June 5, here we are

Still waiting for that video you promised.
In this country each person is considered innocent until proven guilty. You have used conspiracies, innuendo, opinions and noise to charge Biden but you've never once showed proof. Your tactic is meant to smear not to get at the truth.

The truth takes work to get to and you have failed to show your work, you just keep tossing personal insults. Insults to me are worthless, they have lost the integrity of your argument.

[dorankj]

See, that’s why I don’t play your games! Yep, Hunter is innocent, go with that mor*n.

[Rideback]

I've watched it 2x, there's no video of him doing it only the guy talking about stuff that's all been proven false. The narrarator doesn't count as a video proof.

[dorankj]

Yes, there is. Watch it.

[Rideback]

hahaha, perfect, did you even watch? Sorry man, there's no video you've been duped again!

Trump lawsuits

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_l ... nald_Trump

Still waiting for your proof about Biden. The Rep's never came up with evidence despite having an investigation.

[PAL]

"obvious corruption far beyond what you all accused the Trump’s of (and never proved in court BTW)"
Oh, no, no, no.
We remember what Trump did. Incite an insurrection along with the LD Proud Boys and the Oathkeepers.
Stand by and stand down, back, whatever idiotic thing he said.

[Rideback]

No he didn't. Show me the video.

[dorankj]

He admitted his corruption on TV! He also committed felony gun crimes also on video. You guys pretend we can’t all see this stuff because your ‘news’ channels ignore it and the legal system hasn’t caught up in some cases. Either way, truth isn’t determined by weather or not successful litigation has made it through our double standards current legal system. I can’t blame you giving up, there is no other answer than obvious corruption far beyond what you all accused the Trump’s of (and never proved in court BTW)

[Rideback]

You are a waste of time. There's never been any evidence that Hunter Biden was a co founder of the company nor that he had any interest in it. Even the Rep committee investigating found no evidence. But you just can't deal with the topic of the thread, your desperation is showing. Good bye.

[dorankj]

Oh, and why did Hunter get millions from the mayor of Moscow’s wife? Who is the “big guy” that 10% was being held? You guys only believe corruption happens on one side!

[Rideback]

The simplest explanation was that Trump was contracted to go forward with a new hotel in Moscow and had promised Putin the best suite, knowing that Putin was the guy who had to give his blessing before it could be built. Trump denied the deal until the paperwork surfaced.

Look at every member of his cabinet, his advisors...they were in it for the big bucks. There was a reason that Trump Tower was well known as the Russian hideout for the criminals.

Indeed, that is the simplest reason for Trump's failed presidency.

[dorankj]

Oh, YOU guys are the tinfoil hat conspirerists! Might want to consider Occam’s razor.

[PAL]

Uh, Putin and Trump working together to make Biden look bad? Remember the look on Trump's face and then Putin's face after they had that meeting. Putin was grinning. Trump looked defeated.

And why would it have to be one or the other? Neither side exactly covered themselves in glory here.

Putin's FSB made a very bad call that Ukraine would not resist an invasion and decapitation. It was made worse because money designated to recruit supporters of an invasion inside Ukraine were allegedly stolen.

The United States and other western countries got it right that Russia intended to invade, but got it badly wrong about the correlation of forces and Ukraine's willingness and ability to fight back.

[dorankj]

On Putin’s part? Now you make even LESS sense!

[mister_coffee]

It's called an intelligence failure.

[dorankj]

Well that’s one thought, but in no way answers my question or explains why Putin waited until ‘tough guy’ Biden was in office to invade, didn’t Putin know Biden would show strong resolve and handle him with the overwhelming force that has worked so well to stop his aggression?

[PAL]

Trump is Putin's boy. Putin hates America. Putin likes Trump because Trump wanted to overthrow an election and destroy America. It seems that Trump supporters want the US to be like Russia.

[dorankj]

I thought Biden’s main campaign pledge was he would ‘shut down the virus, not the country’? He hasn’t handled Covid worth a crap (no tests when needed and Covid isn’t under any better control) and his weakness is why Putin attacked. You guys really need to explain why Putin wouldn’t take advantage of his ‘friend’ (Trump) and take Ukraine while he was in office but would wait until ‘tough guy’ Biden was there? That makes absolutely no sense, Biden said Putin would never try it on Biden’s watch and once again (like Obama said!) Biden was wrong. It’s one of the stupidest arguments your side makes!

[Rideback]

Not trying to disprove, only that Trump had much lower than Biden and he wasn't facing a Trump cleanup including Covid & a Putin war. Inflation is hitting people hard but it didn't show up without context and that context, much like Jim Wright's post about why gas prices are high, demonstrate that inflation relates directly to how Covid shut the economy down.

[dorankj]

Is that intended to disprove my question? 40.8% is considered good in your world with all those ‘accomplishments’ and how many people voted him into office?

Gallup:

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- As President Donald Trump prepares to leave the White House, 34% of Americans approve of the job he is doing as president, the worst evaluation of his presidency. His 41% average approval rating throughout his presidency is four points lower than for any of his predecessors in Gallup's polling era. Trump's ratings showed a record 81-percentage-point average gap between Republicans and Democrats -- 11 points wider than the prior record.

Trump Leaves on a Personal Low Note
The 34% job approval rating for Trump in Gallup's Jan. 4-15 poll is one point lower than his prior lowest single rating, registered on several occasions in late 2017. The first of these came in August 2017, as Trump was facing intense criticism over his unvarnished threats against North Korean aggression and his response to deadly violence by a white nationalist at a protest in Charlottesville, Virginia.

Between October and December of that year, his approval fell to 35% on three separate occasions as Justice Department officials charged several of Trump's 2016 campaign figures with crimes in the Russia investigation, including former Trump National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, who pleaded guilty to lying to officials in the investigation in December 2017.

Trump's approval high point was 49%, achieved on several occasions in early 2020 spanning the time between the Senate trial in his first impeachment and the initial stages of the coronavirus pandemic, when Americans were giving him high marks for his response to it.
