    Biden's plan for a second term includes:
    - raising taxes on millionaires and billionaires
    - breaking up monopolies
    - reducing junk fees from banks and airlines
    - further lowering the cost of prescription drugs
    - increasing worker protections
    - strengthening unions
    - capping the rate of rental price increases
    - battling corporate profiteering

    Gee, I wonder why the rich and powerful want him to step aside... 🤔🧐

    No kidding!
    What's really baffling is why the average American (the vast majority of us) would give up those things in favor of having a megalomaniac with no clear agenda run the whole damn show.   Very odd indeed. 
    I mean have you all watched Biden at all over this 4 years? Did you watch the debate? Have you seen the interviews since?

    Y’all liberals are blind to your own issues. Always just call out “whataboutism” instead of seeing the man crumbling before your eyes. 

    Oh come on man, you too?  You're  not MAGA.  This does not merit an response, bud.  You're better than this.

    This is not some grand scheme of rich democrats wanting Joe out cause he was going to tax them. He is unfit. Everyone saw it.  And he is going to lose…and we will all suffer for it.

    I was referring to the snarky "Y’all liberals are blind to your own issues."  
    First of all (and I've said this many times here), although I relate to people who identify as "liberal" far more than those who refer to themselves as "conservative", I don't use those terms to describe myself.  Some of my views are "liberal", some "moderate", and some are "conservative".  I base my opinions and ideas on what make the most sense to me using what I know, what I learn, critical thinking, and logic.  Simple terms like "liberal" and "conservative" just don't work for me.  I strive to be logical, sensible. 
    Secondly, what the hell are my "own issues"?  My health?  My personal finance situation?  I have no idea what you are talking about. 
    Thirdly, I have not blindly praised or excused Biden.  I've been outright critical of him at times.  Surely you're aware of that?  Well, you are now.

    And I hope you are wrong about Biden (or another Dem) losing to Trump.  Ask how my gut feels about all this.  Pretty shitty these days.  Yeah, I'm plenty aware of what's at stake.  I ONLY want Trump to lose.  I don't care how that happens.  That is priority NUMBER ONE.  And it's not my fault or anyone else's here if Trump does win.

    And look, there's just way too much personal attack bullshit happening on these threads lately.  Let's all cut it the fuck out, including me.

    For 95% of the posters here. If you don’t agree that orange man bad, you’re wrong. If you aren’t a far left liberal, you’re MAGA.

    Elon Musk, once heralded as the greatest inventor of all time here, now Teslas suck and he’s a terrible person.

    Thats why the majority of people can’t stand liberals. That’s why centrist Democrats and Independents are abandoning them and voting for Trump.

    and they still can't spell his fucking name right

    Comperatore’s name was misspelled on his firefighter jacket, and Comperatore chose to keep it as:  Compertore 

    Probably so you can't find his trash Twitter feed

    Ok then please enlighten me on what good qualities he possesses that would make me want to stand besides him
    like you & a couple of others here are! Because under him I’ll have to pay more on taxes I might have to change my name from Jose to Joe just so I don’t get rounded up and thrown into a camp! Tell me what policies would benefit me & my family under P25 or is it only for the white folks only?

    You really have a lot of hate inside you bro. You’re paying way more in gas and food but that doesn’t matter? 

    Wasn’t Trump President for 4 years? I paid less taxes then. You know the shit he’s going to do and you know no one is going to tell him what to do. The Heritage thing has been proposing their nonsense since 1980. Some of the stuff he’s said he’s gonna do. Secure border, deport illegals. Drill more oil and gas. Strengthen military. You really think he’s going to end Social Security? Ban porn and divorce? C’mon.

    Find some peace. Seems like you find every liberal piece of propaganda  that you can to make you angry. People are hurting under Biden’s policies. That’s why he’s losing.

    When did Trump say his platform was the Heritage P25 proposal? Why didn’t he do it in 2016? They’ve had their agenda since 1980, Reagan or the Bush’s never followed it.  One thing you know is no one is pushing their agenda on Trump.

    There’s a reason those countries are happier and it’s not the tax rate. I’ve been to Iceland twice, Norway and Switzerland plus most of Europe over the last 5-6 years. I’ll be in Italy and Germany next week. It’s hard to explain the difference, but if you’ve spent time there you know. It’s really a different quality of people in my opinion.
