I submit its a little more complicated than that. First he has to balance and patronize the radicals in his party. He has fed them, and they are voracious.....I might point to his position on Israel, and the response of his internal WH staff as evidence of the problem he faces if he moves anywhere near the center. So he needs some serious political craftiness...... So then when he compels the Fed to lower rates, and eventually collaborates with Republicans on the border ( or even starts to deal with the border at all) he has to treat carefully. He has to manipulate as many centrist voters as possible in a rather short time, without fomenting the raging radicals all around him. I do not envy him at all.....

Why in God's name would I? Wait, are you perhaps projecting on me again? Because you should not proceed under the premise that I think as you do. I am not down at your level.

I remain opposed to continuing an investigation proven to have no tangible evidence justifying it proceed, as was done with the dossier... And I am concerned that the Republicans might do just that. But there is a further concern that you have not even touched on yet. I am worried that everything they are doing is "on a schedule" to deliver the best impact on the election season. I see this as being election interference.

The details are interesting, to me anyway. Biggest influences are government jobs, healthcare, and then a range of low-income stuff. Given the propensity for these numbers to get later revisions, I will wait to see what happens over the next few months. Never going to be unhappy about job growth to be sure though.

Except that your assertion is not true, as demonstrated over years across a range of posts, threads and topics.

Of course I stated as much. If I were not sure I would be obligated to oppose an investigation, but since I see enough to justify an investigation I will of course support it. You appear to be moderating your initial support for Biden, but if you do not see enough evidence to proceed with an investigation then you are of course obligated to object to it.

Incorrect. And your position is rather sinister. I would really not suggest you support investigations where there is nothing present to suggest an investigation is warranted. That is dark stuff my friend.

I am certain. Were I not certain I would then OPPOSE an investigation. But, given the available information I am confident there was malfeasance. This notion that we should investigate people without being sure something was done wrong is not how we should be behaving, I would encourage you to reconsider that position. I have remained consistent, as have you. But our consistency is differentiated by my position to hold both and all accountable, whilst you remain a sycophant's to a political party.....consistently... There is no conviction, you are projecting. Just because liberals convict others in the manner you propose, does not mean that rational people do as well. Conviction will only transpire when it can be proven. Unfortunately, your behaviors are not unique. Your position is malleable based on who is involved. I discourage you from doing this.

I do think Biden took bribes, and that is why I think that an investigation is warranted/ You should as well. Rather than defend him to serve your political bias, you should insist that power be closely watched and investigated. Why is it that I can support it for Trump and Biden, but you seek to defend one of them? Why defend power? No sir, the difference between you and I is that I remain philosophically honest, irrespective of who is involved. It might be true that the inclination, for now, of Liberals to embrace misconduct finds me calling them out more often. But I also call out the other bad actors where they arise. You serve your political masters well, I leave that to you. I would prefer that all be held to account.

Often investigations are initiated with incomplete evidence, this is normal and natural. To suggest that we should not act on available evidence because it does not contain everything we demand in order to convict....is.....perhaps not the best idea. Instead, we proceed with the investigation. As was done to Trump, and this is a good thing. People in power need to be held to account. Your position on this exposes your bias. I, however, hold the same position regardless of political party. This is what differentiates you and I

Perhaps. I cannot object to those who did it in the past, and am unwilling to accept it now based on bad behaviors of the past.

Interesting, that has not been my experience....

Asssssss...... lol

Please elaborate.

That is the purpose of the investigation. You may be anticipating that Republicans will abuse the tool as the Democrats did, but so far they have not....and are investigating rather than simply weaponizing. Will that stay true? I do have some doubts, after all they are still politicians.....so it is reasonable to postulate that they could cross that line as the Democrats did, and when that happens perhaps you an I can be in lock step since the situation will then feed your bias. I will not stop with the Dossier, it remains emblematic of the abuses we know the left is inclined to leverage, and we should stand up vocally oppose it

Agree. Moreover, Liberals always tell you what they are up to. Any accusation arising from the left should be immediately interpreted as something they are actively engaged in.

I think you, and I, are not surprised..... Note to the forum. If you stand up to Marxist.Liberal.Woke nonsense.....expect to be taken down. They do not tolerate any dissention. Liberals mirror Islam, when a fatwa is issued, its a notice to all of them to attack.

Agree. I am actually a little surprised. I had low confidence they would manage it, but kudos to them....so far.

Her attempts to malign him were too standard. She was rather effective in using them, I have to admit. But he is too ready for the standard dogma if media lies and misrepresentation. If the media wants to manipulate viewers, they are going to need to come with more than standard dogmatic nonsense.

Not just savers.....all people in the middle ( and lower) classes.....

As are other nations. Which is why I insist that they all be equally watching and/or investigated.

The bank records and laptop provide enough proof for me, and far more than the fabricated Steele Dossier did to investigate Trump. Biden thought he was too smart for everyone. His overconfidence was misplaced. Though to be fair, how could he have anticipated his moron son would lose a laptop that documented some of his criminal activity? I am convinced that people in power do not always do the right thing, and sometimes they pointedly do criminal things. Rather than be a sycophant, as you appear to be, I instead insist they all be held to account.

No more so than Biden absorbing millions of dollars from foreign nations is just because they think he is neat.....

I am open to learning more, if you have something to impart please do share....
