PHOENIX (AP) – The 2024 presidential election is drawing an unusually robust field of independent, third party and long shot candidates hoping to capitalize on Americans’ ambivalence and frustration over a likely rematch between Democrat Joe Biden and Republican Donald Trump.

    It’s been a few days so this thread should largely be inert.

    I’m not sure who you were replying to because it wasn’t me.

    I said nothing about Israel. I said I’d give him my vote. Your tone was dismissive to someone who wrote what you wanted to read, but I did not say or imply.

    Not interested in a flame war, only discussion. If you respond with hostility or more bad faith, you’ll get the last word - I’ll not reply.

      Joe Biden and Dark Brandon are the same person. You’re splitting rhetorical hairs for the sake of argumentation, based largely on a meme, and there’s no need for me to substantially respond to what is largely a meaningless assertion. You just refuse to give Biden credit for Dark Brandon’s accomplishments, which is insane.

        I used a rhetorical device to easily distinguish what excites me about him being president versus what’s meh. It worked and works.

        Most people know they aren’t going to see a DB meme for the Israel topic *that you introduced from… Somewhere? *

        He’s chalked up wins and I know he’ll end up with L’s. But I prefer seeing him using his political capital on the economy, green energy, trust busting, courts… The virtuous things Roosevelts did.

        You keep implying I said something I didn’t and your post history is argumentative. Smart, but too many elbows. This will be my last reply.

          You made an assertion that amounts to little more than “I like him when he does some things, but not when he does others.”

          No shit, sherlock. That’s how all of this works. You want a cookie?
