2020 Presidential Election: let the jockeying commence

Any slight misstatement or perceived misstatement by Trump is news for a week. MSM just makes excuse for or does not challenge the lame excuses given by the Hiden campaign loons.

But remember, Trump says idiotic things all the time.
 
I'm sure they do all their taxes themselves and don't hire CPAs to find ways to lessen their tax burdens. But who care about them when it's all about Trump.

Let's see every business person and politician's tax records. I'm sure they are squeaky clean.

And since it's NYT I already don't believe the characterization without even reading it. Just like MSNBC describes the Woodward book as showing Trump's "rage" etc.

Yawn.
 
I like O'Keefe. But when have his exposes led to something big? Maybe they have. But he usually over sells things imo.
 
Is it Amazon or GE that hasn't paid income taxes for the last few years? I bet the CEOs didn't either.

For me, if you avoid paying taxes, you are a hero.
 
Bezos is an idiot for embracing global alarmism and opposing fossil fuel use.

But he is a great American for finding a way around government seizure of their capital.

Maybe this is above my brain power or whatnot. But who gives 2 craps about the Presidents taxes?!?!? If Trump did get his tax bills cut to near nothing GOOD FOR HIM!!! You can't become President without being a little shady. Hell look at the Clintons.....This is another one of the stories in the media that hurts my head for its stupidity.

But I guess its a good time (for the liberals) to bring out a false story for the debate on Tuesday to see how Trump handles it.

Absent evidence that he broke the law, I never cared about the tax returns. I always thought he should have released them but never considered doing so to be any kind of requirement.

Just for a quick little tangent on the upcoming Presidential election - Maybe we should pay some attention to the Party platforms instead of focusing solely on the personalities of the candidates. For example, here's the Democratic Party platform from their website - Party Platform - Democrats. It's a rather lengthy document, so it will take a while to read through it. Just to save some time, here are the key highlights (or, stated correctly, the "lowlights"):

*Universal healthcare and Medicaid for all Americans and illegal aliens.
*$15 minimum wage
*Immediate citizenship for illegals
*Free college tuition
*Forgiveness of student loans
*Eliminate border walls and Immigration Enforcement
*Make Washington D.C. the 51st State
*Abortion for all women & girls
*$70 trillion Green New Deal, where the USA would be net-zero greenhouse gas by 2050. But CLOSE all coal & natural gas power plants by 2035. By 2030 all new construction in the USA must be net-zero greenhouses.
*Create a U.S. Agency for Global Media to ensure that only accurate information is reported in the news or on the internet.
*Rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement.
*Create a new federal agency of 100,000 people to trace every American.
*Immediately restore voting rights for convicted felons.
*Provide funding to facilitate vote-from-home and mail-in-voting.
*Create a new Federal Credit Bureau (to replace Equafax, et al), and require banks to use this new credit reporting service that will be set up to assist low-income people in buying houses and cars.
*Make gun manufacturers responsible and liable for how their guns are used. (Destroy gun manufacturing)
*Declare and treat drug use as a mental illness instead of an illegal activity.
*Declare the support for the Rights of BLM, Multi-gender, and preferential treatment for gays wanting to immigrate to America.
*And, by the way, some pretty substantial tax increases to help pay for all this. But that's okay - they just want everyone to pay his "fair share."

If someone is voting for Biden as a means of voting against Trump, he should carefully study the Democratic platform to understand what he's really voting for with his "protest" vote.
 
@HornHuskerDad I have told people this. Even at the most local level, anyone who votes for a democrat is voting for this platform and the insanity that is the democrat party.

We had a Congressman in IL, a (D), who is actually pro life. Doesn't matter. Anyone who voted him in based on that is still a loser with flawed mentality. Dan Lipinski, as an individual congressman, could do nothing against the democrat machine.
 
They will say (Ds) it does not matter because no one does those things anyway. Some truth there but jeez, what a platform.
 
Thank you HHD
Kinda eye opening
I would hope an intelligent person who wants to vote agsunst the status quo reads your post and understands what would be the result of allowing that platform
 
If the unthinkable happens and Biden is elected, our only hope to save the country is that the GOP keeps control of the Senate - a GOP-controlled Senate would at least put the brakes on the headlong dash into socialism that the Democrats want.
 
Kudos to Biden for having the balls to do a debate (against the advice of some of the Dem Party entourage). I'm recording it Tuesday night. This should be very entertaining.

I'll believe it when I see it. Long time for him to catch Covid or something between now and then.

*$15 minimum wage
Don't care. It's strange to me that anyone can find decent workers at less than $15/hr[/COLOR]
*Immediate citizenship for illegals
Oppose
*Free college tuition
Oppose. Instead bring back heavily subsidized public colleges and universities so it doesn't cost much to go to college (but it's not free).
*Forgiveness of student loans
Oppose. Instead, cut the interest down to near zero or allow borrowers to convert to interest only for a while until they're on their feet.
*Eliminate border walls and Immigration Enforcement
An idiotic idea.
*Make Washington D.C. the 51st State
Oppose. D.C. is supposed to be just that, a federal district, with government buildings and offices--not a place where 1/2 million or more people live. Carve out all the non government building areas and cede them to Maryland.
*Abortion for all women & girls
Oppose.
*$70 trillion Green New Deal, where the USA would be net-zero greenhouse gas by 2050. But CLOSE all coal & natural gas power plants by 2035. By 2030 all new construction in the USA must be net-zero greenhouses.
Oppose.
*Create a U.S. Agency for Global Media to ensure that only accurate information is reported in the news or on the internet.
Oppose
*Rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement.
Oppose
*Create a new federal agency of 100,000 people to trace every American.
Oppose
*Immediately restore voting rights for convicted felons.
Mixed feelings. Either they did, or they didn't, pay their debt to society... If they did, then their full civil rights should be restored. Therefore, generally Support.
*Provide funding to facilitate vote-from-home and mail-in-voting.
Don't care
*Create a new Federal Credit Bureau (to replace Equafax, et al), and require banks to use this new credit reporting service that will be set up to assist low-income people in buying houses and cars.
Don't care
*Make gun manufacturers responsible and liable for how their guns are used. (Destroy gun manufacturing)
Oppose
*Declare and treat drug use as a mental illness instead of an illegal activity.
Support. Addicts need help, not your judgment. They're sick, help them. The dealers and smugglers who profit off the misery of addicts are the ones who should be arrested.
*Declare the support for the Rights of BLM, Multi-gender, and preferential treatment for gays wanting to immigrate to America.
Oppose
*And, by the way, some pretty substantial tax increases to help pay for all this. But that's okay - they just want everyone to pay his "fair share."

Watch the debates be 90 minutes attacking Trump on covid, as if the virus was Trump’s fault or Americans are too obese and too low on Vitamin D (the two highest factors in covid mortality).

So lose weight and drink a lot of milk to help one's chances, huh? Maybe get in the sunlight a lot to boost the effects of the Vitamin D you take in. (not being facetious here). If you have any credible links about the Vitamin D, that would be helpful. I had not heard that yet. Thx.
