Presidential options / Blasphemous rumors

TAE

All you have is now
I'm starting to think maybe God really does have a sick sense of humor.

After watching Donald bumble his way through last nights roast....I mean "Town Hall Meeting" I was left with a sick feeling in my stomach... This is best choice I am being offered to vote for the person who will lead the kind of, sort of, maybe most powerful nation in the world? I mean yeah he's not as bad as Biden IMO but holy shit...This is the best America has to offer for our next president? We are truly in a hell of mess and I feel we've been given some pretty pathetic options to vote for.

It's an incredibly impossible position to take on in these days of microscopic scrutiny ...I mean like down to what damn toilet paper you use to wipe your ass kind of scrutiny.

Maybe that's why anyone with true American Presidential mental capabilities is not even trying to run as they have enough common sense to see it is a lose lose situation...You'd have to be fucked up head to want to run...either Narcissist, Sociopath, Psychopath or Masochist to want the damn job.

It's like I'm in a bad dream where I'm trying to run and my legs won't move...watching a train wreck happen in extremely slow motion..

So God if you're listening...This isn't funny and if you're in a good mood maybe consider throwing us a bone and toss us a hail Mary miracle cause this comic tragedy is getting to look pretty scary... A simple parting of the waters type of thing where the two current candidates are replaced by two that don't make us feel guilty for having to choose the lesser evil of these two pathetic candidates.

God bless America cause it sure seems the devil is having his way with us.

Like I said awhile back in another thread...if anyone is going to hate on Trump, OK...but please don't say that Biden/Harris is some kind of an upgrade.

:facepalm:

That said...I agree that it's sad the Dems, out of the 3 dozen candidates, couldn't find a single one that was really impressive...which also applies to the Hilary/Trump election in 2016, I hoped they would both lose at the time, but I knew that wasn't possible, and I did have much less desire to see Hilary as president than Trump, who as not all that appealing...but I see NO reason to switch out Trump now for a Biden/Harris administration.

I only hope that in 2024 there will be fresh, new, interesting, and worthy candidates to pick from on both sides.
 
Oops...I just realized I made a mistake in my post above...I should have said: "but I see NO reason to switch out Trump now for a Harris/Biden administration"...because we all know that's what it will really be, and Biden is just a shill for Harris and the radical left.
He just wanted to see what it feels like to sit at the head of the table in the Oval Office for a bit...get his name on some letterheads...and then he'll go take a nap while Harris runs the administration.
Eventually Pelosi and her "commission" will rule that Biden is not capable of acting as president (something that's already pretty obvious)...and they will formally make Harris president.

C'mon...EVERYONE knows that's going to happen...so do you REALLY want a radical socialist in place of Trump (no matter how much you don't like him)...?
 
Do you REALLY want a radical socialist in place of Trump (no matter how much you don't like him)...?

Nope...But I'm still hoping and praying for a miracle...Like God appears up in the sky and says Whoa! enough is enough...neither of these fools are worthy of running America...so I am telling you all today write in on your ballot "Elon Musk" ..if you don't I will strike you down with lightning when you step out of the polling both and then send you to hell for a good part of eternity :eek:...And then Elon could pull us all together and electrify us with his genius ways. A guy can dream :D
 
I don't have any specific info about God showing up before the election...but I honestly don't think that will happen...but if he does, I don't think Elon Musk will be his candidate of choice. :)
 
Go back before Covid hit. Imagine there is no twitter and Trump occasionally kept his mouth shut. Trump would rightfully be considered the best President this country has had in decades. The US has been doing great these past 3+ years. Unemployment at an all-time low, salaries going up. Imagine if the Democrats assisted Trump in getting things accomplished. If there was ever a President without a partisan agenda, it's Trump. He's a tough negotiator. They could have dealt with it. He'd have gladly met them in the middle. Instead, they worked the past 3+ years to prove this President isn't the legitimate President. So much for the peaceful transfer of power.

Trump listens to all arguments then decides. I would imagine very much like he did on The Apprentice. His problems haven't been the policies, it's the tweets.

For anyone who thinks race relations in the US deteriorated under Trump, I'll merely point to Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and Freddy Gray ALL under Obama. All contained RIOTS and protests, and ALL were shown to have no wrongdoing.

Whether Trump or Biden wins. It's just a change in the decision maker. Neither one will destroy the USA. We'll lose money from our wallets if Biden takes office. If they win all the houses and enact some insane portions of the green new deal, the Dems will lose power from all facets of government for a generation. Republicans and most Democrats are not socialists. Enact major changes to socialism, and you'll see how quickly it's struck down when Republicans take power back.

Since we're basically forced retired now, and probably won't be looking for full-time work anymore, I kind of hope for socialist healthcare. BECAUSE all these celebrities who were Bernie supporters and give free healthcare to all, will see their taxes go from 50% to 80 or 90% and then they'll see just how fucked up their ideals were. I'll never understand how celebrities who complain about the 1% don't realize they are part of the 1%.
 
I kind of hope for socialist healthcare.

Dude I am not collecting SSI yet at 67 but I am on the Medicare gravy train....It is a socialist thing and it and the medical world are a disgusting sham.. I have been through some monster skin cancer battles the last two years...huge operations, radiation, immunotherapy...the gamut...Not looking for sympathy...I got through it tattered and torn and hopefully get to hang around for a while. But I got to tell you looking at what my "non profit" City of Hope billed medicare and my $150 a month supplemental insurance it made me sick to see the cost...of course it's a game and medicare only pays so much...E.G. the immunotherapy...serious... a single 16 0unce bag that they infused me with 4 times and encouraged me to do more when it was doing NOTHING to help...billed out at $45K " for each single 16 ounce infusion....!" They ONLY PAID $15K...same kind of shit with the PET scans , Radiation treatment ( 45 runs in the Topo tube), MRI's and doctor visits...It was in the millions for silly little ol me and my little cancer game.. based on my personal experience and observation watching just at COH the 1000's of people far worse off than me getting their treatments ( majority on Medicare) this shit is unsustainable...It will come to an end...so enjoy it while you can... Nowhere in the world does a government ran health system work as good as what we have right now and what we have right now is all screwed up....My wife who is 62 is paying WITH COVERED CALIFORNIA almost $6K a year... ridiculous ...but that is Blue Cross PPO...sheesh!

Clearly we pray to different Gods :laughings: All in good fun Miro! But it is an interesting question....

Howsa about everybody throwing some names in the hat for who YOU THINK would be a great alternative to the two we currently are forced to choose from?

Best Presidents don't have six convicted felons from their inner circle, nor do they separate immigrant children from their mothers for sport, or suck up to dictators, or pay hush money to **** stars, or shit all over NATO, all while doubling the deficit for no apparent reason (which were the projections before he royally screwed up the covid response).

Best Presidents don't tell 20,000 documented lies in 4 years:

My hoping was sarcasm (I know it's hard to tell online). Sorry for your issues. The healthcare system is completely fucked up. But, if it went to free for all, there would be no healthcare. My wife's brother is a pathologist and makes millions a year. That's the same for most Doctors in the US. Give free healthcare to all, and many will just retire. Who would give up 70% of their time for the same you could make doing office work? Because they won't be charging the same fees. There's over 330 million people in the US. It would be untenable.

Trump and Republicans came up with a great idea - a price list. It would be hard. But fair. Two people of different means can go to the same hospital for the same treatment, and because of their financial situations, be charged drastically different.

Goodrx.com: If you go to get a prescription without healthcare it's one price, with healthcare another, and with this app it could be another price. By being kept in the dark, Doctors and pharmaceutical companies can do and charge whatever they like. Open up the market (over state lines) and the free market would do a lot to bring costs down. Poor people always had medicaid. The large burden on healthcare is illegal immigrants. Unable to afford a regular Doctor, they go to emergency rooms where they can't be denied care. Then they just don't pay. If they can't afford $100 for a Doctor visit, they sure can't afford thousands for an emergency room visit. That loss is passed onto the US citizen in their premiums.

The system is broken. Obamacare made everything worse. Whoever gets elected should try to fix it. Since ACB will be on the Supreme Court, the Obama mandate will be deemed unconstitutional (if it isn't, it's certainly unfair), and everyone's premiums will skyrocket. The best thing to be in the US for healthcare is POOR. I am. I think I'm finally at the point I can get free NJ healthcare. Of course we're soon moving to PA.
 
So IBB, do you think Biden is a better choice??? And why????

Biden is a moderate mild mannered dude who will cater to America's best self.

Because Biden trusts in science and will allow scientists to do their jobs.

Biden will support our traditional allies (UK, Canada, France, etc.).

Biden will work to expand healthcare coverage.

Biden will provide a coherent plan for dealing with coronavirus.

Biden will reduce wealth inequality.

Biden will not be making headlines a dozen times a day, and this will be good for the country by letting us focus on things other than politics all the time.

Biden supports campaign finance reform.

Biden supports meaningful police reform.

Biden will provide disaster relief to California.

Biden supports an independent justice department.

Biden will encourage Democracy throughout the world.

Biden will fight for basic human decency for immigrants and their children.

Biden has an experienced and qualified team around him.

Biden will support Hong Kong.

Biden will pressure China to stop their terrible treatment of the Uighurs.

Biden will support climate change initiatives.

Biden will rejoin and enforce the Iran nuclear deal.
 
Mel Brooks. A far superior candidate

At 94 he's pushing the clock of life...But I'd a voted for him in a heart beat 30 years ago...He's a brilliant, funny man. Missed it by that much!

Thanks for sharing and clarifying. But...... here’s the but :)

He’s corrupt. He’s had plenty of time in government to do a ‘good’ job and hasn’t.

Now don’t get me wrong, Trump’s corrupt too.

I don’t like ANY of them.

Libs keep talking about ‘systemic racism’.
That’s just a wedge issue, but not the problem.

What we have is a governmental ‘systemic corruption’ problem.

They’re all corrupt.


But thanks for sharing, and I’ll let others debate the finer points of Biden’s attributes. ;)

Trump just like every other politician has corrupt people around them. ALL POLITICIANS are CORRUPT. The people around them are corrupt. It's now coming out, how Trump was targeted. Which means the people around him were targeted.

OBAMA separated children from their families. That famous PHOTO of the children in cages is from the Obama Presidency (2014 I think). You don't want to be separated, stay in your own country.

What dictator did he suck up to? Being nice to N. Korea or Russia. OMG trying to get something positive started. Shame on Trump.

Nato ALLIES HAVEN'T GIVEN A FRACTION OF WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO SINCE IT'S CONCEPTION. They deserved to be shamed.

Hush money to **** stars? Big Deal. He's a rich, successful businessman. Of course there's skeletons in the closet. **** stars are probably low on the totem pole.

Bush and Obama, they kept the deficit in check.

No offense, you don't even recognize state boundaries. So, your opinion is of little worth to anyone who actually wants to attempt to make a point on right or wrong (fact or fiction). Start with reality and work forward.
