Sadly, we have 2 BAD choices:
- A loudmouth, arrogant narcissist facing mutiple criminal charges who presided over a strong job market, no new foreign military adventures, tax cuts, energy independence, and foreign adversaries held at bay in puzzlement over his tough exterior and unpredictability
-or- - An even more unlikable, older senior who shuffles, mumbles and forgets, who ignited the invisible tax of historic inflation by wild spending, opened the border to an invasion of more than 9.2 million illegal aliens, killed energy independence, had no response to Russia aggression downing a U.S. drone in international air space and a Chinese espionage balloon traversing across the entire country. And whose family faces documented questions about suspicious money transfers of large sums to them from China, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Russia etc.
If it were up to me, my choice would be the option that trounced Haley in Nevada – “none of the above”. But, to make such a non-choice would be extremely dangerous to our democracy. (Where have I heard that before?).
I’ve been schooled that the decision should be based on morality by one who supports backing a hair sniffing pedophile who frequently creeps out young girls, sexually assaulted his aid when he was in the senate, inappropriately showered with his young daughter, thoroughly messed up the minds and lives of his children and endorses the murder of countless innocent lives right up until they are born.
For my take (yes, I am allowed that here), I will go on record to state that (just as I did in 2019), that 77 is too old to be going into office and this time Trump has reached that milestone. He’s also beginning to show signs of deterioration so my hope is he picks a rock solid VP that can and will be effective when called upon because it may be sooner than we think (beyond the seditious games the left will immediately initiate before he even takes office).
In the meantime, I fully expect or better yet DEMAND that Trump immediately rectify the several years of blatant corruption we’ve been through. As much as he irritates me, he’s the only one who can assure that justice is done and all these crooks are held accountable for knocking this country completely off the rails. Although paying for their crimes should be part of the solution, exposing them for all to see is of utmost importance for there to be any healing.
They know it and the resulting PANIC is obvious. The trouble is, the more apparent it becomes, the more desperate THEY will become so expect anything to impose martial law along with a suspended election, or they’ll just take him out Epstein style. I think any of those scenarios will light the fuse to their demise in a way that this country may never recover from.
However, what’s likely going to interfere with their plans is Chinese aggression towards Taiwan. For the more it appears Trump will win, the more likely China will act before he takes office as Biden will be helpless and clueless to stop it. So, expect some movement there before November – likely this summer.

Okay, I’ve spent some time in the fresh air and sunshine and am ready to descend into the rabbit hole for a little more “discussion”… To date you have excused all of my comments as being “off-topic,” so I want to note here that the topic of this rant seems to be the fitness of the two leading candidates for office, so my comments will pertain to that. Now that that’s established…
I heartily agree with your characterization of Trump as “a loudmouth, arrogant narcissist facing multiple criminal charges” but you didn’t acknowledge that the criminal charges are for (I’m summarizing here the themes that flow through the 92 counts) lying, fraud, violating the Constitution and violating of our national security protocols. What about those charges would suggest to you that he should be anyone’s choice to run the country?
Yes, you’ve made it clear that you don’t care about morality in a candidate, so long as they save you a few bucks in taxes, but even so—do you care about democracy? Do you really believe that Trump would just serve one more term and then quietly retire? You’ve suggested Trump pick a “rock solid VP,” but I think Mike Pence has already shown us what happens to anyone that is not willing to bow down to Trump—he unleashes his goons on them.
Meanwhile, your accusations of Biden are both baseless and vague. With respect to his character—the “pedophile” comment, in particular, is a serious charge to make against someone. This seems to be a favorite accusation with which the ultra-right likes to brandish the left (which is really ironic since Donald Trump was a personal friend who actually kept company with Jeffrey Epstein). However, here’s my question around the pedophile/sexual assault accusations: With as many people on the right actively trying to bring down Biden as there are, if ANY of those false claims you’ve made had any REAL evidence behind them, wouldn’t charges have been brought forward already? And wouldn’t we be seeing the same kinds of indictments and convictions we’re slowly but surely seeing with Trump? If not, please explain why not, because that’s a real puzzler.
Also, I would love to understand what you mean by rectifying the last “several years of blatant corruption we’ve been through.” What corruption are you talking about? You have to understand that for those who don’t subscribe to your “secret media sources,” there is no public record of Biden’s corruption. You can’t just keep making vague accusations about people without providing any explanation, so please tell us which laws are being violated and to what end is Biden breaking them?
Lastly, let’s talk about inflation, since that seems to be one of your bigger gripes against Biden. It’s well-documented that inflation was a GLOBAL problem as a result of the pandemic and that it’s now coming back under control. Here are three charts you may want to see:
Global inflation (Hint: You may want to think twice about electing someone who is a fan of Putin):

Monthly inflation rates:

Projected inflation rates:

As you can see above, inflation was a blip caused by the pandemic and the economy and jobs market are strong.
I know it’s your preference to just launch your rants out into the universe and not have anyone question your assertions, but since I seem to be the only person reading your posts and engaging in these debates, I’m hoping you’ll do me the courtesy of providing a response. (Heck, you don’t have to provide answers to all of my questions, but it would be refreshing if you gave a thoughtful response to even one of them.)
