I don’t feel I was being disrespectful. Not the intent. I was trying to see if he condones what the president has said. He made a passive aggressive post regarding quotes I posted. I wanted him to back off or take a stand instead of skirting the edges.

A) I never have expressed support, or lack of it, for any politician here; my comments have always been confined to law; B) Whatever his problem is he has inferred and imputed meanings to things I never said.
That is sick.
yes I supported and voted for Clinton.
Grow up? All I’m doing is posting what the president has said. His words.
be nice? I said my intent was not to be disrespectful to pcb. And if you mean be nice to the president that’s not happening as he is fair game per the mods.

Ok so Clinton was a pervert, abused power, liar, murders people. Biden were just getting started to finding out about him. Trust me much will come out about him in coming months. You support him?

President Trump is the best president in USA history and I mean that. I don’t care what he says he’s actually kept promises.

- His constant insult towards Arianna Huffington; Trump is known to never cease to hurl abuses at Huffington, the co-founder of Huffington Post. While he could have directly opposed her liberal views, he goes on to address her looks and her personal life. One of this is his tweet when she had issues with her husband ‘@ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision.
- Calls Arianna Hufington ugly- As if his tweets about her was not enough, he tweets again ‘How much money is the extremely unattractive Arianna Huffington paying her poop ex-husband for the use of his name.’
- Belittles Hillary Clinton’s achievement- ‘If Hillary Clinton were to be a man, I don’t think she’d get 5% of the vote’. So was he trying to say being a woman is an advantage?
- He insult to Carly Fiorina- Carly Fiorina was Trump’s republican rival. He was noted to have said ‘Look at that face, would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president? I mean, she’s a woman and I am not supposed to say bad things but really, folks, come on. Are we serious?
- When Clinton confronted him on women issues- Upon Clinton’s confrontation, he said ‘Amazing that crooked Hillary can do a hit ad on me concerning women when her husband was the worst abuser of women in US political history.’
I supported both Clinton’s. murdered people? Lol and I’ll be waiting on the dirt to drop on Joe. So far what little has fallen has not been proven credible. nothing has stuck.
I seem to have struck a nerve. Was not my intention. I was just asking if you supported the comments I posted earlier this evening.

Man this thread can get pretty despicable the amount of hate thrown around in here towards each other based on someone’s political beliefs.

and I told you 20 ways from next Sunday your comments did not factor one iota into any post I made but you persisted ad nauseam ... in doing so you showed some feathers that ... well, never mind but I'd suggest going forward you act and converse based on facts and not raw or blind emotion ...

We can agree to disagree. Trump is not the division only. It’s the hate driven by liberals and media. Being called Trumpsters and drinking kool aid. It’s a whole realm of circumstances. The division started with Obama. Then Pelosi and her pathetic liberals that surround her. By saying this is what Trump has done only makes the division worse. All we hear is how reckless he is. All we heard under Obama was how the police were bad and race issues. It’s old. In November we can see what happens. One thing I can assure you. Biden will not change the division. He will only make it worse.

Agree but it’s not just political beliefs. It’s also on people’s opinions. From being called mentally insane to someone can’t spell to today death squads. It’s ridiculous.
The nation is not a business. Please stop peddling this dumb line that we need a businessman as the president. Trump was not "building up the economy," he was sowing the seeds to poison the planet and the people to line some people's pockets.
Come on, that's not what he did. We don't have to go find a quote to support a position about the president because almost everything that comes out of his mouth supports how unfit he is. He said hundreds of things in 2015 alone that would have ended the campaign of anyone else.
But few if any other candidates are so nakedly hateful and spiteful, and that is what many people want, because it is a reflection of themselves.

Damn it ... not you too? My post was a global comment not directed at anyone or any particular thing.
Maybe you'll do a double thumbs up this, but if folks cannot read simple English without somehow trying to magically tie a stand alone post to something it was/is not even remotely associated with, then I retire or sabbatical at the very least ... the effort isn't worth it ... ?

Two more people back parts of Tara Reade’s claims against Joe Biden

Though Biden could be guilty and the Dems shouldn't be hypocrites and instead be open-minded to that possibility, Tara Reade appears to be a nutcase who lacks credibility (similar to some of the accusers of Kavanaugh) based on extreme inconsistencies. I'd like for Biden get those records released from the University of Delaware and see what they show.

Agree I’m sure she is a nut case as most in politics are. I think it’s attention and money seeking Individuals that come out after so many years have passed. Never fails. I’m sure things will continue to come out about him. Just as they will on Trump. Dirty laundry sells as Don Henley wrote a song about.
bs At comparing trump and Biden in this egard. Trump has 25 plus women accusing him. He is also on tape bragging about sexually assaulting women. There is zero comparison here.

Well to me even just one is one too many. No lady should ever be treated that way. Either way all politicians have skeletons in their closets. Anyway I’m not here to argue nor even try to change your mind. Biden will have plenty of dirty laundry to come out. It’s just starting.

One too many? There is no such thing as "too many" if you have or will vote for trump again. If you voted for him then 25 is just fine.

Both Trump and Biden and every other politician that runs for president have skeletons. Ok so let’s say Trump has 25 ladies and Biden 1 even though we know it’s many more. Both are just as bad. Either 1 or 25 both to me are sad. I will vote for Trump again. Yes I know his character as we have heard over and over is terrible. No politician running for president is going to have good character. I vote for him because he’s the best at being Able to get us out of this economic depression we are going into in my opinion. Anyway it is what it is with what we are faced with in politics anymore.

Violent arrest raises concerns about NYPD distancing patrols
NEW YORK (AP) — A New York City police officer who was caught on video Saturday pointing a stun gun at a man and violently taking him to the ground over an alleged social distancing violation has been stripped of his gun and badge and placed on desk duty pending an internal investigation.
She is going to represent my district well if she beats incumbent Democrat Joe Cunningham.
The following is spot on imo with regard to Trump’s inability to properly handle his duty of head of state. This person is clearly too liberal for my liking, which can be seen in his critique of GWB policies. However, in this, he compliments GWB for his ability to bring the US together during his presidency and his recent call for unity for the current crisis, which Trump unfortunately criticized:
theweek.com
“It's a quality I've come to appreciate, admire, and miss terribly through the civic desert of the Trump administration: the capacity of a president to rise above partisanship to speak from and to the nation as a whole.”
I’m proud to say I voted for GWB twice. This is what he released recently in his call for unity:
If you after listening to this can’t feel the huge difference between him and Trump on the issue of trying to unify the country, then I don’t know what else anyone can say to ever convince you.
How George W. Bush exposed Trump's biggest failure
Trump cannot perform one of the vital functions of his office

I like GWB very much so. Hes a good man. But, as of right now no other candidate is addressing issues of trade and other things that have been ignored for 30 years.

Agree Bush was a good man and leader. No way I would ever compare Bush and Trump. Bottom line is we are faced with either Trump or Biden. Lesser of 2 evils.

If people don't want to hear or see Trump, DONT LOOK! STOP LISTENING! Cut your TV off so you don't have to see him people. Don't look at his Twitter. The individuals who despise him as bad as some here do, refuse to look away. They are so obsessed with this guy, what he says and how he says it they are willing to spend hours a day bashing him. For what? Live your life and get over it folks! These people look like fools complaining about unity.
If you put the people that post most often in this thread, put them in a room where nobody knows the other and don't talk politics, I doubt there would be a single argument amongst anybody in the group. The divide doesn't come from the President (any President). It comes from people's inability to control their damn emotions over 1 Man. Jeez what a miserable life some of you must have if Donald Trump gets to you this much

The mans president of the USA.........you say we should ignore him but theres nothingt he is doing that dkesnt effect every one of us.
Essentially you are asking us to bury our heads in the sand just as you have done.
No thanks I'll continue to hold the firm belief we can and do deserve better than this loser we have in office now.
Good/interesting article, IMO.

Republicans are reopening. And so is this state led by a Democrat.
Barbershops, salons, personal trainers and tattoo parlors are all permitted to restart. Offices will be allowed to soon.

I have never really read political threads at other boards or this thread until recently, I had no idea people really got this emotional and personal about politics. I don't think it's a bad thing but it was certainly surprising to me.
