If only you put half as much thought into your first comment as you now put into dodging it. You’d save yourself a lot of backpedaling.
Now you're throwing word salad hoping no one notices. But I did. And so did everyone else.
"...throwing word salad..."? Again, gibberish. Enjoy your day though.

Medical info is private. Not a conspiracy.
Perhaps the dems were that stupid not to react properly and maga should be happy because any decent candidate...non woke....would have beaten trump by 10%...the country would have been far better off.
Ironically Biden may have screwed up the last presidential, election by having dementia that may have caused him to forget he had cancer. 😅
Tax information is private, except when it isn’t. The journalists job would not be to leak medical records (though they would if it suited the cause), but reporting on Biden’s cognitive abilities, efforts to mislead the public etc would be in their job description.
As for Trump being beaten by a decent candidate, in retrospect I don’t think so. Dems pushed too far in weaponization and hypocrisy, and had a fundamental misunderstanding of voting trends.

The only thing predictable here is your argument blowing up in your face and your nonstop deflection to cover it up. And let’s be honest: Ashli Babbitt was brainwashed by a con man and deep down, you know it.
Had you conducted yourself with integrity in your first post, you would have been prepared to respond intelligently in your second post, and would not have to attempt to position yourself as honest in the third.

A predictable take from someone who didn’t think it through - but what else would you expect from someone lodged so deep in Trump’s rump?
What’s predictable is that you launch an unfounded accusation, and when asked for clarification, you respond with gibberish like this. It’s like someone directs you to say something silly, then ditches you when a response comes, leaving you completely unprepared to form a coherent response.

That was perhaps the worst extended comparison in the history of amateur journalism. Vodkapundit indeed.
I certainly believe Epstein could have been murdered, but likely killed himself. Still…with sleepy prison guards, broken cameras and one of most famous criminals in the world, it really seems very logical to be suspicious of the narrative offered by the govt.

'Blind faith in your leaders can get you killed’ - I agree, Leo.
Just ask Ashli Babbitt. She followed Trump’s lies straight into a barricaded federal building and died for it. You call it patriotism, but it was blind loyalty to a con man who watched it all unfold from a safe distance. That’s not bravery - it’s being used.
C’mon - you can admit that, right?
When did I call rushing “…straight into a barricaded building…” and dying for it “patriotism”?

Not defending him as obviously he does it, 3x I saw him don’t recall political preachiness. The last time, “The River” tour, if he did, I missed it, probably catching my breath. It was another sledgehammer show.
Agreed—saw him several times, including on Broadway a few years back, and there was nothing in that regard. I saw a clip from a show recently and it seemed a diff story, though to what degree I cannot say. I’ve never had a bad time at a show, and sledgehammer is a good description.

No I did not need the media to tell me that the Biden decline was showing signs even when he took office. All you needed to see was how limited his availability was, how structured and limited the questioning was, how quickly the rope could be pulled, and with all that there was still the gaffes and drifting issues, though those became more obvious later in the administration.
I still feel Dem leadership set him up for that Trump debate as a sink or swim moment. All the conditions (no notes, "helpers", etc.) were totally counter to how he was handled up to that point and allowed them the excuse to pull the plug on him.
And let's be clear. Biden is not a "vegetable". It's not an all or none event, it comes on slowly. Just like is happening with Trump now. There are certain periods where it will accelerate, then slow while continually progressing.
As far as the media "lying", I'd rather see his wife, administration, doctors and others held accountable before the media. They were essentially guilty of fraud in multiple actions. Sadly for the Dems, Harris should have ascended to the Presidential role and ironically may have had a better chance in the election. Did the media swallow and trumpet the excuses? Absolutely. Did the media lie, at times during the admin? I'm sure, but find the most blatant times to make an example, because it will tie up too many resources to have a complete witch hunt. Focus instead on the administration.
I certainly was not happy with the situation, but there is precedent. Edith Wilson, Dolly Madison and Martha Washington. Does that make it ok? No, and I'm hopeful laws and/or the constitution changes to prevent this ever again. It needs oversight.
Do you realize Trump's decline is starting to show and in different ways than Biden but still occuring? Or will you continue to play the hypocrite? Wait till he hits 80 but it will progress before then.
IMO, it comes down to this:
Whatever Biden and his team did, they did. Not the first nor last time it will happen.
The media side is a bit more complicated:
-They have sources or they don’t have sources. Part of the leap of faith when they quote sources deep within is that they are accurate.
-The media missed a major story about a president in crisis. It was open and obvious, it was clear to thinking people, and it started long before the debate.
Given that, there are two ways to look at it:
1. The media is incompetent and thus everything they put out should be questioned regardless of politics;
2. The media was complicit in the illusion of sharp as a tack Biden.
Given the post-mortem handwringing, I’d say complicit is most likely, but can see why others might think it was a competence issue.

Springsteen was a great rocker, now he’s ready for one.Saw him last in 2016, another great show. Him and the rest, DeNiro, Hanks, etc…..their politics never bother me nor keep me from enjoying what they do as entertainers. People who think they’re relevant beyond that, well….whatever.
Saw him last year, and was hopeful I wouldn't have to listen to him rattle on about his politics. I am 100% comfortable with him having his views (though I wonder what changed from 1985ish when he declared in concert that "Blind faith in your leaders can get you killed" when he could have simply said "Always vote democrat"), I just don't feel like for a few hundred a ticket I need to be a captive to his politics.
It was a great show, he played music, told a few stories and I didn't have to make a beer run if he started talking about politics. I made enough as it was.
There are literally hundreds of ways for him to scratch his 'do what i do' itch, but concert venues shouldn't be on that list imo.

Muppy, I’m just shocked that anyone would think Leh-nerd and I have similar writing styles! It’s also quite amusing to think of my alter ego from a dissociative identity disorder developing into Leh-nerd, of all people…
Ouch.

Please contact a moderator or website administrator at Two Bills Drive and ask them to compare the IP addresses, IP address locations, and login histories of Leh-nerd and I. Then report back what you learn.
You can do the same at BillsFans.com, by the way, because Leh-nerd and I are both members there. “Foxx” is the user name of the owner of that website. I’m not sure if Foxx personally knows Leh-nerd, but he knows my real-life identity and can verify that I am who I say that I am.
This is exactly what I would say if I was pretending to be you. “Foxx”??? Come on, how superficial!
Sounds like an awful lot of work when it’s just as easy to say we’re not we.
I am indeed a member of billsfan.com, but don’t visit much. I really enjoy interacting with those folks—I don’t know Foxx personally but appreciate the work he puts in and the site. I’m a bit of a creature of habit and change is hard for me. This may be the impetus to get me rolling again.

I agree. And deception of supporters happens on both sides as we are seeing with regret of many Trump voters.
I can’t speak to national trends, but I don’t know one Trump supporter that regrets their decision, or would revisit a vote for Biden or Harris.

Clearly he was in mental decline. Reagan also may have had some age decline while President. Same issue with senators on both sides. We will watch time catch up to Trump as he will be older than Biden by the end of his term. We definitely need an age limit to run for office at the Federal level, yet politicians won’t address that issue. Biden and his advisors betrayed the Democratic Party by concealing his decline and trying to run a second time. He said he was going to be a one term bridge, then his ego got too big.
The democrat party shoulders the entire blame here. Absent an historically horrific debate, his supporters would have dutifully lined up behind him and cast a vote for him the first time. In fact, if he stayed in the race, the likely outcome was the same.
Maybe the solution is to just accept that we’re often deceived, and not just feign outrage when our preferred candidate loses.

Smart to take the advice of highly trained experts and not fools on the internet.
In the spirit of personhood and compromise, I think you’re correct here. @Wacka I follow your posts, it’s great to hear things are progressing and you are receiving excellent care.

This thread cracks me up because it proves one thing—all the complaints or outrage about “whataboutism” go out the door when the high-minded folks need a whataboutism.
Comey knows the system, knows how to work the system, and knows what to say and what not to say. A far, far more insidious comment involved Chuck Schumer and “six ways from Sunday”.

So now it has been established that he was in rapid decline and that those around him tried to hide it. The question is what to do if this happens again? What are the safeguards?
And let's get real with those taking it to far. He was obviously in decline but who was running the country. The same people as always his cabinet. And he was losing it but not like my aunt who is in a home and doesn't recognize her own daughter and is mean to her losing it. He still could make decisions I'm sure. But not someone you want running a country. So what is the protocol?
I think the protocol would be to “get real” much, much sooner than this. One would hope the major media outlets would investigate, using their vaunted inside sources for the greater good, and not shoulder shrug now that they were duped….or that it was someone else’s fault. But, since we cannot trust political operatives to do the right thing, and the media is not trustworthy, we do what we can do—support the agenda that most closely aligns with your values.

With respect to the title of your post, I’m not sure his decline was worse than it seemed. He was making up words, struggling to stay on point and had trouble recalling details of his son’s death. This interview seems to follow the trajectory of what we saw the entire time.

Do you mean Black Monday? There's always concerns with market corrections and it's mostly pushed by people who want the stock market to drop so they can buy low. Also, people who make their living selling gold or other metals benefit off of people's fears of the market tanking. You obviously can't prove our 401k's would be higher if Trump didn't implement tariffs. However, I do think his actions made a lot of people's pockets a lot lighter than it should be right now.
Maybe I think I meant Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving where people get up early to get in line and buy all sorts of blue chippers at a discount! It’s crazy!
Yes, I meant Black Monday. My bad there, but beyond that, it’s possible you’re correct and I’m wrong. I typically deal with what’s in front of me, and try not to worry too much beyond that. I’m not always successful, but that’s the goal.

Theres going to be absolutely no peace. People are already furious. Why do you continue to poke the hornets’ nest?
People like BMan and the like continue to cry and scream over Minneapolis “burning down” (a little bit of hysteria, as @JDHillFan puts it). There will be more protests in kind.
And as I’ve said, I don’t support Mangione but I sure as hell understand where he’s coming from and how a lot of people feel the same way as him. People are fed up with a broken healthcare system that continues to slog along even when better solutions are staring us in the face.
I don't poke any hornets nest, and that loser wasn't a hornet, he's a murderous coward.
Someone is always furious. Eric Rudolph was furious. James Kopp was furious. Ted Kaczynski was furious. They all had people who understood them, fed up with a broken system as they saw it.
You understand where he's coming from, which is in the darkness along a street corner with a gun, ready to ambush a guy who was likely trying to figure out whether he should get the burrito or three taco special at the local Chipolte. That's a dark rabbit hole you're going down.

Once again, I’m saying this in response to MAGA policies that are deliberately designed to stoke rage and anger in the country.
There is no valid reason to pardon Chauvin, and it bothers me that the party of “small government and freedom” bends over backwards to defend police officers who are obviously not fit to serve and protect.
Given Trump’s weird desire to suspend habeas corpus, a small part of me thinks he’s hoping riots happen so he can have all the more reason to suspend it.
And I’m responding to your post specifically when you suggest people will get what they deserve.
Based on the actions of extreme (and sadly formerly moderate liberals), what was deserved before a Chauvin pardon was an execution style murder in the street by a lunatic.
I think that people who support Mangione and contribute to his wealth fund give less than a cr@p about habeus corpus. So I ask you…should Trump federally pardon Chauvin, what comes next? Will it be worse than the execution of Brian Thompson? Is that what you’re advocating for?

It's not that surprising to me because the market sentiment was pretty strong when he entered office and reached record highs after he was inaugurated. Then Trump did his bs trade crap and the markets had the worst three months since Carter was in office. It was more people of retirement age that were sweating it out as opposed to long term investors. Once Trump backed off a lot of investors took the opportunity to buy the dip. One person should not have that much power when it comes to influencing the global economy imo. Congress needs to pass legislation to regain the power of the purse when it comes to implementing tariffs.
Except there were substantial concerns about the potential for market corrections in the 10% range all throughout 2024, as there typically are after substantial increases. So, in adding that to the mix, with fear and hysteria at a fever pitch, and players set to profit off turmoil, again, the resilience was impressive.
I’m not that far off from retirement, but cooler heads typically prevail. WW2. Vietnam. Watergate. 2008. Black Friday. Historical trends. I acknowledge Trumps actions impacted the markets. To what degree and what that ultimately means cannot be measured in Fergie’s concerns about his pharmaceuticals over an 34 day period, or the a revisting of the Carter years. What happened post Carter? What was the appropriate course of action thereafter? Both rhetorical questions, of course.

You guys REALLY love defending the worst people humanity has to offer, don’t you?
You go ahead and pardon him. Bring it on. You’ll deserve every single thing that happens to you.
He was found guilty by a jury of his peers. You really don’t have to defend this waste of oxygen.“Bring it on” from the crowd that applauds and financially incentivizes a s-bag like Luigi Mangione. What next in your “deserve every single thing” Roundy? How do your people build on that one?
Derek Chauvin should not be pardoned, imo, though it certainly seems like there are a lot of questions about what he was trained to do by the state. Those questions should be answered. That said, perp walking the hero of the extreme liberal left past Chauvin’s cell, down to max security, shutting the cell door for the duration of his life is appropriate.
