The Biden Administration and All Things Politics

Ya, he will inherit an economy on the rise and if he doesn't do anything drastic will likely have a nice economy. I think the economy is going to be pretty darn good for at least the next few years regardless of who wins the election. But he isn't going to end wars and civil unrest. he wont eliminate crime or immigration issues. He wont be able to control nature and prevent hurricanes and fires. He wont be able to prevent something random like another pandemic or whatever. Plus he will be himself which is an embarrassing hateful clueless douchebag who would be the oldest elected president of all time and surely declining mentally. We would get the luxury of blaming everything that goes wrong on him and making fun of all the stupid crap he says and does. Plus if he wins there is less likely to be violence stemming from the election than if he loses.
Silver linings.
There are a number of LGBTQ people in my life one way or another. I know that another Trump term will do nothing but make their lives worse. If that wasn't the case I'd almost be down for the clown show.
 
Buck tried for a while but there is just no defending the conservative side right now. But if you can refute what has been posted or provide a fresh perspective it is more than welcome.
Tried…? Successfully defended center views. But it’s just repetitive. It doesn’t matter how many times I will bring up a different point, majority posters here are filled with Trump hate they can’t even allow themselves to see things rationally.

I was the first to put out that I am anti-Kamala because of her past and present extremist views and how she is the worst candidate the democrats could put out.

What did that get me “You’re MAGA” “You’re a Troll” “you fake independent”. Just because I’m not apart of left and its views. I’m was a messenger about how bad a candidate she is; just take tonight’s basic interview that she just bombed.

I don’t feel welcomed here or heard. It’s so quick with troll, MAGA or now unsuccessfully defend the right. It’s impossible with majority of posters here to actually listen to the other side. Mostly it’s attacking rather than trying to learn.
 
Got my ballot in the mail today.
Filled it out, hopped on my bike, rode to the local rec center (of which I'm a member) and deposited it in the drop box (there were cameras right above the drop box for security reasons).
Then I kept riding down to the local library to read my book that I'm almost done with and then I will return it and get another (the book I'm reading is called The Girl Who Was Taken. It's really good).

What a great country I live in. Trumpers should check it out sometime rather than just listen to trump talk about how horrible it is. It's an amazing place to live. I'm blessed to have been born here.


P. S. On the ballot for president there was about 8 or 9 choices. One of the choices was for Lucifer Justincase Everylove.

What the ****? I thought there was a process and rules to getting your name on the ballot. Anyone know the story there?

Mail in voting? Rec center? Riding your bike on public roads? You’re basically a full blown communist now. I always knew you were a globalist elitist. But now I know you’re a commie.

Pretty much.

Funny story: I got called "woke" yesterday because someone asked me why I don't simply discard my latex gloves whenever I wash my hands and put on a new pair afterwards and I responded that I don't like wasting stuff cause they cost money and just contribute more to the landfill. That earned me the title of woke.

Guaranteed I wouldn't have been called woke over that if trump never existed

You make a couple fair points there, but do a disservice to yourself labeling Musk a racist and budding fascist. Anyone a potential threat that backs a conservative position is immediately labeled a racist or fascist. Don't tell me it's not true, I watched it ad nauseam for the last 8 years. Classic divide and conquer tactics the elites play to get normies all up in arms to do their foot soldier work. Back to Musk though: He is worth 250 billion, an immigrant himself, is building green cars, and designing reusable rockets to improve and progress humanity, but your stance is his real dream is just more power and to have a seat in 78 year old Trump's cabinet? That doesn't pass the smell test. The people I mention tell you WHY they are backing Trump. On the Harris side, you have Taylor Swift holding up a cat and "White dudes for Harris", millionaire celebs in gated communities with zero understanding of geopolitics.

The one strong policy Harris has is her 25K housing credit for first time buyers. Shelter is the last sticky inflation point and it somewhat evens the playing field against trillion dollar hedge funds from flipping or renting out.


Conservative position? There is no such thing as a "conservative position" anymore.

And there is no viable reason to back The Rapist. Was there a single reason to back Hitler? Not that I could imagine but then again you had Germans supporting him. I guess you're like those Germans.

Of course you probably have a reason. What is it? You looking to loot your immigrant neighbor's homes when Trump's SS take them away?

Last I checked, “conservative opinion” aka “******* paranoia” was telling rednecks to attack FEMA and that Haitian workers in Springfield were eating white peoples’ pets. Why would any sane person need to listen to that?

It would definitely be nice to see conservatives on here call their own tribe out. Instead, they waste their days showing their contempt for Democrats and liberals instead of trying to build anything conservative for their own side. They try to justify their views and voting habits every day on this website. They never address actual issues and mostly just copy and paste talking pts from their social media outlets. Never engage in good faith discussion either.

It would be nice if conservative thought and conservative people still existed. But to do so would mean siding with democrats now. Which, many have already done. Or fall in line with fascism, which is what most have done.

Funny thing is you go after what many of us already believe, that she isn't a great candidate. Very few people here believe she is a good candidate. But what you also did was, maybe inadvertently, defend and espouse Trump-ian politics in your denigration of Harris. That's where your arguments fell apart. Again NONE OF US LIKE HARRIS, SHE'S ABOUT THE WORST OPTION THEY COULD HAVE COME UP WITH, but she's a ****ing damn sight better than Trump.

And that's where it diverges. You prefer a known racist and misogynist and convicted felon and adjudicated rapist and corporate and billionaire shill and continual proven liar and insurrectionist and pretty obvious fascist to Harris. We don't. So yeah, your arguments fall ****ing flat. Hate her all you want, point out all the flaws, and none of them come close to saying "I'll be a dictator on day one", et al. They just don't. Unless you are fine with dictator trump and his racist misogynist fascist policies. And it seems you are.

They do exist. But now they are closer to the middle than they ever were before. Want to know why we have more people claiming they are "independent" than ever before? It's the disenfranchised traditional conservatives that make up a large portion of those. Like my parents, and countless other people I know. Where they still feel something of the familiar in what Trump stands for, enough that when their friends and family say they are voting for Trump they have to wonder, is this what it means to be conservative now? And that's why they are split. They don't know which way to go any more. My mom is a great example. She's shocked her friends and family want Trump, she sees what he did to the party and the country and will not vote for him. But damn it's hard to vote for a Democrat. She feels she has no choices at all that reflect what she believes. And that's very true. She'll vote for Harris though. Because she sees the danger Trump is. But she'll do so through gritted teeth.
