    And here I was thinking we will just do away with voting all together and declare Joe as King. Oh sorry not Joe, Hunter , King Hunter.

    The Democrats know they can't get away with doing that, yet. So they do the next best thing. They use the justice system to harass and bankrupt their opponents with endless law suits.

    Actually, I feel like since Obama was first elected, the republican strategy has been to deny democrats any kind of claim of progress on anything at all costs. If Obama supports it, obstruct it. This has continued. So Biden has learned there's little point in working with republicans because their purpose isn't to get things done together, but to make sure democrats can't point to any accomplishments at the end.

    Obama, and especially Biden, are not dividers. They are moderate democrats. Fox has just addled the minds of the right into thinking the democrats are the extremists.

    Please stop pretending that politely requesting documents that someone has stolen for well over a year, then sending a subpoena, and then only issuing a warrant after the subject lied about said documents is somehow "jackbooted." The FBI has never been more patient with anyone about getting them to return such documents. Trump was treated with kid gloves and even then his followers are playing like he's a sad little victim. Then again, he's been a professional victim for decades. It's no surprised he's duped even more followers into his act.

    That would be quite a trick considering that Trump has Secret Service protection.

    I'm aware of the tactics of politics and politicians - on both sides. It's fair to accuse the Republicans of being obstructionists, but it's a case of living on deNile if you think the democrats don't have stock in that market. But I think your point about Fox is interesting because it may point to where the problem is (not with Fox specifically, but the media in general). How much reporting is actually done over bipartisan achievements? For instance the latest Bill on covid Intel declassification was unanimously passed. It made the headlines probably because it's rare that you'll see that happen. My point is it's the big issues that we hear so much about and those will be used by both sides to shape the minds of the voters to cast their lot for one side or the other. So it's really not one sided, as you seem to suggest.

    Biden made a promise when he campaigned based on his alleged history of working across the aisle. It's just convenient to blame the Republicans when he can't deliver on his promise.

    Like you I have also voted third party last time (and the three times before). I also hold no ill will towards anyone for voting for Trump, or anyone candidate in any election for that matter. It's really sad the options we've had for presidents lately. Three hundred plus million and this is the best we can do? Ugh.

    and more of the list of the most corrupt and lawless president this country has ever had...

    Joe Biden

    Who changed the rules to severely restrict Congress’ access to “suspicious activity reports” in the dark of night and with no explanation…. While is dope head son, who is a threat to our national security, has a totally unheard of and unarguable the most in our history of 150… The Treasury will not release them unless the Democrats allow it..

    Who caught Covid and now can’t sniff little children.

    Who touts the Inflation Reduction Act Inflation Reduction Act …..? Which will do anything but reduce inflation. Who literally said “God knows what else’ is in Inflation Reduction Act


    Who released the 1500 terrorist, which one turned around killed 13 American military folks and 170 civilians.

    Who after CBP investigation finding 'no evidence' Border Patrol agents whipped Haitian migrants, but Biden still seeked punishment and still lied about it.

    Who can’t even get a sentence correct from a teleprompter without screwing it up..

    Who actually reads “repeat the line” when instructed by the teleprompter.

    Who can give out foreign aid to the tune of 54 billion plus, because they are being invaded, but can’t spend 5 billion on our own border to keep us from being invaded…

    Who then turned around for revenge and drone striked an innocent man and his 7 children.

    Who ordered a military evacuation, then leaving for a 3 day vacation refusing to take any calls from our allies

    Who failed to schedule the legally required program describing prospective offshore lease sales over the following five years …. Failing to follow the law and prepare a final five-year leasing plan by the deadline. That means the federal government will not offer any new offshore oil and gas lease sales until the following year

    Who thinks he is still VP as he says he can't try out an environmentally-friendly version of a Corvette. "I'm not going to be able to do it because I can't drive a vehicle while I'm vice president”

    Who abruptly stopped cooperating with the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan (SIGAR) investigating the botched withdrawal, continuing refusal to provide information and assistance requested by his office,” especially on three sensitive matters: the swift collapse of the U.S.-backed government in Afghanistan after President Biden’s disastrous withdrawal of military forces in August 2021, compliance with “laws and regulations prohibiting the transfer of funds to the Taliban,” and humanitarian aid for the Afghan people. Who takes credit away from getting vaccine approval and a developing distribution.

    Who claims the Covid pandemic is only that of the unvaccinated, when he is vaccinated and gets Covid.

    Pity the Republicans put up such a horrible candidate and their next leading man from Florida is nearly as horrible. I hope they work on this. Maybe if they came up with someone not evil it'd force the Democrats to do better.

    Evil is a little strong realistically and a lot of people have no idea where such a label could come from.

    I like that he has proven that you do not need to have marketable skills to become a millionaire; just get into politics.

    He is an inspiration to other incompetent folks

    Coming from a country that demands its leaders work for us and not the other way around - I have to say he is a refreshing taste of true representation. The contrast between him and someone like Idiot Taylor Greene who apparently claimed that a bomb had been smuggled across the border and was demanding the US send troops in Mexico

    https://www.newsnationnow.com/us-ne...-coverage/marjorie-taylor-greene-bomb-border/

    Look we know he has “Foot in mouth” syndrome but at least he does not continue to get Australia mixed up with Austria

    Sorry old mate but what America needs to do is ditch the eternal “run offs” and save money with ranked choice/ preferential voting

    https://www.aec.gov.au/learn/preferential-voting.htm

    The senate ballot over can look daunting because there is such a huge choice of parties - you can just about wrap yourself in it, but it isn’t hard to number a few boxes and it does mean that it is not just two parties. And it is cheaper.

    I like how little his ego is invested in getting onto our television screens, our twitter feed and into our psyches. He realizes that sometimes, when he needs to speak, its going to be about someone else's accomplishments and he's just fine with that. He know how to honor someone else and not steal the moment. He's just in there to get something done, something that he thinks should be done. No ego trip.

    It's hard to work across the aisle when basic principles are so far apart.
