Do they think Biden is another Hillary? People like Joe but are inspired into action out of hatred for Trump.
The remaining and ironic question is whether Trump will see jail time after he is voted out of office.
Too bad Rigged won't be brave enough to stick around to discuss Trump losing the election. Will Sally be brave enough to return?
Too bad that you don't have the guts to do the Runningart challenge. I will be celebrating on election night and your will be crying liberal tears.

Finally. I'm assuming she will take her time to decide whether to endorse Bernie or Biden. What is clear is that MA was not as fond of her and Bernie's ideas, so she has to be careful with her next move. I'm assuming Bernie has asked her about becoming his VP pick, in hopes that could boost his chances.. but she wouldn't risk it just yet.

But you already have "a mentally ill man (child) with his finger on the nuclear button".
So far haven't heard any attacks on Joe's actual resume or proposals, just a bunch of echoes of trump's tweets and right wing rags. That is all you have, but you're desperate so I get it. Just don't get so soiled when we call out the orange one's chronic issues.
Do try to convince us again to rebel and vote for Bernie though, lol.

This is not winning trigged, another Kushner lining his pockets is not a win for you.

Biden’s History of Lies, Family Scandals and Corruption
Apr 30, 2019
RUSH: Folks, this is not sour grapes, and it’s not partisan, even though it would be extremely difficult for me to convince outsiders of that. But this entire Joe Biden campaign — and, in fact, much of the left’s campaign against Trump — is a series of lies. One of the big lies that they’re telling is that the tax cut, the Trump tax cut, didn’t help anybody. Biden’s out there making the point (impression), “A $2 trillion tax cut! Did you see it? You didn’t get any of it. That’s right.” (grumbling) There’s a big story on Drudge today.
I didn’t click on it. I just saw the link. The survey says most people have no idea they benefited from tax cut because they’re just lying through their teeth about it. Consumer spending is at a record high. All the indications that people are flush with disposable income in the real world are out there. Consumer spending is up, unemployment is way down, wages are up, and yet here come the Democrats — with their willing accomplices in the Drive-By Media — literally lying to people. And the tax cut is just one thing that they’re lying about.
It’s a series of lies. They’re lying about how great the Trump economy is. They’re saying it’s no good. It’s only doing well for the rich and Wall Street bankers and so forth. It’s a crock. It’s the exact opposite. For once, the United States economy is lifting all boats, as the saying goes. For once, the United States economy is reaching everyone. The tax cuts and all of the benefits are reaching the people who make this country work. It was the Obama economy that didn’t. It was the Obama-Biden economy that damaged people.
It was the Obama-Biden years that gave us a “new normal” of economic growth of 1%, Biden and Obama were both telling us, “Get used to it. This is the new normal.” They went so far as to tell manufacturing employees out of work in the Midwest (Obama impression), “Those jobs, they’re never coming back. I don’t know how Trump thinks he’s gonna bring ’em back. What’s he gonna do, wave a magic wand? How’s he gonna do it?” They’re back. Jobs are roaring. These people literally told the American people that America’s best days were behind us!
And the reason that they were not gonna happen again is because the great days of the past were illegitimate, just like the country is illegitimate just because of our founding and the mistakes at the founding. The country’s illegitimate. All of the great economic periods in the past were not real. They were contrived, and they only benefited a few — the rich, the Wall Street bankers, the usual identifiers of the 1%. It’s they, Obama and Biden and the entire Democrat Party, which suppressed the United States economy for the purposes of injecting the United States into a global economy.
It was Biden and Obama who warned everybody that the days of record economic growth were over. They couldn’t happen again because they weren’t real when they were reported to have happened in the past. It was a doom-and-gloom administration, and it carries over to today (which we have more evidence of this coming up shortly). But if you pay attention to the Drive-By Media, if you pay attention to the news, everything’s negative. Everything’s a crisis. But, specifically, what is reported as a crisis?
The future. You see, this is the key to destroying the hopes and the dreams of young people and converting them to constant dependence on government. You tell them the future is worse than the past. You tell them there’s nothing for them in the future because of the mistakes in the past. You just preach a never-ending picture — you paint it — of doom and gloom, and you include things in it like climate change where there may not even be a planet capable of supporting your life by the time you’re 65.
Everything in the media-Democrat complex regarding the future is dismal, it’s dark, it’s dank, it’s bleak, and it’s never ending. As such, with that much repetition and that much simultaneous and consistency — no matter what media platform you access, be it books, movies, TV shows, the news — everything about the future is disaster awaiting, and especially if a Republican is elected president. So it’s into this mix, here comes Joe Biden, and this is what Joe Biden is saying exists now.
We’re living in, finally, an economic rebirth and recovery. We’re coming out of the dismal misery of the eight years of Obama, and the media and the Democrat Party are lying through their teeth to people — and Biden in his announcement yesterday — in order to create a sense of helplessness and futility. Biden is lying about his treatment of Anita Hill. He’s lying about his actions during the Anita Hill-Clarence Thomas circumstance, during the Thomas confirmation hearings for the United States Supreme Court.
There are so many lies that are part of the Joe Biden political life span that they are impossible to calculate, and the media is ignoring all of them. You want to hear just a few? And what this is gonna illustrate, folks, there are two worlds out there. You might go back to the Breck Girl, John Edwards. His campaign for president (short-lived, though it was) said there are two Americas, and there really are. But in his world, the two Americas are the rich and the poor. The two Americas are left and right.
The two Americas are conservative America and socialist-liberal America. The one the Democrats get to live in, and the one Republicans are forced to live in. Now, I’m gonna tell you some things here that I will bet 95% of you have no idea of any of this, and I will wager further that if you tell anyone — if you repeat what I’m gonna tell you here — that 95% of anybody you tell will have no idea of any of this. As I go through these things, I want to you to realize you don’t know anything about this, and you don’t know because none of it was reported — and then I want you to realize if a Republican were involved in it, you’d know all of it.
“In the year 2017, Joe Biden’s niece,” I’m not gonna mention her name; it’s not the point here, “stole $100,000 through a credit card scam, grand larceny. She was able to cut a deal with New York prosecutors and got off scot-free without jail time or probation. It was her second arrest. She was able to deal her way out of that one too. She has also been to rehab numerous times.”
Biden’s son of his dead wife, Hunter Biden, “was kicked out of the Navy for failing a cocaine drug test; then he divorced his wife, the mother of his three daughters, after a yearlong affair to marry his brother’s widow”!
Who does this? Did you know this, Mr. Snerdley?
(interruption)
Yeah, you knew it. You had forgotten it, because it’s never reported. No, hang on, before you go crazy out there, folks. Joe Biden’s son, Hunter, “was kicked out of the Navy for failing a cocaine drug test; then he divorced his wife, the mother of their three daughters, after a yearlong affair to marry his brother’s widow. Over the course of the divorce, Biden’s son drained hundreds of thousands of dollars from the couple’s assets by spending extravagantly on his own interests, including drugs, alcohol, prostitutes, strip clubs, and gifts for women with whom he had sexual relations while leaving the family with no money to pay legitimate bills.”
Actually, worse than that. By the way, I have news links for every one of these stories. This one is Delaware Online. Now, all of this is on top of the billions of dollars Joe Biden dubiously arranged from the Ukraine. There is a huge financial scandal. Biden’s up to his neck in Ukrainian scandals, not Trump, and it puts Manafort to shame.
Biden has a daughter who has been arrested several times on drug charges. “While he was vice president, she was videotaped snorting cocaine, but the news media decided not to publish the video. “She hid out in her Delaware home for a week or so until things calmed down.” Now, look, I know, folks. “We’re supposed to leave the kids out of it,” right? I understand all of this. We’re not supposed to talk about Hillary Clinton, but we can talk about the Bush daughters (Chelsea Clinton, I’m sorry), and we can smear the Trump kids all day long. That’s the point that I want to make. All of God’s children have problems. I’m the first to admit it and understand. I’m not climbing on the children now. I’m talking about the media.
Just imagine if these things had happened to the Trump children. They have already smeared the Trump children. They have tried to link the Trump children to this mythical Russian collusion. They are now subpoenaing the financial records of the Trump Organization for the express purpose of trying to ruin the Trump family, including the children and Trump’s businesses. And whatever dirt they dig up from banks or wherever they can get it, they will report it worldwide. They will not be able to restrain themselves — and yet, that’s the different worlds.
The Democrats live in a world where all of the stuff they do and their families do is covered up and buried and never reported, never to be heard about. Where the world the Republicans live in, they are constant targets. There is a never-ending media anal exam looking for just this kind of information so that when and if it is uncovered it can be reported. In the real world, it appears the Trump kids have no dirt! There’s no scandal. They can’t find anything. They’ve tried to manufacture all kinds of things.
With Trump, a payoff to a porn star compared to some of the other things that have gone on with are Democrats that get buried and ignored. The difference is, the Republicans are not out subpoenaing and trying to dig up all this dirt on Biden’s kids. The Republicans are not trying to involve Biden’s family, his kids, or any of these crazy stories about the two sons and having an affair with a widow and then divorcing your own wife to marry the widow of your brother.
None of that.
Republicans are not digging into it. Republicans are not trying to discover to find it out. But the exact same can’t be said for the Democrats trying to destroy the Trumps. I don’t think the Republicans are interested in the Biden children’s bank and credit card accounts, are they? But boy, you look! The entire Democrat-controlled House of Representatives is throwing everything it can upside down to try to get any dirt (even if they have to make it up) on the Trumps. Now, the sources for all of this. Joe Biden’s niece story, New York Post.
The Hunter Biden Navy story, NBC News. The Hunter Biden divorce story, DelawareOnline.com. The Hunter Biden communist-related billions of dollars in scandal money, New York Post. Biden’s daughter’s arrest on drugs and rehab, the New York Post. Every one of these assertions, I did not make a single thing up. It’s out there. It has been reported one time and forgotten, and now it is being swept under the rug and totally ignored.
While the world that Trump and the Republicans live in features these same people hiding all of this baggage about their candidates on the Democrat side, using every trick in the book (including bullying) to find what may not even exist on the Trump family or the Trump children.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Eric Trump was on the Fox Business Network today I think with Stuart Varney. And Eric Trump said that Democrats in the House have subpoenaed the debit card records of Tiffany Trump for when she was 22 years old. They’re trying to get credit card records for guests at the Trump D.C. hotel. ‘Cause you know why? They want to know who’s staying at Trump’s hotel and whether they’ve ordered a racy movie or ordered red meat from room service or whatever else.
You may say, “Rush, that stuff you did on Biden, that’s creepy. You shouldn’t have done that.” Folks, you have to know what is being ignored and what they’re doing and attempting to do, continuing to attempt to do not just to Trump, but his entire family. They’re literally using as much power of the United States federal government as they can marshal to literally destroy and ruin an American family while lying and ignoring so much that is negative and harmful that the Democrat Party has done and wants to continue doing to this country.
You know, Trump gets mocked all the time for being an attention seeking buffoon. You know what the irony is? He doesn’t need any fame or attention. Donald Trump arrived at the Republican primary process already world famous. He was already as famous as he could possibly be. He could not gain any more fame. He could not gain any more notoriety. He couldn’t get noticed any more than he already was or is.
Something else. Donald Trump doesn’t need any of this grief that he’s getting. Nobody does, but Donald Trump, my point is he doesn’t need this. He doesn’t need to put up with this. The conclusion is he’s actually attempting to do what he says: Make America Great Again.
Biden on the other hand, is doing what he only knows. Biden’s a career Washington swamp dweller doing the only thing he knows: politics. He’s in the race solely to have the light of attention and fame back on him, seeking notoriety, seeking to be the gigantic Trump dragon slayer.
Eric Swalwell is a Joe Biden-in-waiting. One of these guys that’s never done anything in his life except live and work in Washington. Take him outside of Washington, transplant him anywhere in the country and say, “You’re on your own, buddy, go make a living,” and they wouldn’t know what to do, unless some former donor came along and gave him a no-show job. Obama, ditto.
There’s not a single thing any of these people have ever done in the private sector. I don’t like that term. There isn’t a single thing they’ve done in the main U.S. economy. They are lifetime politicians, lifetime manipulators, lifetime phonies! That’s the culture that they’re a part of. And if they’re on the Democrat side, then everything that is potentially harmful about ’em gets ignored or covered up.
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: So during the obscene profit time-out here at the top of the hour, the one that just ended, I went back to the Grooveyard of Forgotten News stories, and I found something nearly almost two years ago, almost exactly two years ago. You ready for this? May 19th in 2017, here is the headline in the Los Angeles Times: “If Trump Thinks That He Can Get More Than 3% Economic Growth, He Is Dreaming.” This was written by some opinion columnist named Michael Hiltzik. “With the political world deeply focused on the question of whether the Trump administration comprises a gang of Russian pawns…”
Can I read this to you again? “With the political world deeply focused on the question of whether the Trump administration comprises a gang of Russian pawns,” the LA Times, May 2017, the same month that Mueller was appointed, if I’m not mistaken, “less attention has been devoted to more mundane questions, such as what ever happened to Trump’s economic policy? As it happens, economists are keeping their eye on that ball, and their conclusion is that it’s in a bad way.
“More specifically, they recognize that Trump’s policy is aimed heavily at achieving annual economic growth of more than 3%. During the presidential campaign, Trump promised growth of 3.5% a year, and sometimes even 4%… The U.S. hasn’t had sustained real annual growth … of better than 3% since the 1990s.” Trump is “dreaming” if he thinks he can get us up to 3%. This is what I mean about the pessimism, the doom about the future that is a paramount ingredient of Drive-By Media. Just a little reminder here: A 2017 leftist fabrication disguised as an opinion piece.
Michael Hiltzik is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist: Trump will never get to 3% growth. They’re just making this stuff up, and they’re wrong all the time. Our economic growth rate is 3.2%. They said Trump was dreaming; it would never happen. It hasn’t been done since the 1990s and can’t be done again. So Joe Biden’s out lying through his teeth about the American economy today saying that it’s only benefiting the rich. Let me tell you something, Joe. The rich are always doing great.
When the economy is chugging along at 1% growth, the rich are doing great. They’re doing just as great then as they are now. The rich are not enough to sustain economic growth of 3%, old Joe, old buddy, old pal. It takes the vast majority of the American economy doing great, and that’s the people that make the country work! The great unwashed, the great middle class, the people you and the Obama administration abandoned and claimed that the salad days of this country were behind us.
So now they have to lie through their teeth, just like they have to continue lying about Trump at Charlottesville! That is a total lie, what Trump supposedly said there. He never said what they continue to say he said, that there are good people in the neo-Nazi white supremacists. He never said it. He said the exact opposite, and they have no choice but than to continue that lie, because that lie is the foundation of their belief and their attempt to convince everybody else that Trump is a reprobate, that Trump is a white nationalist, white supremacist populist.
Charlottesville is their “evidence,” and they’re making it up. They are continuing to lie about it. Trump never said what they said he said. They’ve taken him out of context, and they continue to do so. So what Joe Biden is doing, Joe Biden is literally running against the United States economy! You can say he’s running against the man most responsible for creating it. And, by the way, don’t tell me it’s anybody else. Trump’s the only guy, apparently, that thought we could come back to 3% growth, because when he announced it, everybody made fun of him!
Everybody lampooned him and laughed at him, said it couldn’t happen; Trump’s dreaming. So apparently Trump’s one of the few who thought it could happen. So in this case, I think it’s appropriate to credit Trump for it. Even though the people that really make it happen are you. I mean, the American economy is nothing but the American people engaging in commerce — and as I say, consumer spending is at an all-time high, nearly a record high. That means people have disposable income. Their savings are increasing too.
Everything that’s happening in the U.S. economy, on balance, is good and has not happened in a long time because the media, the Democrat Party have been telling people for 25 or 30 years — ever since Reagan — that it can’t happen again, that the Reagan years were phony anyway. So Joe Biden is running against a robust economy. He’s running against the man most responsible for it. He’s running against the man who fixed what he and Obama broke. Joe Biden, proud liberal: Thrilled with the Obama economy, deeply troubled with the Trump economy.
(Snort!) That’s his platform? Remember Joe’s recovery summer? (interruption) Oh, you forgot about this? Yeah, the Obama economy was so bad that Obama promised that we were gonna start picking up jobs at 400,000 a month to make up for the jobs lost after the financial crisis, and he put Biden in charge of it. It was called the “recovery summer,” and Joe Biden was gonna go out there and show everybody how this is done, except Joe Biden is clueless.

Six ‘Major’ Life Events Joe Biden Lied About
Joe Biden can barely speak coherently now, but over the past few decades in politics, Biden has told some massive whoppers about himself that just never occurred.

Joe Biden has spent decades in politics getting rich, and now he wants to be president. However, during those decades, he’s told some major whoppers about his life, which the media seems happy to ignore.
The Washington Examiner compiled a list of six lies Creepy Uncle Joe has told about ‘major events’ in his life… that never happened:
Joe Biden claimed twice recently that he met with Parkland, Florida, shooting survivors when he was vice president, despite the fact that he was already out of office when the attack took place.
His campaign said Biden misspoke and was referring to a different meeting he had after the Sandy Hook shooting. But the flub was reminiscent of Biden’s past misstatements and his tendency to embellish biographical details.
In 1988, Biden was forced to drop out of the presidential race after he was found to have exaggerated his academic record, plagiarized a law school essay, and used quotes from other politicians in his speeches without attribution.
But these are not the only questionable claims Biden has made. Here are six other times Biden was caught embellishing his biography:
Biden said his helicopter was “forced down” near Osama bin Laden’s lair in Afghanistan
Biden claimed in multiple speeches in 2008 that he knew where Osama bin Laden was hiding because his helicopter had been “forced down” nearby in the mountains of Afghanistan.
“If you want to know where al Qaeda lives, you want to know where bin Laden is, come back to Afghanistan with me,” said Biden. “Come back to the area where my helicopter was forced down with a three-star general and three senators at 10,500 feet in the middle of those mountains. I can tell you where they are.” In another speech, he claimed al Qaeda is “in the mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan … where my helicopter was recently forced down.”
He later referred to “the superhighway of terror between Pakistan and Afghanistan where my helicopter was forced down.”
“John McCain wants to know where bin Laden and the gates of Hell are? I can tell him where,” said Biden.
The helicopter actually landed to wait out a snowstorm, according to the Associated Press.
Biden, John Kerry, and Chuck Hagel were on a Senate junket in Afghanistan when their helicopter crossed paths with the storm, according to reports. The pilot landed as a precaution, and a U.S. military convoy picked up the senators and took them to the main American airbase.
“Other than getting a little cold, it was fine,” Kerry told the AP when asked about the incident. “We were going to send Biden out to fight the Taliban with snowballs,” he joked.
Biden said he was a coal miner
While running for president in 2008, Biden told the United Mine Workers that he was a coal miner.
“I hope you won’t hold it against me, but I am a hard-coal miner, anthracite coal, Scranton, Pennsylvania,” Biden said. “It’s nice to be back in coal country. It’s a different accent [in Virginia], but it’s the same deal. We were taught that our faith and our family was the only really important thing, and our faith and our family informed everything we did.”
The Biden campaign later told the AP that his comment was a “joke.” But it echoed another false claim he had made about coming from a family of coal miners during his 1988 campaign.
In a 1988 speech, Biden referred to “my ancestors, who worked in the coal mines of Northeast Pennsylvania and would come up after 12 hours and play football for four hours.” That line was plagiarized from a speech by British politician Neil Kinnock, whose family actually did work in the mines.
In 2004, Biden acknowledged that he did not have family members who worked in mining.
“Hell, I might be president now if it weren’t for the fact I said I had an uncle who was a coal miner. Turns out I didn’t have anybody in the coal mines, you know what I mean? I tried that crap — it didn’t work,” he said during an interview with Jon Stewart.
Biden said he was “shot at” in Iraq
In 2007, Biden claimed he was “shot at” during the Iraq War while visiting the Green Zone, the heavily guarded area in the middle of Baghdad where the United States embassy is based.
“Let’s start telling the truth,” he said. “Number one, you take all the troops out — you better have helicopters ready to take those 3,000 civilians inside the Green Zone, where I have been seven times and shot at.”
When asked for details about the shooting, a Biden campaign aide told the Hill that the then-senator was staying at a hotel in the Green Zone when a mortar landed several hundred yards away.
“A soldier came by to explain what happened and said if the mortar fire continued, they would need to proceed to a shelter,” the aide said.
Biden said he called Slobodan Milošević a “damn war criminal” to his face
Biden met with Serbian leader Slobodan Milošević in 1993, at the height of the siege of Sarajevo. According to Biden’s book Promises to Keep, when Milošević asked what he thought about him, Biden responded: “I think you’re a damn war criminal and you should be tried as one.”
In 2008, Biden aide Ted Kaufman, who was at the meeting and also worked on Biden’s 2008 campaign, told the Washington Post that the account was accurate. However, three other Biden aides who were at the meeting declined to corroborate the story.
John Ritch, a senate aide who attended the Milošević meeting, told the Post he did not recall Biden making such a dramatic pronouncement.
“The legend grows,” said Ritch. “But Biden certainly introduced into the conversation the concept that Milošević was a war criminal. Milošević reacted with aplomb.”
Biden said he participated in sit-ins at segregated restaurants and movie theaters
In the 1970s and 1980s, Biden regularly claimed to have been an activist in the civil rights movement and said he participated in sit-ins along U.S. Route 40 in Delaware in 1961.
”When I was 17 years old, I participated in sit-ins to desegregate restaurants and movie houses in my state, and my stomach turned upon hearing the voices of Faubus and Barnett, and my soul raged upon seeing the dogs of Bull Connor,” said Biden in 1983.
Biden also claimed to have organized a boycott of a segregated restaurant in Wilmington called The Pit when he was in high school after the restaurant refused to serve a black member of his football team. “I organized a civil rights boycott because they wouldn’t serve black kids. One of our football players was black and we went there and they said they wouldn’t serve him. And I said to the others, ‘Hey, we can’t go in there.’ So we all left,” said Biden.
The football player contradicted Biden’s account and said Biden was not aware of the incident until later.
“They weren’t aware of what happened,” said the football player in 1987. “I was only 16 then. It was my problem and my battle for me to work out. They were oblivious to it until later.”
When Biden dropped out of the 1988 presidential race amid his plagiarism scandal, he said the extent of his civil rights participation was working at an all-black swimming pool for a summer in college. “During the 1960s, I was in fact very concerned about the civil rights movement. I was not an activist. I worked at an all-black swimming pool in the east side of Wilmington, Delaware,” he said. “I was involved in what they were thinking, what they were feeling. But I was not out marching. I was not down in Selma. I was not anywhere else. I was a suburbanite kid who got a dose of exposure to what was happening to black Americans.”
Biden said he criticized President George W. Bush during lengthy private meetings in the Oval Office
Biden claimed in 2009 that he spent “a lot of hours alone” with President George W. Bush and bluntly rebuked the president over his foreign policy decisions.
“I remember President Bush saying to me one time in the Oval Office,” Biden told CNN, “‘Well, Joe,’ he said, ‘I’m a leader.’ And I said: ‘Mr. President, turn around and look behind you. No one is following.’”
Bush aides told Fox News in 2009 that they did not recall Biden ever meeting alone with the president or making such a comment.
“The president would never sit through two hours of Joe Biden,” Candida P. Wolff, Bush’s White House liaison to Congress, told Fox News. “I don’t ever remember Biden being in the Oval. He was such a blowhard on all that stuff — there wasn’t a reason to bring him in.”
Of course, there are many others.. but we’re all supposed to “swallow” these, hook line and sinker, so that the Biden family can continue to cut deals and enrich themselves through power.
Yeah… right.
