this president

Biden is in the basement hiding and Trump has a lot to deal with not of his own making. Polls mean NOTHING at this point. Biden is going to have to come out of hiding at some point, speak and debate. Moron alert!!! Biden coming out of the basement.

The polls falsely have Biden way ahead, then when/if he loses the Dem voters will feel like Trump cheated to win. They don't miss a trick.

[Buford.Justice]

is Biden hiding in the basement or just performing an "inspection"?

you are hoping that poll numbers mean nothing. and they may not. but the trend does. and that trend has been down ever since the president had daily covid briefings and once again exposed his ignorance and lack of leadership.

That trend is probably just another false narrative to help you gullibles beleive and to discourage Trump voters.

Could you possibly even consider that klem?

i have a wide open mind. provide me facts and i will consider the source, same as you. seems you have bought into more fake news than i have.

now... tell me why you voted for the president, has he delivered on his promises to the american people, and why i should consider voting for him.

Similar to the question I asked, repeatedly, and paraphrasing your fellow Democrat posters Kidrock and ss12 ---

“I’m offended in the way you asked that question, if it were me, I’d tell you to fuc%off. Keep asking, and see if you get different results.”

--- sorry Klem, that’s just how it works. And don’t blame me, I didn’t make the rules.

I voted for him because I was tired of politicians, I wanted a businessman!

I will vote for him again because 1) he has delivered on more campaign promises than any president I can remember, 2) he has protected religious rights, esp Christian ones, and has surely slowed down the murdering process of innocent babies!

Hate Trump if you want Klem. But saying he has not delivered on promises is absolutely ignorant. But hey, being ignorant is your right

I got lazy and pasted someone that expresses what I want.

secure borders, legal and merit-based immigration, putting the needs of Americans first, bringing our troops home from endless wars, limiting the power of the government in our lives, expanding individual freedom, bringing blue-collar jobs back to America and safeguarding the rights of Americans to live out their faith without being demonized.

Not only do we have the privilege of living in the greatest country in the world, but we do so at the best time in history to do so. Americans live longer and enjoy more freedom and opportunity than ever before. Just turn off the TV and look around.

I get it, President Trump is unconventional. But look closely and you will see he’s exactly the type of person you want fighting for you. Someone who loves America with all his soul and is fighting every day to make sure other countries don’t take advantage of us, our brave military men and women don’t spill their blood for wars we have nothing to do with, and that we are safe in our homes to enjoy life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

I will proudly be casting my vote for President Trump and invite every freedom-loving patriot in San Diego to join me in doing so.

President Trump is also fighting for US patriotic people, not sure that you are one klem who opposes the following.

The party of John F. Kennedy now embraces open borders, protecting criminal illegal aliens, shutting down speech they disagree with, class warfare, identity politics, abortion on demand — without any restrictions — and an ever-growing government bureaucracy encroaching in our lives while diminishing the role of faith and the traditional family in our society.

Klem has devout partisan support blinded you to the truth? Like too many you seem to believe any negatism fabricated about Trump and Republicans. And to claim that I fall for fake news is beyond belief.

[Barbecueboy]

I voted for him last time because........well, Hillary.

Same reason I and many of the same will vote for him this time.......well,Joe.

Put somebody up there worth voting for and most open minded folks would vote for them

[lurker]

Rush

You can choose from phantom fears and kindness that can kill, I will choose a path that's clear, I will choose free will.....just sayin.

And Barbecueboy throws down a relevant posting tribute to the great Canadian band Rush. Song written by the late great influential drummer Neil Peart, which in his early years his drum kits were built by one of my best friends of today.

how can you choose free will? when i already know you DO NOT truly understand free will as i do understand it!!!! i more than understand i KNOW what it is!!!

[Buford.Justice]

No no no Nate, I know free will even more than you do!! hehe

Free Will

The term “free will” has emerged over the past two millennia as the canonical designator for a significant kind of control over one’s actions. Questions concerning the nature and existence of this kind of control (e.g., does it require and do we have the freedom to do otherwise or the power of self-determination?), and what its true significance is (is it necessary for moral responsibility or human dignity?) have been taken up in every period of Western philosophy and by many of the most important philosophical figures, such as Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, Descartes, and Kant. (We cannot undertake here a review of related discussions in other philosophical traditions. For a start, the reader may consult Marchal and Wenzel 2017 and Chakrabarti 2017 for overviews of thought on free will, broadly construed, in Chinese and Indian philosophical traditions, respectively.) In this way, it should be clear that disputes about free will ineluctably involve disputes about metaphysics and ethics. In ferreting out the kind of control involved in free will, we are forced to consider questions about (among others) causation, laws of nature, time, substance, ontological reduction vs emergence, the relationship of causal and reasons-based explanations, the nature of motivation and more generally of human persons. In assessing the significance of free will, we are forced to consider questions about (among others) rightness and wrongness, good and evil, virtue and vice, blame and praise, reward and punishment, and desert. The topic of free will also gives rise to purely empirical questions that are beginning to be explored in the human sciences: do we have it, and to what degree?
