If I were running a campaign for Biden, or anyone running against Trump, I would boil it down to one main point & question:


Trump doesn't care if you live or die.  But will YOU die for Donald Trump?

David P. - I think the case is that we have long been willing to give POTUS the benefit of the doubt, and the ability to do what they will in the office. It's just that this is the first fiend we've had who would take advantage of every opportunity that was laid before him. Every forgiveness, every free pass, every "Get out of jail" card.

Of course, the other side of that coin is the implicit trust that the President will do all that is necessary for the U.S. - but go only that far and no farther. President Murder has been not only taking everything he could get, but bluntly and obviously - so much so that not only has he indelibly stained his family name, but those of others in his administration. I mean, will Bill Barr, Kelly Anne Conway, or Jared Kushner every get another serious job? As for the sons... HAH! Baron Trump may have to change his name as grows up to try to get any realistic place in society.

Roger Stone - well, I guess Trump needs him free to shake the trees for donation and support for his re-election plan. But will it work? It seems kind of the opposite of a political candidate killing his opponent so that he's sure to win. The cause is worse than the result.

October and November are gonna be damned interesting months, politics wise. And if angry, stentorian Joe Biden can arrange fair debates and shows up.... well, as I say, interesting.

N.B. - When I opened this page today, it was blank. It took me a second to conclude that it was a posting at the top of a page by someone on ignore. I assume he has ME on ignore also, so he'll never see this. But it's kinda weird.

(Eric, I have a post at the top of this page.  I never put you on my "Ignore" list... can't recall any spats that you and I ever had.  Very bizarre.  I can see your posts just fine.)

I still have a hard time wrapping my brain around how truly evil and corrupt Donald Trump is.

The way he "thinks" and the things he says are just anathema to me.  And I don't consider myself any paragon of virtue.

Robert, I’m right there with you. However, what kills me are the people that think he is doing everything right. That Trump’s sole concern is the wellbeing of the country and the sanctity of democracy. These four years have taxed my faith in humanity.

Eric, the top post is by Shaun Barry. He can see your posts & says that
he is unaware of any spats, just in case you can’t see his reply to you

As an aside, I managed to accidentally put myself on ignore last week -
that led to a few hours trying to figure out why my posts were being
deleted, until I grew a brain & checked.

Dang. I don't know of any spat I have with Shaun. Time to double check the Ignore list, and apologies to you Shaun (and thanks for straightening me out a little, James. The Aegean stables are next... :P :P :P )
