Joe Biden says "I was instructed to call on reporters, I have a list".

You're right...

Both parties are a huge embarrassment.

 

Their selective memory has forgotten all of it. But ask them about the fake IRS scandal during Obama's admin and they'll remember it for the next 30 years.

 

Some of his tweets.

 

If that's really all you disagreed with then I don't see how your opinion of him is valuable in the slightest. I can name a dozen real, policy issues or political actions I strongly disagree with for every major candidate I've ever voted for. Folks who can't name at least three significant policies/actions of their candidates that they strongly disagree with, as far as I can tell, don't really know anything about the politicians they support. That, or they let their attachment to a politician determine what they think is right rather than the other way around.

 

Three things?
1) He was a meanie and I hate him.
2) He was a meanie and I hate him.
3) He was a meanie and I hate him.

Theres 3 solid Dems reply’s. And let me add, He was a meanie. And did I mention that I hate him?

…..and he’s orange. A mean Orangeman and I hate him.


Orangeman bad

 

... Oh, I see. It's supposed to be a joke, right? Like the funny kind, but different.

 

We have to start somewhere. The longest journey begins with the first step. Biden is not the complete problem -- just the symptom -- the problem is the voters and the media who went for people like Biden and stick with the career politicians who put their pocketbooks ahead of the country and the people.

 

Trump didn't do his job. He said aloud "I take no responsibility at all". To date, he has still NEVER acknowledged all the people that died of COVID on his watch.

Maybe we have different definitions for what a "real president looks like" because he is certainly NOT it. He's actually a traitor to our country and I'm flabbergasted that Americans who truly love their country are not only watching but rationalizing his every effort to burn the place down.

 

The reporters are no longer asking questions, they are trying to drag the situation into an argument- dictating the conditions and rules of the news conference rather than respecting them or the president.
You wouldn't have noticed that because you do the same thing. Biden on the other hand doesn't allow tough questions to be asked in the first place, IF he takes questions at all. You approve of that, because you helped promote the candidacy of this clown who is now embarrassing America in front of the entire world- and the more honorable of his supporters are abandoning him and accepting the responsibility for gross misjudgement.

Biden, for all intents and purposes is politically dead. He's taking the left with him. The very things we were warned about and any clear thinking person knew were likely to happen from a Biden presidency are now taking place- Total self-destruction in only 8 months. When you can't run with the big dogs, you should stay on the porch. When you can't run with the small ones either, you should stay in the basement.

Do you miss Trump yet?
You will.

 

Why should Trump be blamed for a single covid death?

1. He closed borders with China quickly.
2. He responded to the ppe shortage left by Obama and made sure states had supplies.
3. He had operation warp speed.

If Trump can be blamed for covid deaths then Obama can be blamed for H1N1 deaths and he waited 5 months to call that a pandemic.

My point was Trump never needed permission to talk to reporters because he was the president. Biden is just a puppet so who is in charge?

 

Here's the analysis. You are welcome to refute it with something other than platitudes.

100% of COVID deaths were avoidable, since it was made in a lab.

 

If Biden had instructions to follow then I still don’t see a point to announcing that
Like why go out of your way to look weaker?
Just seems strange

 

And my point is Trump took questions from friendly news outlets and gave fawning sycophant "news" stations like Faux far, far more access to interviews because he knew he'd be thrown softball questions.

For the second time in three days, President Trump turned to reporters from news outlets considered friendly to the administration to ask questions at a brief White House news conference.

Trump took two questions from American news organizations on Monday in a joint appearance with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Neither question touched specifically on two pressing issues: the fate of Trump’s embattled national security adviser, Michael Flynn, and Trump’s semipublic discussions at a dinner Saturday night of confidential information about North Korea’s test of a new ballistic missile.

Instead, reporters Scott Thuman from Sinclair Broadcast Group and Kaitlan Collins of the Daily Caller asked Trump open-ended questions about trade, immigration and national security.

Biden needs a list because he cannot even remember names, in addition to needing the softball questions. He says a name, and looks around the room like a dunce until someone starts talking. You see this over and over with Biden.

 

Xoes killed 225,000 Americans from covid alone and in 7 Months time. That’s with having the Trump vaccines.
Think how many Xoe would have got if DaTrumpsta didn’t get the vaccines out as soon as he did?
Speaking of Xoes covid deaths, are they giving the illegals at the southern border tests and sending them back if positive? Are they giving them the vaccines? How many Americans will die needlessly due to Xidens non border policy’s? Are the tracers watching the illegals? You and I both know that is not gonna happen.
225,000+ and counting Xoe.

 

At the time Trump closed the border, the Woodward recordings weren't public. That means only Trump, Woodward and a few of their staff members probably knew about what was really going on.

He was the President of the United States, the most powerful position in the world. He closed borders and back-pedaled with Pelosi start yammering. He had an obligation to do what he thought was right irrespective of anybody else's opinion. And, since he was the ONLY one (minus the above) that knew how bad it was, he had an even bigger obligation to shut it down and let the chips fall where they may.

I'm hardly a Trump fan, but I absolutely would have stood behind him on that call.

I like to read quotes and like this one. "It does NOT matter what they call you. It only matters what you answer to."

....so let Pelosi bitch away. Who cares? And, since when does Trump give a damn about other people's opinions? He's never listened before.

You will not find a post in which I've ever denied either of those.

Agreed. I make decisions based on facts and my assessment of them is not fluid or dependent on the party of the person making the choice.

Wrong is wrong. Right is right. Full stop.

The way it works is this: There are countless nameless, faceless people that are only responsible for keeping the President up-to-date on everything important. There are legal teams that review all statements BEFORE they are ever spoken aloud to the public. This is across the board the way it works everywhere. Police departments, hospitals, everywhere.

The reason it is done this way is to make sure nothing is said that could result in future lawsuits or negative press. [This is why manufacturers scrambled to publish press releases after President Trump made the comments about disinfectants - huge liability].

Think about where you work. I don't know where you work or what you do but I'm going to assume you aren't independently wealthy and have some type of gainful employment. Now, think about your supervisor and the executive managers. Stay with me here, Matthew. Do you want the President of your company delivering mail and making photocopies? Do you want the Board of Directors doing janitorial work? Do you want supervisors working in the cafeteria? Since you seem to be sane, I'm going to also assume your answer to those questions is "No."

There is a reason for that.

All the people that work BEHIND the scenes to prepare our President for his day give him all kinds of information. It's not realistic to expect him to MEMORIZE it all. That's WHY they have the behind-the-scenes people do all that work.

And, if you think about it. The ONLY reason this looks "incompetent" or "like puppetry" is because Trump never stayed on script. It was well-known that he wouldn't even read the daily briefings. He admitted he doesn't like to read. Going off script is his style (but that's NOT the norm or the procedure).

Go back and watch any other President (outside Trump). Every single one of them had notes. Yes, some were more eloquent in how that information was presented but they didn't all just memorize a gazillion things every morning before speaking on camera.[/quote][/QUOTE]

 

Xoe?

Don't you mean Xo Bi Den ?

You guys crack me up sometimes!

 

Let's tackle one at a time. Border detentions: The SCOTUS recently ruled this administration has to abide by them. We need to be able to sort out parents and kids, and we need to be able to process them. The centers can definitely stand for more improvement however.

NATO relations: The affair in Afghanistan is the proof that the NATO alliance was and is obsolete. I bet you never thought it'd be Joe Biden to put the final nail in the coffin of the European-US military alliance(well, alliance in name only because the Europeans are pansies who need us to do the heavy fighting for them.)

I'll actually do you one and agree with you on the government staffing, though not for the reason you're expecting. It's true that several posts were understaffed, but that never concerned me as much. Understaffed didn't necessarily mean underachieving. In fact, maybe in some capacities a smaller government/less overhead might be better. I think it's dependent upon the situation.

But here's why I say I agree: Trump early on tried a team of rivals. After a bitter, destructive campaign(as per Trump's usual) he somehow thought it would interest his cabinet to invite a bunch of neoconservatives and try to basically get them to buy into Nationalism.

Suffice it to say as we know through the resistance, it was not to be. Given this, and given that he was a one term President anyway, he should have pushed through even harder. Complaints about any particular nominee? Screw you, elections have consequences. He should have gone full blown nationalist, and if the establishment didn't like it, they didn't like anything anyway.

But he tried to play both sides, and got burned by both sides. That was his undoing of his entire administration.


He didn't cause the government shutdown in 2018. I blame that spectacle on Speaker Pelosi, as Trump offered offer after offer, but the Speaker was adamant: No wall. The Speaker in my mind is responsible for the shutdown. Trump even offered a DACA deal for the security provisions, but because they were 'temporary'(or something along those lines), Pelosi never heard of 'take a step, then take a mile'.

(Seriously, Pelosi is one of the least effective politicians in US History, being primarily responsible for also failing the Obama Administration. Democrats care way too much about the Californian money though to pursue political reforms of the party.)

We can say that Pelosi successfully destroyed two governments in her watch(Obama/Trump's), and she is so weak she can't stop the progressive coalition from a 3.5 trillion dollar dogfight that will hamper Congress all the more.

Let me make clear: As a Nationalist, I did not hitch my wagon to Trump in 2016, the aforementioned lack of planning made me weary of him and his remarks didn't seem like the kind of intelligent type. But once he got in and started to try to carry out a form of Nationalist policy, I was saddened that there was resistance, but I wasn't surprised.

I do believe we Nationalists will once again seize power, having learned from the downfalls of Trump.

 

I'm just going to acknowledge that we disagree on this stuff above. It would take entire threads to hash this stuff out, which I have no interest in.

This, though, should be easy to address. You may be thinking of something else, because Pelosi wasn't speaker in 2018. The dems had just won seats in the election, but the session where she would be speaker again didn't start until January 2019. This happened when Republicans had full control of Congress. The facts are clear. Trump initially said he would sign the bill, but then, as some members of congress were already on planes home for the holiday break, he announced he would not sign it.

 

Biden is an international embarrassment, a stain on the Free World
