Guy Chamberlin Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 The awfulness of Trump really shouldn't be used to overshadow the equally vindictive policies of Bush/Cheney, which also included a needless war that killed hundreds of thousands. Most of these same Republicans just now discovering their honor were fine with 30 years of GOP policies that would likely have been pursued by President Scott Walker, Marco Rubio, or Jeb Bush. Steve Schmidt literally drafted some of this s#!t. Glad these Lincoln Project folk draw the line at Trump, but remain curious what he's done that they'd rescind. 1 Link to comment

This is all true, and those guys are the same guys we hated in 2006, but at this point I'd have gladly taken another four year of Bush/Cheney from 2016-2020 instead of Trump. All we can hope for, with our electoral system, are baby steps. Let's get less bad than Trump this cycle. From there let's get less bad than Biden & the Democrat establishment. Hopefully from that, we better still. Link to comment

Believe it or not, but there are many of us that would love to vote for actual conservatives; people who truly believe in budget control, efficient government, and actually putting some effort into helping the American family unit. Trump is not that guy. Plus, he's an asshat that frustrates me everyday because he "is my President". He's also your President. We both deserve better. I can't, in all honesty, see how a rational adult looks at Donald Trump and says, "Man! That guy sure know how to run a country!" Ballooning debt Financial safeguards depleted Pandemic out of control Riots in the street Twitter meltdowns Making America's farmers resort to socialism Fighting against loving families that would love to adopt (we kind of need these people if we want "would be" abortions to become adoptions) If he was HALF the leader he claims to be, don't you think he would be able to sell his vision a little better? He's nothing more than the new boss that comes in, fires everyone to make a statement, and then wonders why the custodian can't run the register. well your entire list applies to Obama Biden as well. assuming you will be voting for Biden this time around I can say your criteria change as soon as you find a new statue to topple. 8 hours ago, teachercd said: Anyone else shocked that the Lincoln Project needs that much money to operate? The articles say they're using 90% of the budget for administrative expenses. Maybe they have a future in running a division 1 college athletic department. 1 2 Link to comment

TGHusker Posted July 19, 2020 Author Share Posted July 19, 2020 The video is worth the watch. again he is setting up the election as rigged - this time based on mail in ballots. His trump bots/cult members will believe this and I predict there will be violence from the right if Trump blames the loss on mail in ballots. That is why trump has got to be soundly defeated. Humiliated. Or in the famous line from Remember the Titans "Leave NO Doubt" https://www.axios.com/trump-election-rigged-da605666-7a05-4633-b216-d7adcfefa97e.html Quote President Trump refused to say on "Fox News Sunday" whether he would accept the results of November's election if he loses to Joe Biden, telling host Chris Wallace: "I have to see. I'm not just going to say yes. I'm not going to say no." Why it matters: Trump gave a similar answer in 2016 when he was running against Hillary Clinton, prompting concerns there might not be a peaceful transition to power. At that time, however, Trump was not the incumbent. Trump said his willingness to concede will depend on mail-in voting, which he said he thinks is going to "rig the election" — a claim he has previously made without factual evidence. What he's saying: "I'm not a good loser. I don't like to lose. I don't lose too often. ... Look, Hillary Clinton asked me the same thing. ... You know what, she's the one who never accepted the loss." Link to comment
