What you do is grab the timestamp address of the tweet you want. For example:




As for images, sometimes getting the link address works, other times it doesn't. There is no direct way to upload an image on this BB/posting system.

Understand. There are prime votes in the middle to be had. Particularly fiscal conservatives who are socially liberal and not political. They hate the schmuck...but would never in a million years vote for a person who purposes a 20 trillion spending program. That is a fact.

We choose the candidate who can best kick Trump and his enablers to the curb. We need a resounding win to counterattack the cheating and electoral shenanigans that will no doubt occur in 2020.

Joe Biden has been leading the pack in that regard since he entered the race. Despite all the attacks and complaints, he's still leading with numbers like the current FOX poll. And, he's the best qualified to put the pieces back together so we can move forward while restoring our relationships and alliances abroad.

AGO4JOE!

But while I like and could live with a warren candidacy, I support joe because I also see him as generating the biggest win, which will be required to overcome all the crap trump is going to throw at the elections, which surely will involve trying to keep large urban areas from voting at all.

It's amazing the system works even when both sides want it to. And we don't know what he has cooked up with china yet. The south china sea and taiwan are certainly worth a LOT to china. All trump has to do is turn away and not react. What would they manufacture in return?

Sun Nov 3, 2019, 03:19 PM
Nov 2019

As much as I admired Hillary and thought she deserved a shot. I still love Warren and would love to see her as president, but we must win the election. I think Biden has the highest chance of doing that. Warren...and Bernie...are so vulnerable to having the election turn into a food fight over socialism. (Apparently the GOP and a lot of independents are fine with a dictatorship.) We cannot underestimate America's ignorance and voters willingness to fall for a comforting line.

I must point out that the media could go a long way toward educating people about the extent to which the GOP is destroying democracy. They've already created a plutocracy or oligarchy, depending upon who you read. Media never points out when and why raters downgrade us as a democracy with lack of upward mobility. Wish we could rate media on all the things they don't report! Oh, well...
