For those who do not understand what is happening in America and around the globe.

Donald Trump is not running against a person called Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump is running against a '' Media Created Character ''.

The Dems did not want Kamala. But with the help of the mass media, they've turned a disrespected, hated and non existent politician into a somewhat viable character. She will just keep hiding and let the fake news continue to remake her non existent personality and intellect.

As we now know was the case with basement Joe.

I don't think you are wrong.

But also think it shows what an unviable candidate Trump really is. He only has a niche audience and anyone who doesn't have dementia has a good chance to beat him.

I wish it was someone not connected to the Obama/Clinton era rather than her, but sadly, if she can beat Trump then she will do, so Dems don't need to go out on a limb and let any new blood into the conversation.

I agree with your last sentence. But Trump not being a viable candidate is false. He did garner up 76 million votes. We still don't know for sure how Biden got 81 million. There were just so many discrepancies in the balloting.

You know, so many fake accusations like the Russian Collusions, no laptop and the so called Rapes and lying about how much his properties are worth and so on and so forth.

It's difficult to digest the whole debacle.

what you don't understand is this is how it starts. You see what's happening in the UK right? Cops are kicking in people's doors and arresting people because someone in the government didn't like what they posted on Facebook. That just happen. It started a few years ago with fines.

Look at Canada. It started with fines also. Then Trudeau froze people's bank accounts if they dared donate to the Truckers. Now, you can be imprisoned for saying something someone considered in appropriate. Just as in the UK.

Australia looks like they are headed in the same direction. They will undoubtedly get there because they have people like you who think its no big deal.

We still don't know for sure how Biden got 81 million. There were just so many discrepancies in the balloting.

Please stop pedaling this nonsense. There were no discrepancies in the balloting. Trump and his minions filed like 80 cases and EVERYONE of them were thrown out and this was with mostly Republican courts. You can go to your state election board and look up your vote right now. There's a ton of checks and balances in our elections. Maybe volunteer, spend some time on the front line and educate yourself on the process. Trump lost, stop being a sore fukking loser.

81 million people didn't vote for Biden. 81 million people voted against Trump. What do you think is going to happen in November? 90 million will go out and vote against him again. Trump is the most hated man in the entire world. He has alienated nearly every class of people. Think about all the diversity in this country. Why would people of color, gay, lesbian, etc., vote for Trump? Elon Musk's son is now a transgendered daughter. Elon Musk's son. Do you really think she would ever vote for Trump? This country is changing. There's a significant number of people that are not like you and I. He's pissed off even the people who backed him. He screws the people closest to him. How many people did he hire then fire or they resigned. EVEN MIKE PENCE HAS SAID HE WOULDN'T SUPPORT TRUMP. DAMN!!! This guy is a fukking mess. He couldn't keep a wife, couldn't keep workers, couldn't keep his VP. He's a total wreck of a businessman. He makes money by being a grifter. He's still fukking people over. Never Trumpers will never vote for him. People have openly said they would vote for Donald Duck before Donald Trump.

they also destroyed Hunter's cocaine they found in the White House. They even said Hunter wasn't there that day but he was it came out later. Then someone lied to that chick who testified at the J6 sham committee that Trump grabbed the steering wheel and demanded they drive to the Capitol. That was also a lie as confirmed by an different SS agent who was actually in the vehicle when it happened.

We already know about the weaponization of the justice system against Biden's political opponent.

Ya I'd say long overdue rethinking your support. There are a ton of good people working at these places, but there are a lot of dirt-bags at the top. Imagine 51 of them colluding together to outright lie to the public by signing a letter saying the laptop story was Russian disinformation?

You also left out the Trump assignation attempt. The SS blames the locals. When the locals started to argue that lie,they were suddenly quiet. Like being shut down by the SS. Or Black and Whites. The Nazi’s used to call their SS the Brown Shirts.

Once again. This looks like a miscommunication, mix up. Not someone trying to break into a store to steal shit. Nothing was taken. Well a first responder ate some mints.
Berkshires businesswoman Alicia Powers says someone picked the lock and broke into her store for the bathroom — after a Secret Service officer covered a camera outside her salon with tape.[/COLOR]
Once again, she said it looked like someone picked the lock. That is not a fact. Maybe the door was left open. Breaking a window or smashing the door down is breaking into her store. Did she have to get the lock fixed? NOPE. So how can she pin this on the SS? Maybe the first responders picked the lock, if indeed it was picked. Where's the facts? Also, it is standard policy that SS will cover up cameras of places that they are protecting elected officials. I don't see it as their way of concealing their dirty deeds.
The people who proceeded to use the bathroom included a pair in emergency medical uniforms, a person in camouflage law-enforcement gear and someone in a dark suit and white shirt similar to a Secret Service officer who guarded the door, Powers said, citing footage.[/COLOR]
I haven't seen any footage of SS using the bathroom. Maybe they did but I read where she gave them permission to use the bathroom. The disagreement is on what day. For her to close the salon because she knew SS would be using the place, leads me to believe that SS thought they had permission to use the salon. Now, breaking into the salon would be a clear no no but there's zero proof that they broke in.
A Secret Service rep was adamant that agents would not break into buildings like that — but did not deny that an officer covered her camera with tape, an act that was captured by surveillance footage, and appeared to cop some sort of mea culpa in a statement.

Like I said, it is not unusual for SS to cover cameras.[/COLOR]

I'm the last person to just blanket take up for the police. I have criticized law enforcement many times in this forum. But I call it like I see it. If the door was busted, thousands of dollars in salon equipment was stolen, the place ransacked, etc., maybe I would be outraged. BUT NOTHING was missing, the door/lock was not busted and the only problem was that they left a bathroom untidy and even that has not been proven. Of course we can't have law enforcement illegally entering establishments but knowing that she said that she gave them permission, tells me that this was a misunderstanding.

Why the outrage? What's the point? Because they were protecting Harris? Who cares? SS protects a lot of people. They fukked up protecting Trump. Yes, let's be critical about that but there's not much to see here with this one.

who decides on what is misinformation or disinformation? There are many thing the media has said were true but in fact were not. Many times they were outright lies. Same goes for the government. Look at Biden as an example during his debates. He said Trump called Nazi's very fine people" and 51 former intelligence officials said the laptop was Russian disinformation.

I rather have freedom of speech knowing there will be misinformation, rather than some government bureaucrat deciding on what is true or not. Of course threatening harm to someone is different.

The kid had him dead to rights. Amazing how Trump turned his head less than a second before the bullet reached him. If the kid goes center mass, Trump is out of the race.

20 year old kid is expendable to say the least. Also impressionable, depressed and easy to fool. Just let him know he'll be famous and if he gets away with it, he's sitting pretty for the rest of his life.

Don't you find it odd the the SS could see him plain as day and yet allowed him to get off 5 or more shots.?. Even if you don't, I do. Can't help it.
