Obviously, I still respect Denzel as an actor but he's off base here.

Of course, there are corrupt and manipulative politicians in every political party. "Both sides" still aren't the same though. The Republican Party is MUCH WORSE than the Democratic Party. Trump is going to be a disaster and he will have near unchecked power compared to his first term.

What if neither party meets your needs? Why are we a dedicated voting block to a specific party if no agendas we bring to the forefront are addressed?

How’s he wrong? Democrats called Trump and his ilk fascists but are happily - with smiles I might add - handing them the keys. Kamala is real quiet right now despite being Vice President. If Trump were really that much of a threat to America she wouldn’t be that quiet. They said you’d never vote again if Trump won but are quickly adjusting strategy for midterms and 2028 and trying to put in new leaders at the DNC. If Trump were a fascist and dictator they wouldn’t be acting like business as usual.

It’s all politics and a part of the game.

Trump said it himself at the White House meeting with Biden:

“Politics is tough. And it's, in many cases, not a very nice world, but it is a nice world today." What he essentially means is “I’m sorry for acting a fool. You’re a good guy and it was just business. You didn’t take it personally did you?”

Biden told him welcome back. He takes it on the chin as if he lost the World Series. Devastating, sure. But there’s always next season.

It’s all part of the game.

Hey, pick your side you think speaks most to you. But always remember it’s Both Sides out here. If how the election got Dems acting out here hasn’t helped you see that nothing will.

You speaking too much sense for them breh. Let them be hardheaded and learn in a few years. A lot of them still stuck in 2016 and still falling for these narratives and doom and gloom.

In 2028, when either Desantis or Hegseth( Trump Secretary of Defense) becomes the nominee they gonna be falling for the same "You won't be able to ever vote again" lines from the Democrats and how each one is the new boogeyman

I pray they learn. Denzel said both sides use manipulation and he's right. If anything I just hope they learn to not take the existential threat that the Democrats run seriously.

Also Republican Nominee is likely to be JD Vance.

I’m using these as examples because they were easy to find when I got on twitter to make my point but I saw it myself using independent media and connected the dots myself on Wednesday. You’re intent to focusing on right wing sources rather than the message is incredibly damning. Focus on the message and the argument.
When a source a is known for spreading lies and misinformation, it casts doubt on the accuracy of their [subjective] interpretation. Focusing on their interpretation without questioning the source is dangerous because it opens the door for false narratives that shape our understanding of reality. Arguments built on a shaky premise can't be considered credible. And let's be honest here. You're using the examples because they confirm your bias.

"End Wokeness" is an especially egregious account.

Who knows if they will. For years Bush JR was a monster and then all of a sudden he gave Michelle Obama a piece of candy at his father's funeral and he got invited to the cookout.

People don't realize this but if they pay attention, Trump is getting more popular and Obama is getting less popular. Its going to be harder for the media to convince people to hate Trump.

Maybe the nominee will be Vance. I just can't picture him because the lack of charisma. Yes I know Desantis has that issue as well but Vance is missing something imo

I have too much respect for Denzel to disrespect him. So I won't.

There's always going to be corrupt politicians, politicians who are not honest about everything, and politicians who are in bed with corporate interests.

That's always going to happen.

There's obviously a lesser evil here but, to each his own :manny:

JD has far more charisma in his pinky than DeSantis. Watch the Veep debate. JD is good at convincing you he's right even when spouting bullshyt. He's well spoken and would savage DeSantis.

It is illegal for any former president. to disparage another former president.

So you will never hear any remarks.

Who said anything disparage? Doesn't mean he has to be nice. He could just be cordial instead of all smiles.


Again.

Why would anyone or that stature risk it. When their words could be misconstrued. Then have to pay for that case. They are not going to do that. Plus politicians are all in on it.

You would need a new real freedom fighter with a real grasp on how to way america. To create an entirely new party. To criticize the current crop of politicians. Then it would stop.
as soon as they reach office.

All that shyt sounds good in theory but when you have not only the electorate we have but currently a HOF POS coming in to power, that shyt is not happening. A both sider, huh, let's see how same they are after the next 4 years.
Facts.

I'm all for a #bothsides argument when we have normal politicians. When you have Lil Hitler and the Hitlettes....that both sides shyt gotta go. Get the obvious evil out the paint and then focus on both sides

I feel like people who make comments like the bolded have no understanding of how the government works.

There's nothing President Biden or Vice President Harris can do.

Trump won the popular vote and the Electoral College. All they can do is play nice, hand over power and hope he doesn't destroy things by the midterms and that Americans give them back the House & the Senate so they can try to limit what he can do.

You're essentially asking them to overturn the election or to undermine Trump becoming the next President. WHICH THEY CAN'T DO.

And just so it can be noted....Trump appointed a pedophile as the Attorney General, Tulsi Gabbard (yea, that crazy bish) to be the National Intelligence Director meaning that hoe is in charge of the CIA, FBI, NSA, etc., appointed RFK (a nikka that left a dead bear in Central Park) to head the Department of Health & Human Services, appointed Chris Wright to head Energy (a cac who doesn't believe in Climate Change) and wants to drill in the Arctic. Oh yea....Trump is creating a government department to monitor all Army officials to make sure they're loyal to Trump along with wanting to cut tons of government jobs.

So just say you're not paying attention and leave it at that. Talking about he's not "that much of a threat" :scust:

This comment is Retarded Both Sides Babble.

While we're at it, let's pardon Bob Menedez and make him the new Treasury Secretary.

:mjlol:

Who believe that shyt, y’all?

No one said they should not do transition of power.

You’re willfully ignoring the point.

Yashar Ali nailed it in this tweet.






Bububut there’s nothing they can do! :mjlol:

It just makes Democrats look even more toothless and pathetic.

Nah they been calling Tulsi out
