    Similar position. I don't like Biden. Plain and simple. But he isn't a threat to stability of this nation like Trump is. God damnit his own SecDec EXPLICTLY stated word for word that he's a threat to the US Constitution and purposefully divides the country. Not a single former SecDec in the history of SecDecs has ever criticized the president they served in that harsh of a manner. There are former staff dropping like flies giving tell all books. His own family members are ******** on him. No one likes him besides the people directly wealthy because of him which are his children and his wife. That should be a giant red flag to any emotionally healthy adult that this man should not be managing the the world's largest bureaucracy.

    Watch his debate against Bernie a few months ago. Pundits either gave it a stalemate or win for Joe. Do you think Bernie is senile? I’ll just let results speak for themselves but I anticipate Trump won’t stand a chance one-on-one

    Yeah, no this is a complaint that exists only in a tiny subset of twitter - Andrew Sullivan being upset that somebody called him a racist on twitter will decide **** all, unfortunately for more openly racist Trump supporters like yourself and old Fart trumpsters like @Os Trigonum .

    lol, he's 92 years old, does he really need to be a leading authority on what's an appropriate twitter slapfight and what's out of bounds?

    I think you strongly underestimate the intelligence of Black swing voters. After nearly 4 years of trump's bigotry, much of it aimed at Black Americans, his complete incompetence dealing with the worst pandemic to hit this country in a hundred years, with Covid-19 arguably hitting Black voters worse than any other demographic, the choice will be an easy one for a large majority of them, in my opinion.

    you inadvertently highlighted Trumps greatest (professed) strength: no one else will stand up to that bureaucracy.

    I fully agree cancel culture isn't just a thing of the Left. If it wasn't Colin Kaepernick wouldn't have been a out of the NFL.

    On a side note I notice my Trump supporting friends frequently post stuff about how sensitive everyone is now and get outraged so easily while in the next post they will post something about how bad Kaepernick is.

    That’s a false equivalency but fine. Would you have voted for Bernie if he was a nominee? Curious where you fall on the political spectrum

    I know who the people highlighted in the images of the Times article are. I have no idea who Farnaz Fassihi is. Should I?

    Thanks. I've never noticed her, and we take the digital Times.
