Must be because he admits he doesn't listen to others or learn from history. "However, Trump said, if he felt that he would glean information that could save even just one life, he would “make the call in two minutes.” “But I don’t see that happening,” he finished." make that 16,242.

I don't think you are very big on understanding the nuances of speech. It's so easy to take the worst meanings out of what someone says, if you want to.

Some of them even post here (we know who you are). Hi John, While I am no medical/mental health person, it is my observation that it also human nature to never want to admit that one ( you, me, everyone ) might just be wrong.

Says the guy who knows Joe Biden is corrupt and thinks anyone who doesn't agree is naive, because Joe Biden's son got a job. And yet you defend Trump against any allegation of dishonesty that can't be absolutely 100% proven that he knew a statement was false when he made it. The level of bias you use in making your judgements is truly staggering. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would disagree wth that as a blanket statement - I would say that they have used their position to leverage "favors" and probably abused their power in at least small ways that are probably overlooked.

The level of bias you use in making your judgements is truly staggering. Of course. In his world, anything Biden does is evidence of his total and complete corruption, and he should be removed from any public office. Anything Trump does is evidence that, well, both sides do it, so what's your problem? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
