We will have gridlock for at least a couple of more years.Depends on who controls Congress. If the Dems capture both the House and Senate and she is President, are you really supporting the proposals she has talked about? I’m in favor of massive grid lock in DC.
I thought the low point would have to be 2016.Someone who proposes dumb things. Or, someone who says dumb things.
I can only pray the elections represents the historical lowest point in American politics.
you are forgetting the context.I thought the low point would have to be 2016.
Then I thought the low point would have to be 2020.
Now I hope the low point is 2024.
There is one common denominator. Once that is eliminated, the country can once again move in a better direction.
Your better direction and my better direction are not the same direction.I thought the low point would have to be 2016.

I have no problem with any of those until 2016.you are forgetting the context.
2000 was the low point.
then 2004 was
then 2008 was
then 2012 was
then 2016 was
I know you desperately need it to be a Trump ONLY problem. but its not. he is a symptom. the actual disease is the two(one) party system you still support.
I'm guessing they are far more similar than you care to believe.Your better direction and my better direction are not the same direction.
All we can affirm at the moment is the choices each election are getting worse.
that line is just going down. Trump isn't the end, he was just the next stop.I have no problem with any of those until 2016.
Were they the best possible choices? nope - but they were in line with what we had always had.
trump is the horrible anomaly.
2008 and 2012 in no way represented the line going down.that line is just going down. Trump isn't the end, he was just the next stop.
he lost to a guy who is legally not liable for his own actions, and not just because he is president.
and now he is losing to the DEI hire by the brain dead guy who was a noted detraction from the ticket.
and in 2028 it will be another collection of worse idiots because the parties have their constituents trained.

2016 represented the line plummeting to a massively historic low.
I believe 2028 will be better. I have always claimed that trump represents the bottom.
There has been absolutely nothing happen over the past 8 years that refutes that claim.
Unless your posting here is exclusively an effort of agitation, I am not as confident as you that our versions of "better" are in sync.I'm guessing they are far more similar than you care to believe.
I think we can affirm that trump has been one of the candidates in each of the 3 worst choices we have had in our nation's history.
How do you know she's honest when she won't answer any questions? Avoiding the people of this country isn't a good leadership qualitySo you're saying she is more up-front and honest than trump?
And I'm fine if she goes after price gouging and some guns.
Over the years my thinking on the improtance of CiC has evolved. I used the think the role was critical. Now, I believe the position is really inconsequential until something critical shows up. The challenge with that is that critical moments are never planned so it is risky to put unqualified people in qualified positions.Are we to believe that Joe Biden helped craft, read or even knows what's in this document? Which means unknown, unelected bureaucrats are the only ones who know what Biden signed.
Can you imagine if Kamala Harris is charge of such serious matters? Imagine Harris in a room with Iran, China, or NK. She has no clue. It's like sending a child to do the adults work.
These are serious issues that people are wanting to leave in the hands of stupid people. Something has to and will give.
This administration has ensured at the end of Biden's term that the world is a more dangerous place than 4 years ago.
