Agree with everything except the "anybody who voted for Biden". I'm going to guess that 90% of them are aghast at this and really did not think this could happen.

I knew he was all of those things, and arrogant to boot. But I know good people who voted for him.

I know good people who voted for him - but good people do sin. We all do. Sins have consequences. Arrogant good people risk ending up with blood on their hands.

Yes. I know good people who voted for Biden. I deeply disagreed with them but could say very little. Why ? Because it was downright fashionable, virtuous to rail about how horrible Orange Man was, but publicly unforgivable to criticize Biden who was clearly into early dementia.

And even when I had a few times that loved ones would want to understand why I supported Trump -warts and all- as the least objectionable choice they truly didnтАЩt know what I was talking about.

ALL of their info came from Facebook, CNN, etc. they never heard of Hunter Biden, Burisma, laptop, how so many strings of accusations against Trump had been disproven (Mueller ReportтАж). The truth had been all hidden from them and they could only look at me quizzically.

So thatтАЩs what you get from a dishonest media with almost total control over information and an agenda. Good people will make bad decisions when fed bad information (and especially when thatтАЩs fed to them in their echo chamber).

If youтАЩre having a hard time understanding me now please take one tiny sample (of many hundreds) and go look up what Trump ACTUALLY said at Charlottesville. DonтАЩt watch a CNN or YouTube clip (they were edited). Read the actual statement with an open mind.

Reminds me: Thank You Bari, and the actual journalists who want to breathe life back into journalism.

I guess our definition of good people is different. Mine includes being informed.

My condolences for the loss of your father. He would be proud though of how you think for yourself and have open eyes about what this country was built on. If more people would really learn how much of the worldтАЩs history the countryтАЩs founders had studied and worked out and negotiated amongst each other, respecting many different points of view, they would see why diverse thinking is so critical.

WeтАЩre at a critical point where Big Brother Tech is trying to achieve a total lock on information and declaring Thought Crimes. This site is a key front for helping ensure that you and I can vote and elect Government that truly represents us.
