving the planet all by themselves and people need to stop believing the Bullshyte.
