I continue to be amazed that any woman would support this president, but I do find it amusing that all those supposedly against nastiness and meanness would support a man who can barely open his mouth without insulting someone - usually a woman or person of color, but also a gold star family, a disabled reporter, and many others. He literally cannot speak about a political opponent without calling them names. He has not demonstrated respect for anyone who doesn’t align with his views, but y’all accuse the left of being purveyors of groupthink.
No one here has been able to spontaneously name one unassailable reason for voting for him other than the fact that he gives lip service to a dying industry that donates heavily to his campaign and political party. Why, then, is it so surprising that the rest of us are left with the impression that you’re voting for him because he dislikes the same people you dislike?
Basically, it seems you want to keep Trump in office to stick it to the libs. But supposedly we’re the nasty ones.

It’s also honestly amusing seeing the claims of “puppet President of the extreme left” thrown about. Especially when the current president has made some questionable decisions (like refusing to even acknowledge the bounties paid by Russia on American suckers) even now. Things like that give credence to the thought that he’s a puppet for Putin. 🤷🏻♀️

OMG, there's a difference between reading a scripted, planned speech from a teleprompter and getting questions ahead of time with planned out answers. It's obvious Biden's staying away from random questions. Yesterday he comes out when Trump's in California to accuse him of being a climate arsonist and leaves without answering any questions. He's challenged people to push up contests when they say something he doesn't like, he calls his own supporter a lying dog faced pony soldier, he asks an interviewer if he uses cocaine when asked a question he doesn't like, etc. It's clear he's intentionally staying away from on the spot, unscripted, surprise questions. It's 50 some days before the election and he WILL NOT answer questions. People might not want to hear what Trump has to say, but the man does not stop talking. He answers questions all of the time. Biden won't. Maybe that will work in Biden's favor, who knows. But come on now, it's obvious he's being kept away from reporters and actual tough questions. I’m confused why the fact that he won’t stop talking is seen as a good thing? There are many times when he should absolutely shut up. Because he clearly has no idea what he’s talking about. I didn't say him non-stop talking was a good thing. I said like it or not, Trump does stop and answer questions all of the time. He does interviews all of the time. He stands in that briefing room answering questions for what seems like an eternity.
My point is Biden barely says a word or stops for questions. He seems to avoid the press. And I think that's his campaign strategy that might, or might not work for him.

Proof? Other than that one instance that can be interpreted several ways? What other instances? Proof? Watch his appearances, and watch him walk away without answering any questions-it's not hard to find. I'm not going to search thru YouTube for links. If you haven't seen him do that repeatedly then you aren't watching. Every politician takes questions at some events and not at others, usually because they have a tight schedule. Why is this suddenly nefarious because it’s Biden? (Trump has also walked away without taking questions, particularly when he is concerned that he might not like the questions. Heck, he stopped doing the COVID briefings entirely at the height of the pandemic because reporters were asking reasonable questions about his handling of it.) |

You just validated my entire post. Haha!!! Dumbass!! Look in the mirror you dumbass....you name called me before I said boo about you. I’m not the one who magically reappeared just to handslap snd lecture (and play victim). Definition of hypocrisy, ha ha dumbass. You are the epitome of a fucking hypocrite. I’m starting to get the feeling a few of them have been *summoned* from some external group, or something. I wonder if Melissa25 is lurking back there too? 😏 |

Take out the person (Biden/trump) How should the debates/questions be poised? |

I did not say "it's all about me and my family" and you know it. I gave a legitimate reason that affects a huge population, whether your side of the aisle likes it or not. But once again a democrat chooses to be nasty. It's such a thing with y'all...you're just nasty and mean. And you didn't change my mind. I can't fathom that your delivery would change anyone's mind. Not trying to change your mind. Just trying to understand. Aside from his support for the oil & gas industry, why do you support Trump? No, thank you. There is no rational discussion to be had here. Even if you are the only one that would allow real conversation and truly wants to understand, it's not worth reading the rhetoric from everyone else. |

Honestly, if Biden answers questions - to the cindioshas of the world, he’s proved mentally deficient. If he doesn’t - he’s deemed not presidential. 🤷🏻♀️ Trump is good at not answering stuff he doesn’t want to, I’ll give him that. |

I also understand that you don’t care enough about the accuracy of your statements to back them up. I get that it is much easier to lob insults and then run when asked for proof/sources. I have absolutely no interest in doing your work for you. It makes your case in this instance less-than-credible. But if you are fine with that, I’m fine with not believing your claims. |

Trump has fucked America over got his own personal gain, had destroyed and divided our nation, has amplified the rise and voice of racists, white supremacy—you better believe we’re angry, and we will call out every one of your bullshit excuses when they come up. Typical trumper...sanctimonious AF. |

So again, what happens when all the oil dries up? I know that I will be super pissed if I can’t get some of the things on this list. 😄 We need to get to making these things without it, and do it in a sustainable way. Burying our heads in the sand and continuing to only pump money into the oil corps and ignoring and defunding the up and coming energy and materials companies isn’t the answer. Just like with coal. We need to be evolving away from this stuff. |

I hope y'all get some help for your anger. It must be exhausting. I think this was supposed to be belittling. Maybe passive aggressive. Nasty even. But getting help, especially during what we’re all going through is not a weakness, or something that should be used to shame someone or used as an insult. I’m angry, yes. It is exhausting. I’ve reached out for help. Did saying that make you you feel better? More superior? Honest questions. |

Bottom line, I believe Biden's handlers protect him from having to answer questions all on his own. Well, except Cardi B. I fixed your quote for you because unless you are one of his handlers or a close family member you don’t know and are just making an assumption without any facts to backup your assumption so it’s best to be clear this is your opinion and not a fact. |

It's actually a very positive thing to recognize when life is overwhelming and then to actually seek help to get back on solid ground. It is very sad that everything that is happening in our world right now affects anyone in a negative way and I'm sorry that you are feeling that stress. We must all do what we need to do to take care ourselves...no shame in that. And honest answer...it did make me feel better but not more superior. |
