Unfortunately @Mikey is right, Biden is probably unfit and it’s worsening. However, Trump has displayed traitorous behavior and is totally without honor to hold the office. The only happy ending to this sad battle of bubbleheads is Biden withdraws and trump is convicted. Or maybe it’s the reverse. Either way works. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And timing has to be part of the calculus on whether to prosecute. If they can’t convict before the election don’t be an idiot and indict - you’re just making him a more of a Christ figure to the nutties. And adding more and more non nutties who don’t like the persecution optics. Same with the impeachments - if you don’t have the votes, don’t. I understand the idealistic rule of law comeback to this. But it’s time people start getting practical quick. Net, net - DAs and dems: is what you’re doing getting you what you want? Because at this point, it’s the exact self destructive opposite. Bro, I have tried to make everyone see this but when it comes to trump, they lose their minds and go almost as crazy as trump. Constant investigations just make him look like a martyr. Fling enough poo and one day something may stick. So they may actually damage him, purely by mistake it would seem, at some point. My problem with all this is that random unwinnable impeachments are now SOP. They are forever with us. And we can thank Newt Gingrich et al for starting this descent into political hell and Adam Schiff for making dull-boring-unwinnable-unlikeable-impeachment hearings SOP. One day we are going t have to cry wolf and the American People will just be too tired of it to give a damn. I actually hope they do damage trump enough to kill his nomination. It wont change one thing. The next Rep that gets nominated will get exactly the same treatment. That is a foregone conclusion these days. Smearing and demonizing your opponent is now just Politics 101 in America. Edited August 22, 2023 by DKW 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asked a nurse nearing retirement age what her plans are the other day. She said due to current economic conditions/Biden no plan in sight. Had no problem telling me Biden had turned $414,000 of her retirement into $320,000 and she has yet to catch up. “unfitness” pretty much a disease and a thing in Washington so no big deal in the minds of some folks when it comes to Trump. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference between the left and the right (on a personal level) is the right believe the left has ideologies that are flawed, but doesn’t hate the person with those ideas. The left believes the right is wrong on their ideology and attacks the person with those ideologies.

IMO they are not very engaged at all other than the obvious news and current events, economy, etc. Everyone is not on your level politically and that does not mean they are idiots. You’re not going change the “Maga cultist” and they alone are not going to elect Trump. Combined with the group I mentioned and he could very well be your president again. Not all the Germans who supported Hitler were Nazis either. That doesn't mean they weren't complicit in the consequences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
