Has anyone ever so unqualified (other than genitals and “race,” the only current Democrat qualifications for public office) occupied the Vice President’s position…yet is so assured of taking “Sleepy Joe’s” place real soon? (BTW, has he been deemed incompetent yet? Just asking for a friend…)
Dan Quayle.
The only thing your president had going for him was a mildly-successful reality show.
Bob, you are what is wrong with America.
You place party above country.
Not hardly, Larry. I was one of the 3% of Indiana Republicans in November who split their ticket and voted for Trump and Rainwater, rather than Holcomb. And in our last town election, I voted for the Democrat for a town council seat rather than the sitting Republican who was running for re-election because I felt had been too wishy-washy on important issues to our town. I thought the Democrat (a woman, by the way, for those of you possessed with gender) would do a better job than the white male Republican running for re-election to that seat. (Sorry to disappoint you with those revelations.)
What’s wrong with our country are people who judge personality (Trump’s was admittedly caustic, to say the least!) rather than accomplishments and are subsequently bamboozled by BS rather than substance. Pollster George Barna came up with results that he said were personally shocking after the 2016 election. He reported that a whopping 91% of persons identifying themselves as Christian conservatives voted for Trump in 2016 largely because they didn’t like Hillary Clinton. But in 2020, that same group went 99% for Trump based on his accomplishments over the last 4 years, as voting should be (accomplishments, rather than BS.) Barna said, “…that [99%] was the most enthusiastic and united group of votes received from the 80 different segments of the population we studied…and that includes Democrats, Republicans, women, liberals, blacks, conservatives…no other voting bloc has rallied behind a candidate with so much solidarity.” (Quote from the Barna report, not my interpretation of it.)
Bob.
You’re lecturing us about voting on accomplishments and substance and you voted for Don Rainwater, a guy who never held office before, who said he’d eliminate 47% of the state of Indiana’s tax revenue stream without identifying what was going to be cut, and had no support except among the angry anti-maskers? He was uniquely unsuited to hold the office he ran for.
I’m an evangelical Christian and I find the support of Trump baffling. I personally think it’s because they feel they have no other option, but I think they will come to regret their alliance with Trump. He used Christians and their worship of Trump is going to lead to a clear-out of their pews. You think Europe is an atheist country? That’s what America will look like in 20 years because the youth of the Church see the hypocrisy and they’re not going to stand for it.
