THE CRAZIEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN US POLITICS

[Doc Dutch]

Libs don't care, they are literally consumed by madness.

Literally? That's a big word for you. Do you understand what it means? If by "Libs" you mean all those who voted for Hillary, I disagree that 65,853,514 Americans are "literally consumed by madness". Please explain as best you can.

It appears to have started out as a game and encouraged by the forum to increase traffic. This forum is unique in allowing multiple accounts.

Why people do it is a good question. There are multiple answers and some are purely up to the individual. Common ones seem to be to flood a thread with the same opinion making it appear to be multiple people agreeing. It's using peer pressure to push an opinion. It's also a form of virtual masturabtion where some person like anatta will post something then almost immediately be seconded by his sock puppet dukkha giving a reader the impression that at least two people agree. Someone like Mason also does this.

Another use would be to attack. A person posts something then is immediately hit with multiple attacks, usually personal attacks, which might dissuade that poster from reasserting their viewpoint. What they don't know is that all of those attacks were from a single asshole.

Thank you very much for explaining "sock puppets" to me so thoroughly. Now I geddit !

The man is literally kept in a basement and refuses to campaign or do any interviews. What more proof do you need that he is mentally incapacitated?

While I do believe Biden is succumbing to advanced age like any person his age (77 years compared to Trump's 74) I strongly doubt he's being "literally kept in a basement". There's no need for him to campaign when Trump has both mismanaged the COVID crisis and is so wonderful at sticking his own feet in his own mouth.

In short, Biden is simply letting Trump win the election for Biden.

My real fear is that Biden's handlers choose a truly radical Leftist as his VP choice and then (assuming he's elected) once in office Biden resigns due to a sudden case of Alzheimer's or whatever leaving his VP pick the President, which was their plan all along. He, she, it, then embarks on a binge of radical Leftist crazy to "transform America" like never seen before.

I'm so terrified!

Who would scare you the most? Harris seems to be the leading candidate for the slot.

Here's something to remember: Being President isn't being King. Congress has the main powers. If the Republicans retain the Senate, then the BS would stop there. Biden could choose Bernie to be his VP and, after he left, he could pick AOC and they couldn't pass a single bill the Senate didn't pass to them. Two years later, the voters would flip the House to Republicans. Life in America goes on as usual.

Karen Bass of the ones on the 'short list.' She would be a Chavez or Castro as President. I wouldn't put it past her to stage a coup to become a dictator. That is a woman on a mission, and her mission is turn the US into a shithole like Cuba or Venezuela.

She'd no more stage a coup than Trump will....but she is free to try. It'd be a great Kodak moment!

lol.......... If he was out campaigning you would bitch about that as well.........

Step up your game, if you can...........

He could be a man and go on Fox News Sunday. Trump is going on, taking the heat and questions.

Because Wallace is pretty fair and balanced. He asks both sides hard questions.

If he goes on CNN/MSNBC he is given questions in advanced, and lobbed softballs.

I liked Sam Donaldson too.

I like both. Wallace sure made Trump sweat during his interview.
