I can dislike the President but root for the country.  I hated Clay Matthews and Mike McCarthy, but still cheered for the Packers.

That's a good way of putting it. Rooting for the president to fail, is like rooting for someone to get injured. Dumb

When Kamala doesn't get elected in 2024, I wonder if Democrats will say the same thing when a Republican is back in office?  I'm guessing "No".

Im not sure.  But the ones here will scurry like cockroaches back into their crevices like they did before.  Front runners.

Agree. I hope that conservatives host fast to being the adults in this situation, but would also understand if they marched in the streets screaming "not my president" etc.

The Republicans would be within their rights to investigate and impeach the guy, but wasting time and money like the Dems would not be suitable.

I hope they manage to not fall into the trap of being a despicable POS playing the people....like the Dems

I think he will be a fairly moderate 1 term president. From what little I have read he was the agreeable one in the Obama administration. I think he may be able to get budgets approved and keep the basics of the government running for 4 years.  I do not expect anything major from him on social issues, guns rights, global warming, etc.

In my opinion we are due for a global recession, it has been over a decade since the last downturn and we are due.  I think this will kill his reelection chance and that we will see a Republican president 4 years from now.

Isn't this all that matters? America is too full of hatred and wanting to see someone do badly. makes no focking sense.

This. We all have to live here and we know over the next 40 years there will probably be a republican president for ~20 of those years and a democrat president for ~20 of those years.

You shouldn't root for the people to fail when your guy is not in office.

Is it even feasible to imagine an 82 top 86 year old president? that is insane.  

I remember when both my grandparents turned 80, they started to decline mentally. At 75 they were fine, around 80, they just lost it.

This is a mindset I don't understand, from both sides. 

I have friends that root for some entire systems in our country to fail (big banks, current healthcare, technology)...but why? How is them failing going to help anyone? The hatred and anger is always misplaced, IMO. 

Hate Trump. Hate Biden. Whatever. But wanting them to fail doesn't mean what people think it means...IMO.

I think some people, no matter what happens are screwed. Their lives are nothing, they have nothing better to do than hate. I don't use twitter and I never have, but I have seen and heard plenty of tweets. The cesspool of society.

I believe Biden will wind up being one of the greatest presidents of all time.

He will lead us through the conquering of one of the worst pandemics that America has faced.

He will be known for saving the Earth from climate change through the changes he enacts over the next four years.

He will heal many of the cultural divides in the country and bring equality to all, regardless of sex, race, nationality or sexual orientation.

And he will accomplish all of this in just four years, ready to hand the baton to Kamala Harris for another eight years.

This place isn't any better than Twitter.  The same stupid crap that gets spewed on Twitter gets posted here.  This place is just as filled with hate as any other social media site.

When I’m feeling depressed I always come here. Nothing cheers you up faster than seeing just how focked up some of these people are.

Also, I predict Biden will win the Nobel Peace Prize just for not being Trump.

My late fishing buddy was the most MAGA person on the internet. Every post was blaming MSM, libtards, dummycrats, etc. I did not post on that site because we were such good friends, but he would fit in here. He would never post in a thread that was not about politics. Everything on the internet for him was politics 24/7. If you only knew him from the off topic forum at that other site you would strongly wonder how he functions in the world.

In real life he had a double masters in petroleum engineering and computer science, he was the nicest guy you could imagine. If i needed help on the boat he would drive over and help, and we lived 40 minutes apart, it was not a quick drive.  He never talked negatively about any subject in person, sports, fishing, work, other hobbies, businesses, etc. He was the most positive person you could meet.

 

I do not know what it is about the internet, but it can bring out the worst in some many people.

A majority of the people I'm friends with on Facebook are just like your buddy.  People who enjoy fishing and hunting are overwhelming strong conservatives and will voice their opinions loudly.  My timeline is full of anti-Biden and socialism memes.

It is unfortunate that people hate on other people just because of their political beliefs.

 

We all want the same thing, a strong, healthy America. There are just different opinions on how that can be achieved.

Never on this site have seen anyone say they disowned family, friends etc for voting for Biden. Do some research about how many people did that regarding Trump.

You're seeing Trump supporters say that those who didn't vote fore Trump are anti-America now.  I've seen numerous memes that only show the states that voted for Trump as the real USA now.

Do we, though? I get the sense the Trumpers would rather destroy the country then not get their own way. At the very least they are willing to subvert democracy to their cause.

The night he was elected some Democrats talked of impeachment. Which they did. Talk about hate? Stop this nonsense. Our country was doing great under Trump, and don’t blame Covid on him.
