Perhaps DNA explains why Beau Biden( was it Beau?) died of brain cancer. Joe had a double-brain aneurysm many years ago and almost died. Does his flirtation with death have a direct bearing on his obvious dementia???Perhaps--perhaps not. But---does it really matter??why would a sane, informed society elect a man to the presidency in the nuclear age which is also in the middle of a pandemic??I done';t care about Trumps' less than stellar personality. Before the Virus, the economy was pretty terrific and he was very tough on China and Iran and was very friendly with Israel. That's good enough for me. If you want perfection, go to the Garden of Eve before Adam & eve. Besides, Trump is a fighter---at this stage, Biden couldn't lick his deceased hamster. It's your call....

" At a campaign stop in Wisconsin last week, he warned baldly: "The only way we're going to lose this election is if the election is rigged."

He has also targeted the postal service. With the pandemic making physical distancing imperative, a record number of mail-in ballots is expected, meaning that the outcome is unlikely to be known on election night. Trump recently admitted that he was blocking money sought by Democrats for the postal service so he could stop people voting by mail....

... This week a bipartisan Senate intelligence report revealed the extent of contacts between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 election. It found that Paul Manafort, the former campaign chairman, worked closely with "Russian intelligence officer" Konstantin Kilimnik. US intelligence has warned that Russia is already interfering in the 2020 election with the aim of getting Trump re-elected.

But such threats currently appear less fundamental than that posed by a president gone rogue a man who this week welcomed the support of believers in a baseless righting conspiracy theory that holds the world is run by a shadowy cabal of Satan-worshipping paedophiles."

Well, a lot of people were hoping to elect a woman but this is how the cookie crumbles.

Do your loved ones know you found access to a computer and have begun posting your conspiracy theories on the internet? There must be people you care for. If you are proud of what you are doing here, I recommend you show them your work and ask them how they feel about it.

I have a genuine question. Does anyone know what the Republican party wants to implement if they were to have another 4 years in power? With the election 3 months away, I have yet to see any policy proposals or government goals. All I have seen are lies and dishonesty, and the lies have been obvious and stark.

Repeal and replace, lower taxes, trade wars are easy to win, clean coal, build the wall, conservative judges, get Russia in the G7, disband NATO, trigger the libs, war on christmas, oh and infrastructure week.

45 has also given Russia a free pass on pretty much everything.

In any case, the irony in the original post is astounding. We're going to look at that very strongly, very powerfully.

This is a hilarious question coming from someone who plans to vote for Biden.

Please tell me what policies Biden has been proposing that have got you really excited. And no, you can't reference the platform. What exactly is it that Biden is running on that has you convinced he's going to do good things?

I got some clear, specific messages from the Democrats last week! Over the next four years, we will...

+ be decent

+ chat with elevator operators and REALLY LISTEN

+ maybe not be totally honest, but for sure tell less lies than Trump has

+ work hard to win over as many women and Blacks as possible, by putting them center stage and being decent

+ hope that Latinos still vote for us because we're not the ones talking about building a wall

+ hope that just enough progressives vote for us to win the White House and win back the Senate


I'm on board!

Do you really expect this from the Party of No? They will have all kinds of proposals and ideas once they are out of power, though.

One thing that Trump has hinted at is eliminating the payroll tax, which would mean either killing Social Security or putting the country into even more debt - probably both.

Dear Big C: Every now and then I see a glimmer of hope coming from you. Good thing I was already wacky BEFORE I started to follow politics. Also a good thing I was ALREADY a drinker before I started to care whether or not Hillary exceeded her daily quota of telling 125 lies . Hillary can now breathe easy. She is no longer the worlds' greatest female liar. Kamala is the new champion. I'm a little surprised at Willie Brown..He could have had his pick of adoring , silly leftie ladies, and, he picked Kamala. ????Willie--something is disappearing beside your brain..

Why answer questions from reporters when Captain Catastrophe AKA: The Criminal In Chief is performing so spectacularly with the pandemic, China, Russia, unemployment, North Korea, the economy, school openings, pardons, further indictments, and foreign relations? Seems like the strategy is working since the Idiot in Chief is so on top of things and unlikely to change his winning strategy. Nothing to worry about here.

Honestly, helltopay1, I think I would enjoy having a beer or whatever with most all of the conservative folks that post on Bear Insider (one exception I can think of). If they didn't drink, great, I could have theirs. I'm not sure we would discuss politics, but we could if they wanted to... conservatives tend to not want to talk politics with me, but we do fine on almost everything else.

Your Hillary and Kamala stuff (like the above) is ridiculous, but I don't care. You have your views and I have mine.

Given the history of Democrats and rigged elections, Trump has every reason to worry about them rigging the upcoming election. Every honest person knows that the reason that Dems want mass mailing of ballots is so that they can vote for dead people, the elderly, and people who have moved; steal ballots from mail boxes; destroy completed ballots from conservative areas; and have illegals and felons vote. For similar reasons, they don't want to require voters to display an ID. The Dems are genetically crooked. They know it's hard for them to win an honest and legitimate election. Check their history in Chicago and New York City, etc. for evidence of this.


Liberalism is a mental illness.

You just make stuff up. You accuse your opposition of doing the things you do - it's called projection. You are a sad, stupid, pathetic little old loser. And before you can go to your standard reply: Libs call names, blah blah blah. Look in the mirror, you self centered moron.

Hey Golden Shower, show us the evidence or shut your pie hole!

Biden seems to be doing fine answering David Muir's interview questions right now .......as opposed to tRump during the Jonathan Swan interview on Axios where he looked like a confused old man furiously shuffling through newspapers looking for a hardware store receipt.

I'm glad Biden is no going on TV, and not being passive. Neither he nor Harris were taking questions on their Zoom pressers. I don't get the continued reverence to Trump's TV abilities. He rambles.

The universe of alleged information that tRump supporters are exposed to leaves them completely unaware of things like Biden and Harris giving an interview and intelligently answering questions. If it didn't happen on the shows of Carlson, Hannity or Ingraham, it simply didn't happen.

With regard to tRump (as well as Mark Meadows) being asked questions about QAnon and responding that they haven't heard of it and know nothing about it:

Does it make you feel better if they are liars or just stupid?

Sorry Big-C but the only way to deal with these a-holes is to call them out on the crap they post. They don't have the ability to listen to reason. You are wasting your time if you try.

"Calling them out" does not equal "calling them names". it only reflects poorly on the caller. You're right about the "wasting your time" part. I rarely engage some of these folks when they're spouting ridiculousness. Pointless.

" Given the history of Democrats and rigged elections.."

That is rich considering both Dubya's "wins" were dubious (Little bro "delivered" Florida vs Gore; Kerry got Swift Boated by Texas oil money). tRump's "win" bears a giant asterisk.
