    Starts trade wars? Seriously? Biden has the world on the brink of WWIII, is making radiation pills for Americans to use, and you're talking about trade wars? Geeeeeeeeeez. No wonder you guys are getting smoked next Tuesday.

    Nope that's not would make you arrogant and dumb, what would is to belief the anyone who supports Trump is doing so just because he's dupped by him. Normal intelligent people can support him because he's better than the alternatives. There are people who are personally repulsive who have policies good for the country. Trump is such a man.

    Why don't you try telling us why people should vote for Democrats on Tuesday instead of going on a bad orange man rant who hasn't been in office now for about 2 years or better..... Oh that's right because they don't have a single damn thing worth voting for so talk about the bad orange man instead

    That's rich since you voted for the guy who incited a mob to attack democracy.

    That's rich given that your party puts as many obstacles between the voting booth and the voters in poor neighborhoods as possible. hell, in GA, you can't even bring your friend a bottle of water or food if he's been standing in line for a long time, which is likely if they are in a black neighborhood.

    NO democrat has ever done the following

    Let alone the scheme laid in the eastman memo:

    give me a break.

    Well, the real question is why should anyone vote for a republican? What do they stand for? zerio abortions and tax breaks to the super rich.

    It's like this, whatever your complaints are about dems, you don't have a leg to stand on when your guy was Trump and Trumpism.

    With that, you have no argument, whatsover. The reason to vote for a democrat is because we are not into Trumpism, which has infected the GOP.

    We lave lots of things to vote for. I'm in CA and this is the CA dem party platform

    This entire post depends on Trump equalling Republican. What if he isn't the candidate?

    Edited to add: Oh this is about mid terms? Why is that even about Trump then?

    If Republicans were running the show now I think we would see them crowing about how Putin is losing and how the west is defeating the commies again.

    Also surprised to not be hearing more about abortion and about Biden pulling troops out of the middle east, for good and bad, etc.

    If you had an actual valid point you wouldn't have to resort to such exaggerating and outright dishonest hyperbole such as zero abortions and tax breaks for the rich.

    If Joe Biden gave a s*** about the little guy he would get his neck off the gas and oil industry which would greatly help with inflation.

    They do claim to care about the little guy that they hurt the worst don't they?

    I'm at work so I don't have time to go through your entire post piece by piece but one thing stood out that you said.....


    Something about if you believe in good government you don't disparage people.

    Yet the president who's currently in the white house has repeatedly disparaged half of the American voting public.

    It has everything to do with both.
    So you are saying that FDR was obsequious to murderous dictators?

    I ask, because that would have to be true in order for you to ask that particular question.

    So, please provide evidence of that claim.

    traditionally the party out of power gains seats in off, years, i expect the repubs to gain a few seats, which will throw the spotlight towards trump, McConnell, and now desantis over whos in charge of the party, no legislation will have enough votes to pass a filibuster so nothing major will happen except confused bi caring

    It will be a solid victory even if it serves no other purpose than to tie the Biden administration's hands up for the next two years so they can't continue to inflict further damage.

    Trump did not incite anyone to riot or break into the capital or do anything illegal. I recognize it plays well in some circles but that fantasy meme is getting tiresome.

    The procedures some Republicans are putting in place are designed specifically and exclusively to secure fair elections and are not targeting any area let alone poor neighborhoods. It is easier to vote in GA than it is in Biden's state of Delaware.

    At least he wasn't going around attacking Democrat voters like Joe Biden attacks conservative voters on a near daily basis.

    He sat there and lied to the nation and said that he was going to unite us. He's a bigger divider-in-chief than Obama ever thought about being

    After so much info has become public how is it that you can maintain such silly beliefs?

    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/do...t-tried-illegally-disrupt-electoral-rcna21857

    ‘I’ve Had It With This Guy’: G.O.P. Leaders Privately Blasted Trump After Jan. 6

    In the days after the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol building, the two top Republicans in Congress, Representative Kevin McCarthy and Senator Mitch McConnell, told associates they believed President Trump was responsible for inciting the deadly riot and vowed to drive him from politics.

    Mr. McCarthy went so far as to say he would push Mr. Trump to resign immediately: “I’ve had it with this guy,” he told a group of Republican leaders, according to an audio recording of the conversation obtained by The New York Times.

    But within weeks both men backed off an all-out fight with Mr. Trump because they feared retribution from him and his political movement. Their drive to act faded fast as it became clear it would mean difficult votes that would put them at odds with most of their colleagues.

    On a phone call with several other top House Republicans on Jan. 8, Mr. McCarthy said Mr. Trump’s conduct on Jan. 6 had been “atrocious and totally wrong.” He faulted the president for “inciting people” to attack the Capitol, saying that Mr. Trump’s remarks at a rally on the National Mall that day were “not right by any shape or any form.”

    I only believe it because it is all factually true. You guys should quit conflating fantasy with reality.

    He orchestrated a coup. One that became violent. A multi-faceted plan to take control of the government against the will of the people. It was the most traitorous act in the country's history. There are pictures, videos, documentary evidence, witness testimony, it's a permanent stain for the nation now. There is plainly no denying it............accept for deniers of reality.

    Just because a bunch of others, including anti-Trump Republicans, expound the fantasy does not at all mean it is not fantasy.
