CNN is less biased, BY FAR, than Fox News. Indepentent studies have shown this. Even Fox's news division is deeply biased and has a Pro Republican agenda. When you compare coverage of Trump and Biden it becomes abundantly clear. There is almost no criticism of Trump on Fox, while CNN does have negative stories about Biden when the facts dictate such coverage. Trump is a reprehensible human being. A spoiled rich brat who thinks the world owes him everything he wants, and now that includes political power. He is a bigger liar than Bill Clinton, and that's saying a lot. He has said - out loud - that he shouldn't have to follow the Constitution if he doesn't like the parts of the Constitution involved or if it prevents him from doing what he wants. Several of his aides have said how they were barely able to talk him out of doing illegal, unconstitutional things while he was in office. And now he's saying he's not going to have anyone in his next administration that doesn't agree with him 100%. If you can't see how bad that could get I don't know what to tell you. But doesn't the fact that he idolizes Putin give you some concern?
I'm not worried about Trump threatening Democracy for at least two reasons. First, he is NOT going to win the election! Second, you mention (evidence, please) that Several of his aides have said how they were barely able to talk him out of doing illegal, unconstitutional things while he was in office. In the event, he did not, stated in the quote, actually do anything that was illegal.
As I have pointed out, if he is re-elected and tries to do something unconstitutional, the courts will smack him done. Let's see. That would be like what Biden did with his student loan gambit. As I recall, the Supremes smacked Biden down for that move.
As far as being a rich brat, well, there are plenty of politicians who are in the same category.
Lest readers forget, let me state that I am totally opposed to both Trump and Biden!

First of all, I'm not sure that "Trump idolizes Putin" can be backed up with evidence. Trump says a lot of stupid things, not all of which should be taken seriously.
This should very much be taken seriously. You think FDR or Churchill would have said something about that about Hitler when he invaded Poland? I don't think so, nor should they have! Putin's invasion of Ukraine was (and still is) utterly unacceptable. He's a thug and this invasion is very much akin to the expansionist moves Hitler made in the late 30's and early 40's. Saying anything nice about him like him being, "Smart," and, "Savvy," is utterly unacceptable and shows that Trump does idolize Putin. ("Savvy?" Wow, that's NOT what you say about a murderous thug like Putin. Ever.) |

If that's not a red flag, I don't know what is. How f****** stupid does his cult have to be not to get this stuff? |

RFK Jr. is mulling a run as an Independent, which may have pretty dire consequences. This should be interesting. Rumors are swirling RFK will run as an independent or libertarian. Who will his votes impact the most, Biden or Trump? For kicks, let’s say RFK’s votes take enough away from both, and no one gets the needed 270. Then the House of Representatives elects the president. Would the House have to elect one of the three or anyone they want? What if the House can’t decide by January 20? The Presidential Succession Act of 1886 and 1947 seem as clear as mud. Thoughts? |

Does it matter? trump already telling his maga base...if he loses ...it's rigged! might make January 6 look like a girl scout picnic. "I love the poorly educated". |

The prevailing thought is Biden would be hurt the most, but no way to know for sure until the picture becomes more clear. |

Don’t think a 3rd party being successful is realistic for the next 20 years. Would love to see term and age limits revised.
