Clinton lied… he admitted that he lied. We all know that he lies (or lied… who knows?). On the other hand, Trump tells lie after lie, and his supporters are like “well, we all know that the economy wasn’t the best ever, but Trump just likes to exaggerate and use hyperbole.” Every single legal scholar was NOT in favor of returning abortion decisions back to the states. “Half of legal scholars” is probably a more accurate statement, but can’t be proven… but “all legal scholars” is instantly proven to be a lie. For whoever keeps posting “what lies?” The biggest lie of all was that there was widespread election fraud. He still repeats it to this day when there has never been one shred of proof that election fraud occurred. Just because he (and most of you) believe in it as much as you believe that Jesus Christ died for our sins doesn’t make it true. The actual truth is that the economy was doing pretty good during the first part of Trump’s administration, even if it was unsustainable because of ballooning deficits/debt. But the. COVID happened on his watch…. And as much as y’all would like to blame it on democrat governors for shutting down their states… most governors are Republican AND they couldn’t have shut things down if trump wasn’t signing spending bills that gave out trillions frivolously. Even if you want to blame everyone else, then you have to admit that trump was powerless to stop it from happening.

There was a lot of chatter and i don’t remember the specifics. In my mind those Uber-progressive “restrictions” were either I response to, or the cause of, the hard push from the right to get Roe v Wade overturned. I liked the way that Trump framed his beliefs (exceptions to abortion bans for specified reasons… rape, incest, health of the mother). His beliefs don’t line up with the radical right on the issue and for once it looked like he thought and tried to articulate his actual opinion instead of appeasing his followers. THAT dude would have more support.

And for what it’s worth, can we stop calling something we don’t agree with “a lie?” That’s literally what people are doing now, media included. If Trump says “I don’t think climate change is that big of a deal, some tree hugger will yell “he’s a liar!” And the talking heads will put another tic mark on the lie list. I saw the other day where some jerk researched trump’s presidency and said “he averaged 21 lies per day.” I agree that he’s a liar, but come on… 21 per day? They’re like “…then Trump said Biden is doing a bad job… another lie.”

That’s not a lie… in the buildup to the reversal of Roe v Wade, some states (like Texas) were putting in very restrictive abortion bans that would take effect on the off chance that Roe v Wade was overturned. Other states (like Virginia) set in place rules even less restrictive than the ones in Roe v Wade…. And the Governor of Virginia was proud to say that abortion was legal right up until the baby was born. [Hidden Content] FWIW, a state rep from Va authored a bill that would loosen restriction. Asked to clarify, she said that a woman who was actively dialated would be able to request an abortion. After an uproar, she backtracked. [Hidden Content] The headline of the article incorrectly states that trump’s statement was a lie… it’s not, IMO.

I’m not talking about today… I’m saying that IF Trump gets elected (which I doubt), the universe basically ensures that he (Trump) will be in even worse shape than Biden by the end of his term, if such a thing as karma actually exists…. That’s just the risk of mocking an old dude, while simultaneously picking an old dude to take his place.

Hear me out… Biden has been greatly diminished over the last four years. That’s painfully obvious. Age is relative. One person at 75 can mirror somebody else at 81… heck, a fifty-six year old with early onset dementia behaves like 81-year old Biden. But if there’s one thing I’m sure of, Karma exists, what comes around goes around, and the people calling names and laughing at Biden while simultaneously nominating an equally geriatric candidate will no doubt get a taste of their own medicine if he gets elected. It’s just the way that the world works.

My thoughts? Trump by a mile. I wish he’d have avoided the Hunter/Election stuff. The whole “I wouldn’t have been indicted if I weren’t running” works… “your son is a felon, too” might get MAGA to cheer, but not the people who aren’t committed. I wish he didn’t preach to the choir so much. By comparison, the non-partisans might feel like the better choice is Trump. Biden was so bad that I could see him stepping out or being forced out of the race. Here’s the big news… I’m hedging my bets somewhat. Pay attention. If Biden stays in, I like Trump’s chances better than I did before the debate. He had a really good performance. Kinda makes me wonder what would have happened if Trump had performed like this in ‘20.

Y’all worship a man who brags about sexually assaulting women, then cry big ol’ crocodile tears when a jury believes him. We all know he did it. Y’all don’t thing he should get in trouble. It’s the reason that football players have gotten away with raping cheerleaders for decades. “But he does so much for us! It was just horseplay that got out of hand. She asked for it. Boys will be boys.” Trump is a rapist.

Yes, he is. A verdict was reached in a civil trial, and a jury of DJT’s neighbors felt that the plaintiff’s attorneys proved to them, upon a preponderance of the evidence, that Donald Trump raped her. Add to that, the fact that Donald Trump’s character attacks on the victim cost him over 300 million dollars in damages… and why was she able to win that judgment? Because she’d already proven that he raped her. It’s a fact. The matter is settled. He did it. And the comical part is that he previously admitted to sexually assaulting other women. Admitted, hell…. He bragged about it to reporters. The fact that you love him doesn’t do anything to the fact that he’s a rapist.
