US Politics Thread 2016-2020

I'm by no means a Biden fan. I see him as an end to the most bizarre presidency I've lived through which goes back to Kennedy.

[bstanko6]

Bizarre?

Really?

You are ok with Cornpop?

Who is drinking cool aid here?

At least explain to me how Biden is not bizarre? Please? Help me see your point of view.

We need to get a pool going, to see how long prez cornpop lasts.

[bstanko6]

Yeah... How long until camel toe Harris takes over and turns this country into a disgusting crap hole like the town she came from!

What a mature response.

[bstanko6]

when her and Biden’s party respect election laws then I will respect them.

Really. The discussion here has devolved into whether Trump has the ability or mindfulness to put together a cogent, simple sentence or thought or if Biden has dementia and has our nuclear missile codes.

When it comes to politics the only thing that matters is policy and how an administration enacts that policy or proposes to enact it. Biden is naming his Cabinet choices. That is far more important than cornpop or suggesting that Trump should never be allowed to be anywhere near our nations secrets and safety.

What's going on here is childish.

Every four years the winner is the same.

I enjoyed all of that

A top member of US President Donald Trump's Republican Party, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, has congratulated Joe Biden on winning the presidential election last month.

Senator McConnell spoke after the electoral college formally confirmed Mr Biden's victory over Mr Trump.

The Democrat won 306 electoral college votes to Mr Trump's 232.

President Trump still refuses to concede, making unsubstantiated claims of widespread fraud.

No, the guilt is not to be equally shared. No, both parties did not do the same amount of damage. No, they are not both to be blamed the same way. The one side was and still is behaving much, much worse than the other, and doing much more serious damages.

Both sides are guilty of divisive rhetoric. But only one has consistently lied to the American people, enabled a dangerous wannabe autocrat, refused to recognize reality when it's inconvenient and attempted to steal an election that came off just the way it was supposed to, and against some steep odds during a pandemic: free and fair.
Biden is right that we need healing. But it's not both sides who have equally done damage -- only one of them has a lot of compensating to do.

Biden wll not heal this, he cannot. Only maybe depleting mindsets on the side of Republicans open a chance for change for the better. I cannot see that happenign any time soon, more likely said mindset fortifies for all time to come.
