    1. This is not the Republican Party..it’s the cult of trump. Don’t confuse the two. Real republicans are voting for Biden.

    2. Comrade
      TragicArchAngel, you are probably not very old, so here is some info. *_Democrats_* are intrinsically evil and the children of Satan. They hate the coun try and everything it stands for and they workj directly with the CCP. *_Republicans_* are the greatest cowards till date, who will never stop any crime out of fear for themselves. They bow to democrats in fear and feel subdued.

    3. *Obama Unwittingly Credits Trump for Economic Recovery*
      Aug 21, 2020 https://www.westernjournal.com/obama-unwittingly-credits-trump-economic-recovery/

      *One of Barack Obama’s apparent points of frustration has been President Donald Trump taking full credit for overseeing the strongest U.S. economy in decades.*

      However, during his remarks at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday night, the 44th president, perhaps unwittingly, opened the door for his successor to take full credit for the economy going into the November election.

      Before the COVID-19 outbreak, the United States was enjoying its lowest unemployment rate in 50 years (3.5 percent), along with strong economic and wage growth.

      In fact, wages were growing the fastest for the lowest earners and at a rate not seen in over a decade thanks to the tight labor market, The Washington Post reported in January.

      The unemployment rate is poised to drop remarkably from a high of 14.7 percent in April into single digits this month, and 9.1 million jobs were added from May through July.

    1. They have no decency or honor AND their word is good for nothing..they prove it over and over and Dems still think they can play nice with these people.

  1. Republicans have no decency… Don’t waste your time on trying to convince people that despise you to begin with to do what’s right.

    1. Nuking hurricanes is not useless. It is called science. The trick is to wait for it to get directly over communist Cuba.

    2. Booker suppressed the fact the FBI found out Justice Kavanaugh was on an out of state summer study when Ford had her drunken makeout with a completely different guy. And he’s the left’s moral center??? Hahaha!!

  2. The more you appeal to a bullies sense of decency is the more you get punched in the face. Retaliate and they will learn there are repercussions to messing with you.

    1. How many times did the European powers try to appeal to Hitler?Many times.Hitler made excuses to go to War because he always wanted War

  3. And we wonder Democrats lose. We need to grow a set. Republicans have no decency. Money in politics needs to go.

    1. @Cosmo you are right, especially since politicians of any party have no decency. Why does anybody keep expecting it?

  4. This administration and the Republicans in Congress don’t have a modicum of decency. The GOP has become a “tool” for Trump.

    1. @Randy Couch Not a COP IN SIGHT
      Top 10 most dangerous jobs in America in 2017
      (1) Logging workers:
      (2) Fishermen:
      (3) Aircraft pilots:
      (4) Roofers:
      (5) Garbage collectors:
      (6) Structural Iron and Steel workers:
      (7) Truck drivers:
      (8) Farmers and ranchers:
      (9) Construction workers:
      (10) Grounds maintenance/Landscaping:
      NOTICE NO COPS
      FAKE DANGER

    2. @Randy Couch No, child, No. You are way off base. When was the last time our nation has seen protests and in origin Police killings and presidential misconduct as being sources for the discontent? When was the crime rate accelerating as is now? When was 204,040 deaths a small matter? In 4 Wars, 4 Wars none died as now, yet now it is a virus doing the killing and an ignorant president busy creating chaos instead of working to heal the people. Why is he afraid of doing the right thing? Why does he want civil war? Why does he hate our country? Why do you hang onto him when you know he is nothing but lies upon lies upon more lies and deception? Why? What good is created by lies?

    1. I suspect tRump and Barr have secret contact with right wing in gov., military, police, and militia to use force to stay in office because he knows he is not going to win!
      He is fine with a civil war that dissolves the nation!
      He would be the guy who destroyed his enemies!

    1. @Parrot Lover it’s kind of sad, actually, because the ‘message’ seems to be that most internet comment sections might as well be random sounds, but instead of raising the quality of discourse, they drag it even further down.

      Spread the love.

    2. @B W how does it feel to be so dumb, its right in your face, everything they said trump did, they did, but you dont know how to search to see the truth

    1. @Patrick Here’s a history lesson for you. This all is possible because Dems cheat. In 2014, when Democrat Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid could not win any other way, he cheated & changed established precedent to a simple majority. Didn’t hear you complaining then about “decency”. Mitch McConnell told him then, he’d be sorry. Guess y’all are sorry now, but you have no one to blame but your own party. What comes around goes around. 😆

    2. Booker is naive. Appealing to their sense of decency would be possible if Republican senators had it to begin with.

    1. we don’t need appeals to decency, and we don’t need to play hardball, we need to open a can of whoopass and break a few noses (figuratively). How? htf would I know? Constituent pressure I guess

    2. @Lars Jones if the Dems do a clean sweep of elected bodies they could grant statehood to puerto rico and DC which would ensure a grip on the senate for decades maybe even split california in to 2 or more states.

  5. When the Hitler Clone is taken down and we hold the new Nuremberg Trials all the Kings Men will pay the price. Do not count on the GOP they will go down also.

  6. Trump knows he will lose in November, so he wants to appeal the result in court. You need to vote so that there are no doubts.

  7. The Republicans realized a while ago that if they have no morals, no decency, no truth, no shame, or duty to fairness that they could get away with murder.

    At least in the short term.
