Because what we've seen from congress in recent history is reasonable, correct? The representatives and senators on both sides of the aisle are making decisions based on what's best for the country, rather than what benefits them the most?

Saying it's the same as wanting to change how we elect our Presidents is arguably thr dumbest thing uttered in this thread, but the electoral college is also broken as shit, and should be reworked as well.


You’re saying that the supreme court should be able to decide whether or not a person can run for president—allowing them to choose the president is not much of a stretch from this point, although I will agree with you that the overall reasoning is fucking dumb.

Congress is a political body. The supreme court is a judicial body. The difference shouldn’t be difficult to understand, it doesn’t matter whether or not you or I agree with the decisions of congress, putting those political decisions in the hands of a judicial body is idiocy. Felix Frankfurter spoke about these differences and warned against giving the supreme court political supremacy.

So you're of the mindset that it doesn't matter how broken something is, it should just never be fixed? I'm open to discussion and listening to what alternatives you have to offer, but at the moment our elected representatives and senators are a bunch of self-serving aholes that couldn't give two shits about the country, and anyone with a brain bigger than a peanut can realize that's a problem.

Also, political supremacy, what crack pipe are you smoking? On the off chance a President commits an offense that's worthy of impeachment (like selling out allied countries or ya know, treason), having a body that doesn't only care about saving their own ass vote is "political supremacy". Holy fucking boogeyman Batman. I hate change because it doesn't benefit my party rump rump rump

I've seen your posts lol. You were an avid Trump supporter, and you've posted nonsense since before and after the orange morons loss.


No you haven't.
I've never posted anything that stated I'm in support of trump. I never voted for him, and I don't believe he belongs in politics.
I have however, stated that his administration (arguably) did try to accomplish SOME bipartisan positives (if even very few at that)... mainly to argue against the fact that he did NOTHING good.

If I say Hitler was a great speaker, that does not mean I support him / agree with him / or that am a nazi lol.

Again, you continue to have a biased opinion on things (such as myself) with your selective comprehension.

I’m of the mindset that you don’t put out a fire with gasoline. Our country’s ills, few as they actually are in comparison to the rest of the world, seem to me a problem owing much more to the public than to any politician. This hollywood twitter culture of left vs right is destroying our country, and it’s almost completely fabricated. When I introduce two people I don’t consider whether or not their political differences will create a problem, I only consider whether either party is stupid enough to imagine that their political differences could create a problem. It’s fucking stupid to hate someone for disagreeing with you, but that’s where we are currently.

Hitler actually did overthrow a legitimate election.


When tards have zero clue what theyre talking about. "Deh omg ppl dieded" When a bunch of mentally inept white people literally stormed our democracy and killed people. Please keep getting triggered over the comparisons to hitler and trump though everyone they arent stopping as long as history doesnt stop.

Shocking, so you have absolutely nothing to contribute other than insults, who'd have guess.

The irony of your last sentence is almost too good. We have learned that people on opposite sides of the political spectrum now not only disagree with one another, they do actually hate and wish harm on those they disagree with. However, it's a shocking number of Republicans who feel this way about Democrats and only a small number of Democrats who feel the reverse. I don't hate any of you, I just think you're easily manipulated shit for brains.

Your first post in this conversation was saying that Biden only beat the superior Trump because of people twisting information. Please tell me what I was supposed to infer from that? I know, i know, it's so hard for you people to find any level of consistency with the nonsense you say. Again, a monkey shitting in a hat would have been a better option. Information didnt need to be twisted, just needed to listen to Trump talk for five minutes and any sane person would get the idea.

Your idea of contribution is revolution, so by that measure you are correct, I have no contribution to make.

Your last point is ridiculous. Modern day McCarthyism is targeting conservatives overwhelmingly, which obviously just fuels their hatred for you and furthers the divide. It’s not fucking working, obviously, but your solution, as always, is to double down. Great.

How are you just going to add "beat the superior trump" to my comment. lmao. I even followed my snark comment with "not a trump supporter".

Another fine example of "twisting information" and your selective comprehension.

I try being consistent in being critical of BOTH. In their negatives and positives. Unlike the MSM & most "sources" people got their information from.

Lets just continue to ignore all of Biden's negatives when we can focus on Trumps. I can't blame that on the politicians when that's what the general public wants and accepts. "Atleast he's not evil orange man"

As opposed to fear mongering and no solution, what a shock. Anything involving any slight change will lead to the downfall of the nation, so let's just stand here jerking off as the country goes up in flames, since doing absolutely nothing and acting superior is a MUCH better alternative.

As always, even the mention of change is enough to bring a Republican to arms, even when it's attempting to discuss a change or ask for opinions on a system that's irrevocably broken. Welcome to the United States boys and girls.

Don't bother with a response, I've spent long enough slumming with the shit sippers of PARD. Good day.

Are you too stupid to understand the weight of your own comments? You implied heavily, and now you're outright saying it, that Biden was a worse candidate who only won through manipulation, hence Trump was a superior candidate... I know that cause and effect, process of elimination, or even arithmetic is clearly outside your grasp, but holy shit Batman.

For the record, I have never once ignored Bidens flaws or said he's s good candidate, I've said the exact opposite more times than I can count, but again, this isn't a conversation based in reality, you're not capable of those.

Comparing Hitler to Trump is comic hyperbole. I don't think many people get triggered by it, it's an incredibly stupid take.
