I still stand by my comment. Same thing, dems have tried to get Trump out of office before he was even inogurated. Then after becoming president they have done everything they can through the courts to get him ousted.

Of course you do. Followed by the standard right-wing talking points. "Donny the victim". The Dems hate him because "only he" can fix all that's wrong. Blah blah blah

Your response makes no sense. It doesn't address the point in the post you are responding to at all. It goes off into some sort of parallel universe. If you are going to create a straw man, it is at least best to use quality straw.

"The media meme that former vice president Joe Biden is a gaffe machine, combined with President Trump’s preposterous projection questioning Biden’s acuity, might lead one (even some on the Biden campaign) to conclude he should interact with reporters as infrequently as possible. That is generally good advice for a front-runner, which he surely is. However, after a speech Tuesday on racial inequality, Biden took questions and gave lengthy answers. It was in some ways a revelation.

First, Biden is good at this. He can give long, meaty answers without stumbling. He voices the right amount of disgust and anger at Trump for not pressing Russian President Vladimir Putin on bounties for U.S. troops in Afghanistan, for dividing the country on race, for creating scenes of violence for campaign ads and for botching the coronavirus response. Biden is nimble when it comes to pointing out Trump’s alienation from his own party. (Digging at Trump’s decision to abandon a convention in Jacksonville, Biden wisecracked: “Even the Republicans down there” figured out it would not work.)" WP

Old Joe is going to eat the Orange dipshit's lunch at the debates.

It's not preposterous. It's spot on.

Heck, I saw it in early stages back in the 2008 election. I just thought he was severely ignorant of US history, but maybe it was just the first signs of his brain checking out. This is what I'm talking about - in his own words:

P.S., it's so nice having an ignore list

Looks like you're quoting yourself.

BTW, I'm on another site I've been on since 2002. They have an "ignore" feature. Nobody uses it any more because it speaks to the lack of self control of the person putting people on ignore - their inability to not respond to someone they don't want to respond to. They really cleaned up that site (language, ad-hom attacks, etc. can get you banned and, eventually, permabanned). So putting someone on ignore speaks to you rather than the person you are ignoring. It demonstrates cowardice and, basically, this:

November is going to be very tough on your delicate psyche.

And your arrogant babbling nitwit is "sharp as a tack"?
I could refer to a number of psychologists, including his niece, as reference.
