That's intelligent.[/quote]

It is.  Very.  Biden will serve this country better than trump despite his age.  That is the calculation for every voter.  If you look at these two men and their administrations and choose trump, you are making a foolish choice.

Did you watch the debate?  Trump stood there and spouted total nonsense for 90 minutes. He does not give a crap about this country.

I’m not sure you are right:

Economy / inflation - I don’t blame Biden for inflation (it’s the COVID hangover) but many voters do
Foreign wars - Biden is all in on continuing to send $$ out of the country
Hands off my body - SC justices will cling on for 4 more years

Also, I’m not convinced Biden is up for the challenge of beating Trump. I think any alternative D has a better chance. [/quote]

[i]Foreign wars - Biden is all in on continuing to send $$ out of the country[/i]

It is better than sending our young men and women overseas to fight these battles.

I suppose the GOP would rather just let Russia take Ukraine and then NATO countries and China to take Taiwan. That seems to be the rhetoric these days.[/quote]

I should also add, the money isn't being sent out of the country. There aren't plats of cash being shipped abroad. the money is in the form of amrs produced in the US and then shipped abroad. So that is American jobs and American productivity.[/quote]

Just think about this for a moment:   We are creating a weapons manufacturing economy. That money could be spent creating investing in projects/organizations in the healthcare or education or infrastructure sectors instead.  However, under the Biden admin we have made an alternative choice: investment in weapon manufacturers richer.  Is this really what you want?

And the alternative is not sending American solders overseas.  It’s understanding we should invest in our sphere of influence and let other countries across the sea do the same.

Did you know that China has funded a 24/7 Library in El Salvador?   Imagine if we invested in things like that in Latin and South America.  Not only would it win hearts and minds it would also make it less compelling for illegal immigrants to cross our borders.

You can see from the end of his bio that he won an award for improvement to precision airstrike attacks.  Oh goodie - we are enriching the person whose life’s work is responsible for killing thousands (hundreds of thousand) people.

I don’t think this policy choice of Biden’s is a winning one.  He’s now lost me on the we must protect democracy too (bc clearly he is not in charge and it’s his advisors running things, that’s not democracy).  So the only thing left for me is his stance on keeping government hands off my body.  However, I’m not sure he can really move the needle on this (the SC justices will cling on).
