Could you please explain the 10th Amendment?
(Please be sure to quote yourself before the explanation, though :thumbsup:)

Excuse me, what use is a President who can't work with Democratic mayors? Does Trump think he can belittle and demonize Democrats, deny them access to medical supplies during a pandemic, stoke division and rancor, then expect full cooperation when he wants to intervene in their domestic problems? He's sowing what he reaped. That is just bad leadership.

Whatever else you can say about Biden, I believe that he is able to bridge the divide in a way that Trump is simply incapable of. He isn't leftist enough for my taste, but perhaps America right now doesn't need a leftist, what they need is someone who can heal the enormous partisan damage wrought by Trump.

He never directed his messages at other posters. They were always about Trump. I don't understand why he was banned. I guess that Trump supporters couldn't handle the continuous assault on Trump's character.
Probably spamming.

Posting the same nonsense over and over and over...

Pretty screwed up, same as our communications minister thinking the lockdown rules don't apply to her.
I find it highly objectionable that Pelosi claims this was a set up.
That she may not have worn a mask is neither here nor there when trump does the same.
Perhaps Pelosi made an innocent mistake confusing local laws when in her position she is dealing with multiple laws applied in different states - but to claim this was an intentional setup, and in doing so knew full well what that would do to a small business, is a stretch too far.

Every now and then the mask slips.

Yeah, the setup excuse is appalling - like people who get caught in crimes complaining about entrapment. People can make mistakes and the differing regulations in different states reason could be plausible. She should have owned this and admitted she was wrong.

I stooped quite low in joking that he (or she) had what is actually a serious mental illness. One should not joke about psychosis. It's the kind of thing that Trump might do.

These Trump supporters bring out the worst in me.
I refer to your so called "low-stooping joking" and "psychotic reasoning".
Permit me to do the same.
What if someone hypothetically jokes that a mental illness is not the reason for your illogical reasoning - that your psychosis is quite simply because you are "intellectually challenged"?

Y'know, that's great and everything, but:

Are we at all in disagreement about the meaning of the 10th amendment? So maybe you could tell me what you're getting at, as if it wasn't obvious. State rights mean that all the violence is Democrats' fault and ... they're holding the country hostage or something?

But I did already point out that none of this makes a case for WHY anybody should reelect Trump. Emjay admitted it would only get worse. More violence on the streets is not a reason to vote for anybody. Don't tell me what Trump can't do, Trump needs to make a case to the American people for how their lives will get better. And he can't because he doesn't have one.

It's virtue signalling to condemn 12 year old kids being assaulted (he was punched in the head), businesses being burnt down and innocent people being shot in the streets?

I think you forgot this under your pillow today, cerebus:

Of course not, it's virtue signalling to have to make the same statement every time people accuse you of not caring when leftist violence happens. Similarly with Biden yesterday having to make a statement in opposition to the violence, when he has already clearly taken a position against it many times, just because of the right-right deluded clamoring that he somehow supports it.

For the record: This act was awful and she should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

Read slowly. The violence is happening under TRUMP'S PRESIDENCY. Imagining that it will get better under Trump when it's actually getting worse under him is pure bootlicking delusion.

Well, if the violence is from opposition supporters, then it's on them. And saying that Trump is the problem and he must go for it to stop means the use or threat of force succeeded, which is also not good.

Firstly, there is no threat of force for Trump to go. That's just twisting the words of Joe Biden. Stating that Trump can't fix the violence is just factual.
