Love doesn't see one's blemishes, but I'm starting to see Donald Trump's blemishes
It was easy to forgive him for being who he is a megalomaniac Quote:
I didn't think the tax breaks for the rich would work, but they did work for the Stock Market and the rich hiring more employees ... now that money will be needed to pay for the pandemic crisis. Trump lost big time like by 4 million votes and over 50 electoral votes Without a miracle Trump is on the way out and I personally don't want to hear about him anymore after January 20th I won't bash him I will just pray for our country to be healed and for the US Senate to stay strong against packing the Supreme Court or Medicare for all or open borders or forgiveness of student loans or amnesty or against fracking or pro-green to the tune of trillions of dollars. Thanks to everyone that chimed in I think it makes us a stronger forum

Not that I am aware of. But if one stands far enough on lets say the left side, the rest of the world appears to be right only, and vice versa.
For us foreigners from all across the world, the rifts in your society look deeper and wider than the great canyon, and I expect deepening hostility and deepening hurt from that, because Biden being there or being not there: I cannot see him "healing" it. The mutual hostility and the desire for retaliation and revenge, for pay-back, amongst Republican politicians around McConnell, will see to prevent serious "healing", so will the Trump clan whom I expect to not give up control of the party, but driving its fangs and claws deeper and deeper into it, they press for becoming another lasting dynasty in the American history of many political dynasties. If you see that assessment, due to its inherent pessimism, as "hyperbole", so be it. I have some historic examples on mind from Europe that make me being anything but optimistic - plus I have always differentiated between America as the idealistic utopia it was meant to be by its founders, - and the practical reality. The first I can mostly subscribe to - but from the latter that past four years have fundamentally alienated me. And I am not alone in that. I probably represent a global majority with that. The view of America has substantially changed, and not for the better. See, you do not have four years of Trump and then seriously expect the world not having reacted to that desaster and not having altered its view of the US - that would be absolutely demanded too much. That Trump was possible to happen, says something. And its nothing good. And it can happen again: easier than I am comfortable to imagine. To me, it was a psychiatrically ill madman being at the top of the remaining one superpower. A psychiatric patient. That this was possible to happen, is reason for biggest worries and should happen only in B-movies or top comedies. The fundaments on which it happened, have not changed or disappeared. It can happen again.

Designed for seniors and SSI for men and women that are already hurting and qualify for a need ... not for fat, middle class, men and women that have nice cars and $100 tennis shoes.
Fund the ER's all over America to the tune of $5 billion dollars a year that are in the red would be a better option.

You can be certain the GOP will do all they can to block Biden's agenda and make him a one term president. I have to admit I don't know why foreigners are so happy about Biden. You have to be pretty naive to think there will be substantial changes in U.S. foreign policy. For example, Biden will still try to kill Nord Stream 2 and pressure the Germans to stop being freeloaders and contribute their fair share to NATO.

Ok, the election has concluded. So, I suppose we can close this thread and direct all US political traffic to https://www.subsim.com/radioroom/sho...d.php?t=228628
