    Same. But half a billion to Walmart isn’t the same as half a billion to a company only worth 25 billion

    Can't get folks to acknowledge Biden is a buffoon. Acknowledging a private company did good by its employees? There was no government edict? Good luck.

    You Trumper you!

    Did we ever hear anything back from 57 on our alleged constant defense of Trump?

    Races arent won by winning the smart voters, you win elections by appealing to the dumb voters. Thus the paradise that is idiocracy we live in. There are smart people on both sides but the majority on both sides are politically dumb as a rock.

    57 & nscapi ...'2020 Field' thread, page 190. My post you quoted above was in reference to the conversation that was taking place in that thread. 57 threw his body in front of (D) criticism, per usual, and nscapi suggested that folks who say we have a choice between two buffoons are essentially shy Trump voters.

    it is a false equivalence

    as was the attempt to label both as "credibly accused" of sexual misbehavior toward women

    carry on

    there are all sorts of false equivalences that various posters have drawn between very poorly chosen one and some other person

    the reasons seem rather obvious to me

    I highly doubt that. I wont be surprised if the death count goes to 1-2 million.

    Worst financial quarter in American history. So much for economic jeebus. Obama is literally the last president in how long not to have a financial meltdown at the end of his term. The Trump crash of 2020, Housing meltdown at the end of GWB, meltdown in 88. I guess Poppa Bush didnt have a financial meltdown.

    Papa bush did the unthinkable and went against his word about taxes cause he looked at what was needed and did what was needed and they didn’t vote for him cause of that. Lol

    We lost one-third if our economy simply because

    we didn’t address our public health crisis.

    Show us a side-by-side on GDP reduction with the European countries that are praised here.

    This is pretty terrible logic. Its like saying the Trolley Problem could be solved if we addressed out lack of teleportation crisis that prevents us from teleporting everyone to safety.
