Well on numerous occasions “Biden 2020” does that ring a bell. The liberal party and Conservative party is so far from each other so if you vote for the liberal party it pretty much means you align with liberal views. common sense.

That’s your way of thinking... why was trump the nominee other than Cruz. Because Cruz is the more conservative. I can name a handful of republicans I’ll vote in over Biden. Trump just ain’t one.

I thought that Trump was probably about the 15th best candidate at that first Republican debate in the summer of '15. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ur logic still makes no sense. but you could write in a candidate or just not vote.(I did that in 2008) if your not a democrat 5 hours ago, PAMFAM10 said: Since when has PAMFAM ever been a Democrat? then what are you? cause you can’t call yourself a conservative if your voting for Biden which is a democrat and is a very liberal party.

I’m not a conservative. You can be a American citizen with no affiliation to either party. I’m voting on what I believe is best. If that makes me a liberal in your eyes so be it.

It's basically one's ideology that either fits inside a certain party or it doesn't. So, with that being said, if your ideology makes you vote for a racist (check Biden's past if you want to be honest about this) and socialist (Biden), well, then, you are a socialist and OK with racist behavior. I'll ask the salient question: Why would a non-liberal, non-socialist find this appealing to vote for?! 5GallonBucket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that’s okay. A politician has to do two things really well. He has to make it really hard to vote for the other guy and really easy to vote for himself. Trump is pretty good at the first and really bad at the second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s the point of arguing this? It’s entirely possible that PamFam just dislikes Biden the least. It’s okay. Personally, I wouldn’t vote for Trump if there was any other viable option. He’s a jerk, but that’s kinda excusable if things are rocking. When things are going badly (like now), all you’re left with is a jerk. Pretending that Trump is sent here by God himself to save us from certain destruction isn’t a pitch that moderates and undecideds want to hear. Even conservatives with half a brain don’t want to hear it, either. I admire that Trump donates his salary. I like that he at least listens to Christian social concerns. I like that he stands up to a hostile liberal media. I think he’s a terrible leader and an inept politician. He’s done less to unite us than Obama did. Anybody that believes Trump wasn’t elected with an “it’s us against them” platform isn’t being honest with themselves. The guy is divisive, period.

My perception is that Obama's method of "management" is what got Trump elected. There is plenty I don't like about Trump as an individual. But I was so tired of highly polished speakers having no other capabilities. I have said this before but I want to restate it for illustrative purposes. There was plenty about Bobby Knight that I found abrasive and unbecoming, but I never, ever doubted his competence as a coach. I would also suggest that Mr. Trump is probably the only President in modern history who will leave the office with a net worth of somewhat less than when he started.

Would Bobby Knight have made a good President? He was about as qualified as Trump and equally experienced. But there would still be people screaming about how Bobby Knight was the best President ever. Just like the ones that say Trump (or Obama) was the best ever. What they should be saying is “my favorite President, ever.” That’s a little more accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just look at his accomplishments since he’s been in office. All the rest is fluff that don’t get caught in. Trump sits down with the good, the bad and the ugly to listen to their perspectives. He’s exposed a lot of people and media with bad intentions for this country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, my personal perception is that spending a number of years operating businesses successfully has more relevance to operating a country than being a community organizer and one term senator. One other additional item, when Mr. Trump speaks ( like his method or not) it is not difficult to know where he stands. I cannot say the same for any of his predecessors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
