I wouldn't trust anything he has to say. Biden's lead is way too great to be attributed just to that. Maybe if you could go around planting them in specific crucial counties in the key battleground states, maybe. I'd have to see some peer review.

Republicans are always repeating their own BS. "Staying on message" and all that. The Wizard of Fox behind the curtain makes up the list early each morning and the minions waddle about like penguins repeating them one by one. I still don't see any proof of this. I need to see the math add up.

Here's an example of exactly what I'm talking about. They're all now leaning into the QAnnon BS. Watch what happens here. It's astounding. They actually continue to embellish the story as they bat it back and forth.

Rasmussen would like to position these grifters and frauds to be pandered to by democrats in every election going forward, at least that would salvage something for them as far as a narrative if they don't win. I give these so called "never trump" republicans zero praise, their platform and agenda is ultimately the same as trump's agenda, they are benefitting greatly from everything trump is doing, they just don't like his decorum and the fact he is mean and says the parts they like to whisper a little too loudly for them, they don't disagree with him on policy. That party is clearly the trump/qanon cult of personality now and if they are still in it, they have to own all of it. Or leave the party. Idgaf about some never hitler nsdap member either

Btw, I heard some disturbing reports related to climate change activist, Bill McKibbon, and those entities standing to make a lot of money from this endeavor. The upshot is that the Deal is dirty because McKibbon went rogue and partnered up with the other moneymakers thus contaminating the recipe.

Take in donations, invest it in their own businesses, use those investments as proof of hard work, and then take credit for voting trends that existed before they got in place...it's almost Trumpian in and of itself.

From who? Ever since the Michael Moore documentary got blown up and debunked (and he doubled down on it so badly that one of his own former editors trashed him and his new fact checkers), I'm extremely curious about what sources are targeting McKibben and how they've reached their conclusions. I've seen plenty of allies fall off and sell out but I've also seen the left cannibalize its own on shoddy rumors and hearsay that seem planted (Buttar and Morse being recent examples).

I like this argument, because it really shows how full of sh*t you people are

So, you claim you can't vote for or support Biden because his kid is a criminal. I have no problem with this, if the allegations are true (which given how you believed the NYPost story despite how laughably easily disproven it is I doubt but let's assume they're true), but you have no issue with Trump's kids leveraging their fathers' position to enrich themselves or the fact that Trump himself has violated just about every emoluments clause on the books

Almost like you view politics as a team sport, where you're fine with your team doing something but the other team doing it is abhorrent. Surely I'm wrong and as a free thinker you can't in good faith vote for or support Trump because his kids are criminals, right?

Ivanka and Jared are the true super criminals.

Jared actively traded WH influence for hundreds of million dolllars, Exh. A being the blockade of Qatar after they rejected Kushner's overtures for them to bail him out of 666 Fifth Avenue.

Jared's family traveled to China to put on presentations that guaranteed American citizenship if people bought into their U.S. real estate projects.

Jared engineered a deal to bypass congressional approval to give the Saudis sensitive nuclear technology that outraged even the GOP Sentate which shot it down.

Ivanka and Jared are tied at the hip.

Ivanka was the lead on multiple Trump Organization projects, some of which like the one in Azerbeijan were directly connected to foreign mafia groups and were money laundering fronts. She was working closely with Felix Sater on the Soho property. He has turned state evidence so that may come out eventually too.

Donald Jr. was busted for charity fraud. NYS shut down the Trump charity he ran.

Yeah no one should even respond to his nonsense. Just let him shout into the void and his own eco chamber. It definitely makes you question the character and sanity of a lot of posters on realgm.

Trolls can make up whatever new thing they want, and then they put the onus on us to prove them wrong. As soon a we do, they make up another new thing. And so on and so forth...

We enable them by engaging on issues that have no merit. That's what they want. It is tiresome. Why would we even want to do that? I don't.

So....everything about Hunter Bidens laptop is fake news? I can't anymore. Anything damaging against either side is fake news. Everyone claims this. So what isn't fake news?

What does Trump even stand for? Goldman Sachs in the administration. He stands for weird stuff like QAnon and even on that, he is just keeping them as an ally. I still can't come up with a short sentence of stuff Trump has fought for or what he believes. The populist stuff is fully a bunch of BS.

Now granted, Biden is not a populist either. He is a moderate who will try to fix problems ... for now that's about as good as it gets.

He took on China with uncertain results that are more symbolic it seems than substantive, improved NAFTA a little. The rest is a bunch of phony populism and very crazy conspiracy stuff with no founding in reality. And of course he's also a traditional conservative ... protecting rich people and businesses.
