US Elections (& Politics) :)

Or the left hates because their neurons are misfiring. Liberalism could very well be some type of mental defect.

Or, many of them grew up in the "you're all special and everyone gets a trophy" age, where they've gotten used to getting anything they want and think that should be how life works, so now they are still just throwing the worlds longest temper tantrum that they didn't want trump and their voice apparently didn't matter in the equation. They should get what they want because they are special, everyone else be damned.
 
The downward spiral of Portland continues.

Portland sees 150-round shooting at apartment building, as crowds continue violent clashes with police

City saw a second, peaceful march early Sunday and violence is 'abating,' say DHS and Portland police

More than 150 rounds were fired and one woman was shot in Portland on Friday night while protesters on Saturday – some of whom appeared to impersonate press – threw glass bottles and shined lasers at city police officers sent to quell the nighttime unrest witnessed for more than two months straight.

Saturday marked the third night of federal and state law enforcement cooperation in Portland, as the Department of Homeland Security continues to weigh plans to withdraw from the liberal Oregon city. It was the 64th straight day of violent demonstrations and rioting in Portland.

A shooting rang out about 11:08 p.m. Friday outside an apartment building near the 600 Block of NE 87th Avenue. The Portland Police Bureau said in an update Saturday that more than 150 rounds were fired and bullets struck at least eight occupied apartments and seven vehicles. One round struck a woman in the arm, and responding officers applied a tourniquet before she was transported to the hospital by ambulance with injuries that were not life-threatening.

This is America and it’s a war zone with 150 shots in an apartment complex close to a Christian university. How can we explain that?” Aragon Marks, who lives at the building, told Fox 12 Oregon.

 
Portland Disbanded Police Gun Violence Unit On July 1, Finished Month With Most Homicides In 30+ Years

Portland Democrat Mayor Ted Wheeler announced in June that he was authorizing radical changes to how policing was done in his city, including disbanding the city’s gun violence reduction team. Now the city is grappling with a surge in violent crime.

“Portland police are scrambling to respond to 15 homicides in the city so far in July. That’s the most killings in one month in more than three decades,” The Oregonian reported. “So far this year, 24 people have died in homicides in Portland.”

While the city has been in the national spotlight for violent riots that have occurred for over two months, the newspaper noted that overall person-to-person and property crimes were down compared to past years, but added that “homicides, assaults, burglaries and vandalism are up.”

The Oregonian added that the city had seen a total of 63 shootings in July compared to 28 the year before. Police Chief Chuck Lovell noted late last week that “the bureau was forced to cut its Gun Violence Reduction Team at the direction of the City Council.”

It's racism and extortion with a bit of terrorism sprinkled in.
This is nothing different than what Al Sharpton and Jessie Jackson has been doing to businesses for decades. You don't hear about it because they (businesses) don't want to piss off a certain race. Yes it is extortion, but they are the untouchables.

It is great to see the Cuban Americans standing up to this fascist marxist extortion. They understand it first hand, as there have been some Cuban's that have tried to swim 90 miles to the United States of America to be free of Cuba's repressive socialist government.

Personally, I believe that people should only be allowed to protest in "public" areas or streets and not on "private" property. Use a megaphone if you must but walking up to someone's door when you aren't welcome should be trepassing.

This private property vs public property gets complex when you have massively owned private property...

Example historically of issues with this are in "company towns" where the company owns it all..

But it should not be difficult to understand the boundaries of a man's "castle"... The driveway, walkway, yard is a part of one's castle.

Joe Biden delays his running-mate pick by TWO WEEKS amid worries process has become a mess that has pitted women against women

Joe Biden has delayed naming his vice presidential pick by two weeks amid worries the process has become a mess that has pitted women against woman.

Biden said last week he would announce his running mate the first week of August but that appears unlikely to happen this week as he hasn't narrowed down his pick amid pressure to name a black woman.

But now that's been moved back by two weeks, The Washington Post reported, amid worries from Biden supporters that the process has become 'messier than it should be,' pitting women - and especially black women - against one another.

The delay indicates there is no clear favorite among Biden or his allies to be his running mate.

That is why Biden probably will not pick Karen Bass. She is a Fidel Castro lover and Biden knows Florida will be gone if he chooses her.
 
The reality is there is a lot of truth to that. Satire be damned
So hypothetically:

Dem convention names Biden as the Pres candidate. And by some strange twist of events, Biden's dementia becomes so bad that he has to step down. Now what do the Dems do? Name Sanders? Does Bloomberg buy his way to the nomination? Does the picked VP become the candidate? Or do the Dems keep him on and just say no to all debates, heavily edit any commercials and say no to open interviews that they can't edit. Then if he is elected, then have him step down and the VP takes over?

Good analysis. Any of that is a possibility. I saw some clips of Joe from just February on Hannity's show and boy has Joe gone down hill from that time period. He is indeed fading fast. I do not think that the Democrats can afford for him to debate President Trump. Every week his dementia just gets worse. President Trump constantly goes one on one against an antagonistic press so he is well prepared for the debates.

I can see it now..."Weekend at Bernie's 3" appearing soon at your first Trump vs. Biden debate.....

Biden's slobbering and muttering so incoherently that they strap him to a hand truck, plant a audio speaker in his shirt, put duct tape over his mouth and cover his face with a COVID mask, only his eyes and sweaty forehead are visible, no slobber can be seen..... he's wheeled out to the stage and......

Any ideas out there for who should be speaking into the microphone that connects to the speaker in Biden's shirt?

It's gonna be the best show in town, folks. Grab a seat, your favorite drink, and pass the popcorn.
