But to tell him whom he SHOULD choose? I dunno. It rubbed me the wrong way. Just like trump DICTATING what people can/should do. I think Amy K means well but I personally am offended. A prez candidate SHOULD HAVE COMPLETE say in whom he wants as the veep. My humble opinion. If I were in Joe's shoes I'd want complete AUTONOMY to control that decision. It's like having others tell you whom you can marry. less

That is not a country. That is a black mark in our history of trying to be undone by our own citizens. BLASPHEMY. Well we live among their ancestors' ghosts and their overwhelming prejudices and their heroes and their hates to this day. The Civil war goes on unending. It will never disappear. It is far too dear to so many of them to let it go.This new day is very strange. Some part of it is very calming clear-eyed determined and some part of it is the exact opposite. Erratic blind and determined. Not good. less

That's how big a hero he is to them. He wants folks to show how loyal they are?These folks are putting their lives on the line to see him. Of course they are also gonna be putting the lives of countless others on the line too. But what the he** that doesn't concern them. No skin off THEIR noses. Only breathing the same air trump is breathing in real time as they exchange Covid 19 droplets is the most important day of their lives. Very friendly. Very sharing. Very cute. less

No one is going to say "I saw a gay movie". Or "I attended a gay play"Weird how words get co-opted and used for whatever the human mind can ascribe to them. I remember as a kid I read a book called THE GAY CHARIOT. At least I think it was. I doubt anyone puts "gay" in any title today unless he/she is specifically referring to LGBTQ. There ya go. Words are just words until homo saps get their hands on them and turn them into slang or pollute them with prejudice hate bias. That's homo saps for ya.A head is a toilet. So is a throne. Weird. less

That would be counterproductive completely irrational and only something dumbheads would do. Whatever dumbheads show up are anti peaceful and therefore pro trump.All the trump floated disclaimers and insults and attacks notwithstanding if you can find a way to think it through LOGICALLY then being unpeaceful would be the LAST thing peaceful people would do.I guess I've said that a bazillion times by now. Why it is so impossible for some to comprehend proves how difficult thinking is for them. They simply aren't up to doing it. They don't have the right tools. It escapes them and is beyond them. SIGH. So I guess we just keep trying to get through to them. Right? less

Maybe so he can complain about them?

He did own a dog though whose name was Barschie (Laddie).Pavlov's experiment about conditioning involved working with 40 dogs, all of which had names.Now you know what you might have wondered about if you have an oddball mind. If you don't you may notknow about Schrodinger or Pavlov. No worries. I'm sure trump doesn't know about them either. No disrespect to you intended.

It is what it is and that's all that it is.Well it makes sense. Some groups are more apt to be SUSCEPTIBLE (read gullible in the case of Republicans) to a disease than other groups. While folks of any ethnicity can get sickle cell anemia it seems to affect/attack African Americans more than it does other groups.Why that is I do not know. Do you? less
