Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

This is a despicable article: https://www.freep.com/story/news/politi ... 967511002/

The intent is clearly to push undecided voters to Biden. Why is this being reported on, if even accurate, BEFORE the actual election day? Is it any mystery why the corrupt corporate media is dying?


Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

I think it's a disgusting process that folks are allowed to revote. All it does it cost us ALL more money in the voting process and increase the chances for errors. If YOU voted too early and YOUR candidate dropped out, TOO BAD. YOU made the choice to vote early. You could have done it just prior to Tuesday. I think they were due Friday, so I'd be OK with saying you can change if the candidate dropped out between the time you HAD to mail it and the actual election - maybe a week at the most.

If the papers were being honest to the voters, their position would really be "Sanders is not a viable candidate because he is a self-admitted socialist and against the foundations of this country, therefore Biden is the only Democratic candidate left"

So reporting on an actual quirk of Michigan Election Law that is coming into play now is corrupt? There’s nothing unusual about that article at all. You just don’t like it because it’s reporting on how people are switching to Biden and you’re afraid he’ll win in November...

IMHO if your candidate dies then revoting should be allowed, but if they drop out, tough shit. I will early vote, always do, but it will be the last day it is open, which is the week before our primary. As for being worried about Biden winning the general, I know he is the presumed nominee but he doesn't have it yet so to worry about that makes no sense.

So of the two you don’t have one you would rather face?

My only concern about Biden is that he won't remember his name. If you can't see the ethical issue with endorsing a candidate and then reporting that things are looking good BEFORE election day, I can't help you.

It’s not about things looking good... it’s about the option to change your vote... that’s the point of the article. That things are looking good is a fact...

A trump supporter is the last person I want to hear comments on mental faculties from... Trump is already gone and showing significant signs of dementia...

I'm saving this post. The night of the Trump/Biden debate, I'm gonna shove it square up your ass. No lube!


New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

Wonderful.... the guy who said the thing about the airports in the Revolutionary war is gonna come out on top in a debate. The guy who's logic cannot be followed at his rallies is gonna come out on top in a debate? The guy who didn't even know people die from the flu and says all sorts of other things where it's unclear what he was talking about to anybody is gonna win a debate? :lol :lol :lol

Biden has a speech impediment... Trump is on another planet...

No.

The self-tagged Very Stable Genius has a mental illness. It’s called Narcissistic Personality DISORDER.

Very dangerous in a leadership position where he/she must take responsibility for the safety of others. AND make that duty the superior priority.
