How do you make it through a day? It must be hard.

I make it through the day just fine. You all just don't want to hear uncomfortable things.

Seriously? We talk about uncomfortable things here every day of the week. But you say a lot of stuff that's likely fantasy, or at least highly negative. It's why you get pushback so much.

And I'm supposed to care because?

Nobody said you were, smart ass. You b!tch about people pushing back on you, but you bring it on yourself.

None of us have a clue why you're so negative, but it's not a good thing for you. It really doesn't affect the rest of us, we are simply concerned.

It could be just a message board personae.

Perhaps. I'm sure Andy B.'s not so doom and gloom in real life. Kinda like how I hope a certain drunk patent lawyer isn't so much of a prick in real life as well because if he is, how on Earth did someone like the late great Owl#s become friends with him? (But I'm getting off topic.)

Back on topic: From what I've seen, the current front runners on the Dem side are -- I kid you not -- in no particular order -- AOC and...Kamala Harris. (This was on Facebook so take that for what you will. lol)

Much easier here to rant and rave than on Facebook and have my family freak out.

Actually, I do remember you saying that several times in the Spin Room over the years. So I'll say this as your friend: Venting on here is a good thing. Heck, a lot of us do it. I know I certainly have. Just don't go saying anything that will get yourself in trouble. That's it.

I remember several comments from “fsquid” that struck me that way. The image he seemingly projected was the eternal quipster, never taking offense and never concerned with others’ reactions. I admit I wasn’t impressed with that image, and would’ve much preferred to know him as he was.

Looking back, I wonder how much of that image was based on the personality he did have, and how much was based on the personality he wished or wanted to have.

I don’t expect that to happen. But the odds are not zero that it won’t.

Please don’t start this again. You were wrong last time and should know better than to start that all over again.

Try saying SOMETHING comfortable now and then.

His record of governance is in shambles and he is to stupid to realize that there are countless videos of his inaptitude. Plus, tell them that he's lying when he said he grew up with mac and cheese when in fact he had a silver spoon in his mouth like QueMala.

Yep, those photos of him enjoying lunch in a fancy French restaurant with his pals AFTER he forced everyone else to stay home during covid should be enough to piss off lots of people.

Gavin Newscum is toast.

He just doesn’t know it yet.

You can’t be Trump if you’re not Trump. His rediculous Trumpian banter is laughable to anyone with two brain cells to rub together. Look here, even the idiot army never shows up to defend this charlatan.

I was wrong in 2024 when I insisted that he would blow it. He didn't. He amazingly stuck to message for over a year and in doing so and managed to save our nation. I will not ever forget or minimize that.

I was, however, right in 2020 when I said that he was blowing it. You (and many others) have never admitted that - - harping instead on the "he was robbed" excuse. (For the record, he was robbed. But it didn't matter because he singlehandedly turned an unlosable reelection into a close call, in which fraud made the difference.)

Yes, I was wrong in 2024. I haven't forgotten that. Yet I also haven't forgotten the lessons from 2020 that Donald Trump is not infallible. I sense that you have.

Which brings us back to the immediate point: There is no one who can compare to Donald Trump when it comes to trolling. But, in my view, enjoys it way too much. Trolling is all good and fine when the chief result is to cause an entertaining meltdown on the left. Trolling is not so good and fine when the chief result is to undercut your own side. Does Donald Trump know the difference? Does he even care?

We are still a long way from 2028. Yet if Donald Trump shows an inability to control himself, to the detriment of JD Vance (or whoever is the Republican nominee), know that I will NOT hold my tongue so as to avoid hurting your feelings.

Please please! I beg of you. Please don’t hurt my feelings.

20 was Covid’s little gift to America. Not DJT’s fault unless you believe he could have stopped the mail in vote fraud. But make no mistake, it was Covid that kept it close enough to steal.

Take me for instance. I'm a super nice guy here unlike real life.
