I do not think anyone who has ever actually read moneypenny20s posts could conclude that she is a conservative.

For someone who CLAIMS to be British, why are you so all-fired focused on denigrating our election candidates? In your own supposed country, there is a guy with a funny haircut who could absorb your time, but curiously, you seem to be determined to focus on OUR elections.

No need for you to state that you are not American - it's quite apparent (I am guessing either Moscow or Novosibirsk). And yes, you most certainly use "ploys" - the same ones that worked so well for your team in the last election - denigrate the Democratic candidate so as to try to discourage voting.

I will say this for you, you are not odd at all, just a little "tight", and transparently focused on your mission.

1. Moneypenny20 lives on the Gold Coast in Australia.

2. Again, that poster is no conservative. Her views can at times be a bit extreme to the left but to claim she is part of some plot or a "mission" against Joe Biden is crazy.

3. It is not exactly news that the two main candidates are uninspiring. Joe Biden set up a TV studio in his basement and isn't even leaving his house these days.

4. I highly doubt moneypenny20 cares what voter turnout in the US election is.

Is correct.

NainRouge. You are way off the mark in this for MoneyPenny20.

FWIW there will be people not in the US who are looking towards this coming USA election & hoping for an ousting . I am. The reason for that is the negative global and international impact this current admin has overall had on my one planet. I deplore this.

There are concerns for the oppositional front runner. That this person, for several reasons, should or would be a far stronger contender all round but it is seemingly not quite the case . However it is what is currently offered. One hopes that whoever is pulled in as the surrounding team ; that this does enough to prise the USA from the current divisive, dictatorial , anarchic state it now finds itself in. Looking in from outside , it is a slow motion moving train wreak. The hope with the opposition is that they will work as a team for the national good, as well as for the world as a whole. What we are seeing in action now is detrimental for all.

Moneypenny has been around on this forum since 2004, and is well known and respected by many. You've been a member since ... last year. I suggest you listen to those around who are telling you that you are way off the mark, and move on.

They did their best but they didn't, they couldn't anticipate conditions existing today.
The so called founding fathers of the US constitution sat around a table and thrashed out what could go wrong.
It was a different age. An age when every man had his musket, had used it to drive out the hated british and would shoot anyone trying to bring down the new federation and exploit his fellow man... as long as they were white and christian.
But times have changed. Muskets have been locked away, their flints removed and rendered impotent to be replaced by tweets.
They did their best but they got it wrong and that secret place, that place they glimpsed only in their darkest nightmares, that place they hoped would remain forever bolstered, that place without hope, well that cage has burst asunder and the creature, the beast chained behind the steel door, well it's escaped.... and...
It's name is Trump and the number of the beast is the number of those of the Senate that set it free.
Will it stay free? We'll get to know as 2020 dies... along with democracy if it wins.

The constitution relies on a belief that the person elected as president is not a despot/crime boss etc. And aside from perhaps Andrew Johnson, that has been the case for over 200 years. There are good arguments that it's not the case today.

Another spot-on Lincoln Project video... "It’s not a campaign, it’s a criminal enterprise."

My (former Trump supporting) wife said to me when I showed her that a couple of days ago said ‘is that really true? They’re all felons? Well we don’t need them in there do we?’

i was like: Ya think?!?

The thing with the people behind the Lincoln project is that they understand how to press Republican fear buttons. These ads could have been put out by the RNC (in style anyway) They kno how to talk to ‘their people’

It's not strictly true though is it as they've all been removed from the posts they held. I know when it comes to an election honesty is worthless but if something can be debunked by a quick Google it just makes Trump look better.

He appointed them. If a team is a reflection of a manager then he’s a failure that should be ejected from office at the first opportunity.

There's no argument from me. Most of them, if not all, are felons because of Trump so he should obviously go but I just don't see that convincing Trump supporters. I always found it funny when people told me Trump has his own money so wouldn't take backhanders from people and be corrupt when it was always clear to me that Trump was the kind of person that would've been giving the backhanders in the first place so all he did was cut out the middle man.

When did I 'CLAIM' to be British? I mean I am, I'm English but I don't ever remember shouting about it. I don't know which guy with the funny haircut you're talking about, sorry.

As they'd say in New York - making such preposterous assertions about Moneypenny20 really takes chutzpah
But his "Red Dwarf" avatar reveals he's here to foment dissent.
According to Wikipedia "Each Spring, Detroit holds a costumed community parade called the Marche du Nain Rouge[5] in which the creature is traditionally chased out of the city. At the conclusion of the parade, an effigy of the Nain Rouge is destroyed, thus "banishing the evil spirit from the city for another year His Nain Rouge namesake is driven from the city of Detroit every year"

What will Super Mod Russian Spymistress Moneyruble20 do about upstart member Nain Rouge? :ban:.... stay tuned :lol:
