All Things Politics Thread

Hahaha ok guy. We’ve had some civil conversations but that ends now.

I completely agree.  We are like oil and water anyways.  We dont mix well. 

There is no proof Biden reads off the teleprompter during interviews. There is speculation. 

Wow, have you even watched the videos?  You said they are right wing.  What the hell does that mean?  Are you saying they were all edited and fake?

You want to believe what you want to believe that’s fine.

Talk about projection. 

But you want to come with this whole there’s more evidence of Biden reading off a teleprompter vs Trump’s racist. That’s where you lose me and any respect I may had for you. 1) Trump has been saying racist stuff for decades. There is plenty of proof. There are people in his family and people who were close to him who have said he has said racist things. There is a new article out today saying he said disparaging things about African Americans and Jewish people. There’s video of him saying things that black people have said were racist. This goes back to that whole listening to people who’ve experienced the thing point. There’s plenty of actual evidence. Yet you don’t want to believe it’s racist. That’s your prerogative. 2) How in the hell do you try to compare the racist things Trump says to Biden allegedly reading from a teleprompter?? I would much rather support a person who reads from a teleprompter than a racist. Funny you call Biden weak when Trump is so sure he’s losing that he’s depending on the courts to declare him the winner. If Biden is a paperweight candidate, Trump is the worst incumbent president we’ve ever seen because he’s losing to that paperweight. Maybe worry about your guy who had Adderall or blow particles flying out of his nose. But again comparing a person using a teleprompter to a person being a racist... that’s ridiculous and kinda telling. 

Biden has said numerous things that are racist for decades and its nothing to you.  Like you said, thats kinda telling

If Biden wins, he wins.  I lived through 8 years of Obama so I guess I can live through 4 years of Biden aides, Bernie and AOC running the country.

I’ve seen different reports but have never seen anything official from the police. Is there a true official report out there?  

Yes there is.  I'll try to find it.  In the meantime check this out.  It's pretty thorough

This should infuriate anyone that is a taxpayer 

The taxpayers in Louisville have to foot the bill for cops killing Breonna Taylor to the tune of 12 million dollars. The American taxpayers have had to pay for Donald Trump to go golfing at his own clubs. We’ve had to pay for secret service to stay at those places. Yet now you want to tell people what they should be infuriated by? You know Trump owns the golf clubs, he could have made sure that we didn’t have to pay for him to golf for what equals a calendar year. But he didn’t. And he likes to brag about returning his salary yearly. I would wager that salary is far less than we’ve had to pay for him to golf. But I don’t see any outrage about that. This forcing us to pay for him to golf should infuriate anyone who is a taxpayer. Especially when he told us he wouldn’t have time to golf....

It's amusing that now leftists care about the President's golf while it wasn't a concern under O. 

I'll let you research the government's expenditures under each administration to draw a more informed opinion. You'll find that O played golf more often, took more vacations, and paid salaries for bigger support staffs than Trump's. But, that does't fit your narrative.

Don't let the facts get in the way of your inane rants.

Why let me do the research... if you have the data please share the links and I will gladly look at them.

The pot calling the kettle black ?

Now that Joe Biden has called out President Trump for playing golf for the first time since early in the COVID-19 pandemic, Mr. Biden’s own golfing dalliances become relevant.

“Nearly 100,000 lives have been lost, and tens of millions are out of work,” Mr. Biden tweeted over the Memorial Day weekend. “Meanwhile, the president spent his day golfing.”

Unlike Mr. Trump, who rode in a motorcade to play golf at his Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, Mr. Biden when he was vice president thought nothing of regularly taking Air Force Two at taxpayer expense to go back and forth between his home outside Wilmington, Delaware, and Washington just to play golf with President Obama on weekends.

Yea I’m glad Obama wasn’t a golfer ??

(Rereads what I posted) yup never said Obama never golfed. Never even mentioned Obama. Trump people love to talk about some syndrome people have in regards to Trump but they cannot go without bring up Obama. That guy lives rent free in y’all heads.

Mr. Biden’s trips were kept secret. In fact, as detailed in the book, his staff sought unsuccessfully to block the Air Force from complying with my Freedom of Information Act request for Mr. Biden’s flight records.

Among themselves, Secret Service agents assigned to Mr. Biden's detail and officers of the 89th Airlift Wing, which flies the planes, expressed outrage at what they considered an abuse. For my book, Mr. Biden’s vice presidential press office had no comment on his trips.

In view of his trips, Secret Service agents on Mr. Biden’s detail chuckled when Mr. Obama announced in 2011 that he was placing Mr. Biden in charge of a Campaign to Cut Waste that was supposed to root out unnecessary government spending.

As you said its not that hard to do research

You’re comparing Biden’s family getting filthy rich leveraging taxpayers money with other countries to how much a president plays golf. This is why no one on this message board can agree with you on anything. But hey to each his own

 

[DMAC]

The Air Force records show that from the time Mr. Biden took office in January 2009 until March 2013 alone, the vice president’s trips back and forth between Joint Base Andrews and Wilmington cost taxpayers $979,680 for fuel and maintenance. That figure does not include the additional costs of flying Mr. Biden on the Marine Two helicopter between the vice president’s residence at the Naval Observatory and Andrews.

Good news in regards to the China virus

How does shooting police officers make amends for what happened to BT?  I hope this person rots in jail

Ok cool. So let’s do apples to apples. We have had to pay for secret service to protect Trumps kids as they have flown around the world closing business deals. Kushners sister was caught using his position to profit him and his family. Ivanka was given patents in China that she couldn’t get before Trump won. Businesses in DC actually sued because they were losing business from foreign countries because those countries knew that they could carry favor with Trump by staying at his hotel. Yeah Trump’s family have no leg to stand on when talking about profiting from holding office.
