Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
Only Republicans would trot out someone as completely unqualified as Deputy Dog Walker and try to sell him as anything other than a blithering idiot. He’s barely able to get out a coherent sentence, it’s just embarrassing on so many levels.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
No surprise here.....................
https://news.yahoo.com/trump-officia...181640384.html The Hill Trump officials interfered with CDC guidance for political purposes, House panel finds The Trump administration regularly interfered with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) process for developing and issuing guidance about the coronavirus, changed scientific reports and undermined top public health officials, a congressional panel said Monday. The House select subcommittee on the coronavirus crisis said interviews, emails and other documents obtained by the panel showed how political appointees in the Trump administration took control of CDC’s public communications and overruled scientists in an effort to bend the agency to Trump’s rosy outlook on the pandemic.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
I think we need a national law which mandates debates during elections. Agree to have them in neutral, unsponsored places with non partisan moderators.
Hiding from your positions is pathetic and you are unfit for office if you cannot defend them

Each debate should have 2 moderators, 1 from each side, that ask an equal number of questions to both candidates.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
Problem is all common human decency is out the window with the debates. Nobody respects or listens to the moderators or their fellow opponent. Nobody actually answers the questions directly. Everyone has an agenda and just wants to rile up their base with sound bites.
Really tired of the political hit job ads where every candidate is made out to be the devil incarnate. Can we all just fucking grow up already? |

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
In this day and age I am not even sure what the relevance of a debate is. It is so easy to find where a candidate stands on an issue and what their platform is and unlike the 60s over 95% of the u.S. population can now read.

Re: The Most Fresh & Cordial Political Thread Ever
Well you should have to defend position and why they stand for something.
It’s relevant, people deserve explanations and it’s important to hear it from the person’s mouth for accountability. Things written…no. Unfortunately they can be edited or the person can simply say…I’ve never said that or said I’ve stood for that. Debates should mandatory across the board

A debate is designed to sway an audience or a panel that their view is correct. Can you honestly say anyone watching these debates says they have changed their mind who they are voting for?

Once it gets to right vs. left, I don't think it very much matters anymore. Our heels are dug-in long before any debates there happen.
