I'm not saying Biden won't raise taxes. I'm saying there are people out there who vote for a candidate based on how it will affect them personally, as opposed to what is best for the country as a whole.

~lower taxes ~fewer illegal aliens ~better trade deals like the USMCA vs. the giant sucking sound of NAFTA ~regulation cuts/red tape rollback to make it easier for business to do business here, vs. moving their manufacturing overseas ~fighting back against China in their quest to take over the US via economic warfare....the intellectual property theft, the commandeering of markets by flooding our country with their cheaply made, and cheap shit, devastating our manufacturing base? We have seen the problem with this first hand, discovering that most of our medicines and PPE are from China, and can be cut off at will. That's a security threat, so when Trump is trying to return manufacturing to America, some believe that's actually good for America. There's other stuff, too, and then there's some things Trump did that I disagree with, that definitely did not improve the country, but you've got to believe that a significant portion of your countrymen believe that most of Trump's policies benefited America, and Americans. |

I really want to believe that, and I'm really trying, but it's tough when everything I see and hear is so polarized and partisan.

Stop watching/listening to mainstream media. All the media has done the past 5 years is spout "Orange Man Bad", twist everything Trump has said, and fed everyone with nothing but bullshit.

All that anger. All that in your face shouting.....Trump is a Russian agent! Muh Russian kuhlooooosian! And then it all fizzled out. We found out it was all a lie. Was there suddenly a huge apology tour by the media and others, to admit they were wrong? Was the MSM suddenly thankful to learn that our president was NOT, in fact, a Russian stooge? No. They just quietly dropped the matter and went back to.....but Trump's taxes! This right here should tell you that the MSM, Hollywood, and other societal influencers, aren't dealing straight with you. They're shaping narratives, and when one narrative falls apart, there's no apology, no retractions, just on to the next narrative. My assertion here is easy to check out. You remember the muh kuhlooooosian hysteria. You don't remember that massive sigh of relief, the massive apologies from all those reporters for being dead wrong because.....they're not there to give you the facts as they see them, they're there to feed you propaganda. |

I saw a good one today. I am aware that there are lunatics on both sides, but this is where fact checking is needed and not in the bias form it currently functions in.

Saying antifa was involved is a ***** move to cover their soon-to-be-jailed-if-not-already dumbasses.

His actions caught on video also support the idea that he was there to cause chaos, but I'm sure you didn't bother to watch it, as that would be detrimental to your desired position. It also matters not to me "why" he was there. If he was there illegally, he is just as guilty as everyone else there. In other words, this guy doesn't have a leg to stand on, and neither do you. |

Because it's not worth the effort, as shown just above. I provide you with a link, you dismiss it, despite the FACT the guy is BLM, AND he was ARRESTED AND CHARGED, so that means there is hard evidence he was there committing illegal acts. Even an idiot knows you have to stop banging your head against the wall to get the feel good.
