Jared has great courage. With a nepotistic background in finance, he fixed the Middle East.

Nothing. Jared was an example of a nepo baby adding to the swamp.
Did anybody catch Tulsi' CPAC speech? She isn't making any friends, that's for sure haha!

Why can’t she be running rather than the dementia patient and the asshole?
Love Tulsi on 90% of the issues

Agreed, no one will any of us agree with on everything (except QO and Trump, and gblock on Biden) but I agree, she is a classical liberal I would absolutely vote for.
I still don't think Trump will be president.
With that said, here is my craziest conspiracy yet:
No matter who gets elected, Biden or Trump, they will not get to see the end of their term. Either one will be unheartbeated. Natural causes for one, targeted for the other.

lol because I refuse to vote for Trump that’s what I get labeled as. U are truly an idiot. Also labeling yourself as the middle of the road voice of reason almost made me spill my coffee. 10/10 post
Going back to Tulsi for a moment. I wonder at her courage to say what's on her mind, even to this day.
Either she wasn't in office long enough to "get her mind right" by the powers that be OR she was in office long enough to catch on to what is going to capture and keep blue collar America's attention.
What's everybody else's thought on that?

lol, I guarantee I have voted for more D President candidates than you have R.

Would be interesting if Trump picks her as his running mate ............ a lot of heads would explode I imagine.

You are probably correct because I spent most of my life not voting because I have always believed both sides are corrupt.
Nevertheless that doesn’t make me any less intelligent than you because I refuse to vote for Trump especially or even any R candidate given the current state of their party. They don’t align with my beliefs on abortion, gay marriage, corporate tax breaks, Health Care and I could go on. I’m sorry u can’t comprehend that. Im also sorry the R's cant come up with a better candidate.
You on the other hand will continue to try to sound smarter than everyone by chiming in with people who will never see a ticket and how u love their ideas, then go even further and talk about how you are going to write in your favorite candidate.
Then when the election comes you are going to vote for Trump because at the end of the day there are only two choices. I don’t make the rules. So for once just shut the f uk up and don’t be a smug pretentious ass.

I didn’t say you were less intelligent.
I said few on here just tow the party line on either side other than QO and you.
You literally just admitted I was right, that you tow the party line yet still call me an asshole.
You said I pretend to be in the middle yet I have actually voted both sides during POTUS and fully admit I vote opposite ticket on senate/house vs potus.
Thats the opposite of pretending, that’s doing.
You just ranted for a few paragraphs admitting I was right but an asshole, sure if that makes you feel better .

I literally gave reasons why I was voting that way THIS year. If things change and n 4 years I will evaluate as I do every time I have voted. As I have stated many times both sides are trash and I have not voted most of my life because of that belief.
I think it’s the “tow the line” narrative I don’t like that somehow you are making a a smart choice based on your values and I’m being controlled by dark Brandon or something
I think that by now everybody should be able to readily admit that Republicans and Democrats (parties) are both corrupt. Maybe eight good people in totality.
The Dems have been making moves to corrupt and ruin what they claim is "our democracy" under the guise of saving democracy. But they've had plenty of help doing this from a large number of Republicans.
Whatever peoples ideals are of either party are outdated AF and that's what the establishment wants.
There ARE other ways of voting outside of the duopoly and to say there isn't is just as outdated. Nobody's vote is getting tossed away. In fact, the more people who write in, vote for the green party, libertarian, etc. the better. It's high time people shake and rattle both parties by not voting for either. Let them take notice, even if it takes several cycles and force them to act upon the disfavor that the votes are showing them.

Its possible I suppose, but improbable in my lifetime would be my guess
O/U on how many times jmog and geeblock together use the word "literally" during their upcoming argument: 25
I’m not doing another jmog argument so 0 for me lol

What's the definition of insanity? You can try and vote third party or write in, but it is wasting a vote. People trying to push something outside the two parties is insane.
American was, is, and will continue to be a two party system.
Teddy is the closest we came to a new party, and that led to Woodrow Wilson. Even Perot didn't crack 20%.
Thinking that some green party or libertarian candidate will win any major office is a fantasy.
The only way to change is to change within the existing two party system. If there was ever a year for third party, it is this year and guess what...they are all failing badly.

By all means, if you are content or comfortable being stuck in that rut, more power to you.

Putting me in a category with QO was not a compliment. No offense QO. 😂
