    We need to better educate Americans as well. Nobody has said otherwise.

    Also, I didn't say it started on October 7th, but it certainly ratcheted up.

    And Israel should have probably been doing as I proposed sooner as well, IMO. The US should have been doing so in Afghanistan and Iraq.

    That is what the policy should be, IMO. That should be the main goal of all government.

    Educate and strengthen the population so they are capable of replacing corrupt leaders and governments before they get too powerful.

    'Betrayal of Labor': Biden Nominates Ex-Trump Official to Amtrak Board

    "This appointment reads less like an oversight and more like a slap in the face to those who championed worker safety and stronger regulations," said Railroad Workers United.

    If Biden's defense of democracy is to hire Ex-Trump officials. It looks to me, like democracy is already in trouble.

    As usual, Road Ratt doesn't understand the First Amendment. Free speech is not exempt from criticism.

    You are aware that condemning someones speech is not the same as violating someones 1st amendment right, right?

    I mean, the two are literally not the same thing.

    You have the right to say what you want, the *GOVERNMENT* can't take that away. Your speech can be condemned and your speech can cause you to lose your job/ livelihood, and you can suffer consequences from it...but the government can't stop you from saying it.

    You can suffer consequences from your words.

    Even more so, nothing like discriminating against people based on disabilities while *ignoring* your own guys significantly worse speaking ability.

    This is just cognitive dissonance. Obviously you don’t like Trump for many reasons, which is fine, but to just blurt out something so patently false shows willful ignorance. Biden could be the best guy in the world and Trump the worst, it wouldn’t change the fact that Biden is senile and can barely slur his way through basic sentences, and Trump simply does not have that problem, no matter how bad he may be.

    Why is the most basic honesty so hard for people? If Trump claimed the sky is blue you would twist yourselves into pretzels and wreath with disgust trying to disprove it.

    Just take the L on the senility topic and move on to legitimate criticisms of Trump, of which there are plenty.

    I voted for Joe last time but am thinking of not voting for either this time. I do agree that Joes in no shape to really be a strong President and hope that during the dem convention someone else will rise to a vote? Trump would lose to any dem.

    No other Democrat is going to jump up at the convention after all the primaries and get nominated. You can vote for one old guy who supports democracy and civil rights and has wrong positions on some issues or you can vote for an old guy who wants to be a dictator, abolish independent judiciary, end civil service and overturn civil rights gains.

    I prefer the anti war songs of the 60's and 70's - they were easier to understand.
