Standing up for the truth

is a test of character. Ignoring lies for political gain shows a lack of character. This applies to everyone, Republicans and Democrats alike, elected officials, candidates and ordinary people. The willingness in recent years to ignore lies even when they are against political opponents is what got us Trump. We have to be better than that. I'm sorry if this is an unpopular opinion in this forum but that is how I feel. If stating this simple principle gets me banned, then so be it.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

None of our candidates are safe from trump's vicious attacks. All the dems running should be united on this if nothing else.

By the way, Welcome to DU
