The Presidential Debate: Your Thoughts...

[SydneyAngel]

 I think thats all speculation nothing of what you said has been proven while Trump has condemned the people who decided to just start building a wall which wasnt very good . 

 

 Im not going to question your health coverage

 

 I am a licensed plumber and business was booming before corona. There was work out there if you were willing to work hard. The rich will always be rich. 

 

there is democrat in this country but none of them are on the current ticket. We have socialist and progressives under the democrat umbrella. Its not like we have had both those parties in our history but there is no way to anything under that flag. Harris i dont know what i would call her maybe the first letter will begin with B. 

 

I agree right wing policies dont help people like you and me. I honestly dont think Trump is a republican. I think he is more like Whig party or just a independent

I'm not a big fan of Biden.  But I'm less of a fan of the Trumpists.  They just seem to be determined to stir up [muck] while not really fixing anything.

The working class has never been the problem.  It wasn't the factory workers that sent production offshore to increase profits.  It was just unfortunate for the poor suckers who helped build the companies and depended on them for their jobs.

 

I'm personally getting by these days.  I was fortunate to have started working at a time when there were still benefits (small pension) for employees.  And social security is still functioning (for now).  I worked for those benefits, doing construction work and then collecting garbage for over 30 years.  (a dirty thankless job - but somebody gots to do it)

But I don't see that for my kids.

 

As for the economy, the recovery actually began under Obama and continued under Trump.  Of course this was after they bailed out the bankers that caused the mess, and then let the working class lose their homes in foreclosure (to said bankers).  Like I said, I'm no fan of the Democratic Party.

 

The violence and looting in the demonstrations is just wrong, and counterproductive.  But to deny that there is racism in our culture you have to have your head stuck up somewhere where it doesn't belong.  As a veteran (which neither candidate is) I am offended by neofascists using the label "Patriot" for themselves.  Wanting to improve our country hardly qualifies as "treason". (although that seems to be what Trump considers anyone not loyal to him personally)

 

I don't even want to go into the climate stuff.

 

Well… It's getting late, and I'm tired.  I'm tired of everything, all this BS.  I'm old enough to know that you can't change people's minds by arguing with them.  So I don't really want to do it.  It's time for this old girl to go to bed.

 

Love all of you people.
