That's hilarious! Oh wait, you were serious.
Can you provide an example of Trump being venomous when answering a question? Can you provide examples of the lies he told? How did he deceive?
Lastly, where did he touch you?

LOL. So you enjoy hearing proven lies and excuses while just pretending that Quid pro Joe is doing a swell job.

Will be posting lies about Trump election fraud. I have to find out if Trump took over a million dollars from China.
I do not care if posters want a change in government, but believing in Trump to do this after his track record,

RE: Biden*s CNN Townhall
The Most Shameful and Sobering Commentary of All on Joe Biden Has Just Revealed Itself
Quote:President Joe Biden’s town hall Thursday night on CNN – the third he’s done with Democrat apologist network in a year’s time – was an undeniable train wreck of a display, with Biden at times weirdly whispering some of his answers, making a demonstrably false claim about a “border visit” that never happened, and then quite literally mocking the concept of freedom at another point during the invitation-only (media code for “highly scripted”) event.
There was also the embarrassing sidenote about how his infamous behind-the-scenes handlers were actually fact-checking him in real-time during the town hall, as evidenced by tweets from reporters noting (questionable) clarifications and corrections from frantic (and anonymous) White House spokespeople.
Total cluster, no question about it.
I bring up all this because the post-town hall TV ratings have just been released, and it occurred to me in reading about them what they unintentionally confirmed about the Biden administration for reasons I’ll get to in just a moment:
That CNN is the only thing Biden has been able to successfully “rescue” (albeit temporarily for one night, much in the same way an escort, ahem, “rescues” her client) since he took office in January indeed reveals an absolutely shameful and sobering commentary on this administration.
First, let’s start with considering what kind of paltry “rescue” this was. As Fox News media reporter Wulfsohn noted (if you read between the lines), even with Biden giving CNN their best numbers in nearly a month, they still badly trailed behind normally scheduled programming on rival cable news networks. This is not supposed to happen for town hall and debate-style broadcasts that involve the President of the United States, especially in times like these and with the knowledge in mind that people are desperate for answers from Biden considering he rarely makes himself available for questions.
So even in “rescuing” CNN for a night, Biden can’t even get that right.
But beyond that, think of his failures on other matters to date:
– He hasn’t rescued the economy; in fact, he’s undone much of the progress that was made under the Trump administration, with people leaving the workforce in record numbers for a variety of reasons, among them being scared sh**less by the fearmongering coming from Democrats including Biden. There’s also the inconvenient matter of inflation, the numbers of which are staggering for the so-called “recovery” President.
– He hasn’t rescued the country from the pandemic; instead he’s divided it with dictatorial coronavirus vaccine mandates while practically flashing his middle finger at those who do not comply, and then turning around and insulting our intelligence when he doesn’t follow the rules he sets for others.
– He hasn’t rescued every American who wants to be rescued from Afghanistan, something he promised would happen by August 31st. Further, we’ve recently learned that the administration lied about the numbers of stranded Americans left in the country. False narratives about the “most successful rescue effort ever” must be maintained, of course.
– He hasn’t rescued the southern border; he actually made it worse even before he was sworn in with comments made during the presidential campaign that were the equivalent of him placing a giant “Welcome” billboard at the Texas/Mexico border that read “our doors are wide open.” Worse, he put Vice President Kamala Harris in charge of the border crisis, and we all see the results of that terrible decision.
I could go on and on, but I think the point has been made.
Joe Biden has been a miserable failure so far at rescuing this country from what ails it. The reality of the matter is that his problems by and large are self-inflicted, with the American people bearing the brunt of the harsh consequences for them. This is what happens when you rely on shadowy co-presidents and self-important wokesters to tell you how to run things rather than manning up and actually making your own decisions based on careful considerations of all the facts.
One final thing: Just how does a good President “rescue” his country? Not by issuing record numbers of executive orders and not by instructing his departments to lord over the peasants in a kingly fashion. A good President rescues his country by working with Congress to help set the conditions and tweak the framework that will help grease the wheels that help America churn and individuals to chart their own course – and then he gets the hell out of the way.
Tucker Carlson was spot-on earlier this week when he suggested frustrated Americans “lower their expectations” – because this is Joe Biden’s America.
The 2022 midterms and the 2024 presidential election cannot come soon enough, as far as I’m concerned, because the rescue America really needs right now is a rescuing from Joe Biden.

RE: Biden*s CNN Townhall
Chris Wallace's Commentary on Jen Psaki Devolves Into Absolute Insanity
Quote:If anyone is still under the impression that Fox News’ Chris Wallace is a fair-minded individual just calling balls and strikes, I bring evidence today that should thoroughly disabuse you of that notion.
While appearing on Sandra Smith’s daytime news show, Wallace was asked to discuss the fact that Jen Psaki doubled down on Joe Biden’s CNN town hall lie that he had visited the border in the past. As RedState reported, the president’s assertion was completely untrue. Further, the idea that him flying into El Paso, TX, in order to drive north once constitutes a visit to the border is laughable. Yet, that’s what Psaki tried to claim.
What was Wallace’s response? He brushed it off and proclaimed Psaki is “one of the best press secretaries ever.”
There are two things to note here, in my view. One, Wallace’s assertion that Psaki is one of the “best” press secretaries ever just doesn’t pass muster. She’s easily flustered, often unprepared (hence the “circle back” meme), and lies continually (see here, here, and here). Now, to be fair, is she good at lying for the president? Yes, she’s pretty good at it and has learned to mix snark and outrage in order to push false narratives to a largely compliant press corps.
But does being good at lying make one a good press secretary? I don’t think so, and I don’t think Wallace thinks so — given he’s never been so kind in the past to Republican press secretaries who are good at spin. Rather, I think he’s just a partisan hack who can find little fault with the current White House because he’s sympathetic to it.
Take Kayleigh McEnany, who served under Donald Trump as a press secretary, as an example. McEnany was objectively excellent at her job regardless of what one thought about the president. She was highly prepared, organized, and always had answers for even the most random, politically biased questions. She didn’t tell reporters over and over that she’ll “circle back.” McEnany even often had visual aids to make her points.
Did Wallace ever praise her for being good at her job? No, instead he trashed her as intellectually dishonest and hostile to the press corps. I’d quibble with that characterization, but if dishonesty and hostility were a problem for Wallace in regards to McEnany, why is it not in regards to Psaki? Instead, the Fox News Sunday host praises the latter and has rarely, if ever, mustered an ounce of criticism toward her.
That’s not a coincidence, and it leaves me asking exactly what Fox News is doing at this point. Do they want to lose their audience? Perhaps they believe they can carve out a new niche and be CNN-lite, but I have a feeling that won’t work out very well. To the extent that the network is doing well, it’s almost solely due to its primetime hosts and afternoon shows like “The Five.” The executives over there should probably recognize where their bread is buttered, because it’s not by Chris Wallace insulting everyone’s intelligence with praise of a dishonest hack like Jen Psaki.

I want to see him answer a question that wasn’t pre-selected and the pre-selected answer given to him.

Chris Wallace is an arrogant tool. If he truly believes that then he’s either a shill or just plain dumb.

Those Rose Colored glasses you are wearing are not a good look. Might want to pull your head out and actually see the decay that is going on before your eyes. This guy could poor piss out of a boot with the directions written on the heel.
Other than covid, which to date over 356k dead since the covid slayer took office. This clown has created every crises he has handled. Afghanistan, Oil and gas prices, Border disaster, Unemployment, Inflation, etc
All this guy is good at is writing checks we can't cover. Exploding the national debt. Lying through his fake teeth running his mouth and jumping to conclusions without even having the full story.
