Lets see if we can keep this thread a little more civil.

I found this interview very interesting.  A lot of soft balls thrown at Trump, he explained his back pedalling on his more extreme issues as a lot of his claims as opening bids for negotiation purposes.  Which .. whatever .. I still think that those are insincere claims he used to get elected.

He does now come across way more presidential then he did prior to the election.  A lot of his noise, yelling, and rhetoric has been scaled back.

Do respect this one though:

Lesley Stahl: Are you gonna take the salary, the president’s salary?

Donald Trump: Well, I’ve never commented on this, but the answer is no. I think I have to by law take $1, so I’ll take $1 a year. But it’s a -- I don’t even know what it is.

Donald Trump: Do you know what the salary is?

Lesley Stahl: $400,000 you’re giving up.

Donald Trump: No, I’m not gonna take the salary. I’m not taking it.

Smarmy flyhead that he is.

 

Trump now telling everyone that has Covid they will get the same medicine he received for free, good luck with that, in the next couple of weeks he will be begging for vote's.

He lies just as much as Trump, shows his hypocrisies just as much as Trump, but does it just more calmly than Trump's bluster.

So..... an American Stephen Harper?

 

 

REGENERON!

 

 

I always look forward to project Lincoln stuff... 

Buzz around DC is that VP Pence has cancelled all events starting tomorrow and flying back to Washington.

Typical stuff from the knickerbocker King.

 

Diminished capacity at least..

 

Problem is that after  Biden wins, the fascist Republican Party is still there, and so are the millions of racists that are its source of power.

The Democrats need to extinguish the Republicans for years to come. 

Look at Canada’s experience the last four or so years. U.S. constantly Shitting on us.
 

Not going to be easy to regain trust world wide after the Trump /Republican fiasco. Threatening to ignore election results. 

Who knows, another, Smarter Trump  could be their next candidate. They’ve got q annon types that are going to be senators.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Meh, let Murica's COVID-infested MAGAts dump on us - and whatever other country that has better standing in the international community and quality of life for its citizens. If ignorant deflection and shitting on others make them feel better about their dumpster fire of a nation, let 'em fill their boots with that hilarious delusion.

I think regardless of who wins the election next month, the road ahead for the USA is going to be a turbulent one. I just hope, for the sake of the world, it's the road that slopes upward and not the opposite direction.

 

13 people are now charged

 

Order more Regeneron...

...American extremist ideology is on the rise — spurred in part, Michigan AG Dana Nessel [sic] says, by President Trump.

Early reports of the thwarted plan suggested members of two militia groups, including one called the Wolverine Watchmen, were behind the conspiracy to violently overthrow the state government, abduct Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer before next month's election and put her on trial for treason.

But in an interview with NPR, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel said multiple white supremacist and anti-government groups acted "in concert based on a shared extreme ideology."

"The people that we charged are affiliated with this Wolverine Watchmen group," Nessel said, adding that it is a Michigan-based group. "But there are multiple white supremacy groups and militia groups that have been acting in accordance with one another."

Investigators found the men's mission is what white supremacist groups call "the Boogaloo," which Nessel described as an uprising or a second civil war.

"This effort to have a mass uprising nationally is something that we should be very concerned about because, again, it's not just a Michigan problem, this is an American problem."

Is this not bordering on domestic terrorism? It's highly seditious behaviour at the very least. And it's beyond unsettling.

Politicians alll lie. A debate is just that, a debate. I just think Pence would appeal to a lot of disaffected voters.

He's just Trump without the yelling. He's a sick, sick, mofo who doesn't even trust himself to be in a room alone with a woman. 

He's still a better candidate than Trump. 

Don't like these merged comments. Rich, can you get rid of that function?

Not at all.

• Harper tried to use the power of government to discriminate against Muslims before Trump did (Barbaric Cultural Practices Hotline)
  • He refused to speak out against anti-Muslim violence before Trump had the opportunity to ignore it.
• Harper muzzled scientists before Trump did
• Harper government removed the word "Environment" from the Environment Canada website.  Trump admin has removed climate change references from gov websites.
• Harper called the Kyoto Protocol a "socialist scheme" before Trump started talking that way.
• The Harper government gutted protections for fresh water before Trump could do it.

Tell me how Trudeau is more like Trump than Harper was, because your simple assertion does not make it so.

The Kyoto protocol was a socialist scheme. 

I mean i am fine with governments trying to tackle climate change but Kyoto was just a wealth transfer scheme.

If wealth distribution is a byproduct of saving the planet, I'm all for it.

Tell me it isn’t so..

He's turning his back on the people that have enabled him. Crook on crook crime.

Well I'm shocked I tell you, never thought a con man would do that, as for donating to his own campaign you need money to do that and he is broke, looking forward to him selling off his properties for pennies on the dollar
