Ok, Which of these is worse?. Biden, touching?, Sanders no taxes?

Yes, Biden did indeed touch some women. Is that worse, the same, or less of a problem than Sanders not producing his taxes? Sanders said he would produce them "soon" When is "soon" Has he lied about when he is going to produce those taxes?
....Has Biden lied about his touching some women? What has been his response to this. Well, you know his response, basically something like "I will rethink my way of interacting with women"

...So which is worse. Sanders lying about his taxes..not producing them.."soon"
................Or............Biden admitting he touched some women, and saying he will rethink his behavior..

You figure out the answer for you. I know which is worse for me.

If Trump "Obstructed the Investigation"...as is somewhat indicated...then...

That is clearly against the law, even if he did not "Collude with Russia." Obstructing an investigation is
..illegal.. Is that correct? So maybe not enough proof to prove "collusion" but maybe enough to prove.. "obstruction of an investigation"...

..Would Trump try to obstruct?.. Does he golf? Does he watch Fox News?...It ain't over till it is over..

Of course, This could be wrong.. all wrong. But I don't think it is over..I say that because the bottom line to me is that Trump is a crook, thinks like a crook, lies like a crook and will be caught by a crook catcher. As stated earlier, it may not be in our time frame..but the crook catcher will catch the crook.

If findings more troubling than indicated....?? What does that mean?...You think it means nothing?..Those of us who watched Watergate, knew Nixon was a crook. So, you think Trump is any better? Or worse? Or the same?

It took much longer than anyone thought for all the info on Watergate to come out. Much longer. But it did, and will come out again. That is the nature of the beast. So it takes another 6 months for all the crap to come out. You think it won't come out? Maybe these early reports are just...early reports......So, I think Trump is a crook, and Mueller will catch the crook. As Sgt Schultz said, and I say too.. I don't know nothing.

About the "touching" by Biden. A point to consider. The nomination for President in the

Democratic Party...is not this year but next year!!..

approximately 15 months away. Will this still be an issue...next year? Yes, next year?

What if there is no more touching ever in the future by Biden.? Is this still going to be an issue next year?

Next March? Next January? This is April, correct? Think it over. Biden touched someone last year...(let's say 2020), and he doesn't ever touch someone again...What do you think? Of all the things to focus on, and it won't happen again.. Am I missing something?? Think it over.

This is an attempt to destroy someone... By who?..Think it over And this destruction hurts us all.

I do NOT have cable TV. Never Had, Never Will. I counted the stations I have. 54 stations..

..Yes, 54 stations over the antennae. Cheap antennae I bought about 15 years ago..for $15 to $20.00...
I just now took a survey. I live about 10 miles from downtown where the stations send their signals. (I really don't know, but that is where they used to send them before.) No cable, 54 stations. Old shows, new shows, old westerns, detective shows, comedies, quiz shows, talk shows. news shows, interview shows, shows in Spanish, and English. Some days other languages. Dramas, cartoons. shows that sell all kinds of merchandise. Whatever..
...Now, I don't watch it much. I get news from the computer. Sometimes I watch Colombo (old shows) or Star Trek (also old shows) or that show on Public TV, where they show what old merchandise is worth. (Antiques Road Show?) people bring the stuff to the show for appraisal. Occasionally, Judge Judy, only because she makes more money than anyone else. (2 million a week) Rarely something else. You Tube on the computer..and some music. Also on the computer-- some card games. (Free Sell, solitaire, one or two others.)
...54 stations..no cable..? Just over the airwaves. I don't really care. I guess it is time to go to the library or get some exercise at the park district indoor track. Talk to you later..

Yes, the unexpected can happen. Even our worst thoughts can come true. Not possible you say?

In my very worst imagination, and political thinking, I never thought anyone like Trump could become President of the United States. If we underestimate our opponents, we can lose. The ridiculous, impossible, and absurd can happen. Why? Lots of reasons. We must not give up. Our enemies don't.

We will need the strongest candidate in 2020, who ever that is. We must win.

As bad as Trump is, the republicans will stick with him. He is their leader and he is in charge. We need our absolute strongest candidate to win. The republicans will stop at nothing to win.

Whoever we choose must be experienced and been through a whole lot. Maybe I am wrong on this. I expect the absolute worst behavior from republicans in 2020. Yes, and I believe the republicans will show us what true evil is.

About Stuart G

I thought I knew a lot, and I found out... how little I knew about what I know. And how much more there is to learn, if I listen and read what others have to say.
