    Joe Biden the man that was going to bring us all together.

    No president can unite this country. Not in today’s modern political era of polarization, the great divide, the super, mega, ultra-high partisanship. Sure, we were mostly united in a long-ago political era when both major parties had their liberal and conservative wings. But since then both...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    People have a way of figuring this out themselves. It’s reality to them, they ask the question are they better off today than they were 4 years ago? A question Reagan made popular back in 1980. If one is worst off, it doesn’t matter what the economic indicators say. No set of numbers are going...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    The MSM has lost the trust of most Americans. 56% of Americans agree with the statement that "Journalists and reporters are purposely trying to mislead people by saying things they know are false or gross exaggerations." 58% think that "most news organizations are more concerned with...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    What I agree on means little to nothing. It's how the masses, the voters see these things. They see Biden as an utter failure on both the economy and inflation, rising prices. Biden's president this time around. Not Trump. Usually when a sitting president runs for reelection it is solely a...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    Not in 2016. Trump won the nomination with a bit over 35% of the GOP vote. He had the largest faction within the GOP, to be sure. He kept winning primary after primary with his 35% in a 14 or 15 candidate field. I don’t call losing by 7 plus million votes a narrow loss in 2020. It wasn’t a...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    I keep hearing that from democrats, Biden supporters. Probably true as I believe the economy is like the weather. No one controls it and like the weather, the economy runs in cycles. If presidents and governments could control the economy, we’d have all ups, all good times, no bad times or...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    From 5 Apr 2024 both Trump and Biden have lost support. Trump falling from 47.2% down to 44.5% and Biden falling from 46.5% down to 44.2% in the two-candidate race. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/president/general/2024/trump-vs-biden In the 5 candidate or 5-way race, Trump has fallen...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    You know most of the MSM is left wing with a few exceptions like FoxNews. Most people can see for themselves by a trip to the grocery store as to the job Biden has done with the economy. The cost of clothes, shelter, etc. As for perceptions, they’re always in the eye of the beholder. Partisan...

    Siena College Poll: Biden in bad shap in NY state, only ahead of Trump by 10.

    Doing great? Only among those of the Democratic Party persuasion. Not in the eyes of most Americans. Only 40.3% of all Americans approve of the overall job Biden has done as president, 55.7% disapprove. Breaking down Biden’s overall job performance by party, Democrats 83% approve, 15%...

    Have you heard about the "Libertarian Party" ?

    Most Americans know nothing about third parties or that they even exist. One almost has to be a political junkie to have heard of the Libertarian Party or the Green party, Constitutional, Justice, etc. I wouldn’t say they’re fringe parties as far as political ideology. But fringe in the sense...

    Can a rational, compelling, or even a sincere, facts supported case be made for voting for GOP candidates?

    Reality along with perception is in the eyes of the beholder. Your perceived reality of the political world is probably a lot different than mine. I don’t like nor do I trust either major party, you I assume trust one but not the other. We do agree on Trump. I dislike him, I think he’s an...

    Can a rational, compelling, or even a sincere, facts supported case be made for voting for GOP candidates?

    Elections are my interest. This is what I’m watching congressional wise. https://www.realclearpolling.com/polls/state-of-the-union/2024/generic-congressional-vote Mostly I frame my posts toward elections. Which the above simply means is that either party can gain or lose 5-8 seats in the...

    Can a rational, compelling, or even a sincere, facts supported case be made for voting for GOP candidates?

    Because I’m interested in what people think, feel, want and wish for. Their feelings, wants and wishes are related directly to how they’ll vote. I want to know how many like or dislike both Trump and Biden, why they support one or the other or is it just that they’re against one or the other. I...

    [W:19] What is a fag?

    Way back in my younger days, a lot of folks called cigarettes fags. That was when cigarettes sponsored a lot of the TV programs. Before the word became to mean homosexuals. It’s been many decades since I last heard the word fag in reference to anything. Far as I know, it just fell out of disuse...

    Trump Deflates

    I say it because you either don't know it or you ignore it or don't give an owl's hoot about what all Americans are thinking, feeling, saying or how they look at or perceive things. Looking strictly inwards or at a single tree instead of outwards or at the forest isn't going to win you many...
