Biden Just Announced That He is Out

[volbound1700]

Getting back on topic, Kamala is probably a slight boost for the Democrats because she hasn't done enough to have any negatives about her. Trump is probably struggling to find ways to criticize her. The border is one thing but I don't that is a winning issue.

I do think a lot of people are turned off on the Democrats due to all the craziness about the change. This doesn't reflect anything on Kamala but rather all the drama around Biden dropping out.

The DNC and First Debate are going to be HUGE in the outcome of this election. I think Trump wins if election is today but Kamala can regain steam with these items as well as her VP pick.

That being said, our nation is facing a major ISSUE not being discussed. Our National Debt Interest payments just surpassed our total military spend. I do think we have debts people owe us that could offset some of this if called in but the rising debt issue is becoming a problem and it is what is driving our inflation.

Hannity and most of the Fox programs are full of content on Kamala’s short comings. The liberal media isn’t touching it.

The ranking of her being the furthest left of every other Senator tells me the most. Left of freaking Bernie Sanders.

Getting rid of private health insurers.

Banning fracking on day 1.

Ending oil leases on federal land (despite horizontal drilling technology creating minimal disruption to the environment).

Unlimited abortion rights legislation.

Her marijuana hypocrisy.

Her record of putting so many black men in prison.

Practically no experience managing anything (other than mismanaging the southern border).

If she wins, the country might be too far gone to recover.

This is scary but keep in mind that Presidents can only do so much, you can still keep a lot of this off your plate if you have a solid local government.

Key is the debt. We maybe too far gone due to our debt but we will see. The key item that helps the USA is not having a realistic competitor overseas. China and Russia both have their issues as well (sometimes more glaring than our own).

Kamala as POTUS doesn’t frighten me (much). What is scary is that a majority of voters would vote for that garbage, socialism inspired platform.

Debt is reaching critical levels. I think it’s now 120% of GDP (or GNP?) and it was at 100% around 4 years ago. At least the owners of the debt don’t have the option of calling it in. And a **** ton of it is held by US citizens. We’ll just keep issuing more of it to pay the interest and push it forward. We desperately need the economy to grow and now is not the time for a more regulated, bigger government to be our direction.

The issue that conservatives don't talk about that causes that is the two items:

1. How much of the population gets social payments from the government and stands to vote for these platforms for financial purposes
2. How much of the population is unemployed or underemployed and blame capitalism for it

It isn't logical, it is emotional but it drives that pro-Communism platform. Key issue with our economy is not having enough entry-level positions or job support for young graduates. At the same time, the trade professions don't get enough love and do provide better pathways than College.

Lucky Strike people are also racist.

You're hurt, I'm sorry. Didn't mean to leave out. But you're ignoring, I have said that everybody is a racist. We're all ethnocentric, whether we want to admit it or not. I've stated this quite a few times. Feel better?

 

[WoodsmanVol]

As diverse as the US is there’s going to be more examples of racism than most places. The US takes in far more immigrants than any other country. Most of the Asian and African countries are overwhelmingly uni-ethnic.

Probably true, but the funny part is that racism in this land began with the immigrants' arrival. It really is both sad and funny when you think about it. What immigrants? The Euros, on arrival they immediately branded the natives as uncivilized, savage, godless, and worst.

Not trying to be mean but they kind of were.

They engaged in practices like human sacrifice, cannibalism, scalping, etc. They were roving war bands and not some idolized culture that they are made out to be today. They were no different than the Celtic/Germanic tribes the Romans/Greeks engaged in Europe or the Central Asian Nomadic tribes that China and Persia fought against.

There might be some exceptions (like the Cherokee) that were not that bad but most were pretty much war bands that basically engaged in horrible acts on each other and any foreigners (Europeans) that arrived.

I think Biden has been suffering with dementia for some time. There have been signs, confusion, memory loss, being combative and aggressive in some odd scenarios.

He's lost some weight and build over time too. It seems to me he's been taking dementia medication for some time, has depended on it. In find some research once certain proteins stop being produced the medications lose effectiveness and can sometimes happen very quickly. These drugs also cause nausea and weight loss...... But those with dementia often lose weight anyway.

Biden and his camp did a great job of managing him and his appearances over the years. But the onset and lack of drug effectiveness came at the rust possible time. With each appearance Biden was more exposed for the feeble person he has become, and trust in the Democrats that supported him would as well, to the point that an election would have been unwinnable this cycle. The decision was made to give them a punchers chance against a flawed candidate in Trump.

Going to be a very interesting election cycle.

He clearly had dementia in 2019-2020, he is in at least moderate dementia stage by now if not more advanced. Add to this the possibility of parkinson's disease might be possible as rumored. I would not be surprised by a seizure or stroke in the last few weeks based on the video from last night, there have been rumors as to that going on for some time now.

I would say he had noticeable dead eye in 2019, and by 2020 it was very obvious he was dead eye.

I think the Parkinson's specialist that was rumored could have been a consult. Some of the same drugs used to treat Parkinson's is used for dementia as well.

Hell, who knows. Maybe it is Parkinson's related dementia.

I think they fried him up with all the Juice. Some of his issues are now probably other things that are a result of the use and maybe overuse of drugs.

Most drugs there is always a price to be paid, imo.

Exactly why Trump should mop the floor with her if he'll just keep his mouth shut

The chances of that are slim and none and slim done left town.

First off screw all y’all for making me put up anything looking like a defense of Trump.

The agism gripe on both puddinhead and the orange one are rooted in different origins.

Puddinhead from the shoulders down really looks “healthier” but he’s mush above the shoulders. So having a POTUS that is merely alive while not functioning has zero value. And that is exactly what we’ve seen out of Puddinhead since 2020. The lights are on but nobody is home. We all saw it and were told to ignore it.

With the orange one you have a very different case. You have an individual that clearly is in control of his mental faculties, yes he really is, but had the physique of a gourd. So you would have a POTUS in direct command of his metal faculties, while you might might not agree with what he’s doing he is AWARE of what he’s doing, however he is one Big Mac hamburder coronary away from checking out. And we can all see that too.

So while agism does indeed come into play for both it absolutely has very different manifestations and concerns.

The choice now is are you comfortable giving the keys to an obvious DEI hire largely unpopular and not viewed as competent (yes that also is a rational opinion of our VP from her own resume products and the DEI label is directly applied by her boss, yes it really was) or are you comfortable with having a POTUS whom is in complete control of his mental facilities but one Big Mac state dinner away from checking out.

No where in here did I mention policy or agenda.

freaking lol. you know the natives chose sides in the European conflicts on this continent based on which tribe aligned with who. why? because they had their own racism going on.

racism existed long before "we" got here.

No everyone isn’t racist. Please stop with the co he tire and lies. You look low IQ saying crap like this.

I really don’t think that conservative voters are too concerned with the social issues that the liberals and leftists are in meltdown mode over. I think that the blue side is trying to stir up their base with the narrative that the Rs will be taking away every abortion right and they attack people for being LBGQxxx and any minority trying to enter the country. I think that the right doesn’t really care much about creating legislation to stop the parades and guys from wearing dresses. I think that the Rs are far more concerned with security, the economy, inflation, jobs, the national debt and growing deficits, China, the fentanyl epidemic, a wide open southern border, etc and the left’s record on those things isn’t anything to brag about. So they twist it from securing the border to xenophobia. From letting states decide on where the abortion line is to taking away reproductive rights. From wanting peace in Ukraine and Israel to being Putin’s puppet and eliminating Gaza’s non-Jewish population. From opening up federal acreage and drilling for oil to being a dictator and destroying the environment. From being fed up with the DEI failures to using the n-word and being bigots. They’ve been lying relentlessly and the MS Media fans the flames of hate and divisiveness. The Dems avoid debating the important issues and make the hot button issue that Orange Man is bad. He’s a convicted felon! He’s a sexual predictor! Now age matters. He’s a cheater. He’s a Nazi. He’ll be a dictator.

In Europe, way before colonialism, the English and French have always disliked each other, and fought countless wars, the Scottish and the English, the Irish and the English.. the Spanish and everyone else.,the Catholics vs. the Protestants..Jewish vs Gentile, the Romans, Greeks, etc and it wasn’t like ‘hey, I’m prejudiced towards you’.. it’s ‘you’re going to have to die’ It’s always been a thing

In Asia there are Bangladesh, the Koreas and Japan and some of the Arab states which are pretty much uni-ethnic. Are there others? African countries tend to be multi-ethnic. Don't forget European colonizers' tendency to draw border lines based on their convenience rather than ethnic boundaries.
