Well given that there's a 50/50 chance Biden kicks the bucket if he's elected, it would seem to matter.


I think it's more likely that he goes full senile.

If he hasn't already, that is.

I think he was on the second. I remember snide comments about Nancy being the first female president....

Snark isn't always whataboutism. Instead of claiming why don't they get proof his is?

No. Defense though is usually filled by a serious person. Key word being usually.

I believe that the US ought to stand up for human rights and freedom in the world, just like we did during World War II and the Cold War.

Trump doesnt even knows how to President. He had his uses, but not anymore.

Thanks due the current corona crisis, the powers of the Empire will be increased beyond any previously limits, and Tulsi will inherit those as his sucessor.

How exactly does violating a country's sovereignty promote freedom?

Countries use "national sovreignty" to justify human rights violations all the time. It doesn't mean they are right.
