JMO, but as an observer, people seem not happy, especially after the pandemic.
Trump spoke hope and prosperity.
And thru my travels, people have still not taken down Trump signs or flags. In fact, some of the flags I have seen recently look new.
C’mon Man you must be kiddin’.
We all respect pResident Biden* profoundly because of..uhhh...the thing.
Voting machines don’t get tired they either break down or keep counting and counting.
I wonder if the press might get tired of being the laugh track for the Biden Show and being manipulated by the Administration and start doing their jobs. Doubtful, but the power is in their hands, all they need to do is start asking the right questions.
60 percent approve of him so far. I’m hoping that’s due to free money.
Heck no. The media was bashed for being to hard on Biden at the press conference. I kid you not.
Senile Man Bad!
I see an iceberg on the horizon but nobody believes me. The bridge is dark.
I was tired of Biden since the first time I saw his arrogant and foolish ass.
And that is a half an hour of your life that you will never get back!

From your lips to gods ears. Hopefully it happens soon.
5. “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.” There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions.
Have noticed in my state gasoline prices are varying at 50 cents from one area to another
What the heck are you talking about?
“I wonder if the press might get tired of being the laugh track for the Biden Show and being manipulated by the Administration and start doing their jobs.”
I’ve been wondering that for fifty years.. looks like the answer is no.
There are a few with the courage and moral decency to speak the truth - but for them the punishment is severe - and many of them eventually choose the path of least resistance.
I have to say I can hardly blame them. Peer pressure can be very powerful - and the Left’s brand of peer pressure is not the garden variety - it is a vicious strain that will rip you to shreds without giving it a second thought.
Here’s my story:
Four years ago I had hundreds of “friends” on Facebook - including many actual friends from childhood, school, various work places, and other shared interests.
Some were current friends and others voices from the past that I became reacquainted with through Facebook. Sure, there were a bunch who turned out to be too Leftist and too outspoken about it - so I unfriended the most annoying of them - and I spent less time on FB and avoided political discussions.
In the last four years though, I couldn’t resist speaking out a few times because the hypocrisy was too much for me.
One time they were ridiculing President Trump for having orange skin, saying awful things about Melania including making fun of her accent and implying she was a prostitute.... I said “Wait - I thought you Democrats were against this sort of thing... all this hate, all this focus on a person’s appearance, the color of their skin, their foreign accent - why is all this hating and shaming and intolerance suddenly OK with you?
For saying that I brought down an avalanche of Holy Hell upon myself.. I got such a golly of tongue lashings that I literally deleted my Facebook account and never went back - and that was no big loss - but I also lost a lot of friends - or people I thought were my friends.
The sad part is that this fall will be my 50th high school class reunion - I don’t know how many people will show up given covid - but because of this FB “falling out” I find myself kind of dreading it.
And that is just peer pressure in my fake FB world - where speaking your mind is optional. I can only imagine what it’s like working in the media - being surrounded by vicious Leftists - having your salary paid by vicious Leftists... and yet being in a profession where the right thing to do is speak the truth...
Sounds like a nightmare - like I said - I can’t really blame them if they either buckle under or quit... if I was in that profession I think I would have quit long ago.
All my FB friends are conservative. We were all HS classmates. I havea about 20 of them. We all graduated in the early to mid 70s.
Yeah, I realize FB is not the same experience for everybody. My brother says the same thing.
I think the reasons FB went Left for me was 1) because I’ve always played in a band and was using FB to network among musicians, keep tabs on music venues and attract followers. Musicians and music fans tend to be liberal - at least those interested in the music we play. I’m very conservative so I’m odd man out. 2) because I have six children and I was using FB to keep tabs on them - if one of my kids posted something, or commented, I got alerted, I might make a comment, I gets friend request and pretty soon I’m FB friends with lots of my kids FB friends...and their parents.
So I guess I wasn’t very selective about my FB friends - I just let it expand on its own.
My brother did the opposite and mostly only made FB friends with people with similar political views
And the frightening reality is there really are four more years to go, either with this dirt bag of a president or Heels Up. And Heels couldn't be president of a junior high school student council. We are so screwed.
There was no great love for Sen. Harris either.
