What concerns me is the evidence that Biden is too old and too frail and those two things could defeat him.
His 50 years of incompetence will defeat him. What are his accomplishments besides becoming a multi-millionaire on a politician’s salary..

Yeah I guess you could say that but looking back at 2016, Hillary won the popular vote but because she won those votes in fewer states that gave Trump an advantage in states with smaller populations, then there's the winner take all rule. I dont know if changing it from states to counties would make a difference.


It would definitely make a difference in that some of the big states have anywhere from 50 to 100 counties and even one or two counties going against the grain of the state would make a slight difference, BUT when it's all done would it make a difference to who is president? Maybe not. But people would have less to complain about, possibly.

What are you talking about 50 years? 8 years is more like it. Who judged him incompetent for the other 42? He can't possibly be any more incompetent than Trump! Why don't you do a little fact checking before blabbing off?

Actually Walter, that's not entirely true. Joe Biden didn't become a multi-millionaire until after he left office in 2017 through book deals and speaking engagements.

Hmmm. And Trump became a billionaire by ripping off his contractors and banks. It was so bad that American banks refused to lend him any more money and he had to rely on Russian oligarchs to bail his ass out and now he is beholding to them. That is why when Putin says jump, he asks, "How high?" Then there is that weasel Connolly who has become a millionaire on his political earnings. How did he do that? Probably by with holding passing more than a hundred of bills the Democrats passed in the house and now sit on his desk at the behest of his puppet masters.

Trump overinflates his value, and any money he generated was only because he inherited over four hundred mil from his daddy. Biden is self made, Trump is not.

Walter is just as jealous as is Trump knowing that he (Trump) could never be the man Biden is.

It was in an interview with Brokaw, it can still be seen on C-span if you care to watch it. The Republicans certainly were in favor of ratifying it in an act of revenge in '51 and would look the hypocrites if now they wanted to do an about face but nothing Trump would do to hold on to power would surprise me.
Would eliminating the Electoral College be a bad thing in your opinion?
Nope. I think it's way past its sell-by date. I'm a DNPEer (direct national popular election)

But there's no way in hell you're gonna get 37 states to sign on to repealing the 22nd or to DNPE.

The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is an interesting alternative. I support it.

Despite the tighty whitey righties thinking it's perfectly OK for Fox, OAN, and a lot of newspapers to be 110% Trump-is-God, but the "MSM" has an obligation to be neutral?
Did I say that ? I receive CBS , NBC , MSNBC , CNN , ABC all as part of my basic cable package , Fox News and others I must subscribe to . There is the difference. Mind you I am in Canada .

Pretty funny the size of the knot the die-hard capitalists get in their panties when an American corporation does as it pleases with its money, ain't it?

They're all hot and horny for the 1% to do as they please without let or hindrance, long as it ain't George Soros, Ted Turner, or LeBron James.
You have a funny way of reading what isn’t there .

That's a pretty interesting comment coming from you pgs. If memory serves you stated back in February that you wouldn't give a crap if Trump or a man like him said to a woman you cared about that he could grab her by the meow meow. That said I think we both know which of us would throw a teenager in harm's way.

But you don't give any source you mentioned credit right? Because according to you all news sources are suspect.
