    you forgot the possessive apostrophe:

    It's amazing that you can pick apart a poster's obvious typo but not once criticize Trump for anything.

    You know who else is bad at punctuation? TRUMP IS BAD AT PUNCTUATION.

    Its actually getting more and more comical around here.
    you cant get any more hilarious then that bin laden was for biden especially considering it was when biden was vp.

    Ted bundy was a democrat and hitler loved biden too!

    Cue benny hilll

    Isn't this a "faulty inference" you're making?

    why are you even talking to him, you realize that he is completely wasting your time right? That's all he is doing.

    Not really, most of the political news I get comes from the topics discussed here.

    getting news here and playing with trolls are sorta 2 different things here.

    It definitely gets cringey when lou engages since we all know including him that the dude is trolling.

    Is there a single poster here that is pro trump that is not a troll? Who?
    Cml i think is his name? Maybe the HTM guy?

    I cant think of a single one. I like general but I also know he is trying to trigger libs like this os guy. Its all in good fun surely

    He outed himself with the use of the word Fun in the context of what he was discussing. The fact is trolling is a hobby or sport for many people who are drawn to Trump as if it was a significantly addicting video game or something. Just speaks to the draw to Trumpism with his base, and makes me actually feel sorry for many of them. What has happened in this country that is so bad that people are this desperate for a sugar high of self worth & lack of identity.

    Haha fwiw i wouldnt call it a hobby but I do seem to have some part of me that 'enjoys' calling out trolls.

    this site and discussion would likely be better without them although I do like to hear some of the zany takes. That one about bin laden liking biden is a good one and I appreciate it as humor. I suspect many of the trolls are just being humorous in their own way and other trolls genuinely are human garbage. Its interesting i suspect some are so into their bbs character they cant step out of it. Like a method actor stuck in it. That rockets legend guy comes to mind. That troll story is fascinating. Dude put in 100s of hours on this site. Was he gettimg paid? Wtf haha

    Wow...you mean the Republican strategy of "killing off Grandma and Grandpa so their kids could live in a decent economy" didn't go over so well with people over 65+?

    I think his handling of Covid is gonna really be his downfall, losing anything from that over 65 vote is gonna kill him.

    Trump won the 65+ and older vote by 13+ points in 2016...in May, 538 had him down 1 point based on polls since April 1st in that demo...FoxNews has him down 10 points now with that same group.

    https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/are-older-voters-turning-away-from-trump/

    I'd be curious what that demo said was their biggest concern...I'm betting it would be Coronavirus

    Trump also didn't know whether Finland was part of Russia's orbit (or maybe he thought it was once a Soviet vassal).

    Well, you tell Putin from me not to put those harebrained ideas in that harebrained so-called President of ours!
