    Or, it could be a vote that says, "Well, if it must be an old white senile imbecile, then let's try a new one. This other guy sure isn't doing the country any favors."

    That's the more likely reason, TBH.

    If the republican party fails to concur with Trump's insistence on pragmatism and good economic results, disregarding good intentions and touchy feely, they are going to the dust bin of history.

    Can you really not see the difference between the two, regarding mental acuity?

    I think Biden has a slight edge, but it's not by much. Their gaffs are so similar, we could play, "guess which old guy said it," and it could prove difficult. "Some of them are good people/some of them are bad people," etc.

    Even still, if I had to choose between two drunk uncles, I'd rather have Uncle Happy Drunk instead of Uncle Angry Drunk.

    If you honestly look at it you will notice that both sides can and have avoided compromise. Whe? Usually when one side holds all of the cards.
    Nancy is not motivated to compromise just like Mitch is not and Newt didn't nor What's his face the Democratic Party guy before Mitch. As far as the Constitution goes Republicans tend to interpret and/ or hold certain parts of the Constitution "sacred" the Democrats other parts.
    The Republicans will stand firm of gun rights the Democrats on woman's reproductive rights.

    For you to say that only Democrats will not or have not compromised is as foolish and wrong for a Democrat to claim that only Republicans do not compromise. This is why there are honest moderate thinks in each party, albeit few of left in either party.

    Trump didn't just beat the Democrats, he also beat the GOP establishment.
    Not your most insightful commenting.
    Fake News - Our system provides for sensible regulation.
    How cute, from a German after Germany supplied Saddam's banned weapons programs.

    Oh, you are just cross because he's slowly weaning freeloading Germany from the US taxpayer's teat.

    Once you feel the pride of standing on your own two feet you'll be the first to thank him! You have a lot to look forward to.

    Conservatives think there are already the right number of likenesses on Mount Rushmore.

    Your response didn't deal with any of the points you quoted.

    i) Trump didn't just beat the Democrats, he also beat the GOP establishment.

    ii) Our system provides for sensible regulation.

    iii) Germany supplied Saddam's banned weapons programs.

    https://fas.org/nuke/guide/iraq/cw/az120103.html

    iv) Trump's gently weaning freeloading Germany from the US taxpayer's teat.

    v) Once Germany feels the pride of standing on their own two feet they'll be the first to thank him!

    Notice everytime someone "famous" comes out and says this, they never say WHY they are voting for Biden but instead only say why they are NOT voting for Trump? I would love for just one week, for it to be all about POLICY like its supposed to, and then we can finally get some real solutions to problems.

    Right? Two main choices in November and neither of them can speak coherently. Blech.
