As I've said a few times before, I dont need to cover Trump. There are 20k+ posts dedicated to those same topics about Trump and his family. And your gang does it well.
So, I'll reiterate. Any defense of Biden is sad. We've had this discussion before. 8 years ago, actually. If you think Biden is a reasonable choice and vote for him because ... well, Trump, you're a reason why we keep getting lousy candidates.
Care to try again? You give me $1000 for every criticism I pull up that I've made of Biden over the last three years.
And if you don't take the wager because you know you're lying here, and know not only do I not support Biden, I DESPISE Biden and have said so DOZENS of times.....at least have the courtesy to apologize for claiming I'm a Biden guy.
All I'm doing, Kram, is mocking your repeated assertion that Biden is old, and therefore bad. It's literally the one single thing that Biden and Trump have in common....they're both old. This is a wash, and therefore a pointless thing to bring up. Next you're going to tell us Biden is unfit because he's white.
Why not simply bring up actual policies that Biden has made that you don't like? Far better discussion, and helps folks to see that they are different.

Re: ~46~ Unfit Uncle Joe Biden ~46~
Ignore what Biden has done & not done.
Ignore what Trump accomplished in his first term.
Focus on partisan fantasies about what Trump might do if elected.

Re: ~46~ Unfit Uncle Joe Biden ~46~
There's a partisan view if there ever was one.
Let me help you:
Focus on what Biden has done & not done.
Focus on what Trump did and didn't do in his first term.
There. That's how you do it. Then look at what Trump says he wants to do.......and it's cut taxes on the rich, and increase spending. again. And has not said one word about helping the working class. Again. Unless you think that exploding the debt even more, and the inflation that follows will help them.
Simple. Evenhanded. Rational. Yep, he might not do those things. But ya gotta go on something.
And focusing on Biden is pointless, imho. He's clearly going to lose, might as well focus on Trump.
Re: ~46~ Unfit Uncle Joe Biden ~46~
Focus on whether or not Biden is forced off the ballot. If Biden is still on the ballot on election day, he's just a stalking horse for a Harris Presidency which will take office on, or shortly after, Inauguration Day. ...that's why Trump could still lose.a fan wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2024 11:06 pmThere's a partisan view if there ever was one.

Re: ~46~ Unfit Uncle Joe Biden ~46~
Overthinking is when you take a situation and not being satisfied with what is in front of you you keep changing your initial plan. This is a poor example but I enjoy building birdhouses. I usually have a good idea what I want to build. Occasionally midstream I see something isn't working out right. I then try a different approach only to find out my initial plan was perfectly fine. The same problem arises when I try and decide on a paint scheme. I know what your thinking. How do you overthink a dog gone birdhouse? It usually takes me 3 days from start to finish. The more I work on one I'm always finding something I should have done differently.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2024 10:41 pmI wonder what you “think” is enough “thinking”, but not “overthinking”.cradleandshoot wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2024 6:47 pmSometimes that leads to over thinking which my experience is seldom a good thing.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2024 5:14 pmIsn't that what we should do cradle, project about things that might happen...if we elect candidate A over candidate B?cradleandshoot wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2024 2:41 pmOne problem at a time.

There is no way you would see Republicans calling for their candidate to drop out, not matter how bad it is. We have seen it. Republicans don’t lose sight of the goal which is retaining power by any means. We have seen it.

IMO, the implications are stark.
And for me, it’s a simple choice of ‘manhole cover’ over Trump/MAGA.
But others appear to find it more complicated. So, they need more‘help’ thinking through implications, pros and cons.
It’s overwhelming from my perspective, but a whole lot of others don’t have even close to a full information set.
For instance, my wife mentioned to her brother that Trump is a rapist. He didn’t even know what she was talking about, didn’t even know about the massive civil judgment and finding, much less the judge’s description post trial. No knowledge. Clueless.
If one has Fox on 24/7, one simply doesn’t know a whole lot that should be at least relevant.
Project 2025, no clue.
But they sure “know “ the country is being destroyed by liberals and migrants, that our country is a “disaster” and doomed if, heaven forbid, dems get another term in the White House.

Biden Raked Over Coals in Saturday Meeting with Dems
Politics & Policy
"Complete disaster": Biden grilled in "tense" call with moderate Dems
Andrew Solender
President Biden was raked over the coals by a group of center-left House Democrats on Saturday in what sources said was a "tense" – even "awful" – meeting aimed at stemming defections on Capitol Hill.
Why it matters: Biden got particularly animated towards a question from Rep. Jason Crow (D-Colo.) about slipping public confidence in his leadership as commander-in-chief, according to several members in the meeting.
"That was a complete disaster. We saw the same Joe Biden from the debate," said one House Democrat on the call.
"It was awful," said another lawmaker.
A third told Axios: "Members were not holding back ... it got tense with Crow for sure."
What we're hearing: Biden huddled virtually with the center-left New Democrat Coalition as part of an outreach campaign to Capitol Hill to try to stem the flow of statements calling for him to drop out.
Reps. Marc Veasey (D-Texas) and Chrissy Houlahan (D-Pa.) grilled Biden on how he plans to turn his campaign around, according to two lawmakers.
In response to Veasey asking how Biden plans to win back disaffected voters, Biden said in part that members need to do a better job advertising his administration's accomplishments.
As Houlahan outlined distressing polling numbers, Biden interrupted to try to add caveats, with Houlahan having to interject to finish her question, members said.
Zoom in: Crow's question prompted what two members described as "shouting" from Biden, who went off on a tangent and challenged the Coloradan to "name me a foreign leader who thinks I'm not the most effective leader."
"Tell me who the hell that is," Biden continued, without directly addressing Crow's question about voter confidence, saying it is "dead wrong" that foreign leaders lack confidence in him and exclaiming, "I don't want to hear that crap."
Said one member on the call: "He started shouting at Jason Crow for no reason."
A source familiar with Biden's answer stressed that the exchange ended on a positive note, with Biden saying: "If you're really getting input that I'm not strong enough, and I'd like to know more detail, because I want to deal with it."
Zoom in: After the three questions, Biden told members he had to depart for mass, one lawmaker told Axios.
Rep. Mike Quigley (D-Ill.), one of the 19 House Democrats who have publicly called for Biden to withdraw, was next up to ask a question, according to two members.
Quigley was "visibly not happy that he was not going to be able to ask a question," one of the members said.
The intrigue: Biden's meeting with the Congressional Progressive Caucus, which took place right before the New Democrats meeting, went far smoother, lawmakers told Axios.
Most of the questions on that call were effusive towards Biden except one which got "80%" of the way towards calling on Biden to drop out, one lawmaker said.
Biden laid out "ideas for how to take the agenda further," Rep. Brad Sherman (D-Calif.) said after the call, adding, "If I was his staff trying to give him some enthusiasm, I would have scheduled a call with the Progressive Caucus."
Biden announced a "major" Supreme Court reform policy in the works, according to two sources familiar with the call.
The bottom line: Lawmakers who spoke to Axios about the New Democrats call said they found Biden's answers unsatisfying and are no more assured about his path to victory than they were coming into the call.
"He had no answer to questions about his electability. He seemed oblivious to the polling that shows him losing swing states. He didn't want to hear it ... He didn't try to reassure anyone. He took no responsibility," one said.
That lawmaker said a statement calling for Biden to withdraw from the race is "under consideration" and the meeting "probably" makes it more likely they will release it.
Editor's note: This story has been updated with additional lawmaker comments.
