Joe BidenCongratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!

Thu Aug 1, 2019, 02:07 PM

 

If you can't lift yourself up

without tearing someone else down, you are not what I consider to be presidential material.

We already have a president who got there by doing that, and I am not pleased with the results.

2. You got that right!

 

I'm disgusted with Kirsten Gillibrand, Kamala Harris, Julian Castro, Bill DeBlasio and Cory Booker. After they went after Obama, that was it for me. From what I've heard, Harris' planned attack on Biden has cost her. I have worked in campaigns with a lot of older African American voters. They're not going to like the snarky performances last night.

3. Every single debate is going to involve every single candidate going after someone else.

 

Every single candidate. Every single debate. Every single election cycle.

So, your only option is to not vote.

4. I'm not naming names, but

 

several candidates are not using this tactic. Several are doing almost nothing but this.

8. I said I'm not naming names.

 

And criticism is not the same as attacking. There's a lot of semantics involved in this type of discussion.

In general, some of the lower ranked candidates are doing what they think they have to do to get noticed. I'm saying that they shouldn't have to do that.

9. Trump is a schoolyard asshole.

 

He knows nothing about a serious debate. I doubt he will debate any of our candidates if they are nominated. We are not the clown car of the rebublicans he was debating in '16. He will simple insult them on Twitter.

13. Mr. Bll voiced my opinion

 

To Mr. Bill...........Oh, I agree with you 100%. I won't vote for anyone that tears another candidate down. We have lots of good candidates and Oh, my gosh, lots of things we need to fight for but we need to do it all together to win the WH. We need to focus on getting rid of DJT and telling America how we're going to do it!!
