The Era of Biden

[DBTrek]

I didn't think it was that bilious an observation.

It was the ONLY qualification you mentioned, after pointing out he was lazy and had bad judgment.... two things I would consider disqualifying.

/shrug

Point out where I said "And now let me present a list qualifications presidents must meet".
Or any variation of that sentiment.
In any language.

when it comes to governance in this era, lazy motherfucker is a blessing

less is more

Trump's incompetence is a feature not a bug

no need to charge into the abyss, better to have a do nothing President

Being lazy is one thing, but being lazy and then claiming your failures are a swampy conspiracy against you.... that's just sour grapes.

like I say, the Presidency is a dirty job, it's a mud slinging contest, Trump is perfect for that

If you had done that it would certainly be harder for me to assume 'having a good heart' was the only one you cared about.

It is clear that you haven't compiled such a list.

You're so close to uncovering the answer, I'll just throw it out there:
I was making an observation, not opining on what qualifies people as president.

But ... on a side note, you should drop by.
My living room window is looking a mite grungy ... and I can only imagine the level of improvement I could achieve by setting a window-licker of your caliber loose on it.

I always thought there was rather more to it than being an expert mud slingster.... but I guess the article of the constitution outlining presidential powers is pretty short.

Its authors were wise enough to trust us to read 'slinging mud' in between the lines of expressed presidential powers and duties.

I'll go ahead and tip you off to my point, since we are being so generous with our explanations:

I was making an observation that bad judgment and laziness ought to be more disqualifying than good intentions are qualifying.

Road to Hell, and whatnot.

oh certainly they were, there was already a deep divide North v South even then

they were trying to prevent power from concentrating, to win the War of Independence

once the tent reaches a certain size, you just go with who everybody can rally around

General Washington was fighting a dirty war, just win, baby

...squeeeeeeeeeeiiiip!...

All I'm hearing from you dude.

I think you're still talking about qualifications ... or maybe the flavor of Windex.
I dunno.

On a more serious note - this is all a lot easier to understand once you accept the Federal government is not your friend.
It doesn't work for you.
It doesn't care what you believe.
It won't think twice about seizing you, your property, or your communications for any purpose it desires.
Its. Not. On. Your. Side.

Accept that for a minute.
Or ... just humor me, and consider that as a possibility.

Now - if the Federal government is actually a hostile entity ... who would you rather have leading it? Trained Marxist who have been fomenting a class war for 50 years and a race war for 20? Or ... the lazy motherfucker?

You see how a minus can be a plus?
Pieces falling together at all?
No?
