What's new

2020 Presidential election

I think he was blaming trump for firing people that handle this type of thing and cutting funding and for responding later that he should have.

Considering political appointments and the general DC bureaucratic partisanship, exhibited so well in the impeachment hearings, maybe he should have. Obama didn't give a crap about qualifications, the decision criteria for hiring or appointments was political. Obama wasn't one of those cerebral collegiate with objective scruples, he was a clean-cut political hack, a bootlicker for whoever seemed relevant at the moment, and corrupt to the core. He and his "handlers" worked a number of very profitable market manipulations, and as a true "America Swamper" he gave loads of cash and other aid to his political project helpers, like Iran. And he got loads of payola from those who needed his favors. Obama was, I think, the spider working the web of the DumpTrump scandals, with plausible deniability of course. Still, his agencies looked the other way when Hillary and the DNC were buying the Russian dossier, when Hillary did her deal on the Uranium Russia wanted to buy, taking millions into her Clinton Foundation/Political Slush Fund in exchange. Obama used the illegal private server to do government business with Hillary, and his FBI goons saw that it would not be prosecuted, permitting the destruction of all the evidence on her cell phones and computers and servers.

All in all, Trump needs to be even more thorough in cleaning house and removing malevolent and lawless bureaucrats from our government agencies.

And, by the way, Trump didn't just fire the do-nothings, he got people who would actually do what's needed onto the job.

He also willingly and secretly let Iran into our financial system. Luckily the banks told his crooked *** to eat sand.
 
Also fortunately for us there are checks and balances in the government so the things a president supports is less important than the characteristics of the person who is president.

The socialism that you are afraid of won't happen if Bernie is president. Congress won't allow it.
But, we would have a hard working, sincere, compassionate intelligent man in the white House that isn't an embarrassment.

Capitalism would still be a part of this country under Bernie

If you're not embarrassed with Bernie, you're missing the whole point about politics. Marxism, and communism, and progressivism are all fake ideas with no useful reality except to those who can take advantage of ignorant or credulous people and get power with those pretensions. In power, totalitarians or whatever honchos you have, will always feather their own nests, and make you pay for it. Some are just crazier about it than others.

People who actually believe in the reality of these fake political philosophies don't understand human nature, and how people use power when they get it. It's really very simple. It doesn't matter what lie you sell, when you're in power you will use it personally and profitably.

The American political design, under the Constitution, was an effort to keep cliques and dictators from easily getting enough power to be really harmful. A vain and foolish dream, perhaps, but it is our only real hope for human rights, equal protection under the law, equal justice under the law, and the ability to do well for ourselves financially.

Bernie is just an old Red. He has used politics to provide his meals every day of his adult life, with neat little advertising monopolies he coerced political candidates to buy from his wife, at a nice price. Nobody should think he's nice, or has a good personality either. A goofy smile and vacuous platitudes is not "personality".

And, oh, what "Congress" won't allow "socialism"? Pelosi's house and Schumer's Senate??? AOC's rising YoungTurk/Soros star????

We had a communist President for eight years, and you didn't even know it. Yah, he didn't have Congress all his way, but he had a pen. And he had cronies in every closet in Congress and in the DC agencies. Hillary is a communist ideological believer. When you hear politicians talking about "Open Borders", they are reading a line from the Communist Manifesto.

Capitalism is simply the freedom to do your own business your own way. There is no Utopia that can be realistically imagined that can exist with human freedom, so when you see political honchos with plans to tell you what to do and how to do it, the dream is dead. I call all political ideologies a lie, because they are. And very bad lies.
 
Offering to help people who have been targeted for abuse is not saying they are limited in life.
Offering people to sell weed isn't really helping anybody. I'm all ears though. How does it help minorities outside of not getting put in jail? Is there some proof like in California or Colorado that minorities and blacks are now thriving?
 
Anyone who votes for this guy is in need of a brain transplant. The good news is that under his healthcare system that will be free, right?.

As opposed to a morality transplant for anyone who votes for the leader of the Birther Movement.

I'll hold my nose and vote Bernie every day.

And, yes, count on checks and balances.
 
protectionism. Selecting market winners and losers. Obstructing justice. No fiscal discipline. Largest size of government. Record deficits. Abandon allies. Disrespect the rule of law. Embrace dictators.

Lincoln spoke about the better angels of our nature

Reagan spoke of the shining city on the hill

trump has tricked the gullible into believing he is conservative. He is an incompetent embarrassment and will be remembered by history as such.
Yeah, you're right. Trump hasn't done a single thing that conservative's are in favor of. He is this evil genius who is actually doing the opposite of what they want and tricking them into believing they like it... except that he's not a genius, he's actually incredibly stupid. Good catch.

Isn't it interesting that Bernie has ranted against millionaires for his entire career and advocated for taxing them 100%, yet recently he made millions and he behaves exactly like any other capitalist because he has somehow convinced himself that in his case the riches are deserved.
 
Love that last line: "Health care in Nicaragua is now free. It's terrible. It's primitive. But it's now free." - Bernie Sanders

So, no health care is better than health care that if terrible compared to what we get (I noticed you left that bolded part out)?
 
Offering people to sell weed isn't really helping anybody.

Helping people run a profitable business is not helping them? When did you become anti-capitalist?

I'm all ears though. How does it help minorities outside of not getting put in jail? Is there some proof like in California or Colorado that minorities and blacks are now thriving?

You mean, you want comparisons of those of the median wage of those who were not imprisoned with those who were? If not, what are you asking for here?
