You and I have had some reasonable back and forth on COVID and trans issues. Gannan's Afghanistan stance is another good example. Pretty much all everyone disagrees with him there but I understand his reasoning and thoughts. I have very little patience for people who are just trying to shoehorn their agenda/stance to fit with everything Eg Procus arguing for ivermectin in COVID, Abra's pro Russia BS, Zuker's election fraud stuff. I have a very hard time seeing how anyone taking umbrage with Biden calling out literal domestic terrorists is arguing in good faith at this point. The MAGA nuts most certainly deserve everything Biden gave them and more. No doubt about that.

I also think there's a lot of people who reluctantly voted for Biden because they know Trump is an unacceptable person to occupy the white house. Which demonstrates a level of objective thought that puts them well outside Biden's defined boundaries of "MAGAs". I'm far more willing to engage and give the benefit of the doubt there to understand what are usually complicated reasonings than a serial apologist for the orange nightmare. More willing to give them the benefit of the doubt? Absolutely. But there's a limit. There's only so many times a person someone can pull the "I'm not a Trump supporter but <insert terrible take here>" card before that benefit is gone. I mean hell according to WV Mike he's an independent. Does he deserve the benefit of doubt when discussing issues anymore because of that? Everyone has their own line though I suppose.

To me, Biden failed to convey the message of defending democracy in a patriotic way rather than as a partisan Democrat. As much as I agree principally with what Biden discussed, this is where he fell short IMO and where I take umbrage. His speech struck me as overtly partisan, almost Trumpian, which is what I was hoping to avoid by voting for Biden.

Biden has been pretty reserved. But he isn't going to sit on the sidelines once Sept 1 passes. I think - purely on a political basis - it was too aggressive. I think he could have been more overtly open and welcoming to those on the right who have misgivings about Trump, which are the majority (though not overwhelmingly unfortunately). But clearly this was a speech meant to kick off mid-terms. This was red meat, or impossible slop if you prefer, for the left. Compared to Trump.. pretty milquetoast, hardly something to do more than yawn over.

Compared to Trump.. pretty milquetoast, hardly something to do more than yawn over. That's the funny part to me. Biden was talking about a group of people who stormed the Capitol to overturn a democratic election and the people who defend them through election denial. Is there a "bridge too far" in that regard? It was kind and gentle enough that he separated "Republicans" from "MAGA Republicans." Meanwhile, you'd have Trump celebrating holidays like this: Quote On July 4, 2020, at an appearance at Mount Rushmore, he took aim at the broad movement of people seeking to remove Confederate and other racially charged symbols, calling them "angry mobs” pursuing "far-left fascism” and a "left-wing cultural revolution.” At the White House, he congratulated himself on defeating "the radical left—the Marxists, the anarchists, the agitators, the looters.”

He was going to make tough choices that many werent going to like for the greater good of the country and all of its people. That was his platform. Biden ran on unifying the country. Governing for all no matter what your political affiliation and ideologies. It does make sense to expect unity from him. Very simple concept. You cant really pull any whataboutism on this one. There are probably a million other things you can criticize trump and his backers for. But you wont be right on this one. Youll get support and likes on your posts in here but these guys will like any nonsensical post as long as it reverberates well off the walls of the echo chamber. Wow. That is quite the interesting take on trumps "platform”.

September 4, 20223 yr Trump put them on tilt, so now they must see that in others. Pure projection. They arent even smart enough to come up with a new name… the problem is these lefties are the carbon copy of the trumpers they despise. It would be funny if it werent so pathetic

Trump sparked an insurrection attempt by feeding people really dumb lies about a "stolen" election, chasing his own VP out of the Capitol. Meanwhile he's calling up Georgia, asking them to "find votes." And he's still the champion of the GOP, giving stump speeches for other politicians. Kinda gives the impression that the party doesn't care about democracy...is there some OTHER way to interpret it?

Well done.
