    I didn’t say she wasn’t distinguished. He didn’t need to know who she was.

    Impressive! Not surprising, considering who she's working for.

    Trump is done. End of story. Stick a fork in him. He will not be president come January. With Biden's latest initiatives he has stolen Trump's thunder and will now coalesce both the progressives and independents that did not swing Democrat in 2016. It will be an ugly landslide.

    After not being convinced in either his platform or his ability to lead for most of the election cycle, I am now 100% convinced Biden is what the country and the world needs and I am sure I'm not one of a select few who have changed their minds.

    Wait until the debates. Trump is going to hammer Biden and make him look like an elderly man with dementia. The debates should narrow the large gap we seen in the polls today, but Biden should still be able to win easily.

    Frankly Biden can just say he doesn't want to debate and still win, or just send out a potato in his place. Nobody is voting for him, only against Trump.

    It's on till it's gone, then I gots to know now
    Is you wit me or what.....
    Talkin' to this chic wondering if I'm gonna slide it in,
    Thick white girl from Gingerleaf Lane, can't really say her name.
    Always going on walks in her short denims
    I knew she was freak when I met her, long hello kitty finger nails
    Looked like Heather Graham without the roller skates, no older than 27
    Girlfriend, What? Remember me from way back? I'm the same cat.


    -----------------------------------------------

    Ohhh yeah cancel culture.. .It's been around for a while. Remember when some chubby pill addicted radio host attempted to cancel Mcnabb. Conservatives trying to cancel the lambada in the 80s! My country banned Hotel California.
    England tried to cancel all Qatar jerseys and they have for the most part. To make it seem like it's only the 'socialists', that is disingenuous as these things tend to be. It is funny that the writer of Harry potter books has seen herself targeted by this 'cancel culture' and by the conservative ones when she released the first book(witchcraft)

    While a majority of Americans (Ms Clinton received 3,000,000 more votes in 2016 than trump) hope for just that - trump's defeat and a Democratic landslide, there is something important to remember.

    Never assume.

    Two questions: are you Gen X and would you say you’re a National Review conservative (my definition: principled and not easily swayed by populism that had taken over the newest GOP crop trying to emulate Trump)?

    If the Democratic Party became nothing but Berniecrats, I’d be pretty dissatisfied.

    I want to go back to the promotion of liberalism with freer people, markets, and that all are created equal with fundamental rights. Not necessarily the liberalism as it is commonly defined even though I am a that kind of liberal, but the philosophical ideas of liberalism. Right now liberalism is dying across the world, and it’s being replaced with different flavors of authoritarian and populism.

    If liberalism goes away, I fear for what will replace it.
