Biden will be 81, Trump will be 78...Trump acts like a demented maniac who we damn sure know - creates chaos every other day.

Biden doesn't create controversy or attempt to bend the constitution and normalcy to his own narcissistic needs.

Biden inherited:

The deadly mess of Covid19 which Trump (advocating weird cures and remedies like deworming paste for horses, disinfectants directly into the bloodstream & ultraviolet rays shot into people's orifices) claimed was a nothinburger, when in fact, Covid killed hundreds of thousands of Americans while Trump did NOTHING except babble about stupid remedies and moronic cures.

An 8 dollar increased US deficit - thanks to Trump and his egregious spending on wars (he inherited) and trillions of tax cuts for the wealthy (Trump instigated).

But all people are going to remember is - Israel bludgeoning the Gaza Strip. They won't remember Hamas killing and kidnapping over 1500 Israelis.

Vote for Trump and Trump's own criminal chaos or vote for Biden and Israeli chaos. And Ukraine chaos while Trump wanted to give 1/3rd of Ukraine to his puppet master - Putin.

Vote for Trump or anyone but Biden - and you give your thumbs up to more of this fucking bullshit.

This coming ROEvember will mark the beginning of the end of the Republican party. Trump's going into the dumpster fire of the rest of his life. The Senate is gaining Dem seats and the House will be swept by the blue tsunami which has been repeatedly coming ashore since 2018.

Fuck with American's civil rights and especially with abortion in the manner which they have - that's their death knell. Even MAGA/Republican women and girls have gotten abortions in the past and were quite thankful they had that right in their hip pocket at the time.

I've been a Democratic voter for 40+ years. I've seen good presidents and bad presidents. This is why I'm voting for Biden:

Secure Act 2.0

Veterans Act

Infrastructure Act

Inflation Reduction Act

CHIPS and Science Act

Cap on insulin costs for millions of Americans, not just a few thousand (like Trump did)

Medicare allowed to negotiate for better pricing.

Unemployment has been less than 4% for 23 consecutive months.

Stock markets are at new all time highs.

Inflation is heading downwards and the U.S. is doing much better than other countries.

Infrastructure is being upgraded in every state.

Job growth in Biden’s first three years outperformed any previous president.

330,000 new jobs added in March 2024

270,000 new jobs added in April 2024

3.56 million jobs added during Biden’s time in office.

The economy is growing at 5.2%, a faster rate than when trump was president.

The number of uninsured Americans hit an all-time low of 7.2% in the second quarter of 2023, while the number of people who signed up for an Obamacare plan for 2024 surged to 21.3 million.

Net worth has climbed under Biden.

By any measure, Biden has been an effective President, operating without weekly chaos and trying to tear NATO apart - and Biden has earned my vote for another 4 year term.

I campaigned in 2020 for Bernie Sanders right up until it was evident that Biden was going to be selected to represent the Democrats.

I'd still like to see Sanders and Elizabeth Warren in cabinet positions where they can provide their leadership and experience best.

The Israeli situation is not one of Biden's making - tell us how you'd handle things Mr Thorn, were you large and in charge.

The ongoing criminal conspiracy which is the Trump Organization. A mom & pop real estate company which never builds anything substantial at fair rates, as the Trump Org simply stiffs all the contractors who dare to work for Trump - and then they all get shafted. But, they know how to protect their backsides from Johnny Law:

I don't suppose anyone ever thought to unveil this new chatroom set up on a server which wasn't in production and thus live - so the admins could experiment and fine tune or make changes to what would be a 95% completed chat product before it was rolled out to the production chat servers. Like how 100% of the rest of the computing world (with any credentials and experience) would choose to roll out a new product. Instead this is like Microsoft rolling out a new OS and asking the current customer base to make suggestions to improve the lousy 1st efforts.

Only in America can a convicted criminal, serving time (not hard time) for his violation - get a fucking interview while in prison - so he can spew his thoughts for the Next Trump Dictatorship.

The polling was bad for Biden in 2020. There's more of us than there are of them and nobody has ever polled me or anyone I know.

Trump is getting rolled in November - prosecuted in all his remaining court cases and will probably be fitted with an ankle bracelet and get to spend all of his incarceration in that cockroach infested Mar-a-Lardo until he expires with his death rattle.

He'll get the Jeffrey Epstein imprisonment handshake deal.

Now it comes out that Alito, next to Thomas, one of the obvious degenerates wearing a robe on that court - was flying an American flag upside down - after the January 6th, 2021 insurrection.

And he isn't recusing himself from sitting in on any hearings involving Trump or those who tried to overthrow the government on that abysmal day.

SCOTUS has been rigged by the GQP for the last 20 years.

Damn, lack of headlines only in America. Where 18 people killed in a mass shooting doesn’t crack front page on any news network. Ick.

Except, this happened last October and was extensively covered by all networks for a few days.

It's been 21 years ago so many of you - might not even remember this, or know that it actually occurred. But -

James Comey, who was the Director of the FBI when Trump came into power - actually, once upon a time - gave people a reason to believe he was a 'good guy' when in fact, Comey was just another motherfucker - forcing his word and actions upon the American public. He seemed good - and then, 15 yrs later he fucked us and gave us Trump as President.

Biden and Comey and Obama & Garland and Bush and Trump: A group of motherfuckers nobody should have leading their country. But Americans have super short shelf life memories.

*note (Obama never actually did shit to help America, he just survived 8 years without being assassinated). And he leveled up on the Drone War flights to 'That Other Place Over Yonder'. 4 times more efficient using drones to bomb Iraq and Afghanistan than even George W. Bush.

And Trump - trumped them both.

Rowan is a sleeper. End.Of.Story.

Trump's campaigns are well known to never ask an artist if they could use a song an artist owns - so they can play it at their Trump rallies. They just go ahead and do that - until an artist complains (and even then, that doesn't stop them from stealing the work of someone who is extremely opposed to their campaign stances).

Why? Cuz Trump does whatever the hell he wants - without someone feeding him a knuckle sandwich about 30 years ago when he first started hijacking other artists songs to play at his beauty pageants and other media events.

He is the most miserable thief in the world (who has never been punished and incarcerated).

You may not agree, but if this is truly implemented and followed through - it'll be a first time - since Ronald Raygun was elected to the office of President in 1980, that the wealthier Americans and US corporations are put under the IRS microscope.

No better place to start than the billionaires who 'own' professional sporting teams (and they've also actively held American cities as hostages during negotiations for new stadiums to house their extremely profitable hobbies inside of).

The stock market needs to go away. When I say it crashes, it should not come back.

That's synonymous with saying: Legalized Casino gambling needs to vaporize and be no more.

Neither event will occur in our lifetimes. But it's a rosey thought.

This is revealing

A bunch of pervs escaped the same fate as Ghislaine Maxwell and especially Jeffrey Epstein. Still unknown members of law enforcement attempted to cover up those crimes by not investigating very long if at all. This freak needs to be thrown from a helicopter with no working 'chute.

These conservatives recently installed after being appointed by Trump are going to set this country back to the 1940s - doing their part to make America great again (for conservative Caucasians who claim to also be Christians). And they'll have plenty of assistance from Alito, Roberts and (blech) Thomas.

I came across this article this morning and after reading it I couldn't find any faults with the author's retelling of the events which occurred and landed Clarence Thomas on the bench for life, in 1991. I even learned a few 'minor things' which occurred in the background (because President Joe Biden steered them into obscurity - as he was working in concert with Republicans to land this particular jerkwad onto the court).

This is faithful to history for anyone who wants a refresher or younglings who were born in the 80s/90s/00s and never learned about this sordid chapter of appointing a new justice. His wife, Ginny - attempted to overthrow the 2020 election as well and he won't recuse himself from hearing anything related to that incident which comes before the court.

This author has made it his mission to find justice for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein - some of you may know of him.

Boeing isn't the only US corporation where greed rules over all else.

Here's a common load of horseshit with a bow and ribbon around it, courtesy of a great American Insurance company: https://www.cigna.com/medicare/shop-plans/medicare-advantage/

And here is the reality: https://www.propublica.org/article/cigna-medical-director-doctor-patient-preapproval-denials-insurance

Medicare Advantage Plans are fraudulent con-games designed to fleece people who think they can believe their insurance company's representatives.

You can roll the dice with flying on a Boeing jet and successfully reaching your destination without dying and you have better odds of success and ongoing health. These insurance companies are what Republicans used to call - DEATH PANELS

I welcome our pre-skynet Overlords.

Youtube still on the janky side within the forum, I see. Pity.

Immigrants get all the better paying jobs which ordinary Americans find too repulsive to entertain the thought of accepting.

Case in point...

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/democrats-look-strip-secret-service-protection-trump-convicted

House Democrats have introduced a bill that would strip Secret Service protection from convicted felons sentenced to prison, a move directly targeting former President Trump who is currently on criminal trial in New York City for alleged hush money payments made during the 2016 election campaign and faces several other cases which could land him behind bars.

Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., the former chair of the now disbanded Jan. 6 congressional committee, introduced legislation that would automatically nix Secret Service protection for those who have been convicted of a federal or state felony that carries a minimum one-year prison term. 

The proposed bill is provocatively called the "Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable (DISGRACED) Former Protectees Act.
