    I hate to have his self-admitted mental illness(es) used as a reason not to support him. BUT -- he is not being treated for them, so that is a legitimate reason, IMO, not to vote for him. It would be different if he was actually under treatment and wasn't still exhibiting symptoms.

    The FBI is fully aware of this forum, Stevie.

    BTW, if you think your PMs are secret, you're a bigger dumbass than I initially thought.

    Being mentally ill doesn't make him a lesser human being, just unqualified to lead Americans.

    However, since Americans can elect their leaders, they are free to vote for a brain-damaged, mentally ill, abusive abortionist as the representative of their values.

    My daughter and son in law are both die hard liberal democrats.

    Neither of them plan on voting for Biden due to his very obvious cognitive decline since taking office. Thankfully, neither one plans on voting for Harris or Newsom, either...

    Don't worry, it won't take the idiot libs here too long to start raking you over the coals. To them, anyone who didn't vote for Biden is a Trump supporter...

    On the contrary I feel the same as the left when it comes to Trump. Sadly I voted for him 1st time but that was an anti-Hillary vote.

    I don't vote for brain-damaged idiots, Democrats or Trumpers, Stevie. Who do you vote for and why?

    You're free to believe that in the age of nanobots and mini-drones, Stevie. Anything that helps you sleep better at night. LOL

    You've already walked back a lot of your own posts, dumbass.

    That's how evolution works.
    First we make our world unlivable.
    Then we stop being alive.
    It all works out in the end if ending suffering is the goal.
    It just takes a while.

    By the way, I look at your picture of the two assholes--and all I can think of is a pair of shattered mandibles at the end of a couple of big left hooks.
    It's only a thought, but it's mildly comforting.

    Bet you'll learn something different if the choices on election day 2024 are Biden vs Trump, just like a lot of (R)s held their noses and voted for #TRE45ON because they couldn't in good conscience (or bad) vote for Hillary or any other (D).

    All things considered, if I like a candidate and what he/she stands for, and it comes out that they are being treated for a mental illness (OCD, depression, bipolar, etc.) and have successfully handled their life to that point, I would likely vote for them.
