    So is there going to still be a poster here triggered if I call Trump a fascist?

    Or is it still "liberals call everything fascist" thing if we call Trump one still?

    Well, part of leadership is inspiring people, and poor Joe inspires nobody. The other issue is that a decent part of America lacks the critical thinking skills (or declines to use them) to identify and focus on the accomplishments of the administration.

    Honestly, the country could really use a second term of Biden. Boring as hell. Seems senile. Neither side loves him. He isn’t beholden to the far left and he is willing to castigate the far right. Stuff is getting done. We could and may well do a lot worse.

    This.

    He needs to get the VP right because he could become incapacitated at any time, I have no issue with that as long as he has a good team in place.

    Not that this comes as any surprise. I mean, as if backing a narcissistic liar, election denier, and insurrectionist and seditionist who has most likely also committed espionage with all the stolen documents wasn't bad enough. That doesn't even count all the crimes related to his personal businesses and all the women he's sexually assaulted. Candidates that unfit to serve are hard to find, but the GOP party would back Hitler if it meant owning the libs.

    Wow! That's so f*cked up. Probably the same breed who would spit on a black veteran and tell him to sit in the back of the bus in full uniform back in WW1 and WW2. Those creeps who voted no would would back a sniveling coward without an ounce of honor or sacrifice over an immigrant who put their life on the line for this country. As a 20 year Vet I am disgusted by the GOP. I served with great people, who sacrificed more than those sleazebags ever will.

    The more I think about this the more it disgusts me. WTH is wrong with the GOP to hate immigrants so damn much when every single one of them had immigrant ancestors. I mean, these are immigrants serving this country honorably. They put their lives on the line for our freedom and security. That's some blatant racist BS.

    I bet most of those pigs who voted no don't have a single member of their family who serves in the military, but would welcome some hot immigrant white woman into their bed with open arms, and fast track her to citizenship for serving their personal needs. We know Trump did.

    I am going to listen tpo that but the whole code switching thing is a minefield and people use it as a weapon too many times.

    Walker’s loss in Ga. spurs new GOP hand-wringing, calls for new strategy

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/12/07/georgia-senate-runoff-walker-warnock/

    excerpt:

    Herschel Walker’s loss in a pivotal Georgia Senate race Tuesday has renewed Republican calls to break with former president Donald Trump and rethink the party’s strategy ahead of 2024, as lawmakers and operatives reckoned with the final blow in a profoundly disappointing midterm cycle.

    The recriminations were swift as Republicans began the autopsy of Walker’s race on Wednesday, sparring over who and what cost them the seat. Many blamed Trump for urging Walker, a former football star with no political experience and a slew of allegations about his personal life, to run for the Senate against Democratic Sen. Raphael G. Warnock, betting on his celebrity in a high-stakes midterm election in which Republicans needed to net just one seat to take the majority.

    Sad, but just one of many poor kids dealing with not being accepted. Hate is never good. Acceptance and unconditional love for all is the answer.
