These men, and I use the term loosely, were not voting for Trump anyway, so this is just another show and another example of Dimocraps putting people in little buckets to divide us.

Another Harris policy to discuss, free Medicare for all, citizen or not. Talk about breaking the system. Typical left wing loon position. Would of course lead to higher taxes and more government spending. Be one of one hundred million to vote to save this country as we know it. Too big to rig.

I just give up and keep on trucking. Was in Home Depot getting hardware and still quite unsure if it was a man or a woman waiting on me.

Biden attempting to limp across the finish line, but will he make it,
Market set to crash
Iran about to attack Israel
Inflation continues to kill middle class
Gas prices still double what they were during Trump administration.
New gangs of illegals ready to cross border in mass.
Men dominating women's sports.

But Kamala can save the day, why? because she is a woman of color. That is all.

Makes sense to about half the country.
Be one of one hundred million to vote to end the madness. Too big to rig.

Hate to break it to you, this started with Ronnie winning in 1980.

Oil Shocks of the 1970's created a MASSIVE wealth transfer from US industry to oil producers. Killed Nixon, Ford, and Carter (none of the 3 will ever get credit for not going into another Great Depression). Ronnie started the massive debt to not feel the pain in his administration and pushed it forward. For the next 1/2 century all but 1 year added to the debt and pushed it forward. DJT added the most in his tenure and Sleepy Joe is #2.

The other issue is wealth concentration staring with Ronnie in 1980. What used to be the wealthy 5% in your city has progressed to 5% in your state to 5% in the USA to 5% in the Earth. We raise minimum wage at say 1% a year ant that is offset by living expenses rising at 5%. Real US taxpaying citizens earnings power has dropped like a rock since 1980 and the "Greed is Good" mantra.

Quit blaming the other side and blame BOTH sides till they sit at the table together and fix it for the middle class (not the poor and the super rich).

Cheese, your middle of the road blame everybody attitude is worse than a tie in a baseball game. I am talking about today and what will affect us in the future, while you give history lessons. There is no comparison in the next 4 years of a Harris regime vs 4 years of Trump. That is the bottom line, the rest is BS for another time. One side is to blame for our current conditions and only one candidate will change the course that we are on of self-destruction.

The problem is almost half the country is too blind to see it or reaping the benefits of government handouts that they don't want to lose.

DJT is a crook, I know this personally, and can not vote for him

I do not know Camel woman but have little faith


Point is voting for either DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM

Dems blame DJT

MAGA blames Dems

Do you not see the insanity of voting for either?

My family grew up around him and his dad.

It has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with the person.

You got that right, it's called Trump Derangement Syndrome.

That statement is soooooo wrong, it is all about policy. Policy is what determines the path of the country, I don't care if he is an arse, just have policies that benefit the country.

Mister Rogers would have been a failure as a President although he was a nice guy.

No, there is a better and a worse candidate for the country. i will always vote for the better candidate. You have two choices in November Harris or Trump and there is no doubt which one is best for the country.

Anyone who doesn't vote for Trump knows this and votes regardless of what it will do to the country, I call that "cutting off your nose to spite your face."

so, petty differences in your personal life are what drives your decision to vote for a particular candidate?


not that Trump kept us out of conflicts?

gas prices were low.

groceries were low.

taxes were low.

illegal immigration was low.


you'd continue to vote for the Biden administration by proxy. the same administration that:

fumbled the afghanistan pull out

allowed ukraine to happen (not directly but on his watch)

allowed israel to happen (not directly but on his watch)

allowed inflation to happen

wants to increase taxes via dumping the Trump tax cuts

created the crisis at the border for no reason


this administration has had one fumble after another and you're willing to vote for it. that's ridiculous.

In Chesses' defense, he says that he isn't voting for either Harris or Trump and I hope that he is at least smart enough not to vote for Harris. He believes that voting for a write in candidate is going to make a statement.
I give him credit for at least not voting for Harris, but he is just wasting his vote to make a point. Cutting off his nose to spite his face.

We agree here!

IKE was all about foreign policy

Nixon was all about foreign policy


If either were alive today I would cast my vote for them

Ford was a good VP but not POTUS material. Would still vote him today over DJT or Camel

Ronnie was a face puppet but better that folks claiming to be MAGA now. Close members of my family worked high up in his administration and even they know the truth of public appeal but nobody home.

Would put Bush Sr behind IKE and Nixon. Would vote for him today

Bush Jr was a putz and the wrong younger Bush to be POTUS. Too tied to the Global Elite and not enough of a spine to do good for the average US citizen and taxpayer

DJT is a mob boss "wanna be" like the folks he and his dad grew up around. I do not consider him a politician or an honest businessman. He certainly is being led around by the nose by the Red Commies outside of the USA. You may not believe this because you are following the DJT "image" and not the DJT "reality". I grew up in south Florida when the carpet joints first popped up down there. I lived in the area and knew the people when I saw them at Gulfstearm, Hialeah, Castaways, Wolfies, and the old Sicilian fish market (name escapes me now) in Hollywood between the racetrack and the Water Tower.

This is not my "philosophy" you keep implying, this is my real life and personal interactions.

I agree

Mr Rogers was the carrot
Nixon was the stick

DJT is a neither, just a phony.

Correct

If either were on fire I would not piss on them to put it out.

If nobody does this, you assure Mutually Assured Destruction by rewarding the "blame thrower" instead of the moderate who actually creates policies that benefit legal US taxpaying citizens like me who vote in every election and worked in law enforcement for at least a quarter of a century focused on making sure elections were fair and true, no matter who we had to throw in jail.

Did you retire before the 2020 election? or sleep thru the process?

You can't really believe that a failed politician that campaigned from his basement got 81 million votes, more than Obama, Clinton or any presidential candidate in history?

I am laughing at you on this and anyone else who believes the same.

2020 was stolen, that is why 100 million ballots need to be cast for Trump in 2024, too big to rig.

When one of those guys you keep talking about show up, there are not any right now on the ballot, I will consider voting for them, right now it is a waste of your vote, and you are cutting off your nose to spite your face.
