Asking CBS News' Errol Barnett whether he is a junkie when asked if he had taken a test for cognitive decline?
Okay, so can you tell me how Trump accusing Megyn Kelly of having "blood coming out of her wherever", or just last week been flabbergasted that a reporter (Jonathan Swan if Axios) was using death as a percentage of population as a metric ("You can't do that", said Trump. Why not?), is also not a sign of cognitive decline? And these are just two examples. The number of non-sequitor outrageous nonsense that has spewed from Trump's mouth over the past 5 years is staggering. I don't remember you being very concerned about what that said about his mental faculties. If I'm wrong, link me to a post so I can see for myself this is something you're regularly concerned with.
Well it won't be much if an admission. He is racist. Nowhere close to as racist as Trump, but that hardly gives him a pass.
I don't remember you showing much concern about Trump's racism either, though. Care to tell me why this is suddenly a deep concern for you?
Would tou
What are some examples of Trump's racism?
and "would tou" what?
I didn't vote for Trump in 2016. I couldn't stand the man and he had no record to judge him by. I found him repulsive and viewed him as a clown.
4 years later? I don't see him as a clown. He's demonstrated that he is human and is a salesman. A lot of the claims of "lies" that media throws at his feet are way over exaggerated.
The media claims he is a racist. I don't see it to be honest. Transphobic? Xenophobic? Or whatever other phobia you can name? Don't see it.
I've decided that the media can't be trusted.
He is one of the most honest politicians I've seen in my life time.
How can I say that?
He has accomplished or worked on most of the things he campaigned on.
I am likely going to vote for him in November.
Biden? He has a record to judge him by. He has accomplished very little in all the years of his public service. On top of accomplishing so little, he is not very trustworthy. (documented and discoverable with a simple google search) Its sad but refreshing that as he is aging, he is losing his filters. Most recently the one that the american blacks are a monolith. And if you don't vote for him, you aint black. We're catching a glimpse of the real Joe because of his filters eroding. He can't even get through a single interview as of late without effing it up.
Its so funny that the media is claiming that the republican party is falling apart. Imploding. That this election will easily be won by Biden. Polls even reflect that he will win in a landslide.
The way I view it, Polls were being used in 2016 to suppress voters. Why go out and vote if Clinton was going to win in a landslide?
Not sure how anyone can trust polls after Hillary's loss in 2016 and her projected landslide victory.
The crazy alt left is driving multi-generational and life-long democrats to Trump. They're tired of the promotion of Marxism and destruction in the name of BLM and antifa which are in fact fascist and marxist.
On top of that, no democrat is excited to vote for Biden. They are only motivated by their hate for Trump. Orange man bad! TDS.
Trump's base though has the perspective that Trump is going to win and in a landside AND they're super excited to get out and vote for him. Weird combination.
By the way... i am a political libertarian and cultural conservative. I detest the ideas promulgated by Marxists and socialists. That they gain support for their power by convincing groups of people they are oppressed and/or disadvantaged. That if those groups give them power, they'll make history right and force others to culturally accept them and their behaviors. Not only do they convince large swathes of people that they are oppressed and to give them power so they can "make things right", they convince others not of those oppressed groups to feel guilt for things those guilty don't do. Guilt for things their ancestors may have done. Guilt for being born into more privilege. The democrat party consists of those who want power. Those who are convinced they're oppressed. And those who feel guilty for the oppression that the oppressed have felt.
And then comes the group think that we know today as cancel culture. They decry power hierarchies while maintaining the most blatant and oppressive power hierarchy you can conceive. Think and act like us or we will cancel you. They promote diversity of race while claiming race doesn't matter. Diversity of sex even though sex is a construct. Decrying diversity of thought and ideas. The true advantage of diversity comes from diversity of ideas... not race. If you're able to reconcile all these ideas, then you suffer from cognitive dissonance.
The civil war was the anti-slavery republicans of the north vs the slaveholder democrats of the south. The reason why the north was so economically superior to the south leading up to and during the civil war was because the south practiced slavery. It was disadvantaging them economically and costed them the war in spite of having better tacticians and generals.
In fact, there are many examples that I can cite of systemic racism at the hands of the democratic party. I am not just talking about their connection to slavery and the KKK but even in modern times. Today.
I believe in individualism. Individual responsibility. Accountability. Improvement. I believe in equal opportunity and believe that trying to force equal outcome is selfish. And evil.
