you summed it up simply and concisely. When what you're selling is an illusion, you either lie or you don't sell it. And as to your first sentence, they compound the lie by accusing the opponent of being the liar.
If people would wake up enough to not just hear the noise but to think about what the noise consists of, they would be amazed at how much the liberal agenda is based on bullshit...misrepresentations (as in the video) and distortions and just plain lies galore.
You're right, you couldn't do it. Which shows how pathetic you are because Trump is barely beating a brain dead candidate right now. There's still a chance he could lose. He's not even remotely close to a good choice.
No, I couldn’t. I’m an unknown, as are you and I imagine the other posters here. Are you saying that you could? And just who is a good choice?

We have to have a starting point here. Do you think Trump is a good choice? Do you think it's an issue that he can't pull away from a brain dead opponent? If you answer yes to the first question and/or no to the second, then it's going to be impossible to discuss this with you.
My response was in response to this post. Again, name five. That should be simple if there are 200 million options.
As bad a candidate as Orange Man is, Dims are terrified that their incumbent candidate can’t defeat him, despite the MSM covering for Joe ever since he was elected. How could that be? To wit:
the wide open border, the economy, inflation, rampant crime, Joe’s dementia, etc…

I might have missed the key here, but what do you mean by a good choice? A good choice to beat Biden or a good choice for president? For my part, I wanted someone else to run against Biden because I thought someone else would have a better chance of beating him. But now that Trump's the guy, I have no problem supporting him because as far as I'm concerned, he did a great job as president. And with the global hornet's nest we have going on, I can't think of anyone I'd rather have.
Of course, I'm concerned that if he wins, our democracy will be trashed in favor of his dictatorship, while he drops nukes all over the place and helps Putin take over Europe and puts women in shackles, and worst of all, that he will have no interest in going to lunch with me.
I already named five. I need a baseline here. If you answer those questions a certain way, then it will be impossible to have the conversation. If that's the case, why spend hours arguing about it?
the dems are in complete disarray over whether to support Joe or find someone else. What a chaotic melee over in libland. It's too bad they don't believe in guns cause they would be killing each other off in droves, much to the betterment of our society.
Only a Joe Biden could create this kind of rift within his own party.
Har har, I couldn't care less whether those sheep split the flock and baa baa each other to death on that side of things, but it's too hard to resist mocking our local libnerds, who only recently were spouting similar words about the GOP. Kharma, baby. LMAO.

There was the same disarray 4 yrs ago. Nobody voted for Joe because he was Joe. They voted for him cuz he was someone who seemed like he could beat Trump. Same scenario now except people think Joe might croak any day now, and it is getting late in the cycle. Dems are bad at playing the game of politics as a group.
But has he created never-bidens and DINOs? Nope.

not a bad post but if you think there aren't scads of biden-created never-bidens, I think you've got a surprise coming up soon.
I disagree somewhat with why Biden was nominated. As opposed to those who support Trump so enthusiastically because he is non-political, Biden was nominated because he represented the mainstream democrat politics-as-usual zone of comfort, the talking head that the dem flock was most comfortable with simply because he was the most well-known as an entrenched politician; so they flocked to him. If Trump wasn't the opposition, they still would have nominated Biden, IMO.
I have more NA blood in me than 4 generations of Warrens do.
let me make sure I get your thrust here. YOU're criticizing
That isn't the laughable part. The laughable part is that you have the balls to posit what you did and contend that there is no plan other than to own the libs, when all that has been done the past almost four years has been to counteract everything that Trump had done or tried to do. You just exemplified this.
Please, dude, recognize the insanity and refuse to indulge in it any longer.
Doesn't it get old always lying about what was said and twisting it to support an agenda? Context matters. Putin didn't say that he supports Trump's "plan". What he said was that he supported ending the war in Ukraine. This is from Reuters just so you'll know I didn't run to a Trump biased source:
Putin, speaking at a news conference in Kazakhstan at the end of a regional security conference, commented after being asked about Trump's statements that he could end the Ukraine war swiftly if he won the White House race on Nov. 5.
"The fact that Mr Trump, as a presidential candidate, declares that he is ready and wants to stop the war in Ukraine, we take this completely seriously," Putin said.
"I am not, of course, familiar with possible proposals for how he plans to do this. This is the key question. But I have no doubt that he means it sincerely, and we support it (the idea of ending the war)."

pretty much the entire lib agenda is based on lies. As I and a wise man named @Archer2 indicated recently, when you're selling a lie, you lie to sell it.
I miss the version of you that would tell us when you were traveling and then post pics of where you went. That was before 2016 and this thread, though. It's crazy how much that election altered this board for the worst. It went from being Rolls Royce to being Daewoo.
Boy, did you open up a can of worms (not that you're wrong on seeing his pics). But your post is enlightening as an example of what are bigger issues. I would counter it is much more than "that election" as 2016 was not the cause but more of a reflection of changes on a much larger scale. And, it started well before the orange hitler was elected.
I didn't mean it to be that deep. Just saying that a lot of posters on both sides couldn't compartmentalize once 2016 hit. That lead to politics everywhere, good posters leaving, good posters becoming crazy and good threads almost ceasing to exist. Wasn't meant to be an indictment just on Trump. That election was definitely what caused the board to change, though. Politics was rarely discussed before then.
Depends on the opposition. Someone moderate would've required a very different dem candidate.
ETA: lol at you comparing anti-biden dem drama to the destruction of the gop since 2016.

but that's what I'm saying and I wish there was a way to prove it because I'm confident that I'm right. Given other opposition, the flock would have voted for Biden as long as the other candidates carried similar credentials. What is 'needed' has less to do with it than herd instinct.
"ETA: lol at you comparing anti-biden dem drama to the destruction of the gop since 2016."
Of course you laugh. Not much else you can do.
