Well folks unfortunately you better say hi to 4 more years of Trump. Biden's gonna get eaten alive

-7 ( +1 / -8 )

With a guy like presidential candidate Joe "I don't work for you" Biden on track to becoming the leader of the democrat party this summer, the world has a front row seat to witness the destruction of an American political party.

As opposed to Donny having strengthened the Republican Party? Hahahaha!

Don't you think immigrants should stay out of US politics?

that he'll take him outside and "slap him in the face."

as opposed to say Id like to "punch him in the face" then saying if his supporter do it hell pay the legal fees, then the countless number of fights breaking out at Trump rallies. Trump supporters then call out Biden for his violence. hypocrisy much!? LMFAO

Odd that someone could get hammered with over three million more votes than Donny. Sounds “logic.”

So, you deplorable think it’s great that Donny punches back because he only does it via Twitter and not face-to-face. You people are actually trying to sell us this. Too bad for you that we’re not as ignorant as Donny’s fan bois.

Trump did not get in a voters face and cursed at them, nothing in the video. Stay focused. Biden did 3-4 times and half of those times what he said was so incoherent.

"get them out of here, you know I want to punch them in the face"

”Look at. that face...Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!”

Had no idea, she was a voter.

Weak attempts on the part of Donny’s boot licker’s to try an distinguish Donny’s utterly inappropriate behavior and Biden’s allegedly inappropriate behavior.

no trumps says things, because he wants to say them, Biden says things because he’s just lost and that’s more evident with each passing day

The imbeciles that support the fascist dictator

Obama left office already.

wannabe use the following “logic”: It’s completely okay to get into people’s faces via the internet, but not in real life.

If it’s the first time, I get it, but this keeps happening over and over again with this guy, he’s going to get shellacked by Trump and I can’t wait!

NBC is reporting that "AR-14" Biden also told the auto worker whom he was trying to get his vote that he'll take him outside and "slap him in the face."

That says more about the people who voted for him

Yeah, their tired of the Progressive identity, race crap.

The fact that someone like Trump, a corrupt businessman and someone devoid of morals can still win support in that party, says more about that party.

Well, in that case then he’s a great corrupt businessman to have succeeded in beating the corrupt, moral-less Washington establishment parties

 

ROFL, Democrats have been lobbying for tax cuts for a long time

https://www.washingtonpost.com/outlook/democrats-say-they-wont-raise-middle-class-taxes-but-they-should/2020/01/08/5ec699b4-2044-11ea-a153-dce4b94e4249_story.html

Yeah, ok, uh-Huh....been on this Earth a very long time and cutting taxes is equal to Republican wanting Obamacare or single payer. Lol

Dems are about to choose a soon to be octogenarian with fast fading mental capacities in a desperate attempt to grab power

Elections are, by definition, power grabs.

and implement their policies of economic mishandling, border chaos, misandry against men, racism against whites, exclusionary identity politics, social re-engineering, baby slaughter up to 40 weeks, etc.

You’d have a point if any of this were true, but it’s so far from reality that it might as well be in a different universe.

I cannot see the U.S. electorate supporting this in 2020 over President Trump's spectacular economic success and common sense approach to social issues.

This is great news: now Bidens mental condition will further deteriorate 

Even if it does, won't fall to Donny's level.

and make it easier for Trump to dominate

ROFL, Donny might find space rockets in the revolutionary war next, he is still trying to figure out their 'oranges'

Dude has some issues mentally,

Donny for sure, he has many!!!

Biden is showing signs of dementia.

Donny's way past that, he is into the paranoia stage!!!

Remembering Trump’s campaign is useful when thinking about Biden.

Remember this about Fiorina?

”Look at. that face...Would anyone vote for that? Can you imagine that, the face of our next president?!”

What a lowlife.

8 ( +8 / -0 )

The Dem/Media establishment/swamp dwellers have derailed Bernie Sanders again, in favor of an increasingly incompetent looking Joe Biden. They don't care about Biden's fast fading mental health and cognitive abilities as long as they can prop him up long enough to help them grab power.

-4 ( +1 / -5 )

Beating 17 Republicans and established ones at that and then beating in established former first lady, I would beg to differ.

That says more about the people who voted for him and the type of agenda he espoused !! Nothing to do with courage.

Republicans said they’re going to keep trump in line, no they did not and no they could not.

The fact that someone like Trump, a corrupt businessman and someone devoid of morals can still win support in that party, says more about that party.

 Democrats never heard of a thing which is called tax cuts, never would’ve thought about corporate tax cut rates, never thought about injecting the private sector and supporting small businesses and deregulations. 

ROFL, Democrats have been lobbying for tax cuts for a long time, just takes a bit of reading and intelligence to realize that.

this is great news: now Bidens mental condition will further deteriorate as we get closer to the debates and make it easier for Trump to dominate. Dude has some issues mentally, clearly not all there. Berns is a loon but seems his facilities are still intact whilst Biden is showing signs of dementia.

No one doubts that Donny lacks courage,

Beating 17 Republicans and established ones at that and then beating in established former first lady, I would beg to differ.

he just gets others to do the attacks for him.

Trump crush the entire Republican establishment party and Hillary by himself and then the Republicans said they’re going to keep trump in line, no they did not and no they could not.

The right wing might lack in thinking ability, but violence is like second nature to them

Lacking?? Democrats never heard of a thing which is called tax cuts, never would’ve thought about corporate tax cut rates, never thought about injecting the private sector and supporting small businesses and deregulations. If Democrats start like that, they would win single-handedly and silently general elections all the time.

I love it! But back to the topic, Trump doesn’t go and just attack people in a crowd, this is Biden’s third or fourth time.

no he just gets his supporters to do it for him. Arguing with somebody and actually assaulting them are very different things. when have you seen fights break out at Biden rallies!?

Good lord! Smh. Why can’t conservatives get their heads out of the bubble and stop trying to make our country into a fascist paradise?

Profanity is not the real issue. But presidential candidate Biden telling a potential voter, "I don't work for you" is a much, much bigger concern

Not quite as big a concern as immigrants trying to interject themselves into US politics instead of going back to their countries of origin and making them better places, don’t you think, Tex?

1 ( +3 / -2 )

True. He can just retweet doctored videos going round the net.

Not doctored, but watching the video and seeing how Biden stumbles like that would make me hold my vote for a guy like that.

The White House retweeted a doctored video from infowars in the past. It’s easier and quicker than doing it yourself.

Oh stop! Liberals have been distorting in taking trumps words out of context, and all of a sudden liberals are having a meltdown, give me a break. Lol

He swore in the face of a taxpaying citizen, the person he's supposed to serve.

He doesn’t have to alter anything, just sit at a Biden rally for two minutes, that would get you up and out of your seat and run for the exit door

Shaking down nation's to do so? Flat out lying?

What?

I was under the impression some Trump supporters said all's fair come election time. 

LOL

I felt the same after leaving seeing the liberals take over.

-9 ( +1 / -10 )

Because he's a coward.

He should be. Why on Earth would you want to attack a voter, I wouldn’t, I’m too chicken to do that. Biden on the other hand has NO excuse, because she’s in a rapid mental decline, he just can’t help himself, half of the time he doesn’t know where he’s at and blurts incoherent things every single time. I do agree Trump says think sometimes that I cringe worthy sometimes after Mark, but he says things because he believes them and he says them on purpose, buying is not doing that, buying is just saying stuff because he’s just not all there anymore.

He only attacks people on Twitter or if he's in front of an adoring MAGA mob at a rally.

And?

-9 ( +2 / -11 )

Biden is literally disintegrating, at this stage he is a walking corpse, it is clear he is suffering from cognitive degeneration. The Democrats are just handing re-election to Trump on silver platter.

Sanders is the only candidate who has the energy and intelligence to know what needs to be done to help working-class Americans, women and minorities push back against the toxic contagion of right-wing ideology that has too long led and misguided them down the perverse path to self-harm at the ballot-box. Apart from his terrible past record representing the interests of the privileged and the military-industrial complex, grandpa Biden is mentally coming apart at the seams before our very eyes and, if he becomes the anointed one, Trump can only lose if he defeats himself before November, or if the election, as others have mentioned, turns out to be a referendum on the 4 years of living derangedly while Trump golfed.

@willibHave the D's been ilegally been warmongering and destryoing countries?

If I understand the point I think you might be suggesting your media sources have been reporting Republican Bush had no connection to the Iraq and Afghanistan invasions. And that right now Republican Trump has no connections to the US military being in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and other places around the globe.

Err... yes to all of the above. Interesting you bring that topic up.

And, what concerns me even more: Have the D's been ilegally been warmongering and destryoing countries? Yes, they have. And the only D candidate who addresses that gets the Trump treatment. Go figure!

I don't know why the media keep putting the adjective "democratic" in front of the noun "socialist" when referring to Senator Sanders. A socialist is a socialist, which is only one step away from being a communist, which Senator Sanders pretty much is, if you look at his collective works.

Not that former Vice President Biden is much better with all the corruption that lays in his wake.

I desperately want someone other than President Trump to become president, but the Democratic Party has offered no one that can garner the support needed to do so.

-9 ( +1 / -10 )

Do you think Biden will tell his followers to check out a non-existent sex tape featuring the man he swore at to really get at him? Maybe track down a photo of his wife and post it on Twitter?

You know, telling it like it is and not taking any crap. Isn’t that what presidential candidates do?

"'... Joe Biden is going to be the Democratic nominee,' Priorities USA Chairman Guy Cecil said on Twitter..."

The GOP doesn't get how mad everyone, including many Republicans, are about Trump.

Biden was the only candidate who could beat Trump and he. Sanders was going to beat Trump, regardless of what the NE and West coasties believed. The rest of the country doesn't want a democratic-socialist.

Dems need to get some 50-something people into key positions and start working their succession plans so we aren't stuck choosing another old white guy over 60 as President after 1-term Joe is done.

In a Jerry Bruckheimer movie, I’m sure.

Trump, both in the EC and the popular vote.

ROFL! Impossible

-7 ( +2 / -9 )

No, Trump’s words were taken out of context, let’s look at the entire quote.

*"When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best," Trump said. "They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."*

Growing up half of my life in LA, it’s not that far fetched and we are not talking about the Mexican-Americans that have lived in the States for 2-3 generation that are law-abiding, hard working and deep moral and religious ethics. Look at the crime stats in Mexico, it’s off the charts. I know liberals want to bury their head in the sand, for them the only thing they want or need are votes and that’s all.

But as far as Trump addressing a voter to their face, he’s never done that. Now I see what they make sure Biden’s rallies are kept under 20 minutes, explains a lot.

You don't like swearing?

Neither do I.

What's your stance on a political candidate who encourages supporters at a rally to 'knock the crap out of' protesters? And promising to pay their legal fees when they get arrested for assault?

Personally I find that a whole lot worse than one-on-one verbal sparring.

OK, then. You agree that Trump is a menace to the planet but that Biden is a menace to himself and his party. I'll take the latter. How about you?

@The democrats will probably get the Presidency back in 2024.

Not as long as I'm living the US just simply can't afford it anymore. Not that I'm just as glad for the Republicans, but let's face it, historically the US has done much better world wide where it counts the most. If the US was to pull out of the world, which is impossible but if, then a Democratic party would be the best bet to roll. Truth be told, they are both corrupted and dirty, but hey the one's who don't vote or cast blind votes are to blame. To many liars, err sorry lawyers in politics is bad. Lawyers should be kept in document reading, crossing the t' and dotting the i's not making or deciding policy.

Trump does not go to an individual voter and curses them out.

Biden has a much better chance at beating Trump than Bernie does.

Better, but slim.

and I'll support anybody who will get Trump out of office.

Probsbly not this cycle, but if Democrats continue on this crazy trajectory of self mutilation, they might not even make it I’m 2024

He's a menace to the country and to the world.

Biden is more of menace to the Democrats and to himself

So, go Biden!

I agree, go Biden!

Can't believe a Trump supporter is squeamish about foul language.

The difference is Trump attacks the media justifiably in my opinion and occasionally uses foul language towards them, Trump does not go to an individual voter and curses them out.
