Members Maxim Posted August 1, 2024 Members Share Posted August 1, 2024 I see Trump has done what I was waiting for him to do... he has started to show his truest colors and the mask slipped so hard, now everyone is reminded of the horror story he is offering the world. He is a true testament that in the end... evil bites it's own head. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted August 1, 2024 Members Share Posted August 1, 2024 I agree with this. Kamala was within 2 points of Trump in PA in a GOP internal poll in the first days of the switch, and Politico is trying to give them the sunny side of life. And now, in news to no one: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted August 2, 2024 Members Share Posted August 2, 2024 (edited) I'll admit the shot of Joe and Kamala approaching the plane on the tarmac in the night (in the previous post) gave me chills. The past, present and future all in one shot. Edited August 2, 2024 by Vee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted August 2, 2024 Members Share Posted August 2, 2024 The article (in spite of not being all that well written) was poignant in seeing how much Biden was trying to help other people even as he was being torn apart by many in his party and facing the end of his career. This is such a cynical country, but Biden has never been guilty of the same. So many responses to this have just been focusing on Republicans and Trump saying that this somehow "proves" Putin is afraid of Trump or trying to gin up outrage over an out of context clip over Kamala Harris chiding people for saying Merry Christmas. Biden knew he'd get nothing in return for his actions, but he did it anyway because it was the right thing to do. In a country full of so many people who worship Trump and would let everyone else burn, I should appreciate that while I can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted August 2, 2024 Members Share Posted August 2, 2024 (edited) Exactly. Here we all were, kvetching about how Joe Biden was too old and too feeble to keep going. Meanwhile, Grandpa was working BTS, orchestrating the biggest and most important prisoner swap since the Cold War. If that's what you call feeble...! We oughta be ashamed of ourselves for giving him no choice but to drop out of the race. Edited August 2, 2024 by Khan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted August 2, 2024 Members Share Posted August 2, 2024 I like President Biden’s response to some journalist’s comments that TFG claimed he could have rescued the hostages without conceding anything. Biden: “Then he should have done it when he was president!” We know that many of the media, well-connected and wealthy people who have influence in the political realm are not embarrassed by their machinations over the last several months (years likely) but they really should be. Many in the media were sour because they couldn’t get gossip and intrigue the way they did with TFG, so they were bitter and reported every conceivable hint of vulnerability in the White House, while reporting on TFG as if he were some ‘80s action figure. You don’t need an action figure or action hero to be an effective Commander in Chief or president. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted August 2, 2024 Members Share Posted August 2, 2024 (edited) I loved that moment, too. Just as I loved Biden "joking" with the reporter that they're stuck with him 'til November. (He wasn't kiddin', folks!). After all that he's been subjected to, he might as well read people for filth on his way out!
