Re: 2020 Election
 

Do you live in a cave? One look at any newspaper or TV news report on any day of the week would demonstrate conclusively that it is not ignored. It is roundly reported and commented on by virtually everyone.

Nonsense? You mean Democrats don't lie, Giantaxe? Really? The reason Trump gets away with it is because the lying culture in politics is so pervasive that it's seen as no news here. Guess which political parties played a fundamental role in setting that culture, Giantaxe? Really, just the Republicans? Only radical true believers think "players on their team" have halos and wings growing out their backs the way the Usual Suspects do.

While we are at it - do you find Tara Reade's allegations against Joe Biden to be credible, and do you call for an investigation? If not, why not? Is it because she accused a Democrat in an election year?

Re: 2020 Election
 

In the 30+ years I've lived in the US, no president or presidential candidate of either party has lied to anything remotely like the degree that Trump does. So, yeah, the "both sides do it", although nominally true, is nonsense.

I have no idea whether her allegations are true. Just as with Trump, I'd certainly find the allegations more compelling if there was a pattern of multiple women accusing him of sexual assault. I don't have an opinion on whether there should be an investigation. Of course, I didn't "call for an investigation" of the allegations against Trump in '16 either.

It's not for your benefit, you're supposed to go out and spend it in order to help prop up the capitalist house of cards.

I thought I heard him make a specific commitment that he would only be a 4 year (1 term) president.

Re: 2020 Election
 

There was some speculation that he tried to wink-and-nod telegraph that to some aides, and then some media outlets took that as a concrete report and reported it as such. But he and his campaign issued a full denial:

My sister voted for Trump in the last election, today she posted this.

Why did I ever vote for this moron, I am sorry to everyone.

She is radical religious republican and I was shocked she is supporting Biden, like shocked.

That's one who's come over from the dark side :thumbsup:

Re: 2020 Election
 

All I can say is hell must have frozen over.

Interesting though how we both turned out, she is general far right, and I am left, US democrats don't really even align with my stance but the closest option, we grew up in the same house, same parents but turned out so differently.

Re: 2020 Election
 

In my book you turned out so much better than your sister :thumbup:

I'm not a big spender at the best of times. That's why I don't need hand outs. I'd rather pass it onto somebody that's struggling to just get by.

Re: 2020 Election
 

Pass it on then. Make someone's or multiple someone's day.

Re: 2020 Election
 

Yeah. I don't understand what the problem here is. Donate it to charity if he doesn't want it.

Re: 2020 Election
 

We don't strictly speaking 'need' the $2400 that we got. We are both 'essential' and are still working and making our bills just fine, but I'm not giving it away - I'm going to put it on the mortgage. That's 2 payments less we'll have to make :nod:

I suppose threes an argument to invest it and let it make more money long term, but I'd rather pay down our personal debt.

We need to find the oranges, the oranges, the oranges of those figures.

Re: 2020 Election
 

Why not do so then ?
