you prefer Biden over Bernie so yes

Warren was not a serious contender. If you support Bennie but were willing to settle for Warren, that's one thing. If you support Warren and then when she predictably loses you default to the establishment then you were always an establishment voter.

Actually not true, Bootygag was a gay and I didn't support him.

Sorry, Marie, but you folk are going to burn in eternal damnation.

I never knew "Bernie is a Jew." I can't recall a single joke he ever told.

Because if not being seen is better than being seen then a candidate with something to say would be an improvement.

I mean agree to disagree but the reason I was mad at 42% of the country for being lazy pieces of **** was that it was a split result over the popular/electoral winners.

I'm a middle class white city dweller and I have no stock portfolio. Maybe the way you see things isn't correct.

Then who are you fighting for? Who do you think Biden will represent? Who do you think Biden's biggest donors will be?

Questions 2 and 3 are irrelevant. And I keep pointing this out but no one will listen, the Presidency has been blocked by Congress for the last 10 years. Whoever wins will represent no one if both chambers belong to the opposite party.

I mean Wall Street donated to Obama, and he passed substantial regulation for the financial sector. You think Biden's going to have more clout than Barack? No.

I think Biden is a Union guy at heart, and that's likely who he's going to help first and foremost. What I am worried about is finance and pharma, but that's why I'm voting for congressional seats to go to progressive candidates.

I'm sorry do you think that the people paying for Biden's election aren't relevant?

I'm gonna need some serious evidence that Democratic presidents side with unions and not financial interests.

Why the **** would you think Biden is a union guy at heart? What about his history says anything about him supporting unions?

If you are talking about "organ" donors I doubt if Biden will need a new kidney or liver, maybe a brain donor would be the biggest donor there. But if you're talking about "financial" donors I think perhaps Goodyear, Gillette, Google, Facebook, George Soros, Jeb Bush, Twitter, TikTok, Clinton Cash, and perhaps Corn Pop.

Anteater 08-31-2020 11:09 PM

I've warmed up to Soros a little bit since I realized he's the spitting image of Emperor Palpatine.

Donald Trump should invite him to moderate the debates.

Now I know why Batlord is so angry. He's part of the Shadow Cabal that runs Biden's campaign.

Watch that whole press conference. All partisanship aside, that man is not well.

As they say in politics: If you're explaining, you're losing.

Anteater 09-01-2020 05:50 PM

Noice.

Business Insider - The Trump administration is moving to implement a 4-month eviction moratorium for tenants earning under $99,000 a year

OccultHawk 09-01-2020 07:28 PM

That kicks ass.

OccultHawk 09-01-2020 07:30 PM

Biden would never do that. He’d be like oh noes what about the landlords.

Watch the hate come in at me as if the Dems ever did anything half this righteous

I guess Trump ain't getting those critical landlord votes in November.

Wouldn't get them anyway. They're all foreign Chinese nationals anyway. All sworn to the CPC. The fleecing of America.

No, OH is right. We should all just **** our copy of the Communist Manifesto and tell other people they're complicit until the system fixes itself.

OccultHawk 09-02-2020 04:17 AM

**** loads of tenants are just going to move leaving ****tons of landlords in the lurch. That’s awesome af.

The new rent moratorium sucks the ding dong

You have to register for all this **** that will leave you more on the hook for it than if you just didn’t apply and skipped out as late as possible

**** you President Donald J Trump

Still better than paying the landlords at full retail. I'm honestly surprised Trump is the one pushing for any kind of help toward tenants rather than the Dems.

It's money on the table. If the Dems won't take it, Trump should. Next, Trump should undercut the Biden/Harris ticket by federally decriminalizing marijuana (or promising to after getting elected).

Could he do that with an executive order? I'm honestly not sure.
