Over the last decade I have come to realize the NYT is the paper of oligarchy. They prefer liberal oligarchy but will always choose oligarchy over democracy.

I'll support either in but Biden is not doing what he needs to do to show he can lead and win. These closed door meetings with party elders and teleprompter speeches are not cutting it. He needs a public "show of strength" and if he can't do that then he needs to make way for Harris.

Trump has a lot of things to get through before the election. The convention and sentencing along with possible evidence released from two trials.

I am convinced that polls are overstating Trump's popularity.

Things are bad but all the more reason for optimism of the will and rejection of doomerism and nihilism. Only way out is through.

The Suprme Court just ended the "Is Biden too old?" debate. It doesn't matter who the candidate is....Democrats need to win.

She is the only person who is fully vetted and has access to the current campaign funds. It is either Joe or Kamala. Per I od.

The problem is that Biden's advisors made their decision months ago, so that ship has sailed. There are only three people that can make the decision to change course moving forward...President Biden, Jill Biden and Barack Obama. No one else.

If there is an alternative, it is Kamala Harris. If for nothing else, her name is the only other one on the checking account.

I mean, when Karl Rove looks like a person of color, you are way over your "white" skis.

The same with Semiglutides(Ozempic, Rybelsus). The people who need them are being swamped by the people who use them recreationally.

Again, the NY Times' editorial board has failed this country. And there is no greater indictment than never covering the trial of Sedition Panda.

Unfortunately, we are at the drill out or melt the old screw stage. A lot of work and risk ahead if we want to fix something.

What most men know and have experienced is that it is not hard to get laid. You just have to not be a total asshole. It is really not hard for most of us.

The firebombing of Dresdan is a good counter point to the racist accusations of the nucler targets at the end of WWII.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.

They give away the game in that their only response is to say "Democrats will fix it". They never have an actual plan other than waiting for the adults to show up.

Biden is trending up and will continue to the election. So much downside ahead for Trump. A tree stump will poll better than Trump by November.

The reality is that most Americans don't want to live in a deep red community and that is why they attack blue communities. They cannot sell their mostly failing policies so they attack mostly successful policies.

Maybe the question in the appellate court should have been..."So it would be OK if a President sent Seal Team 6 to kill a Supreme Court Justice?" I bet this case would have moved like greased lightening.

Absolutely! They have installed themselves as a corrupt shadow government, and we might as well say it. We need enough people riled up so that we can get terms limits in place. That means Alito and Thomas are the first to go.
