Regarding Trump, has he ever exhibited the ability to remain silent this long? Is he actually following rational advice, or has he had a medical incident?
It's bizarre that we all think that Trump would be more coherent after a major medical incident! πŸ˜†

I wish it were 1984 again. Life was much simpler back then. πŸ™‚β€β†”οΈ

No political correctness, no social media, everything was regional and not everything was known to everyone immediately beyond what the "news" curated for your consumption.
Think of the past in terms like what you suggest always remind me of as answer some Zen Master gave when asked what he regretted most. He answered, Most of all I regret nothing. I would like to feel the same.

Liberal policies are generally popular (reproductive rights, health care quality/access, clean air and water, separation of church and state, etc). Which parts of "the librul agenda" are you thinking of?
The one where Kamala Harris dated a political power broker 30 years ago...
Oh and she cackles too.

Don't forget the gun grabbing, forcing social engineering like gender games, and excessive regulation.

Hmm, what was the total of guns grabbed when Obama left office?

Exaggerate much?

Who said it Trump or Obama?

β€œI like taking the guns early,”

β€œTo go to court would have taken a long time.”

β€œOr, Mike, take the firearms first and then go to court,”

β€œYou could do exactly what you’re saying, but take the guns first, go through due process second.”

For the most part, I agree with all of those...but the "pronouns", "the trans wars," decriminalizing more serious criminal acts, things like that are driving away many middle of the road voters who otherwise might also support the issues you mentioned.

It's not the reality of the Dems grabbing guns...it's the perception pushed by the Repubs about how the Dems want to take their guns.

Just think about 3 things for a week:

1. Most mass shooting victims would have survived if they were shot with a pistol and not a rifle.

2. Most domestic violence fatalities have pre-reported cases where the future victim requests protection and denial of gun rights from the future killer.

3. If we remove guns from the people in 2 and the type of gun in 1.. we're not getting rid of all guns and this is not likely to be excessive regulation and gun grabbing!

Don't have to answer me now.. take a week, 2 weeks.. reason it out with yourself.

Pronouns? You mean just respecting other people and following how they ask you to refer to them? The only people making a big deal out of trans stuff are Republicans who don't respect bodily autonomy.

What "serious criminal acts" have been decriminalized?

The "trans wars" are largely driven by the identity politics of the far right. Pronouns? Come on, don't be such a little bitch, people overwhelmingly don't really care that much. Most of America is like "well, I don't really get it, but okay". I have some experience in this area.
I am curious what this decriminalizing more serious criminals acts that you're talking about is, though.

Still have yet to meet anybody even inconvenienced by somebody's pronouns or a trans person simply existing in their presence.

Same bunch of social reactionaries who can't use the F word anymore and are mad about it.

those insidious talking points keep creeping in. Hammer BS enough and it takes on a reality all its own.

I mean I bet that that actually affects very few people who aren't trans or non binary. It's just engineered outrage.

That's fair enough.

Again that engineered outrage again.

Most honest take on both Biden and Trump that can be found. Tell me why I am wrong.
It is rather telling that both UK and France can hold whole elections in 2-3 months.

America has 4 months remaining, but we're supposedly stuck with Biden and cannot possibly mount a campaign with someone capable of campaigning. Especially with a convention coming up where Democrats could get together for the selection of a good candidate. For if we are not capable of producing one out of 330 million people... then maybe this dark timeline is our deserved fate. For when the supposed bastion of Democracy cannot do Democracy, the world has surely already turned upside down and our doom has already rang aloud.

Parliamentary systems are looking better by the day. With more focus on the party, and not the person. Where any danger to party or policy will often result in new leadership.

I work in a general hospital in a diverse city that's in a (small C) conservative area.
We get quite a few trans people in.
It's inconvenienced me.... well about zero times tbh. It's only an issue because people are pushing it as an issue.
