So the newest nonsense in MAGAland is that the GA Sec of State has a brother who works for China so they conspired together to get this administration out.

Guess who’s shameless enough to spread this lie, that despite being thoroughly debunked, will be treated as gospel by the moronic MAGAland lemmings?

This is the President of the United States using his massive platform to lie to the American people.

Don’t ask me why I voted against this POS treasonous weasel. Tell me why you voted for him despite him lying to you.

C'mon man ... can't you muster up anything better than a simple "Yes" before walking away? Forget about the fact that Bernie is doing it. That wasn't my point. My point is that Biden just walked away from a huge softball of a question. That's not what I call fighting for the American people.

Articles like this are cute but overcomplicating it - the truth is that Trump supporters think our side is the good guys who are fighting for the law and freedom (of not just America but the world), and your side is the bad guys who are supporting the corrupt tyrants who are on track to destroy our way of life they gain total power. There shouldn't be a divide this clean between good guys and bad guys, except every once in a while there is. Maybe in 2015 it was more complicated but as is often the case, as soon as the bad guys got threatened, they chose tripling down on the darkness route to get away with it, rather than make an attempt to move to the light.

Every villain in history had major parts of the population supporting them. Because they used money and power to control information and manipulate a lot of people.

Personally I'm more confident than just about anything in my life who the good guys are in this fight. Whether they win or lose in the next few weeks I feel history will vindicate that. I could not be more proud to fight for freedom in this moment even if just using words on social media.

I realize that all bets are off nowadays, but Biden is a traditionalist that believes there is only one president at a time. Getting too directly involved in specific legislation is probably a bridge too far. As it should be.

thanks for approaching the discussion. especially from the minority perspective in this thread.

wouldn't you suggest that maybe an oversimplification like your supports the concept of aggressive populism as a tenet of "trumpism?"
RIP magnumt

thanks for everything, thibs.

Oh please, spare me the pomp and circumstance.

A bridge too far? What’s so “far” about it? We have a criminal in the WH and we have a Senate majority leader - Biden’s friend! - who has turned his back on the American people during a pandemic which has or is ruining their lives. I think that in today’s pioliticque that no one would make noise about it and, if they did, all the better. A furor over it would be a good thing.
