For the left leaning inmates, why?

[was thatguy]

From my earlier post today.

Please, vote how you see fit.

The short answer for me is we’ve been headed down the wrong road for years with regard to infrustructure investment, healthcare, insurance and tax policy.

The Tax RefOrm and Jobs Act was a massive unfunded stimulus plan that will never pay for itself while piling on debt. Full disclosure, I’ve made a chunk in the market during the last four years, actually the last 10.

People need access to quality healthcare that doesn’t shift the entire burden on the rest of us, inluding small business owner. I don’t know that insurance reform in the form of the ACA is the answer either.

The rest is pretty straight forward. The Democrats are more interested in finding solutions than the current admin.

Is Joes recent call for a “Dark Winter” and “full lock down” really a search for a solution?

Oh wait...you elected the same type of problem solver in CA.

Or are you inline with squeezer and don’t care who the name or face is that eventually lands in the seat once Joe is 25’thd out of there and Nancy or Hillary punts Heels up Harris out of the way?

Like I said, ”He’s not Trump is compelling enough for most”

Reacting with feelings and emotions leads to irrational behavior.
Go sit down and have your mom get you a Pepsi son.

“He’s not Trump” is pretty compelling for most.

“He’s not Trump” is pretty compelling for most. -I can understand those people who can say that Trump is a Bully or hurts people's feelings but it is only the snowflakes that feel this way in my opinion.

If that’s not enough here are a few more.

I would like a president who is informed by and listens to scientist.-Trump does listen, he just uses some common sense and doesn't believe everything he is told just because someone told it to him. Scientists are not always right. None of them! Scientists are people that try to better understand things. If Scientists were always right then where is the cure for ALL diseases? And don't get me started on Global warming, they are looking at the last 5 minutes of a 5000 year game and trying to Monday Am quarterback what happened.

I would like a president who realizes we live on a globe and that Americans are better off by building and maintaining relationships with long term allies and trade partners.- Trump is doing this! He just isn't offering up the USA to be the Party Favor Whore to the rest of the world.

I would like a president who has a plan for fixing the broken healthcare model we have in this country. -Trump has been trying to do this for 4 years but the leftist won't come across the isle of party lines to even listen or try to negotiate.

I would like a president who is willing to invest in civic infrastructure. -Trump is doing this too. Just so happens that he started on the one Civic project that is most important to the security of our country 1st, our southern border wall.

I would like a president who goes all in on building an energy industry based on renewables. -Trump isn't stopping Renewables in any way. He just isn't willing to kill all of the other energy sectors until renewables can be a competitive and viable alternative without government subsidies.

I would like a president who believes she is president of all 50 states, not just the ones who voted for her.- Don't worry Trump's daughter will do this for you soon enough. In the meantime Trump knows that he is even your president right now too.

I would like a president who is willing to take appropriate action to streamline and legitimize the immigration process in this country. Trump is doing this too. The laws have been on the books for decades, he along with the majority of this country just want the immigration laws followed rather than broken or ignored.

I would like a president who doesn’t spend like a drunken sailor after cutting taxes on the ultra wealthy-. It is the Dems that want to spend like a drunken sailor and Raise your taxes so that they can justify doing it.

I would like a president who doesn’t think “There are fine people” in a group marching under Nazi symbols. -This is nothing more that Liberal propaganda and everyone knows it! Plan and simple. Otherwise show your proof and for every so-called item of your proof there will be multiple items that will show your proof as fiction.
“He’s not Trump” is pretty compelling for most.-And there you have it folks, The same ideology that the anarchists will use to destroy everything when they don't get their way.

I only know two Dem's that I can ask the questions. They will NEVER answer the questions. "I hate Trump" and "I'm not talking about this"
That is the only comeback they have it annoys me to know end. I would welcome a nice open minded discussion but it does not exist with the left.

The Democrat's are no longer liberals, they are leftists.

Once it’s thelaw, the TRACED Act will extend the period of time the FCC has to catch & punish those who intentionally break telemarketing restrictions. The bill also requires voice service providers to develop a framework to verify calls are legitimate before they reach your phone.

* US stock market continually hits all-time record highs.

And no 10 year old girls were sniffed or groped while doing any of that!

Nice copy and paste. He did all that BEFORE he was elected?...lol

 

[Tank]

And no 10 year old girls were sniffed or groped while doing any of that!

Serious though. In all seriousness, straight up - besides not really stating any actual policy in his campaign Biden has displayed some ABSOLUTE questionable behavior. Not to mention the fondling young girls but also the numerous racist remarks, his OBVIOUS and undeniable early onset dementia his flip flop stance and anything he’s called out on. His temper and quickness to challenge people to fight whenever called out on anything (which by the way is another example of dementia patients).
The guys a Fuckin train wreck.

 

[Tank]

Nice copy and paste. He did all that BEFORE he was elected?...lol

Absolute copy and paste. I’m not typing all that shit out. He’s done so much to better this country that’s never talked about in the media and this copy and paste was from a year ago. The list is even larger now. It’s good to post that up to remind those in denial like you, what he actually accomplished.

However for the record in the first paragraph I stated several policy stances I respect him for.

 

[just_floatin]

I have a fair amount of left leaning friends and family.

The irony is that 100% of them say if shtf they would be coming to our house because we are so “prepared”. Go figure
This

My long time liberal neighbors know I like to hunt AZ game. In the past, when something happens like a car break in or rear sliding door shatters for no reason, I get a call. Normally I listen and try to be a friendly ear offering reassurance in our local law enforcement. Not this week. If shtf in the neighborhood, I will be on vacation at the river camping out with my closest friends. There is a reason I have good home owners insurance and planned this vacation one year ago.

 

[Wheeler]

The difference between the left and right is where you want to draw that line.

 

[was thatguy]

I only know two libs that I can ask the questions. They will NEVER answer the questions. "I hate Trump" and "I'm not talking about this"
That is the only comeback they have it annoys me to know end. I would welcome a nice open minded discussion but it does not exist with the left.

They consider the 4 year attempt to destroy trump with lies and criminal behavior by our own government as legitimate and righteous.
They support, as a campaign platform, riots and looting and vilifying LE.
They support liberal DA’s and AG’s locking up tax paying citizens for defending their property and lives, yet releasing violent offenders who instigate these crimes while committing burglary, arson, assault, and assault on police.
They support all these things while dismissing it a false Russian narrative that Joe and family actively sold out this country EVEN THOUGH Joe bragged about it on camera, and no less than 3 former associates have confirmed the data...data on Hunters laptop, data from a former associates GMail account, literally tens of thousands of pictures, and the deposition of Bobulinski that verified the legitimacy of all his claims
All of that is fake as far as they are concerned, yet Schiff and his 4 year lying smear fest is legit?
They are engulfed with chronic TDS.
There is no debate to be had.
But all that aside, what really disgusts me the absolute most without question is that they have zero issue brushing aside the further exposure of the DC pedophile club.
The pictures do not lie.
Every layer that gets peeled in DC and by extension Hollywood always has an underlying theme. Pedophilia.
Hunter is right there on camera naked with his own 14 yo niece.
“Hunter isn’t running for President” is the answer. Yeah well OK.
So what about the endless groping videos of Joe and little girls? What about when Sessions blocks Joe from touching his grand daughter?
These things matter to me.

 

[RiverDave]

Changed it up a little from 4 years ago....lol

Not a single (R) I know has ever said “I’m voting Trump because I really like his policy and stance on (insert anything here). It just comes down to “he’s not Hillary” and that’s the whole Trump/Pence running platform.

Well that’s not true Bobby I said I liked a lot of things about Trump and his promises during his campaign.. ??

 

[RiverDave]

From my earlier post today.

Please, vote how you see fit.

The short answer for me is we’ve been headed down the wrong road for years with regard to infrustructure investment, healthcare, insurance and tax policy.

The Tax RefOrm and Jobs Act was a massive unfunded stimulus plan that will never pay for itself while piling on debt. Full disclosure, I’ve made a chunk in the market during the last four years, actually the last 10.

People need access to quality healthcare that doesn’t shift the entire burden on the rest of us, inluding small business owner. I don’t know that insurance reform in the form of the ACA is the answer either.

The rest is pretty straight forward. The Democrats are more interested in finding solutions than the current admin.

Obama’s “affordable care act” doubled most people’s premiums I know.. their deductibles are so ridiculous I am not even sure you can call it health insurance unless you have something catastrophic happen.
Average went up 27% (going off memory here) in AZ alone..


Trump got rid of the individual mandate, and is now attempting to replace it with something more affordable while covering PRE EXISTING CONDITIONS..


I don’t understand how anybody in America isn’t 100% for that?

Do you know what Obama’s health care website cost when he was in office? The answer is more than Trumps actual wall.

How someone didn’t Goto jail for that is beyond me. I could have gotten that website done honestly for 20-30k? Let’s say we go all in and have it texting you, and doing all kinds of crazy shit it would be less than 250k for things ya haven’t even thought of..

[Singleton]

going to try to keep this as a conversation. Can you address my questions / statements below.

“I would like a president who is informed by and listens to scientist.
I think he does, but Trump questions the answers he gets. Also Trump dislikes the flip-flopping, he wants an answer and dislikes someone changing the answer two weeks later. Every CEO, CFO I know and worked for has stated the same ‘you get one chance to answer the question and it better be right, if you don't have an answer or know it wait before you answer it’

I would like a president who realizes we live on a globe and that Americans are better off by building and maintaining relationships with long term allies and trade partners.
Excluding China, who else has he pissed off? Look at the Middle East peace, if those leaders were pissed at the US and Trump, they would not be doing what they are with the agreements.

I would like a president who has a plan for fixing the broken healthcare model we have in this country.
It got worse not better with OCare IMO. Can you share the details of Biden plans that will make it better? I would really like to know what he wants to do, but have not seen any details on it.

I would like a president who goes all in on building an energy industry based on renewables.
please explain why and details on Bidens plan. I live in a state that can‘t keep the lights on now, and most renewables are not maintaining or producing the energy they stated they would. Electric cars and the batteries required have a huge environmental impact, what do we do with those and the mining required to build those.

I would like a president who is willing to take appropriate action to streamline and legitimize the immigration process in this country.
The House and Senate have had years to fix this. Why is this Trumps fault now? Come correctly and most are OK with that, come illegally you go home. I agree those illegals that are working, paying taxes and part of society need a better path, but why is this Trumps fault? What has the House and Senate not pass a bill to correct this?

 

[regor]

going to try to keep this as a conversation. Can you address my questions / statements below.

[500bbc]

“He’s not Trump” is pretty compelling for most.

If that’s not enough here are a few more.

I would like a president who is informed by and listens to scientist.

I would like a president who realizes we live on a globe and that Americans are better off by building and maintaining relationships with long term allies and trade partners.

I would like a president who has a plan for fixing the broken healthcare model we have in this country.

I would like a president who is willing to invest in civic infrastructure.

I would like a president who goes all in on building an energy industry based on renewables.

I would like a president who believes she is president of all 50 states, not just the ones who voted for her.

I would like a president who is willing to take appropriate action to streamline and legitimize the immigration process in this country.

I would like a president who doesn’t spend like a drunken sailor after cutting taxes on the ultra wealthy.

I would like a president who doesn’t think “There are fine people” in a group marching under Nazi symbols.

I would like a president who doesn’t compel my international co-workers to genuinely express concern for my safety and fellow countryman’s sanity.

(How many more would you like)

So you're voting for a pedophile with dementia that has been in office for 47 years, you're a fucking idiot.

 

[2Driver]

You might vote for Biden if.....

you never took an economics class
working to get something for free seems easier than just working for money
you work at or own a company who’s revenue is tied to government waste and corruption
you vote on emotion vs facts and track record
you have been convinced that you are a victim of capitalism and a free market
you have an overwhelming animosity toward anyone that lives better than yourself
you believe taxes are something others should pay
you believe mining lithium vs oil will cool the planet earth by 3 degrees
you believe the citizens that built this great country can only make it better by handing it over to a dysfunctional corrupt government.
when asked about your accomplishments you refer back to trophies you won in grade school.
You view other's successes as a lucky card they drew
........

 

[Singleton]

I expect no answer, copy / paste from MSM or deflecting.
Will show an unwillingness to have a civil conversation - my biggest issue with the left

my question is after 4 years now where is his health care program ? He keeps saying next week but nothing yet. It would be nice to have some affordable health care and we haven’t seen that yet.

While I agree with you, there is not a lot that can be done with the ACA still in play.

If/when it is wiped out, something does need to be put up in its place. The details of how, and when it would be wiped out are also unclear, so I have reserved judgement until there is a clear path of how to move forward.

 

[Singleton]

my question is after 4 years now where is his health care program ? He keeps saying next week but nothing yet. It would be nice to have some affordable health care and we haven’t seen that yet.

while I agree with where is his plan, until ACA litigation is over, not much can be done IMO.
plus the division in politics is limiting doing what is best. i think the majority on this website will agree the ACA has hurt more then helped.

[lake p.a.l.]

I wish anyone voting for Biden/Harris was forced to walk the shit-filled streets of San Francisco, Oakland & almost every northern CA city. Look at all the homeless camps etc. Is that what these Libtards want to do to the rest of America? I honestly can't understand anyone voting Democrat. I wish Trump would shut his mouth sometimes & wasn't quite so arrogant but there is no denying how great our economy was before this scamdemic.

I agree 100% that Obama care wasn’t the best by far, Donald has the presidency and the senate so I for sure thought we would have seen something by now.

And I wish people understood that Trump's tweets or some of the things he says are no different than how most people communicate.

And I wish people understood that Trump has been all alone (except for the millions who support him) taking on the Deep State, The Swamp, corruption and everyone working against him.

And I wish people understood that this election is about Freedom vs Marxism and Trump not being perfect is a small price to pay for the great things he's done and will do to help Americans and America

 

[Cdog]

I agree 100% that Obama care wasn’t the best by far, Donald has the presidency and the senate so I for sure thought we would have seen something by now.

It takes the house too. Which obviously isn't going to vote in favor of dismantling 0 care. Remember the AZ assholes song bird mccain & flake voted down to end this nightmare out of their own petty hurt pride.

Look at this cocksucker lapping up the drama. I hope he rots in hell.

 

[RiverDave]

Read the transcript... My blood pressure spikes dangerously high whenever I hear tucker speak!

why?

 

[PlanB]

I find it hard to believe that anyone voting for the left would be on a site that revolves around boats that burn fossil fuels. Should you not live by your parties ideals and be on a kayak or SUP site?

 

[was thatguy]

why?

CNN told him Tucker is the devil.
Which is compounded by Swueezies selective atheism.

 

[Rajobigguy]

I've got to say that so many people seem concerned about affordable health care has me worried. Everyone talks about which side is going to offer a better health care plan and I don't think it should be the governments responsibility to insure anyone. What I think the governments responsibility should be is to make sure that health care is affordable and not a gravy train for the insurance company's. When I was growing up almost no one had health insurance, when you got sick you went to the doctor and paid for his services and they were affordable. that is where the true problem lies, not in what insurance plan is the best but the root cause is the forever escalating price of health care. If we can make health care more reasonable then we wont need gov. sponsored health care.

Ahhhhh.....Doctor Flip/Flop.....Here is a better picture of him enjoying his 15 minutes of fame. A true used car salesman

It takes the house too. Which obviously isn't going to vote in favor of dismantling 0 care. Remember the AZ assholes song bird mccain & flake voted down to end this nightmare out of their own petty hurt pride.

Look at this cocksucker lapping up the drama. I hope he rots in hell.

One of the biggest challenges with discussing politics is the necessity for all sides to accept facts as opposed to emotion.

I agree 100% that Obama care wasn’t the best by far, Donald has the presidency and the senate so I for sure thought we would have seen something by now.

I remember reading in November he was going to announce something in early spring 2020, then impeachment and Covid hit and focus changed. Now until ACA is heard by the SC nothing will be announced

I find it hard to believe that anyone voting for the left would be on a site that revolves around boats that burn fossil fuels. Should you not live by your parties ideals and be on a kayak or SUP site?

that is some funny shit the problem is everyone thinks if you vote blue you are against guns, boats, big motors, etc.... I truly think the problem we have these days is the right throws a blanket on anyone that votes blue with the libtard name or socialists name. It’s like saying you voted for donald so it’s ok to grab my daughter by the pussy....I know a lot of my republican friends that don’t think that way... just my thoughts

I expect no answer, copy / paste from MSM or deflecting.
Will show an unwillingness to have a civil conversation - my biggest issue with the left

Squeeky will be civil................just deflecting.

The whole thing was dirty politics, I'm sure you are aware...

"McCain, who returned to the Senate this week after learning he had brain cancer last week, said in a statement after the vote that he wanted to go back and use the committee process, while working with Democrats on healthcare."


Oh how Nobel.... How many republicans were awarded input on enslaving us with 0 care? It was a poison pill move and you know it.

I've got to say that so many people seem concerned about affordable health care has me worried. Everyone talks about which side is going to offer a better health care plan and I don't think it should be the governments responsibility to insure anyone. What I think the governments responsibility should be is to make sure that health care is affordable and not a gravy train for the insurance company's.

Don’t forget the bureaucracy that is higher education and all the money being made to enlighten us all.

You might vote for Biden if.....

you never took an economics class
working to get something for free seems easier than just working for money
you work at or own a company who’s revenue is tied to government waste and corruption
you vote on emotion vs facts and track record
you have been convinced that you are a victim of capitalism and a free market
you have an overwhelming animosity toward anyone that lives better than yourself
you believe taxes are something others should pay
you believe mining lithium vs oil will cool the planet earth by 3 degrees
you believe the citizens that built this great country can only make it better by handing it over to a dysfunctional corrupt government.
when asked about your accomplishments you refer back to trophies you won in grade school.
You view other's successes as a lucky card they drew
........

you forgot "suffers from the delusion that government has some altruistic need to take care of you" when it fact it gives zero fucks.

Sounds somewhat hypocritical if you’re supporting people who want to take those rights away from you.

Not a copy and paste... "She" is a generic placeholder as suitable for this conversation as "He" is.

Not really.....

I would like a president who doesn’t think “There are fine people” in a group marching under Nazi symbols.

This right here shows you how deranged the left is, they can't even take the time to listen to the next 5 seconds of his speech where Trump explicitly says he's not talking about white supremacists who he condemns completely.

They cannot accept objective reality.

I was referring to the flat out lie in your post that Flake voted against repeal with McCain when in reality Flake voted for the repeal consistently and also tried to persuade McCain to vote in the affirmative in the specific vote you referred to.

The problem with political discussions is that people are willing to make knowingly false accusation to make their point, as opposed to any honest attempt at objectivity.

As a result, political discussions become about as useful as a poop flavored lollipop.......
