It is hard in politics to support American principles and values. There is no money in it. Money is made by becoming part of the political establishment. They have inherited the goose that laid the golden eggs. They have killed the goose and now they are taking the eggs for themselves until they are gone.henry quirk wrote: ↑Sat Sep 05, 2020 1:06 amOh my gosh!

Love this one, in particular...
Given what I have experienced in the administration, I have to support Joe Biden for president and even though I am not a Democrat, even though I disagree on key issues, I'm confident that Joe Biden will protect the country and I'm confident that he won't make the same mistakes as this President.
A repub (fundamentally, a social & fiscal conservative) is gonna vote for a man who'll raise taxes, expand the size and power of gov, who supports the green new deal, who is backed by commies, er socialists like Saunders and Cortez. Worst, this person will vote for Smokin' Joe knowin' Joe, with his cognitive dysfunction, won't actually be in charge and probably won't even serve out one full term (The blowjob queen has new furniture for the Oval on order).
Some republican...
Lace, pony up a legit, formal, psych eval.
This flailin' about is so, you know, freshmen year.
Shit, or get off the pot.
The beautiful people and silicon value have united to promote the power of the establishment and now the working people have been taken advantage of. Sites like google, twitter, and facebook are controlled to promote the establishment. So it is not surprisng to read rinos opposing Trump. There is too much money in supporting the establishment.The Republicans are now the working-class party while the Democrats are the party of the political establishment.
Trump is the outsider's outsider. He has enough money so cannot be bought and has the annoying habit of keeping his promises. He gives hope to the working class who are becoming increasingly frustrated by the rich beautiful people. Nancy Pelosi was just caught getting her hair done while the shop is closed to the working class. The beautiful people of the establisment are now "entitled." Nancy pelosi is one of the beautiful people and like Marie Antoinette, cannot be put in the same class as the little people so she gets her hair done and the working class women get bupkis.
The upcoming election pits those siding with the beautiful people of the establishment against the working class people the ideals and principles of America support. Trump supports the working class so I support Trump.
