Many of us enjoyed the drama.

Must of your posts on the Pat Kenny thread were you saying Trump shouldn't be discussed on the show.

Surely if you were just enjoying the drama, you'd have wanted it to be covered even more.

Are you following my posts ? It's flattering actually.

It was quite memorable for someone to be so insistent that Pat not highlight Trump's shortcomings so much on his current affairs show.
It seemed bizarre at the time, the last few months here have explained it.

That appears to be the aim, yes.

Here's an AP piece from when he was on the campaign trail which outlines his approach: Biden criminal justice plan reverses part of 1994 crime bill

There's considerably more details in his manifesto as per his campaign site here: The Biden Plan For Strengthening America’s Commitment To Justice

Aha see! Democrats letting criminals run a mock and destroy society yet again!

This might sound like I'm joking, but it is 100% guaranteed to be what the same falsely people bringing up the 1994 crime bill will immediately turn to if Biden works to undo that bill.

If the last four years have taught us anything, it is that these people deserve to be mocked and ignored, and not reasoned with sin r its not something they have even the vaguest interest in nor concern with.

The biggest myth is that Democrats are not left wing.

If it's a myth then you should have no problem making an original, fact-based argument busting said myth instead of silly one-liners.

Was this ever answered?

Lol what are you on about the last 12 years. Trump was only there for 4 years. The 8 years before that were good years with a great American President maybe the best one ever.

My comment wasn't a slight on Obama, moreso the decline of the Republican party when Palin got involved and got on the ticket for VP. This opened up a fringe radical element that has grown.

I'm late to notice this Rolex 'controversy'. Have to say it's all a bit silly. I don't subscribe to the idea of him or any politicians being down to earth and relatable to the average person. But what's he supposed to do, live in poverty? You could make the same point about his car, house, clothes etc. He's entitled to spend his earnings as he wants.

How will he manage to recover from these major scandals in his first week!

Impeach him now !

I wonder if any of the people complaining about Biden's watch had any problems with Trump's gaudy gold apartment (never mind him fleecing the taxpayers every time he went golfing etc). I doubt it somehow.

Sure at one stage we had someone boasting about this, saying this is what we should all aspire to be/have!

Marjorie Taylor Greene has already started proceedings.

She won't stand for such poor performance from her President.

Janet Yellen just confirmed as the first woman Secretary of the Treasury - 84-15

The usual suspects voted against her: Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Rand Paul etc. At this stage I wonder what their purpose is in Congress other than to object and vote against everything.

Water John

Was wondering was it the same list objecting each time? The simple question any Senator should ask themselves is, do I have any good reason that I don't want this person to serve in the Cabinet?

Yeah he brought back jobs, saw Dow rise massively, extended Bushes tax cuts, used Romneys health care plan.

Like Bill and Hillary Clinton the only reason Republicans hated Obama was because he wasn't Republican.

Not disagreeing with you there - but that's Republican thinking for you. Us v Them.

But hey, I'm sure it was all worth it to bring them central banking and debt liberalism.



"revolution" - That's cute.

I did say "maybe". It's the Democrat way of thinking for you. Us v Them.

Wonder if we will see a return of the correspondence dinner again now that the president can take a joke or two aimed in their direction.

It made me laugh to see one of the complaints about his exercise bike was the fact that it was internet-connected and therefore could potentially be hacked by Russians.

Now you suddenly care about Russian interference? There could have been a Russian camera crew in the Oval office 24/7 for the last four years and Trump supporters would still have denied there was anything strange was going on.

But Trumps phone which was obviously Internet connected (twitter anyone?) Was ok

I see 900,000 people filed for unemployment in Trump's final week in office. One last piece of #winning before he left.

Criticism of Biden’s Covid relief plan says it breaks promise of $2000 stimulus checks. -CNBC

Apparently instead of sending out a $2,000 cheque as promised they are sending $1400 and saying that combined with a previous $600 payment already sent, makes up the $2000 that was promised. Not a lot of money to us maybe but to people who have received next to no government support it very well could be. Drawing criticism from Aoc even. For what that's worth.

"..their election will put an end to that block in Washington of that 2,000 dollar stimulus cheque, that money that will go out the door immediately to people who are in real trouble.."

I've been very glad I live here, not there, since the pandemic started.

$1,400 + $600 = $2,000. You're welcome.

Water John

They expect it will be March before the stimulus package is agreed and cheques sent out. A sop to the GOP is that only those in need will get the cheques.

I hope Biden, at the earliest opportunity, wears a tan suit expressly to troll the talking heads.

While saluting a marine with coffee in one hand and a burger with dijon mustard in the other.

That's a trick I would pay to see.

I really want him to show up to the WHCA dinner in a tan suit. Set up the petition at change.org and I will sign it.

$600 + $2000 =$2600 was what was expected, not playing shell games with people during a pandemic.
