With zero proof Joe Biden claims the President is going to postpone the election

[miamited]

Hi Ted, it is obvious from your posts that you are a very reasonable and decent person but I have to tell you that I think you are setting yourself for a big disappointment. Biden is not what you think. One event pops into my mind, he seems to like to call people names, tell them not to vote for him and challenge them to a fist fight, not what I would consider respectful, I doubt you would either.

Hi dC,

So, you've got 3 issues with things that Biden has said and done. I'm guessing you don't see any such issues with Trump. Certainly less than three.

God bless,
In Christ, ted

To summarize your point, Biden is no different from Trump when it comes to this kind of thing, so Biden should be given a pass but Trump should never, ever be forgiven.

Wanna think that one over awhile before making it be your final answer?.

You do have a valid point.

Does that mean you would agree that both should be held accountable in the same way?
So what would you propose should be done... in regard to Biden as well as with Trump?

Donald was "held accountable" by being elected president by his followers. Seems that Biden should be "held accountable" in the same way, no?

Hi albion,

Is this you fishing?

No. I guess I just resent it when posters resort to the coy act.

It's nothing for you to worry about.

Hi albion,

I was just rereading your response to me:


I get the impression that it really gnaws at you that someone might not think as you do and see the same value in others that you see.

C'mon, Ted. That's more of the same as I was referring to in my previous post.

Sure, there are concerns regarding Mr. Biden's age, but as I say, that particular concern isn't really of much consequence between the two who are running.

But that's just wishful thinking. Sure, we do not know what tomorrow holds, and anyone, particular someone in his seventies, can fall over with little advanced warning. BUT anyone can look at these two men and know that the one is dynamic, hardworking, a leader--like it or not. And the other one? Many people actually are reluctant to say what Biden's non-stop gaffes, confusion, forgetfulness, disorientation, and so on seem to indicate, but they do see it.

 

[Pommer]

Biden is not what you think.

Biden is not Trump, that is all that matters. -30-

 

[Pommer]

Still much more than Biden recognizes.

Honey I can't find my toothbrush.
Those aren't your real teeth she says.
Remember we pull them out to clean.

You got cameras in Joe’s house, do ya? Pffft.

Hi MM,

I'm probably getting senile myself. Someone just recently as best I recall, started a thread that they were going to try, and was asking that the rest of us try, to be more thoughtful and considerate in our political postings. I'll have to see if I can remember who started that thread and move this post over there as an example of people who just make stuff up out of thin air to denigrate and demean people. I can honestly see why you like Donald Trump so much. As the Scriptures say, if we are like the world then the world will love us because we are like they are and approve of the things that they do.

Here's a perfect case of someone just making up scenarios to dig at and hurt someone. I sure wish I could remember who that poster was. Sadly, from my point of view, such behavior seems very common for those supporting Donald Trump. Much like him, they just make up scenarios, accounts, stories of others, then throw in a few unsupported derogatory comments to push home their understanding. Kind of like the world does. I guess there really isn't much difference between believers in the one true and holy God and the general run of the mill man of the world. Pushing fake news, supporting lies and just generally pushing out their message of hate and disdain for others who don't seem to see things as they do.

God bless,
In Christ, ted

"Mark my words, I think he is gonna try to kick back the election somehow, come up with some rationale why it can't be held," Biden said during a Thursday evening virtual fundraiser.

Biden predicts Trump will try to postpone the election

I forgot to ask by the way, what would your position be if Trump did try to postpone the election? Would you continue to support him?

We all know that the only real hating that we see now days is directed towards Trump.
So, let us not twist the truth.
Up top the mountain we don't care for that.

By the way Ted -- I love Biden.

Hi MM,

Well, as is always the case, some people just see things differently.

No, we don't all know that. How about you stick to speaking for yourself instead of trying to usurp my voice?

What choice would they have?

Thanks for your support in this matter. It's why I responded as I did to MM's post. We don't all think or know the same things. It's been my experience that there are actually very, very few things that 'we all know'. Personally, I try to steer clear of 'generalizing' comments.

God bless,

I have many issues with Biden and I have some issues with Trump as well. So then we get down to the functional issues and I would much rather have Trump in spite of all his flaws. It all boils down to our vision for the future of our nation.

Hi dC,

I would agree with that. I think it also boils down to 'what' we expect from someone in the performance of their job. Everyone has a nature. We each individually have ways that we think and ways that we communicate and respond to others.

Some believe that everyone's out to get them and some are more understanding of others and try to see things from the way that others see things. Going back to a driving analogy...we read of cases of road rage. Some driver cuts another driver off. Some go out for blood and spend the next 15 minutes trying their best to show their anger at how they've been treated. Some are more calm about it and back off and allow the other driver some space. It really boils down to grace or revenge. We all have ways that we react and respond to stimulus. These attitudes become ingrained and a part of the nature of 'who' we are.

The one who gets angered likely gets angered with others who make mistakes in other things. The one who gives grace likely gives grace in other things. It's a nature and we all have one. Now, we can also replace the word nature with spirit. Some people have a mean and wicked spirit. Some have an understanding and forgiving spirit.

Unlike you, when I see the nature of the man, Donald Trump, I'm not willing to give my approval for his being the leader of the nation. I don't want to be known or associated with someone with such a mean spirited nature. Just as if I knew someone who was angered at everyone's mistakes or driving habits on the road, I wouldn't choose to ride in a car with them. Paul writes for us an entire litany of sinful habits that are going to permeate society as we move inexorably toward the last days. He ends that long laundry list with this warning: Not only do they do such things themselves, but they approve of others who do them.

I'm not willing to give my approval to someone who seems to be practicing many of those sinful habits that Paul writes to us about. I'm not willing to give my approval of someone who's love for most seems to have grown cold. Someone who seems to be pretty loose with the truth. Someone who denigrates and demeans others and spends the majority of his efforts seeing to it that his ego is fed. For me, that's just not the better choice of a national leader or good friend. No matter their political agenda. I'm looking at the nature first and then the political promises or hoped for achievements.

Hopefully, this helps to explain my reluctance and refusal to cast my ballot for Donald Trump. Donald Trump is unique in that such things as one's nature hasn't really been a big deal in national politics. Most previous seekers and winners of presidential elections, in the past of my memory, were fairly decent people in how they worked with and communicated to others. Now that's all been turned up on it's ear.

God bless,
In Christ, ted

When a post makes obvious mistakes like this, it makes it much harder to take other assertions from the same source seriously.

I will simply repeat my caution to you, Biden is not what you seem to think that he is, more and more facts are starting to come to light. You might want to ask Tara Reade what she thinks.

Hi dC,

Well, thanks for the warning, but while we're all waiting for the 'supposed' facts that are coming to light, we already have the light of the facts regarding 'who' Donald Trump is. Look, I get it! You like the man. You approve of who he is. Fine! I happen to be one who doesn't share your appreciation for 'who' he is.

I've said it before and I'll say it as often as it needs to be said. I find the made wildly egotistical beyond the measure of pretty much anyone I've ever known in my entire life and I'm 64 and I've known a lot of people. I find the man a boor. He has no respect for others. His singular and regular method of dealing with people who don't agree with him is to denigrate them and call them mean and demeaning names. You approve of that. I don't! He treats others like a petulant three year old. You approve of that. I don't.

I'm voting for someone as president to represent the nation in which I live who is respectful. I am not looking for anyone who is perfect...Jesus isn't running. Maybe Mr. Biden does have some skeletons in his closet. I can't remember the last time we had a national election where there weren't skeletons to be unearthed. Can you? It's just the way that politics, especially on the national level, have become.

So look, when any real dirt comes in, you be sure and point it out to me and I'll look into it and perhaps change my mind. However, it would have to be a pretty egregious issue to overcome my supporting an egotistical boor as the better alternative.

God bless,
In Christ, ted
