Without confirming this story, IF the story is true, and Biden has ties to the U. S. Communist Party, would it disqualify him as a presidential candidate?

Communists approve Joe Biden for president - Washington Times

"Gains endorsement from long-standing chairman of the Revolutionary Communist Party USA"

"Bob Avakian, chairman of the Revolutionary Communist Party USA (RCPUSA), has endorsed Joe Biden for president.

Mr. Avakian, who has led the party since 1979, says he doesn’t particularly like Mr. Biden, but that electing him is necessary for “the overthrow of this system, as the fundamental solution to the continuing horrors this system causes for the masses of humanity.”

The street mobs of Black Lives Matter and Antifa, plus the radicalized “progressives” around Mr. Biden want to saddle America with central state socialism that looks a lot like communism, so Mr. Avakian’s endorsement shouldn’t be that surprising.

In contrast to America’s leadership of the Free World, communism has killed more people and created more misery than any other ideology. The death toll alone from communist regimes during the 20th century is at least 100 million."

"Ties to Communist Party"? What 'ties to Communist Party'?

The poll question simply says "IF the allegations are true, WOULD it be disqualifying."

Sound familiar? ;)
But, there was no allegation. I read the article.

Avakian clearly endorsed Biden.

Would you say it would be unfair and unethical to draw attention to this story? Because Biden is innocent until proven guilty?

And that purposely drawing attention to an unconfirmed accusation right before voters receive mail in ballots, to try to change people's votes based on falsehoods, is unethical?

What is a Communist? Someone who lives on a commune?

Using the OP's logic what does it mean that Trump was endorsed by Osama Bin Laden's niece?

That's a far cry from claiming Biden has, 'ties to the U.S. Communist Party'. He doesn't.

So where is this tie that Biden has? Does Trump having the support of White Supremacists disqualify Trump?

I voted no, as I don't think being an ideological communist disqualifies him as long as he's still a member of the Democratic Party in which he's running.

At least, now that the communists have endorsed him, I hope that doesn't disqualify him. :hm


:lol:

Was Trump endorsed by OBL’s niece? What kind of logic are you using?

If you were chairman of the Communist Party of the USA, who would you publically endorse, the candidate you support or the one you oppose?

I like how commies have to play dumb when their logic is used against them.

Biden also got Richard Spencer's endorsement. By their logic, biden is literally a nazi-communist.

And Trump didn’t call soldiers losers and suckers. He denies it, and multiple people present have confirmed this.

You do understand my point here.

About the ethics of purposely introducing an unproven narrative about a candidate a week before ballots go out, so that people vote before the candidate has time to prove the accusation is false.

Not disqualifying (such as being born a citizen of a foreign nation or being under 35) but it would be a solid reason not to vote for him

And it's a far cry that an enemy of Trump's comes out of the woodwork just before the election making a claim of something that supposedly happened two years ago that no one thought to report two years ago?

He's pointing out the left wing hypocrisy but some lefties here on DP are too stupid to figure that out.

And what would that hypocrisy be? Do tell specifically so we can all laugh at you when you fail again.

Funny, I thought the same thing when first reading it. I’m not sure they’re stupid though. I think they know exactly what they’re doing.

Even the communists are not really communists anymore, other then a few die hard academics scattered here and there across the world, the communist movement is dead. The stories about Trump calling soldiers suckers and losers was corroborated by the journalists writing the story and by others including Fox News. Just because Trump has yet to take them to court means nothing. And the line about it being unfair to do such a thing just before an election is hard to take from the Benghazi, emails, witch hunt crowd.
