Kopfschmerzens: Don't forget he has the right to fire them the question is what is the motive? until that question is answered we can only speculate. For some of us that voted him in 2016 this is one of the things we regret. that rash attitude to decisions and free rolling unbecoming of the office of the greatest leader of the free world. Has he disappointed me in some ways? Hell yeah 1 Like |

garetz: Trump has finally stopped taking hydroxychloroquine, when will you start taking yours? Trump says he's no longer taking hydroxychloroquine https://www.foxnews.com/us/trump-says-hes-no-longer-taking-anti-malaria-drug-hydroxychloroquine President Trump said that he is no longer on hydroxychloroquine, the anti-malarial drug he has been taking for several weeks as a treatment to ward off the coronavirus. “Finished, just finished,” Trump told “Full Measure with Sharyl Attkisson” during an interview that aired Sunday on Sinclair Broadcasting. “And by the way, I’m still here. To the best of my knowledge, here I am.” Last Monday, Trump revealed he had started taking the drug “a couple of weeks ago.” |

Davida33: Ok Sir. The Naija that i am from is not that language you described it. Are there challenges like every other developing nation? of course! America that you are hyping did not transform overnight. There are extremely poor, corrupt and sick people there too. Will naija get there someday? Yes i believe so but with a lot of work from both citizens like you and leaders. 1 Like 1 Share |

AfonjaBoston: The fact this book was written and published before the pandemic took hold kind of makes it preemptive and requiring an update. It does not explicitly answer the question you posed but.....

Davida33:Not a description of the Nigeria I know because that would make Nigerians the shit that lives in holes, and I'm certain you would not agree you are shit. You've also, in one sentence, show how limited your knowledge of America is and how the winner of elections there is usually the "highest bidder". |

budaatum: I haven't seen or read the book but lately i have taken keen interest in knowing who the author is before i even try to read. There is so much bias everywhere. |
Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by budaatum: 3:19pm On May 25, 2020 |
AfonjaBoston:Of course there is bias. But there's no harm in facts unless one thinks made up 'facts' are the equal of verifiable evidence based one's. |

IF Biden wins the election watch how Dems will go back to doing the things they fought the Repubs against and watch how the same Repubs will fight against Dems on issues they supported DT. Its a hilarious circus show in Washington 1 Like |

AfonjaBoston:Sounds to me like judging a book by it's cover, or, author, in your case, whereby a messenger could make you not even bother considering the message, while some would want to know what the message might be, regardless, because they are more than capable of separating wheat from dross. Anyway, here's a short version of the book. A person who spends so much time tweeting and watching Fox News would make me wonder if they are spending enough time doing their job, especially if performance on said job is unastounding or very abysmal. 1 Like |

budaatum: I will reiterate i am an undecided voter and this is why. There is so much rhetoric coming from both sides . Dems accusing Repubs of being fixated on fox news while they will vehemently disagree they are also fed by CNN. Liberal media promotes books and guests that are antagonistic of DT while fox news does the reverse. You know where i get my facts from in making my decisions? I pull data of what the contestants has said in the past and juxtapose with their actions while in office. I also pull reports from legit non-partisan watchdogs and i also check my own life and family. Have we made any significant progress based off policies formulated by the govt. Facts just like truths are relative! Researchers and politicians do it all the time. The only thing that is sure is absolute truth. If not for the pandemic DT would have had strolled without sweat to winning a 2nd term. The economy was solid based off reports but a lot of people will also tell you it was so based off Obama's work and that he did great too in his first term Different folks different argument. He can watch fox news all day and tweet it's not a crime. The President is not the foot on ground his advisors and pplivies are. Actually the less i see a President on tv the more relaxed i am lol my opinion That is one aspect i don't agree with DT he comes off as bullish, childish and immature when he is tweeting but his supporters will tell you he is not politically correct and its a normal way of life to react when you been accused 2 Likes |

AfonjaBoston:We unfortunately do not make decisions based on "absolute truths", since there's no such thing when it comes to politicians. We can't after all know for certain who would be the better president until we see them be president. In most instances truth and facts are not relative. What is relative is what one believes or not, but that does not change the facts, which intelligent people can't get enough of so they don't go believing untruths. 1 Like |

AfonjaBoston:The evidence does suggest the economy had been growing since Obama. The evidence even suggests it was growing faster under Obama than under Trump. But we all can see for ourselves where the economy is at if we bother to look. Below is a chart showing the economy was screwed up on Obama's watch (if all facts and truths are equal, that is). If it were left to me, I'd take him to the bottom of the river and shoot him.

Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by Abbeybailey(m): 4:34pm On May 25, 2020 |
AfonjaBoston:America was at the precipice of depression when Obama came in on Jan 20, 2019 because towards the end of Bush Jnr tenure, America was losing an average of 700. 000 jobs monthly and all the Blue Chips companies were going belly up. The three major car manufacturers were about to go bankrupt. Thanks to Obama who righted everything and for 8 consecutive years the economy was booming and we gained over 14 million jobs. Compared that to now with 40 million Americans filling for unemployment benefits and many millions more on the queue. Almost 20% unemployment rate and and will probably go up. Almost 100.000 Americans dead and sadly many more to die while the president was golfing on memorial day weekend. No visit from trump to Arlington National cemetery. One thing Americans answers to every election is ARE WE BETTER OFF NOW THAN FOUR YEARS AGO ?. That's the decider for me not to talk about how many ugly things that Trump vomitted out of his mouth or childish behavior. I will vote for a Dog over an avowed Nazi loving President. |

Abbeybailey: The bolded must have been a typo. Yes Obama did great in his first term compared to his second. Deep down inside you do you think the polls will be in favor of Biden if there was no coronavirus? I will not be surprised if i mean if Biden wins and Repubs starting crying foul that China influenced the election Its monkey chop babana matter from both sides |
Re: American Politics Thread - 2024 Elections — Biden’s Presidency! by Abbeybailey(m): 4:41pm On May 25, 2020 |
AfonjaBoston:Tell me what Obama did wrong in his second term. You didn't even address the main issues I posted to you. Bush Snr messed up the economy and Clinton cleaned that up the same way FDR cleaned up Herbert Hoover mess up in the 30s. Do you see the pattern of Democratic Presidents cleaning up the Republican presidents mess. Are you telling me America was not close depression in the later part of George Bush presidency due to Iraq and Afghanistan wars ?. Common be serious. |

AfonjaBoston:That's A typo. Obama was in 2009. The key question is that America was losing 6 to 700.000 monthly. I know that damn well because I was in the midst of it and i lost over 80% of my portfolio and thank God for Obama. I got everything back and some more. |
