2020 Presidential Race

I will never say either. I hope very bad things happen to both of them.

Typical trump-lover response

 

[VolnJC]

The gerrymandering coming out of GOP state legislatures is gonna be lit. Rorschach for all!

You would advocate Dems do the same in retribution if they won...I don't like it either but that's the Spoils System still alive and kicking

 

[lostsheep]

Fun Fact

Very interesting. And Biden and FDR both followed an incumbent who had badly mismanaged a national crisis.

But FDR bad!

 

[lostsheep]

I hope I am on her list, I will fight communism at every turn

Straight from McCarthy's playbook. Weak sauce.

 

[RavinDave]

Some of it is probably true but it won’t go anywhere

Trump’s chance were overwhelmed, for good or ill, by a well-conceived and orchestrated mail-in blitzkrieg. Mostly legal and no way they can find enough fraud to matter.

Trump needs to concede soon and I expect he will

 

[RavinDave]

Yeah, but think of it like AOC's crazy eyes and triggering your spirit of adventure. If you switch her channel it could be wild ... or it could be "Play Misty for Me" time. Makes you think of Forest Gump's box of chocolates but replaced with different kinds of things that go bang.

So you’re saying she’s bathsh!t crazy?

No, I don't advocate for it. Maryland is Democrat controlled and their gerrymandering is terrible.

It's fundamentally anti-democratic (with a small d). There needs to be bi-partisan commissions at the state level in charge of districting. There are ways to do it fairly that are variations of the old "one person cuts the cake, the other one selects which piece he wants" thought experiment. Each side gets to act in its own interests, but the end result is objectively fair.

How learning to share cakes could help stop unfair US elections

 

[VolnJC]

But FDR bad!

Some of the New Deal programs were good but others actually prolonged the depression.
Ultimately, and unfortunately ironically, it would be the WWII that ended the depression. How Government Prolonged the Depression

I’d cheat all I could to beat a Nazi.

Hope the world doesn’t turn to a new war to end the economic devastation felt from Coronavirus.

His niece says he can't and won't.
He'll walk out still claiming victory in January of 21.

 

[GSD82]

Impeachment has to happen

 

[utvolpj]

Very interesting. And Biden and FDR both followed an incumbent who had badly mismanaged a national crisis.

And FDR prolonged the depression with his spending. Is that the model you're going for? Cheering for war?

 

[calban]

I often wonder what those who are so afraid of the S word in this country would do with the poor and elderly who benefit from the Socialist programs in this country.
Do we let them starve, die of various diseases or begin the Purge method of controlling their numbers.

 

[lostsheep]

And FDR made the depression worse. Is that the model you're going for?

We all know it was WWII that brought the country out of the depression. However, unlike Hoover, FDR put together a plan and and attempted to rally the nation to confront both the depression and WWII.
Trump has failed to properly address the pandemic and has miserably failed to unite the country against anything. Unlike Trump, Biden will attempt to do both.
So...yeah, that’s the model I’m pulling for.

 

[RavinDave]

His niece says he can't and won't.

Yeah, I had second thoughts about whether he will actually concede. Hopefully he at least leaves under his own volition and without stealing the silverware.

So try and fail is your plan? Negatively affect so many future generations with your policies?

The virus response is a hoax at this point. Anyone still using it as an excuse should be shut down immediately. They're not worth it

No one has a problem helping people that truly need it but the problem is too many lazy democrats take advantage of the system

Joe won’t attempt to do anything, he didn’t do anything in nearly 50 years.

Try and fail? Ha...however you want to spin it man.
Trump failed miserably at bringing this country together to face the pandemic.
Biden will at the very least make an attempt.
You don’t have to like it, but that’s what I want from a leader.

 

[lostsheep]

Joe won’t attempt to do anything, he didn’t do anything in nearly 50 years.

That’s becoming a tired argument AV. The man has spent 47 years serving his country. Perhaps you should also ask yourself what you can do for your country instead of sitting back and whining.

You don't think there are lazy Republicans who also bilk the systems?
Is taking away health insurance from all 20 million a good idea during a pandemic because some lazy Dems take advantage?

It’s not the governments job to make sure you people have health insurance. That’s your responsibility. Your fake pandemic is over
