www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/joe-s-gotta-go-concerned-democrats-feeding-fbi-info-about-president-biden-s-classified-documents-scandal-to-sabotage-his-2024-run/ar-AA17kgy3?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=U531&cvid=f2c66a2916664651b5a2380ad10330d4We may yet have a chance of selecting a candidate from a clean and fresh slate of primary candidates. It is obvious to me that between now and 2024 the democrats are going to find some subverted way to disqualify Trump from running. It would be a great thing for the country if Biden were to also be eliminated. I think that the dems are beginning to realize that Biden is not capable of running the country and his cognitive abilities are legitimately questionable, and will only decline more if the is elected for another term. . Trump won because the dems ran crooked and corrupt Hillary Clinton. Biden won because the dems needed someone with name recognition in order to beat Trump, period. It is time for all NEW blood. Maybe someone that can actually focus on issues instead of focusing on vengeance and revenge. Someone who is qualified and not just selected to be the first woman, native American, lesbian, transgendered, Hispanic, or to fit in some other notch irrelevant to their actual ability to do the job..

All the Dem candidates had "name recognition". Biden won because he was a better man & a better candidate, period. The majority were fed up with Trump's nonsense, bullying, corruption, incompetence & lies. Hillary lost partly because Comey as head of the F.B.I. lambasted her right before the election but she still won the popular vote. And I didn't vote for her or that idiot Trump.
I don't see how Dems can disqualify Trump even though he should be because he's a traitor & he tried to destrpy Democracy in this Country because he wasen't man enough to admit that he lost. Trump belongs in prison alongside the rabble who rioted for him on J6. Him, Guiliani, Ron Johnson & a few others who were the ringleaders & who parroted the biggest lie & scam job ever perpetrated on the American people. I'll believe that lie when the grifters who keep puking out "stolen election" actually show some proof after two years.

As little as I would like the idea, at least Clinton would be more qualified to hold the office than Kamala Harris. Harris isn't even effective as VICE president.
Some people get so angry when I express my opinion of Joe Biden and my concerns with his cognitive thought process. However sad it may be I believe that he is not in charge or capable of being in charge. The poor man wanders about in a muddled state half the time. Two of the most important factors in the cognitive thought process are perception and memory. The president sadly struggles with both.
We are all entitled to an opinion, and mine is that I don't believe Biden is qualified to run the country. Secondly, I don't believe that he IS running the country, and I am not alone. Many believe as I do, that one or all three of the following people is pulling the strings. Barrack Obama, Ron Klain, or Susan Rice. THAT is just MY personal assessment of the situation. It seems to me that someone is writing the script, putting it on a teleprompter, marching the president out in front of a microphone and HOPING that he sticks to the script with no wandering off on untrue personal stories, or gaffs.
At least if Hillary were to be elected I would feel that our country's security was in the hands of someone possessing all their faculties. I would certainly hate her agenda I am sure, but at least she is capable of making her own decisions.
Whenever any adverse opinion about the present administration is expressed it is answered with a hate for Trump and runs to January 6th on Capitol Hill. Thankfully I don't know ANYONE who even TRIES to justify the assault and riot. The Proud Boys, QAnon, and other radical splinter groups took part in the "insurrection." The majority of those that marched to the capital remained outside the barriers and continued to demonstrate in a legal manner for the most part, as is their constitutional right.
As for Trump himself? At this point I could give a rats ass about Donald Trump and his future. For him to be elected again would take a miracle, and would only result in the perpetuation of the hateful division within our government and the resulting stalemate in congress. If he were a true and loyal Republican, he would realize that it would be in the best interest of the party for him to shut up, step aside, go away and let the party move on.

They better act fast cause I went into Walmart today cause I needed a package of those various colored little peppers and the price was always $2.98 today it is $3.19. Go figure. Price Chopper wanted $4.99 a package. So no peppers did I buy. That is expensive even with SNAP.

Price Chopper wanted $4.99 a package. So no peppers did I buy. That is expensive even with SNAP. We don't use the little multi-colored peppers, but the "stop light peppers" (one green, one yellow, and one red) are $6 here and have been for quite some time now. That is why we have always grown our own. Last summer we bought peppers in half bushel boxes to freeze and can. This summer we will probably do the same. I really have no intention of growing a garden this year. |

I do think it is time to move on from people who are my age or older. I can feel the decline in myself and see it echoed in Trump, Biden and much of our political leadership. It worries me. The memory lapses are obvious. Judgement lapses are much more subtle. I force myself to think things through on what should be simple decisions just to make sure I haven't forgotten something basic.

I find the little short term memory lapses quite disconcerting at times. Doesn't happen often but occasionally I will forget what I was going to say or lose my train of thought, only to have it come to me a few seconds or minutes later. GW Bush and Bill Clinton were at an optimum age to fill the office in my estimation. They are only a year older than I am. I wonder if they too are beginning to experience the occasional brain fart?  |

Biden at his worst has more brains in his pinkie finger then Trump has now or ever had. Trump is a factor because he's liable to get the nomination. People thought he was done after the Access Hollywood tape came out showing he's a sexual predator & a degenerate but he still won. He can still win even after his coup attempt & the fact that he's a traitor because millions of voter's still believe his lies & some in GOP leadership still back him.
Trump belongs in prison not on the campaign trail & certainly not in the W.H.

I guess people just don't make their political choices based on Access Hollywood anymore. We were discussing our concern for Joe Bidens declining mental acuity which is obvious to most, however sad that may be. How is Donald Trump's IQ relative to the subject at hand?

You omit the possibility that they may be tour charters from Proxima Centauri.

There are so many possibilities. One rather disturbing possibility would be that they can carry biologic materials and release them to drift quietly down on us. Hopefully that can be discounted quickly when they are able to evaluate the debris from one or more of them.

I don't know maybe because you mentioned Trump in your first post & he's an announced candidate who lost his mind a long time ago. His latest rant is about Rihanna. Does that sound like someone who has all his marbles? |
