hes been an idiot forever.  he embarrassed himself so many times as senator.  you could tell he would a disaster as president.  however, even Ronald Reagan once said Biden might be president someday, but that's because being president has been his singular mission in life.  a lot of very smart people would never take that job because the job sucks.  but an idiot like Biden who desperately wants it would make a nice sock puppet.

I believe it. I rarely argue about the opinions people here have on Biden. The only reason I give him sympathy is because he reminds me of my grandpa who had Alzheimer’s before he died. I feel embarrassed for him when he publicly speaks.

Ron DeSantis has commented on the raid of Trump's home via his spokesperson:

“Anyone who knows about my background before I came to Florida,” Pushaw tweeted, “will understand why the politicization of the FBI/DOJ, or even the appearance of it, scares me more than anything else. We Americans like to tell ourselves ‘it couldn’t happen here,’ ... until it happens.”

 

Marco Rubio has commented on the event:

“Using government power to persecute political opponents is something we have seen many times from 3rd world Marxist dictatorships. But never before in America.”

He was a scumbag long before the dementia.

No, I’m just keeping it real. I contend Biden is the bigger scumbag. I say bigger, I don’t say Trump isn’t.  But the scumbag who is entrenched gets protected. The one who isn’t gets destroyed. 

I won’t argue over who’s the bigger scumbag because I know that you know more about Biden’s career. I’m not trying to defend Biden. It would take a lot for someone to change my mind on Trump though. When stuff like this happens to him I just think he has it coming.

how would you feel if you kid gave a speech in front of a room, and someone standing right behind him got angry and tore a copy of their speech in half right next to them?  would you assume there is no chance it will go any further?  or would you assume the worst and take action to remove that person?  you know you would defend your child.  the situation with a sitting president is no different.  that is an attack without question and you know it. you arent going to laugh and say "oh hes going to threaten my child with a paper cut haha!!!!"

I certainly wouldn't yell "They just physically assaulted my kid," because it would make me look like a babbling idiot.

The only way it would go further is if my kid retaliated. 

I would address it afterwards with the people in charge.

Also, calling Trump a scumbag does not mean someone else is or isn't. There is no need to try and play "Who is more?"

methinks this is a criminal investigation with a warrent.

[Sean Mooney 1,184]

It is impossible to take any politician seriously that immediately has to accuse someone they disagree with of being a "socialist," "Nazi", "facist", "Marxist" or whatever other easy term they want to use from Political Science class.

FBI could say they have damning evidence against Trump from this raid and I wouldn't believe them because of how this went down.

look, civil wars are never bout facts.  they are about a loss of credibility.  the Boston Massacre in 1770 was a bunch of rabble rousers that were harrassing and attacking a court holding a key trial.  some redcoats lost their cool, a colonial or 5 got shot.  the rebels then spun events as the redcoats were now slaughtering colonials.  the truth did not matter.  the crown had lost so much credibility with the colonials that the colonials were ready to believe it.

thats what we have here.  this government has lost so much credibility among the right wing that a civil war can happen over an event like this.  its very dangerous times.

I want to play that game. Every hair on Trumps ass gets examined with a microscope and you guys are good with it, but bring up the truly down low scumbag things Biden has done and all of a sudden it’s radio silence.

Nothing you say is about facts. I'm not sure why you so desperately want to will a civil war into happening but it is ridiculous at this point and calls into question your mental health.

I've said numerous times I'm not sure what the hearings going on right now accomplish. And really- Trump means nothing to me. Never did. 

You want to make some line that because one thinks Trump is a piece of shite they can't possibly think Biden is, or has done bad things as well. That is silly thinking and I think you know that.

Crybaby? A goverment is using the FBI to go after a political opponent and that's all you got?

Dang, that's not smart by you. As soon as an independent party gets big, the left will do the same to them in your scenario.

Maybe on Twitter. Lots of people on the right think Twitter is the definitive voice of leftist politics as opposed to a bunch of crackpots spewing hot air.

Even if they do this sets a crazy precedent. For real, this is actually pretty nuts.

Twitter bans the conservatives because they tell the truth.
