Is your Dad a Republican? Or maybe he just likes Trump.

They've been pushing this idea that Biden won't debate for months now.

If anyone is going to bolt on the debates it is Trump.

...and then I showed them that, like most things, they were basing that off of a doctored video that has been rebutted by, well, everyone. That was 2 hours ago, and I still haven't seen a response from them on their post, but several of their fellow MAGAs have. It's funny, to say the least. It's like that Doobie Brothers song, "What a fool believes, he sees, no wise man has the power to reason away."

I did hear a whole bunch of crazy stuff from a Republican neighbor's son. I'm so glad I was wearing a mask so he couldn't see the reaction on my face.

It was all about Covid-19. It's bad enough when you read about the insane things that they believe. But when you actually hear it coming out of their mouths?

But I had yet to read the part about where people were able to study Covid-19 since 2015.

Yep. He told me he's been studying Covid-19 since 2015.

Along with all sorts of other idiocy. They believe their own bullshit. Even when Biden wipes the floor with Trump in all 3 debates, they'll still claim the opposite. Just like they always do. It's sad and disgusting how badly people are being fed lies and propaganda. But, what's even sadder is how easily they believe it. No critical thought, whatsoever.

Put it on your facebook page and tweet it out too, and maybe you can start a meme. People are saying and all that, you know.

to make him seem lively without going crazy and attacking Biden.

Be nice if they would give out the recipe before the debate.

"Crazy Uncle Donny is entering the meet tonight with 2 amphetamines and a light, but smooth downer."

That had nothing to do with this thread, did it?

Not too drugged down like he is sometimes, but not too hyper (and they better make sure no white particles drop out of his nose again).

It should be interesting. He's still full of shit and lies though so it should be some spectacle.

About 40% of the Country will claim that Trump "won". It doesn't matter what actually happens.
