I've said about all there is to say about Trump; namely, that he's a sociopath and anyone who defends him is a wanna-be sociopath. It's a very depressing POV to be honest but there's simply no way to rationally defend that monster.
ETA: I'm happy that you're not one of them.
It's One thing to defend a guy like Biden for possibly experiencing the beginnings of Dementia and his occasional flubs and disorientation as some do, it's quite another to defend/support a racist, homophobic, misogynistic piece of shit like Trump as OneJay and CBB do.If I whisper my wicked marching orders into the ether with no regard to where or how they may bear fruit, I am blameless should a broken spirit carry those orders out upon the innocent, for it was not my hand that took the action merely my lips which let slip their darkest wish. ~Daniel Devereaux 2011

Originally posted by fuhrdog View PostThe only thing anybody brings up about Biden is his ability on the speaking stage/declining mentally and I just meant he doesn't sound any worse than Trump and at least Biden is intelligent...not something you can say about Trump. I'm not a big fan of either but the choices are what they are at this point and my vote will be whatever gets the current trash out of office.

Originally posted by nots View PostCalling Biden intelligent is a bit of a stretch for me. How do you reconcile his intelligence with calling Trump ‘xenophobic’ for halting visitors from Chinaon Jan 31? To me, it appears Trump got that one right (albeit late) and Biden didn’t.

Originally posted by DMT View PostPretty big miss? Dick Cheney created an office to deliberately produce lies about WMDs to convince people to vote for the war. So to act now like Biden was the decision-maker is just BS and you know it. As is talking about Biden's response to COVID19 when his opponent is going to be directly responsible for tens if not hundreds of thousands of deaths.
And speaking of Iraq—- how come Obama and Sanders (among others) got that vote right and Biden didn’t?

Originally posted by nots View PostBut aside your hatred for Trump and let’s focus on Biden. On Feb 1, when Biden criticized Trump for halting arrivals from China, was that the right call or the wrong call? If Biden had allowed arrivals to continue, would more people have died or less? Just give an honest answer.

My point is, comparing Biden's wrong decisions to Trump's is not even a remotely close competition. That is the choice is voters will be given in November. Biden is meh, Trump is a monster.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing.

Originally posted by DMT View PostClearly it was the wrong call on both decisions. I'm not defending his vote, nor did I ever defend Clinton's. But let's also acknowledge that the vote would've passed regardless of how either of them voted. So the ultimate responsibility lies not with either but with the war criminals Cheney, Rumsfeld, and Bush.
