I mean, they had a reasonable shot at overturning the election. Just a few people did the right thing to stop it, but it could have been bad. Also, the indictments don't mean shit if he's reelected. What do you think happens to this country if he's found guilty and then pardons himself?

The different "old idiot" isn't a fascist. You got any other bullshit we can deal with to make it clear trump is a serious threat?

I’ll reply to you but this also applies to the other idiots, I think trump is a clown, the post I replied to was saying that person was being hyperbolic about democracy being lost if he’s elected, that’s not praise for Trump that’s me calling out that person for saying shit that’s gonna happen in the future like they magically know it’s absolutely going to happen because they hate Trump

I also never said anywhere the other old idiot was a fascist, just that he’s another old idiot

So it’s clear to you Trump is a moron, Biden also a moron, it’s 2 steaming piles of shit one is just less stinky (Biden)

What is clear is that you are lumping Trump and Biden in the same category. That does read in your earlier comments as if you think they are the same in all ways. No, neither are really that great, but one is substantially better than the other.

Ya that’s true I do lump them in the same category all politicians are scumbags but you are right Trump is ultra shit compared to Biden
