Up on appeal right now, that takes a while, then when it comes back down you have to restart the trial proceedings to some extent. The gears grind slowly. They aren’t doing this in the fall when the election is right around the corner so it’s summer or not until 2025 if ever 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But she couldn't even move the needle in polling in her own state 4 years ago so good luck running her instead of Weekend at Bidens. I love how white people think they know how black people feel without ever talking to anyone black. I don’t know 1 single black person that likes Kamala Harris, not 1. She is a nice looking woman who has risen to Vice President. I can’t think of anything else to say about her besides she has given speeches. Michelle Obama did more notable work while in the White House and she wasn’t even a politician. KH is a bit of a dud. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RLLD 4,230 Posted February 5, 2024 There is reason to be concerned of course. But there is plenty of time to address the major issues. I think the problem for Biden is that any movement to fix issues is a movement back to Trump-era policy and the radicals that pervade the Democrat Party are not tolerant of anything other than absolute devotion to the platform, no tolerance for other ideas is allowed. Biden is in a tough spot, but he is not without options. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even if none of the trials have verdicts before then, plenty of new information will come to light that will turn off a lot of independent voters. If he is found guilty of anything prior to the election, he's likely done. SCOTUS could rule that the states in which Trump was removed from the ballot did it lawfully. I'd be shocked if they did, but that would be an epic game changer. None of this will matter to the born again MAGAMOOKS, who will likely perpetrate violence regardless of what else happens. That will serve as a nice reminder to normal citizens that this guy and his supporters are not friends to democracy and the rule of law, further tipping the scales to Biden.

I think the lawfare is not having the desired outcomes. I think strategically it was mainly pursued with the hope that if they went after him with enough nonsense, people would just turn away rather than face all the drama.....but there was a factor that they overlooked, the daily struggles of everyday people who remember how good things were under Trump. And there are plenty of people who look at these farcical legal attacks, and correlate it to their own experiences.... The effort does seem to have transitioned into political chicanery to prevent a candidate from being allowed to participate. I think this is also a particularly bad look. I think too many otherwise sensible liberals are hardcore buying into the many lies and just allowing themselves to be manipulated ala 1930's Germany-style.

He’s down massively with every group that carried him to victory in 2020. And no amount of good economic news seems to impact the numbers. He needs to be replaced ASAP. But dems are dumb and they’ll go down ridin’ with Biden. Was talking to some 20 somethings at work and both male and females said they hate Biden-Harris and Trump. One female said "Why do we have to choose between a man who looks and acts like he has dementia, and another who is insane?" We don`t relate to these 2 options. Some said they won`t for either. Hard to argue with her as I and many feel the exact same Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's a major A-hole and IMO isn't very bright, but that doesn't make him insane. I agreed with many of his policies and would love to see them implemented again. I think he handled Covid a million times better than Biden would have. Doesn't mean I have to like the man personally. So, what makes you think he's insane?

They have been indoctrinated to think that way. The government, well......politicians, have been leveraging their access to media and education to manipulate these kids for years now. William Shriver was an NBC journalist from like....the early 1900's....he wrote about this happening.... Quote "I myself was to experience how easily one is taken in by a lying and censored, pressing radio in a totalitarian state it was surprising, and sometimes concentrating to find that notwithstanding the opportunities I had to learn the facts, and despite ones inherit distrust of what one learn from Nazi sources, a steady diet over the years of false vacations and distortions, made a certain impression on mind, and often misled it."
