How much do you know about Biden?

@@Primus-ue4th I know all the crap Rs tried to throw at him but had zero evidence. I am not a dem or R I am an independent I am well versed in the issues from both sides. Donald Trump is a liar, a conman, a grifter, a criminal and a rapist. I knew this about him in the 80s. That was before he stole classified documents and incited an insurrection attempting to keep himself in power. He is a despicable human being and narcissist and should be nowhere near power.

Sure as hell doesn't change how terrifying Project 2025 is.....!!!

​@@Primus-ue4th At least it is obvious that IF Biden is as criminal as Trump he is waaaaaay smarter about it, seeing as he is not tied up in court because of stuff we all heard/saw the perpetrator commit/admit on TV. That alone is making even an ageing Biden a lot better choice than the bumbling permanent marker wielder. Add in that Biden has been investigated thoroughly without result by very motivated people who are not known for letting reality get in their way, and it is close to certain that Biden is not only a lot smarter than Trump, but also almost pathologically honest ¯\_ (ツ) _/¯

Exactly!

But but but isn’t this what just got him “elected?”

Thank you. Agreed.

I agree as well, and something else to consider -- Putting the circulating criticisms of the Secret Service (SS) and local law enforcement, and what's been gleaned thus far about the shooter and his possible motives aside for a moment: When it comes to the politicians and media who are analyzing, assigning blame and questioning why Trump still went out on stage after local law enforcement and then the SS were alerted to a suspicious individual on site -- I've not yet heard a single person acknowledge that malignant narcissist Trump probably nevertheless insisted on going out onto the stage himself: After all, this is the same guy who, when warned of suspicious persons and attendees even carrying weapons at his Jan 6 rally (some perched in trees within range and line of sight), he nevertheless expressly directed the SS to 'taking the fucking mags (magnetometers) away' and let his people in, confidentially asserting that they wouldn't hurt HIM. This is also the same guy who insisted upon been taken to the capital that day, even though he was repeatedly told it wasn't safe, and who consequently got into a confrontation with his SS detail to force them to take him to the capital during the riot; and he continued to insist angrily even after the SS returned him to the Whitehouse and the violence of the riot was already underway. Based upon my clinical experience I can confidently tell you that wasn't an act of bravery, but a selfish and self-centred display of myopic narcissism and defiance entirely consistent with his pathology, in tandem with a god-complex-like belief that MAGAs don't pose any threat to HIM. That same psychopathology also explains why as the SS was trying to surround, shield and remove him from the stage after the shooting last weekend Trump could be heard saying 'wait, wait, let me get my shoes' (as if his appearance were more important than his safety or the security of those around him), and then he repeatedly pushed agents aside so he could poke out his head, raise his arm aloft, and pump his fist to the crowd while chanting "fight, fight, fight,' potentially exposing himself and others to additional gunshots and impeding & delaying the SS's ability to get him to the car more quickly and thereby enable first responders to move in to attend to the injured (something for which the SS is being skewered). Once again, this malignant narcissist is most concerned with being the centre of attention, cultivating his appearance and persona whilst perpetuating a performative macho anger and strength [This performative stance was also clearly manifest in the MAGA GOP's premature and politically motivated finger-pointing and accusations, and their calls for Biden and other democrats to be investigated and prosecuted for the assassination attempt almost immediately, before any of the relevant facts were known.]

Yup, you know Trump was only thinking about his ratings when he stopped to put his shoes back on and fist pumped for the cameras. Trump is a sociopath.

Thank you Stacey for that. I've been worried..😮

Except that everyone is now making sympathetic statements, including Biden. Don't know what difference that will make to the vote, but it's undeniable. It's one of the few things we do have solid information about.

McCain did correct the "Obama is a Muslim" comments. Remember that Mr. McCain was an officer and a gentleman.

I do remember. Integrity: what a concept. 😢

Early 2007 John McCain versus mid 2016 Barack Obama, mid 2018 tronald dump, mid 2020 Joe Biden, 2003 George W Bush? Actually, I _am_ curious how people here would line up the last twenty or so nominees and nearly-nominees.

The fact Trump never admitted he lost the election, and has a base of cultists who think he walks on water, says all you need to know about Trump, and what his intentions are.

Oh, they SEE the hypocrisy. They hope WE don't see it...or, more importantly, their "base"' doesn't SEE.

Sadly I'm not surprised at all. This kind of thinking is far too common on both sides of the political spectrum which is why Trump was so successful in 2016.

The people at the rally thought it wasn’t real… see anyone running or trying to get out of there? Most pulled out their phones.

What convinced me was, he wouldn't have had the guts to stage something like this

@@jennifercromwell1634It would interesting if law enforcement and the Secret Service could collect all the photos and videos to see if anyone caught something of interest.

Honestly, I have found myself wondering if it's possible it was staged. Especially if I think back to the visit to Mar A Largo by the dictator from Turkeye, who's also great buddies with Putin. What did they discuss? Why did 45 make the wild statement about all hell breaking loose in about an hour. The way he made a photo op when he stood up and told his cult members to fight. I can see why folks are speculating. That's all we may ever have around the event is speculation.

We all know that’s true.

Biden pulled his ads

Vote Blue up and down the ballot. Best form political discourse ever.

It should not have happened but Trump's personality and competence does not change by this incident. He still incited J6, stole top secret documents, defrauded New York, assaulted EG Carroll, trued to extort Zelenski, guilty of election interference, siding with Putin, insulted vets, disabled people and gold star families, mismanaged the pandemic. He still threatens with destroying the governnent, taking civil rigths away, with mass deportations, with military tribunals for specific people and retribution of his political enemies. In short he is still not a symphatetic person. A wounded ear does not make for everything he does and dud.

It's interesting to me that all the people calling for Biden to step aside, have tons of money and will be way better off with Trump's tax plan than Bidens
