    You might be right, but at least Biden starts without having made, for example, a boast about how irresistible he is to women who just want him to grab their puzzey, and who has never been accused of being closely associating with paedos or even being accused (in a Court filing) of being a paedo himself, or of having an affair with a whore while his Wife was having a baby, or ripping off Americans with fake crap like Trump University, and what is even better, Biden is likely solvent.

    Biden did not win so much as the absolute gutter dwelling grub lost.

    Gee whiz for a bloke who has made so many golden ducks (a cricket term...look it up,) you sure take one of the cakes. When Biden retires after say 12 months, and Kamala then takes the White House/Presidency as the Constitution prescribes, just how did she cheat?

    Lol...trump always looks frumpy in his suits. How can they cost so much?
    Maybe they’re trump suits made in China by ivanka and sold at huge markups since “scam the public” is the trump family motto.

    Lol...He’ll scam people for every dime he can, so that may be a low number, given how devoted his cult is.

    Why do you people keep calling me white? I’m Native American. I hate Democrats for destroying my Native American culture via Manifest Destiny. Pardon me for not taking sides with the Party of the Trail Of Tears; some crimes just can’t be forgiven.

    To begin with, Joe Biden didn't descent from a golden escalator to announce his candidacy.

    Nor did he call Mexicans rapists.
    (3.50)

    Just for starters...



    Biden will resume what Trump chose to abandon as an American value;

    Human decency.

    Without human decency every election can be stolen, every Mexican can be considered a rapist and every woman can be grabbed by her genitalia, at any time.

    The world according to Trump.


    Biden will kick Trump back to the gutter from which he arose.

    Let the rest of the world stay out of it.

    Damn right he didn’t defend from an escalator. He’s been in politics all along with not one positive thing to show for it. Biden would never speak the truth!!

    and this statistic the msm doesn’t report:

    Now if (God forbid) it should happen to one of your loved ones, you can’t complain.
    The reason is now you have something to really research.
    I would avoid the billionaire owned main stream media if I were you.

    Apologies, I didn't realise. (Psst: It might be your Avatar. It looks like an historical (very white) military officer in uniform).

    I am not going to comment on sensitive Native American matters as I don't know enough about them.

    I'm not arguing that she didn't feel she had reasons to not concede. My only argument was...she didn't concede.

    Considering that was your face in 2016, you are going to have to settle for photoshop.

    So you acknowledge that she didn't concede?

    That's all I was saying...

    It's weird how you guys seem to think Trump's PAC is some sort of piggybank for him instead of being governed by law and IRS regulations.

    He's allowed a certain amount for personal use. I don't remember the % but we're talking hundreds of millions here. It's a good piece of cash.

    This might be helpful.

    Federal Election Commission

    Using campaign funds for personal use is prohibited.

    Commission regulations provide a test, called the "irrespective test," to differentiate legitimate campaign and officeholder expenses from personal expenses. Under the "irrespective test," personal use is any use of funds in a campaign account of a candidate (or former candidate) to fulfill a commitment, obligation or expense of any person that would exist irrespective of the candidate’s campaign or responsibilities as a federal officeholder.

    More simply, if the expense would exist even in the absence of the candidacy or even if the officeholder were not in office, then the personal use ban applies.

    Conversely, any expense that results from campaign or officeholder activity falls outside the personal use ban.

    From what we’ve seen since he lost the election, trump will probably manage to keep a small cult at his beck and call, but the average American will continue to reject his self serving demagoguery and he will be relegated to the angry lunatic fringe of society.
    I suspect that his legal problems will make him wish he had never come down the gold escalator and drawn attention to his lifetime of sordid practices.
    A rule of thumb for any future potus candidate should be that if you’re too afraid to show your tax records, you are not potus material because you’re either fatally corrupt or someone has you by the shorthairs, or both.
    On the bright side for our democracy, trump has been an object lesson on the duties of a real potus.
    I am so grateful that Americans saw through his deplorable demagoguery.

    All the money isn't going to the PAC. Like I said, a certain % of what he's taking in can be used for personal expenses. I don't remember the explanation, but it made sense.

    OK so this issue isn't relevant to the topic and you don't remember any details anyway, but your faulty memory trumps (snicker) the FEC website.

    Thank you for your assistance in this matter.

    No, Trump's requests trump the FEC. All the money doesn't go to the PAC. I assumed you knew that.

    Lol. All I know is that some of that money is free for Trump to use. Sorry I couldn't enlighten you of that.

    President Trump's one term Presidency was a success, it served as a distraction to pack the Supreme Court with conservatives.
