Dems are fine with coronations involving no voter participation. We well understand that. We might not agree with it or choose to engage in it ourselves, but we won't be at all surprised if, going forth, Dems will watch polls and boot as a regular procedure whenever polls look really concerning to them.
Biden wasn't encouraged to drop his candidacy because of polls. Had that been the case it would have happened months and months ago . It was his debate performance which simply could not be overlooked. If not for that he would still be the candidate and Trump would be the next President. Now the Dems have a real shot. It won't be easy but at least now there is a race and new found enthusiasm.
 
It seems that the GOP is trying to recycle the teleprompter attack from the Obama campaign.
I don't remember that. I thought Obama, like many presidents, loved to speak. Didn't he even hold and speak at large gatherings in college?

Maybe I vaguely remember he didn't do many news conferences but even that is a little vague after 8 years.
 
I wonder what it would like to be Trump or even a Trump supporter and to lie about absolutely everything and feel no shame or remorse.

Must be the same ethical framework that allows religious folks to support a dude who cheated on his wife with a pornstar.
and yet you support a woman who slept her way to advancement with a married man.... go figure!

I don’t have a list of stats for that, so I can’t say.
 
They saw the writing on the wall. They put into place or had already had in place, the whole "joy" and "jubilation", race, sex, white guilt, Obama the reincarnation set up. This stuff doesn't happen over night, it was well coordinated.
Turn the channel.....
 
The Obamas presented two very good and different speeches that were both calls to action but also reminding us of the commonality we need to restore. Barack Obama's speech was great at covering a wide breadth of topics and pointing out that it shouldn't be just an "us vs. them" mentality, which we need to hear more of. That kind of messaging is closer to what centrists in this country are looking to achieve, because it's obvious that as a divided nation we won't be able to move forward the way we should.

I loved the unity that they were both calling for. All the bullshit the right has put them through, and they are still tasking us with being fair.

They saw the writing on the wall, it was planned. If not planned, why didn't they go through the process. They cheat at everything!
 
My thoughts are - Trump just hates the teleprompter so sticking to it would just about kill him.

Harris can't breathe without it and trump can't breathe with it.
Yes, he does lack discipline but that doesn't change the fact he cannot string two coherent sentence together without it.
 
Did you watch that world class phony shit show? I don't know about you but we were waiting for the heavens to open after the Obamas "fight for our freedoms" nonsense.

How soon they forget their own dirty hands while performing a political coup. How are people that blinded and how many will buy their snake oil?
People who "fight for OUR freedoms" don't do this.

Phony outrage.

Democrats broke no rules, they didn't cheat, and their choice in their own party, was overwhelmingly supported by Democrats.

Trump literally broke numerous laws in an attempt to steal the 2020 election with his fake elector coup and capitol attack.
Trump literally cheated for years with his Trump charity, paying himself like it was a piggy bank.
Trump engaged fraud for decades with his real estate empire, cheating the system to the degree that he's being fined hundreds of millions.

You are not serious. Why do you do it? Are you paid or a volunteer? Be honest.
 
We very much look forward to hearing any policy news on Thursday. Do you think we will?
I looked forward to last Friday and it was worth the wait in a shocking kind of way
You didn't like her policy.....fair ball. However, you can't say she didn't speak policy, she did.
 
I have so much I could say about the above, but I was told not to pollute the thread by leftists playing MODs. Isn't that right, @Allan?
Isn't accusing a member of playing Mod in of itself playing Mod? You've just accused me of breaking the rules here. How is that not playing Mod?

As for my post I wasn't playing Mod in that I didn't accuse you of breaking a rule. Polluting the forum is permitted.
