    Who do you thinks works in association with the media? Biden doesn't have to do any of that because he has CNN, ABC, NBC, MSNBC, Washington Post, and the New York Times to do all that. What can Biden possibly say at this point that the media hasn't already gone after Trump's kids for? I mean, you're asking blatantly obvious questions that don't require an answer since it's pretty clear what's going on.

    the media saying something is completely different than biden/his campaign saying something

    right wing media has been going after hunter biden for months now, why does trump/his campaign continue to do the same then if they have their own media doing it too?

    Most of the mainstream media today leans left. Trump gets bad publicity 24/7. FOX is the only mainstream media actively attacking Biden. Twitter censors Republicans. There's documented evidence of them allowing leftist propaganda but conservatives are shut down for having an opposing opinion. Facebook has been subpoenaed for anti-conservative abuse on their platform. But go ahead and pretend that the media is working in favor for Trump. Do you know why Trump has to continue doing it? I'll tell you why. In the last town hall debate, Biden answered ZERO questions about Hunter Biden. He wasn't even pressed on any of it. Chris Wallace, in the first debate, never even bothered to push back on it. Yet, Trump consistently has to answer questions about him denouncing white supremacy even though he did it for decades? Trump has denounced the white supremacists more than any politician in the entire history of the United States. Yet, white supremacy becomes the subject and Trump gets attacked for it but Joe Biden gets zero pushback on Hunter's mysterious relationships with companies that have no business hiring him? Sure...... Keep acting like you're oblivious to all of this. Either you are or maybe you are Hunter Biden himself.

    was trump asked about his kids during the debate? there's certainly plenty of stuff about his kids that the moderators could press him on. did they?

    why are we going to focus on hunter biden, as if trump's kids have no shady business dealings of their own?

    If they do, speak on it. I sure don't remember a Trump kid dying and one of his sons coming to the aid of his widow. And by aid, I mean banging her for over a year. Kinda creepy, but hey, if we're ignoring that stuff, let me know. Hunter Biden is a crack head POS and anyone defending him is blind partisan. Nothing more. But for some reason, we're supposed to ignore it. Imagine if Sarah Palins kid did half this. The media (wing of the liberal party) tore her apart and she was still a teen. Hunter is a grown man taking in millions for his dad. But yeah, let's ignore it. Make up the rules as we go. Sounds great.

    no one's defending him. i honestly couldn't care less about him because he's not the one running for president

    just pointing out how there's plenty of dirt on the trump kids for their shady business dealings and how i wish biden and his campaign would go after them since trump's entire campaign is now focused on hunter

    It started 100 years ago. FDR era. They planted the seed of government and social programs to "help" those in need. And slowly, the United States started grabbing hold of industries like school districts that used to be 150,000 strong, now they are down to 15,000. Unions, welfare, etc. I am a firm believer that if you continue to look for some person telling you they are gonna help you in a suit with his/her fake family behind him/her, you will eventually reap the "benefits" of that scam. And those benefits are usually donut holes.

    The governments job should be to PROTECT their citizenry. Not run the government like a business. Protect with sufficient military. Assist in helping the country develop if their needs to be dams or bridges and roads. We blame these politicians when they don't do what we want but we are the reason why they don't because it's just another business racket. Idealists always start into politics to "help". Eventually the backlash makes them resent the citizenry and they end up just doing what they want.

    As long as human beings are in charge of anything, it will always be difficult to get the right system that helps everyone. Because it would mean that every single person would have to compromise on every issue which is just not possible.

    I'm looking forward to a Kamala Harris presidency, unfortunately, there will be more wars, hopefully far away from my country but more important to me is historically lower dollar power from a Democratic Presidency.

    Pelosi's remark about using the 25th amendment is not about Trump. They'll drag demented Joe's carcass out of the WH after the inauguration

    Politicians are a reflection of society. It's a sad time.

    Our politicians are the laughingstock of the world right now. It's reality TV more than respectable leaders. It's shameful and embarrassing.

    More of a reflection of the media coverage rather than politicians, who stay the same every single time, except for Trump who is obviously a comedian.

    I'd say the quality of candidates has continued to nosedive for many terms now

    The FBI has had the contents of this laptop since last year. Why haven't any arrests been made?

    If you haven't watched the Social Dilemma on Netflix, I highly recommend it. It basically explains why we're arguing right now. The algorithms are such that they continue to send you content that will make you happy. But the algorithms can't tell fact from fiction. So both sides just get more and more content that supports their position. If all you ever get is content from one side with a lot of it being a straight up lie, there's no wonder we are all so divided. Everything we read paints the other side as Satan incarnate.
