        I don’t presume to know. I am only saying we can’t assume anyone is actually acting in their own rational self interest since we know people so often do not. Anita Hill is no exception.

          I’m sure I don’t need to point out the irony here, right?

          I do want to point out that if no one can be trusted to act in their own self-interest, who then should act on their behalf?

      So the sore-loser wannabe dictator is the answer? We are between a rock and a fascist place. I vote rock.

          So young and naive. Unfortunately your opportunity to influence the process was in the primary.

            you do t know anything about my identity, and I’m not naive at all: I know what fascism is. its capitulating to the military industrial complex and jailing or killing anyone who threatens the states power.

              And yet you accuse Anita Hill, someone you know nothing about, that she’s voting against her own interests and didn’t know what she wants.

              The hypocrisy and stupidity is strong with this one.

              Well then I guess the choice in your mind is:

              1. dude not openly making public statements on how president’s can do whatever and not go to jail. or
              2. dude actively and openly trying to do opposite of option 1

              I know what my choice would be. If you are in a battle ground state please vote.

                  Sure biden wants to stay president after he claimed he was a 1 term president. I think issue there was presidential incumbent has higher chance of success than challenger and DNC doesn’t want to take risks with Trump.

                  Trump is literally talking about president killing rivals and getting away with it and Reichs. I never heard Biden say anything at that level openly.
