I'd forgotten just how good he was until I watched this:

What a pleasant contrast. Imagine that, presidential leadership
without threats, ridicule, childish insults and inarticulate
muttering. Reagan got a lot accomplished that way, by uniting people
and reaching consensus on what needed to be done. What a pleasant
contrast.

Are you taking over?

Taking over what? Am I the only conservative on this group that has a
problem with presidential lying, threats, ridicule, childish insults
and inarticulate muttering? Be careful what you ask for.


If you had had to put up with the total resistance of the Democrats in Congress,
who give not a **** for this country, what frame of mind would you be in? For
one who has seen everything he tries to do thwarted by Pelosi and Schumer only
because the president is Donald Trump, I think he's done pretty damn well. Trump
was never given a chance to 'unite and reach consensus'. He was facing a
'resist' movement before he took the oath.

Pelosi is holding up another aid package. Why? Because Trump wants it. Amen.
**** 'em, I say. And Trump agrees. I don't blame him.

Much of that resistance is because of the way he comports himself,
constantly playing to his base instead oy trying to build grass roots
consensus. It's called leadership, and the lack of it will be his
downfall.


His leadership wants, but Nancy and Chuck, seem to be working for the DNC
and a single party system. Not looking at what is good for the country.
As to Biden, I think he lacks any major thinking power, and I disliked
Kamala when she was the state AG. Seemed to be in the bottom 4 of all the
AG?s. Her tough on crime seemed to **** off a lot of Blacks here. Going
for major time, for minor crimes. Appease the tough on crime group, and no
consideration of crime or results, also, when they had Proposition 8, the
one man one women description of marriage, she refused to defend it in the
Supreme Court. Her job was to represent the people of the state of
California, not her personal viewpoint. Should have been disbarred for
that since she did not recuse herself. I did not vote for Prop 8, but the
majority did. Just like any attorney, defend your client, even if you hate
the *******.


Didn't she sleep around to bolster her career?


Does not matter. She and Biden claim she overcame being black to get an
education. Her mom is a multi PhD, and she went to mostly private schools.
She claims the republicans were bad for stopping forced busing. One of
the worst things we did to minorities. Instead of spend the money on
better teachers in their neighborhoods, and better schools, they moved them
to schools where they were at least a year behind in knowledge.
