    Has there ever been a president, czar, prime minister, any ruler, that hasn't lied? I don think so.

    I doubt there has ever been a human who hasn't lied. I don't expect perfection from anyone but there is a difference between imperfect and vile.

    That might be a lie.

    I agree to a certain extent. I mean it makes him look out of touch at least. I can’t stand the guy, but Trump knows what to do to appease people that want to SEE the president doing something even if it’s just performative.

    Biden is a good man that respect the presidency and American traditions. But sometimes the president has to be an entertainer. The last Dem that understood this aspect of the job was Bill Clinton.

    So you've never told a lie?...if you claim you haven't, that makes you a liar...if you admit that you have, that makes you a hypocrite.

    During World War II Franklin Delano Roosevelt sent loyal Japanese Americans to internment camps, their property confiscated. His administration did almost nothing for desperate Jews trying to flee occupied Europe, despite the pleas of Eleanor Roosevelt. While profits soared, wages stagnated and he openly blocked strikes. African Americans were discriminated against in both military and civilian industry. His secretary of 20 years, who devoted her entire life to his service, was paid half what male secretaries earned.

    I can see Road Ratt saying no difference between Roosevelt and Hitler and anyone who thinks so is full of shit.

    This is simply a really bad excuse, as you seem to be literally saying: "It is no big deal, all politicians lie to us". Either that or you are exclaiming that you have no morals what-so-ever since you don't care whether your candidate/party lies to you or not.

    You might want to rethink this argument. It clearly isn't a good one.

    You seem to have all the answers when it comes to political commentary or views, and you are entitled to them, as I am. Im an independent that leans more liberal but I also have some moderate views. What is your position?

    I'll ask again...who did you vote for in the last election? In my view if you didn't vote..you don't get to complain

    Your assumption is the one that clearly isn't a good one...you're the one who painted himself into a corner on this topic, and once again when confronted and asked to bolster your position with a clear explanation or evidence, you instead either refuse/decline...should insults soon be expected?

    Don't know how you can rationally expect for others to take you seriously.

    I for one, am still waiting for you to answer whether you've ever told a lie or not?
