If Biden wins, the country will be run into the ground and things like mental illness will be shoved down our throats as normal;

Wait is mental health something people complain about being made aware of?

Well he said "things like mental illness" so I assume he's talking about neurological disorders, autism, and possibly MS or Parkinson's.

Or possibly trasngerderism.. Would be my guess..
Most common mental illness being shoved down our throats as normal that I notice..

Why do you think Biden would send BTC to the moon OG?
Because he will cooperate with China to destroy the usd?

By mental illness I’m not referring to physical ailments as mentioned above. I’m talking about the crazy gender neutral creatures I see who are offended by pronouns.

I think Biden’s tax and health care plans will run up the national debt to the point where Bitcoin could hit $200,000. Sure, we’ll be paying $20 for a gallon of milk at that point and most people won’t be able to afford rent without the government’s help, but ‘we’ will all be incredibly wealthy so that will be a problem for those who foolishly thought the government getting more involved in their lives was a good thing.

I’m torn. If Trump wins the economy will continue to improve, society will be steered in the right direction, our servicemen will be cared for, and our country will be much stronger than the alternative; but we’ll have to deal with crybaby liberals and another four years of temper tantrums.

If Biden wins, the country will be run into the ground and things like mental illness will be shoved down our throats as normal; but we won’t have to deal with crybaby whining liberals for four more years and Bitcoin will shoot over the moon.

I can see the silver lining for each candidate.

Another tantrum:

President Donald Trump abruptly ended a solo interview with CBS News' "60 Minutes" Tuesday and did not return for an appearance he was supposed to tape with Vice President Mike Pence, according to multiple sources familiar with what happened.

After camera crews set up at the White House on Monday, Trump sat down with host Lesley Stahl for about 45 minutes on Tuesday before he abruptly ended the interview and told the network he believed they had enough material to use, according to two sources.

Loading...

I feel a little bit sorry for Pence. Well, not really, but it seemed like a nice thing to say.

How is it literally undemocratic to pass a law that changes the number of justices on the supreme court?  Congress has that explicit power. Or do you just feel very strongly about the number 9?  In the end, if the country feels strongly enough against it, they won't give the WH, Senate and House to democrats.


I'm kind of on the fence, but I don't think it's too extreme or would cross any line that hasn't been crossed already - I just think if Democrats sweep they should put serious effort into making a less divided country.

On the other hand, I think it's really silly to argue that the court should lean one way for basically a generation because the last judge happened to die in September instead of Dec or later.  

Here, let RBG explain it to you - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pkwfITbEuM

We've had 9 justices for over a century, changing the balance of the court because you want to legislate policy from the bench is undemocratic. The judicial branch should be independent, and adding justices changes that. You seem to have this notion that if government can make changes that are constitutional, that it can't be classified as undemocratic. This isn't the case, example -- packing the court.

And here's Joe Biden telling you why it was a bad idea when FDR tried to court pack - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_lBVmrLfeQ

I don't think you should be on the fence about this. Court packing isn't a new idea, but people advocating now in 2020 for court packing are just having a knee jerk reaction. The world isn't ending because ACB is on the court. Abortion isn't going away either.

Yeah... What kind of goofball would think that the Supreme Court should lean towards constitutional conservatism?
Must’a been dropped on his head..

Needs some Marxist sympathizers on it to counter the libertarian principles that have been there, oh, since it’s formation roundabouts..
Better just take the system so it’s “fair” and all..

I don't see any good coming from Biden taking a stand one way or the other at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't sure right now other than wanting to keep it on the table.  Could be a great bargaining chip a few months from now if he wins, or there could be some other reason that pushes him one way or the other.

There is no reason to keep such a dumb idea on the table. Denounce it or own it. And if you're threatening to change the number of justices on the court to use as a bargaining chip, that's literally undemocratic.

There's one big thing that I've come to notice regarding Trump about all of this. People forget that he is catering to what the Republican voters want to hear right now. The Republican voters think that the economy crumbling is the biggest thing to come from COVID, and they want the economy to open back up due to that. While Dem voters think that COVID is the biggest issue that our nation is facing at the moment.

I know I saw that somewhere, but I honestly just can't find the source right now. Probably pew research. I'll have to look around and edit this post once I find it.

Schumer can't just make DC and Puerto Rico states.  He could allow a vote on the Senate floor, but PR or DC becoming a State would require a bunch of other votes as well.  Quite democratic.

This doesn't make the intention undemocratic. It just means his insanity to change the rules will be stopped by democratic procedures.


Also, I think it's pretty stupid Trump is attacking Fauci. He should just leave it alone at this point. But I also remember distinctly Fauci telling everyone not to wear masks in March, not to implement a travel ban, and arguing in early 2020 that coronavirus did not require any significant lifestyle changes. He also during a congressional hearing was blatantly wrong about T cell immunity to which he seemingly back peddled.  - https://www.thailandmedical.news/news/covid-19-headlines-why-is-dr-fauci-now-distancing-himself-from-an-earlier-t-cell-immunity-hypothesis-he-was-previously-peddling.

Dr. Fauci is doing a service to the U.S., but he is not the only infectious disease expert. Because Americans are stupid and don't know how to do research for themselves, they need to rely on a central figure head to make them feel safe, and that person is Dr. Fauci. So naturally, the media will do its best to prop him up, and Trump very stupidly will do his best to create controversy.

Would be interesting to see if PR wants to become a state. Remember as of now residents are not paying federal income tax. So becoming a state would get them more benefits but cost a lot of people $$$. I feel DC *should* become a state OR we as a nation should stop taxing people who live there. It is technically taxation without representation so there is that....

-Dave

They've voted to not become a state several times I believe.  Haven't really kept up with what's going on with them and DC joining recently though.



Apparently Trump said some pretty stupid things at his rally today, even by todays standards.  Basically gifted Biden an effective campaign ad.

“He’ll listen to the scientists, If I listened totally to the scientists, we would right now have a country that would be in a massive depression instead — we’re like a rocket ship. Take a look at the numbers.”

“He wants to listen to Dr. Fauci. He wants to listen to Dr. Fauci.”

This story is hysterical.

Apparently it's confirmed that these emails originated from a Hunter Biden laptop that was dropped off at a computer store for repair. The owner of the store allegedly was some conspiracy nut that made a copy of the HDD's content's and took it Rudi Giuliani's lawyers.

Hunter Biden being a mess as it already is, son of the Vice President, takes his computer to a repair shop with a hard drive full of sensitive info...potentially throwing off his father's Presidential clear path to the White House.

It's like that one Bernie sanders meme where he comes in with a chair in the WWE, except it's Hunter Biden holding his laptop.

Don't forget the fact the the PDFs were created AFTER he supposedly after he dropped the laptop off.
You know the laptop, that was probably under warranty that he took to a non apple repair shop.
On the opposite coast of where he was at the time.

Plenty of dems have openly called to pack the courts in Congress, so Biden would have a say in court packing if there ever was a large enough margin. Biden owes people an answer on court packing, but of course he's already made it clear voters don't deserve to know his position prior to election day (how that makes sense is beyond me, I'm not even going to try to understand how he came up with that logic).

Chuck Schumer has also floated the idea of making DC and Puerto Rico states so that the senate can get 4 more democratic senators. Not quite democratic to change the rules when you don't get your way.

How do you suppose that he got away with instant tyranny, as much as he wanted?  (For pedantic correctness:  Off the top of my head, I don’t know if the Roosevelt gold ban was one of the issues directly impacted by the court-stacking threat; but I do know that the Commerce Clause abuse that is nowadays institutionalized to Federalize everything did start with Roosevelt, for exactly that reason.  And your Supreme Court should have, and otherwise would have promptly torn up everything from Socialist Insecurity, to quotas imposed on how much farmers could grow, etc., etc.)

A president can't just pack the courts though.  His only real power is to stop them from being packed.  For the number of judges to change, you need enough of the 400+ members of the House that represent the entire country and are elected every 2 years to make it happen.  So, not really tyranny.

If Barr were to appoint a special prosecutor, it would create another avenue in which the story would be thrust into the news.

Surely you're not suggesting a presidential nominees ties to a foreign country be investigated during the election, are you?  Because I thought you said that was treason or something.

In other news, I recently learned that the World Food Program was one of the non profits that Hunter Biden was on the board for and they won a Nobel Prize last week.  What a stark contrast to Trumps children (and himself) exploiting the Trump foundation for personal gain.  (they were forced to shut it down and they're now barred from running, or being on the board of any charity in the state of NY...I believe for life.

Somehow I feel that it won’t actually do much damage because let’s face it.. Crack smoking and prostitutes aren’t really all that offputting to most leftists now is it?
The libertarian in me doesn’t really care either other than the fact that I wouldn’t want to put such a person in/close to a position of power..
Ukraine evidence? They won’t care..

This story has been hot for days and it is just now being mentioned on Bitcointalk.. Not even a thread on it..
Nobody really cares..

I think the story is just beginning. Biden himself has not even acknowledged the story beyond that it is a “smear campaign”. I don’t think this is a sustainable strategy. There are too many junior reporters who have integrity who are willing to ask about it. There is also the debate where Trump will certainly bring it up. Once Biden addresses it, it will no longer be possible for the media to ignore.

There is some evidence that Biden was personally profiting from his corruption. There are indicators that Joe Biden was receiving half of Hunter’s salary that was being given solely to give access to his father. If money was going into Biden’s bank account, he could possibly be on the hook for tax fraud, and bribery charges.

If Barr were to appoint a special prosecutor, it would create another avenue in which the story would be thrust into the news.

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?

Seeing whom predominantly non-leftists put in the White House 4 years ago I don't think that's what's going in here. It's either "5 generations of my family voted [blue|red] so I can't possibly change now even if the candidate fucks a goat" or "this person promised something that I really like so who cares about the goat", or a combination thereof.
