US Politics

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.

Two years to get stuff done. They need to kill the filibuster and put their heads down. Cocaine Mitch is a useless tool who only cares about power.

Young chicken compared to Dianne Feinstein who I believe is close to 200 years old.

203, pretty close. 

But, at some point, he just won't be able to do it. It takes a lot of energy to be president (45, notwithstanding).

Feinstein? I thought she was going by her maiden name, Methuselah.

Harris/Butiegieg in 2024

Any Republican says unity with a straight face  should go pound sand, they let a madman try to destroy the United States bullying, name calling lies and racist right to the bitter end, they had to treat him with kid gloves like a petulant child thinking he was their meal ticket now they need to shut up and take their medicine

Biden has already indicated that he plans to be a one term President and try to heal the country and set it up for another to govern. He said his VP pick would be someone he could see stepping in after 4 years, so Harris-Warren/Buttigeg/Klobuchar all possibilities. Bernie would be even older than Joe (83 by the next election) so I think his time has passed. Wild card might be Stacey Abrams. But a lot can happen in 4 years. Could be someone off the radar right now. 

Abrams has all the qualifications needed to be a great president or vice president, but I do not think that America is ready for a Harris/Abrams double black woman slate. It was a small miracle that Obama made it to the oval office.

America is still more sexist than it is racist.

I  watched some of Fauci's interview on CNN- it was all he could do to not come right out and denounce Trump as a fourletterwording moron.
