I was disappointed by both candidates.

Trump did not mention many of his strident assertions, that he has
demanded that his followers believe. As with his tea party candidates,
they seem to hide their true beliefs, until they are elected. Then they try
to destroy the democratic system from within.

Biden is a man who seems unable to present basic facts about the current
strength of the U.S. economy, AND point out some new challenges that
America faces.

I do not find the Democratic Party or the Republican Party as representing
the moderate middle of American voters.

I agree with all. Sadly tribalism will lead us to destruction. I feel everyone in government are ignorant about the economy because of both parties' fiscal policies. I was shocked by watching a video on how many people are holding two full-time jobs.

I recorded the debate so I could watch it this morning.

Biden looked and sounded like he's ready for the nursing home and
in no way, should he be re-elected.

Keep in mind that Biden is a career politician with over 50 years as a US Senator
and his record shows he caused more harm than good.

Trump only became a politician in 2016.

CNN at it again. What he said about Abortion was not a lie.

Sadly we have to provide legislation to prevent late-term abortion. The lunatic desire for late-term abortion had to be in the news for them to create legislation against it. The baby is learning about their mother by hearing her voice and I remember talking to my kids when they were in the womb. I think old Trump got mixed up with what I think Hillary said.

I believe he was speaking of the former Governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam.

It is what He said in the video on you tube.. Of what would happen after the baby was delivered. It is at the latter part he talks about this.

I am not sure what assertions you are referring to. However the Tea Party, is not anti-democratic. "The movement advocates a national economy operating without government oversight. Movement goals include limiting the size of the federal government, reducing government spending, lowering the national debt and opposing tax increases." Tea Party movement - Wikipedia. The Tea Party is basically just a subset of libertarianism to to me.
I don't fully subscribe to it. I prefer high efficiency in government and regulation. To achieve that kind of efficiency you can't do away with all government regulations but instead you have to look at which ones actually are producing the best outcomes with the least amount of governmental interference and cost.

I can see there are few Tea Party members in government.

I think most are pretty much corrupted once they are in Congress for awhile. Rand Paul might be the exception.

Then you can't call them Tea Party members. I like a lot of what Rand says.

This link has a full list. Tea Party Caucus - Wikipedia Most are not strict enough on spending. I don't even think Reagan was that conservative, if you look at his budgets. What is a shame too is that some parts of the economy need regulation (monopolies or near monopolies for instance) but they are too simplistic to understand that.

I agree that in the future there will be a handful of companies to work for and that is when slavery begins.
