  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What's wrong with Joe Biden?

CCW's comment is germane to the picture. Those who hate Trump intensely will vote for anyone else. But there are a lot of people in the middle who are, or who would be should the media ever give Biden's dementia 1/10th the coverage it would get were it Trump's neurological health in question, very alarmed at Biden's state of mind. He clearly is not mentally up to the task of the presidency.
He's no worse in that regard than Trump, so I don't see how it makes a difference.

This article is about the physical health of Biden not about how much you hate Trump. Please go start another thread if you don't have anything constructive to offer.
I think her comment was entirely appropriate-she was answering a poster who argued that Biden could not win since he would be perceived as “unfit”.

She made the obvious and entirely on topic point - Trump is unfit and yet won.

If there was this much concern for the mental health of the presidential candidates in 2016, then we wouldn't have a President who thinks the noise from wind turbines causes cancer and the Continental Army took over airports during the Revolutionary War. According to the current Republican President, there's a border wall surrounding the city of San Antonio, Texas and Paris, France is in Germany.
Ouch, well played, well played.

I don't think they're treated equally in the Dem party either. They don't mind discriminating against Christians only.
I haven't seen that Christians are discriminated against by the Democratic Party.

'member when Trump supporters complained about Democrats magnifying his every gaffe and misspoken statement?

Does making it a whataboutism to Trump help?

What do you mean when? It has never stopped.

However, Trump has never forgot his name, what day of the week it is, or what office he is running for.

I'm not making it a whataboutism. Just commenting on the irony of you complaining about how Democrats treat Trump unfairly by attacking him every time he misspeaks, then turning around and doing exactly the same thing to Biden.

However, Trump has never forgot his name, what day of the week it is, or what office he is running for.
No, he's never done those specific things. However, he's messed up other, equally simple, statements and tasks. Note that this is not a defense of Biden. Just an observation that there doesn't appear to be a discernible difference between Biden and Trump when it comes to mental acuity. Therefore, there doesn't seem to be much sense in either side questioning the opposing candidate's fitness for office on those grounds. In other words, if Biden's mental (dis)abilities disqualify him from office in your eyes, then Trump's should disqualify him as well.

Trump isn't fit to be president. But for some horrible reason, he's the president.

The exact same thing that many will say regarding Biden if he (happens by a long shot) to get in there.

Why am I not surprised?.....sigh......It is not at all difficult to go start a 'hate Trump' thread....the fact that no one will join in is not my problem.

I don't understand one thing. Even if one "hates" Trump, wouldn't Trump be better for religious freedom than the Democrats?

I don’t have dementia .. and it was only 3 years ago .. I don’t remember if I had less religious freedom to practice my faith under democrat ( President Obama) any less than now. The idea that under democrat Americans will have less religious freedom is a made up crisis by the right.

Those who has concern about Biden … his gaffe.. how he doesn’t remember .. I would suggest you google up some of the debate highlight between Biden vs Ryan debate from 2012. That debate was tough… Speaker Ryan is one the best debater and a guy who knows his number and policy.. at that time economy was not good.. unemployment was 8% .. 3 consecutive year no GDP growth.. yet Biden won the debate .. google some post-debate spin .. you will see the GPO spine was Biden was disrespectful to Ryan because he was laughing or rolling his eyes while Ryan spoke ( imagine from 2012 to now where we are as nation)
