Mega-Thread: 2020 United States General Election

Well, if the typist is recording the minutes correctly, that's a shame. Couldn't that be said of ALL administrations, however? Find a true, unbiased version of that occurrence then. You can't.

Goodbye goalposts, we'll miss you.

As you make more money, you always accrue more debt, it's inevitable. Or, you could be Clinton or Obama, put the ENTIRE country in more debt, by kissing China's ass on the regular.

Trump has racked up a record amount of debt in one term. Under Trump, debt is going to surpass GDP for the first time since World War 2.

What I want to know is why the press isn't asking the White House why the 25th Amendment hasn't been invoked so Pence can take over as President while Trump is in the hospital to ensure that someone is 'leading' the country.

Of course whatever answer they would give, we know the real reason would be that invoking the 25th Amendment would be admitting that Trump's condition is far more serious than they are telling us.

To keep the image of trump being some perfect heathy human specimen whose body will treat COVID as just a simple cold.

You realize that Clinton had budget surpluses and the national debt fell during his presidency right?

No, of course you don't, because you just get all your info from Fox.

[TigTone]

You pull that outta yer ass? Check your facts with someone who does finances.

At this point both of you should post evidence to support your claims.

[TigTone]

You know what they say about assume!

Clinton was an asshat. The guy LIED about having an affair, while in the White House, and then was caught, red-handed. None of that has happened to our current president yet. Wait until something they levy against him is actually proven, before typing nonsense like that.

Clinton created a MASSIVE unnecessary surplus of jobs that he walked away from when Bush was elected, so that the market would crash during his presidency.

Didn’t trump pay for sex and lie about it?

I doubt a concern troll who's only interested in derailing the thread is gonna post any evidence.

I'll take that as confirmation that you didn't know Clinton lowered the debt and that you're just full of shit.

I'm assertive. Deal with that how you like, but please, don't attempt to insult me.

Assertive, and wrong.

The press has been asking, and they are saying that "we aren't there yet" or something similar (that's my paraphrase just to be clear). They wouldn't do it unless Trump was literally incapacitated. Invoking the 25th has only happened three times.

I figured as much.

[postman1782]

Right, that's why his entire family absolutely adores him. Hating on the president is old, tired, and just makes people look silly.

His family adores him, only because they are hoping to get money out of him when he dies. Though, at this rate, they will all end up in jail, besides Tiffany and Barron.

And you should ask Don Jr. about how his father raped his mother, and he stopped talking to his father for a fucking year. That is, until he realized he was going to be broke.

That is literally insane. Please don't post conspiracy theories.

It's true.

Your disease vector of a God Emperor is the king of racking up debt and then not paying it off. Not that I expect you to admit you're wrong since you're just a hit and run shitposter.

I’m just a really patient git. Hence time will tell.

Disagree, NC certainly is a key flip. the race isn't even close.

I stand corrected. It is a key flip. I think he’ll win anyway. The texts are pretty tame.

[Zaydin]

I figured as much.

I provided a link backing my claim up. I don't make shit up the way Trump supporters do.

Another source.

[postman1782]

See how you said you were done with me, but then kept going? Once again confirming you're a liar.

Didn't Trump bankrupt a casino?

I think he bankrupted 2, at least.

At this point we should make a habit of only responding with “provide your source” every time a claim is made without evidence.

It should help keep some “flies” away.

The GOP also lost the moral high ground to finger wag about crap like that when they defend a man who has been credibly accused by over 20 women of sexual assault, bragged about forcing himself on women and is actively fighting in court to not have to hand over a DNA sample in a rape case that could prove if he did or did not try to rape someone.

Yeah, no. Clinton nearly balanced the budget, Obama cute the deficits in half. Trump doubled our deficits with just the tax cuts. Who knows how much debt he has added JUST THIS YEAR, thanks to his shitty handling of the virus, even though he knew it was dangerous in fucking FEBRUARY.
