Deflection. How Trump may respond to something has no bearing on how Biden would. Especially as Biden is clearly senile. I understand why you want to dodge that, but it's not going to be allowed.
Quote:Now I have an additional question--how will he govern now that he has plan to change the structure of the executive and bend the DOJ to personal revenge? How would more of his nominees affect the Supreme Court? It is not impossible that he could end the war in Ukraine--in Putin's favor, and give Netanyahu carte blanche to destroy Gaza. Our NATO allies must be VERY nervous while our adversaries are hopeful Trump wins.
This is a very poor take. None of our adversaries tried to pull much of anything when Trump was POTUS. Iran got their top general smoked and responded with one attack. This is especially noteworthy when one considers that Putin annexed Crimea while Obama was POTUS (aren't you usually concerned about land grabs?) and then invaded the main body of Ukraine while Biden is POTUS. This directly flies in the face of your conclusion that Trump is "good" for our adversaries and bad for our allies.
Quote:His debate performance ratcheted up my concerns, the wild spewing of untruths. It matters if the C i C believes and/or disseminates conspiracy theories and lies, because those show poor judgment, bad intentions, or both.
Ahahaha, Trump's debate performance raised your concerns? You really live in an alternate reality, don't you?
Quote:Perhaps Dems need to understand that it is less about Biden than about Trump. Harris, or another prominent Dem, could at least preserve Biden's gains and prevent four years of Trump chaos.
I think anyone advocating for an outright senile POTUS is far less concerned with democracy or the nation's future then they are with partisanship. You're doing an excellent job of making that point for me here, so my thanks.
