how was Trump/Pence a disaster?</blockquote>
I answered your question.

oof, thats some serious TDS there.</blockquote>
Absolutely! Pretending that everything I said didn't 100% answer your question and isn't 100% accurate is some serious TDS on your part.
I'm so glad we agree :-)
Trump ignored Covid and tried to act like the US didn't need to do anything. When Covid 100% blew up, he tried to act like anyone concerned was crazy. He made up stats. He lied about what was going on. He suggested we tried to find a way to inject bleach into our bodies. He did everything he could except follow the pandemic playbooks that past administrations had followed successfully. Had there been a pandemic like Covid in the US prior? Nope. Not since the Spanish Flu.
Denying Covid and refusing to do anything about it for most of his presidency was a huge factor on why the economy was so disastrous at the beginning of the Biden Administration. Biden has done nothing accept improve the economy, and anyone who says otherwise desperately needs to take Economics 101.
Trump raised taxes on the poor and middle class. He lowered taxes on the wealthy. He made all sorts of deals to help him and his buddies get richer.
The immigration bill that was going to be passed by both the House and the Senate and was a compromise that almost everyone in Congress was happy with, was killed because Trump made phone calls. And why did he do this? Because he wasn't interested in a solution, he wanted immigration to be a problem so it could be a campaign issue.
Trump is not interested in solving problems or helping people. He just wants power.
If you're too dumb to realize this, I can't help you.
Nothing says TDS like JoWilli posting multiple times a day in an effort to get non Trump fans angry.
Nothing says TDS like JoWilli spending hours trying to find old (often times more than a year old) comments to respond to just to rile things up.
Seriously, you are the one with TDS.
Obviously statistics have proven that the opposite has been true. Why would anyone think that Harris/Watz wasn't the best decision for this country? No need to hate Trump, but it would be wise to acknowledge that Trump/Pence was a disaster and that there is every factual reason to believe that Trump/Vance would be, as well.
It usually does take two or three tries to pass the bar. That exam is no joke.
It varies by state.
In my state, each party has a ballot. So when I walk in, they ask me which party’s ballot I want. No one will know who I vote for, but they will know which ballot I chose. That part is recorded, and it is public information. Some people who work for the state don’t want that information on record, because they fear it will affect their jobs.
I can choose an issue ballot, which means that I don’t vote for any candidates, I only vote for issues (Usually issues related to property taxes, or schools. Sometimes there are issues related to a new law or amendment.)
The primary system didn’t begin until the 1950s, and it didn’t really begin until the 1960s. Prior to that, each party simply chose their nominee.
I realize that being chosen as the VP candidate in the last election by no means guarantees her anything. I was simply saying that in many peoples minds, the fact that she was chosen at the VP candidate means that she was given an unofficial no that she would make a really good president the next time around.
I was in high school when Dan Quayle was VP, so I do remember him quite well. He was never anything more than a joke, so he kind of an example of the exception to the rule.
I do not believe I use the word, “feelings” even one time.
I was explaining why it didn’t bother me. You can throw as many facts and incorrect facts at me as you want. It’s not gonna change the fact that it didn’t bother me that she is the nominee.
I’m perfectly within my rights, not to be outraged.
Wow! You put a “S” in front of her name. How childish and petty.
Kamala graduated from law school.
Kamala knows the difference between Springfield and Akron.
Kamala knows that her constituents are too smart to fall for ignorant comments like, “Hannibal Lecter … what a guy.”
I really was joking (lol). He is an absolute moron, and it horrifies me that anyone takes him seriously.
But he’s the greatest president in the history of the United States, in the world, in the universe!
And he’s smarter than any other President in history, than any other person in the US, in the world, in the universe!
First of all, Iowa and New Hampshire usually determine who the nominee is. The other 48 states have virtually no say.
Second, the moment she was picked as Biden‘s VP, there was a pretty decent chance that she was going to be the next Democratic nominee.
Third, of course, there will be some candidates I prefer over others, but in the last 20 years, I don’t remember seeing a Democratic candidate that honestly made me say, “Nope!” Plenty of Republicans, but I don’t remember Democrat.
I think you’re living in an ideal world where you’re going to find the ”Perfect” Candidate. That person doesn’t exist, so I don’t really get what you’re bitching about.
In one of the novelizations, Ben says that Owen is his brother.
I can still like her and support her as a candidate, whether I had the opportunity to vote for her in a primary or not.
By the time my state’s primary is held, there’s always only one candy left. I still votes for the person I want, but that’s simply my reality every four years.
Not everyone. You have to have the time traveling gene. Jamie can’t travel.

Glad we agree on something.
Well, I can't quite tell whether you are just too dumb to realize why I can't take you seriously or if you are hoping I'm too dumb to realize you can't be taken seriously.
Either way, talking to you is simply a complete waste of time.
Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm actually Gen X.
No, soap and paper towels is not silly. Yes, someone has to pay for it, and that somebody is all of us.
What's actually silly is that you are focused on the cost and on personal responsibility, and you're patting yourself on the back for always being prepared and never needing help and judging those that do. But honestly, most people do not just take and take. They only take when they really need to. There are exceptions, for sure, but they really are the exceptions.
Have you ever run into a restroom and taken some toilet paper because you have a cold and forgot to bring tissues? Not a whole role, but a foot or two? Have you ever stayed in a hotel and taken an extra apple or yogurt after eating your breakfast?
I know people who take every shampoo bottle and every role of toilet paper with them when the check out of a hotel room. To me, that's petty. So I do know that this type of thing happens. But it's rare. Most people only take what they need.
What we're really talking about here, though, is junior high and high school girls who don't have regular cycles yet and get surprised. Or middle age women who have a very sudden, very heavy period out of the blue (and might need to change her clothes). Or someone who is just having a bad day and needs a dang tampon.
You are obviously very prideful and lack humility. There will come a day when you find yourself in need and hopefully humbled.
One thing I've tried to teach my kids after they screw up huge and feel really, really embarrassed and ashamed is to keep that in mind when one of their friends screws up. I teach them compassion.
Compassion and personal responsibility are not mutually exclusive.
You do realize you are contradicting yourself, right? First you say that I’m dumb enough to believe anything anyone tells me, then you criticize me because I question what you say and ask for proof.
The reality is, you think the mainstream media is bias because Trump told you it was. You believe pets are being eaten because Trump told you they were. Nothing else matters. If Trump says it, it must be true.
That’s just a tad blt hypocritical, don’t you think?
No, you’re full of hooey. If anything you claimed was true you’d be able to prove it, if for no other reason than to save face.
You won’t, which suggests you can’t.
