YES, a fair election. Hopefully it spreads around the world. Many states in the US are working to fix their problems before election day. Hopefully they do so the US can become a first world country again.

Many states in the US are working to fix their problems before election day. Somehow I doubt any blue states are working to fix their election problems. If anything, I imagine they are refining their ability to cheat and defraud.

If this Mencken quote doesn't describe Miele ....
"The fact is that the average man's love of liberty is nine-tenths imaginary, exactly like his love of sense, justice and truth. He is not actually happy when free; he is uncomfortable, a bit alarmed, and intolerably lonely. Liberty is not a thing for the great masses of men. It is the exclusive possession of a small and disreputable minority, like knowledge, courage and honor. It takes a special sort of man to understand and enjoy liberty — and he is usually an outlaw in democratic societies.""

Wouldn't a libertarian "takeover" be a contradiction in terms?

Trump and Paul, and then we need another eight years or Rand. It isn't just spending, it is the creation of money via the Federal Reserve. What was that stat? Half of the money ever created in the country has been created over the last three years, including money in circulation, notes etc. I wonder why we have the inflation?

Imagine what would happen if the death penalty was in play for fraud here in the US.

Judges used to be held in high regard in this country, the USA. But now, it depends on who the judge is as to what happens. The problem, IMO, is the judges on the left don't have any qualms about ignoring the law and ruling on a political basis. Fraud is a serious felony in the USA too, but doesn't warrant the death penalty. Speaking of justice on the left: Jack Smith Suggests He Will Ignore Supreme Court if it Reverses ‘Obstruction’ Statute Special Counsel Jack Smith suggested he ignore the Supreme Court if it reverses the obstruction statute this summer. The US Supreme Court recently announced it will hear oral arguments in Fischer v. United States and at issue is statute 18 USC §1512(c)(2): Whoever corruptly— (1) alters, destroys, mutilates, or conceals a record, document, or other object, or attempts to do so, with the intent to impair the object’s integrity or availability for use in an official proceeding; or..... www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/04/jack-smith-suggests-he-will-ignore-supreme-court/

I guess not yet since they are entertaining the Donald, but then again he is the closet thing to individual freedom we got. I think Trump may do better in 2024 bringing more people, factions, groups under the "Trump Tent". In fact things are so desperate i wouldn't even count out MDDad....

I supported Trump the first time around. I wasn't sure what he was going to do, and he made a lot of statements before that made me question his intentions. But who else you going to pick? Romney? Jeb? They are all a bunch of sell outs. After four hears he got a lot done. The testament to that is how many executive orders Biden signed to overturn his common sense agenda.

Yup, pretty pathetic BillyB, Bidens great accomplishments have been the "act" of over turning everything Trump did that was actually working, middle east, economy, inflation, border the list goes on.

For 58 years, Joe Biden has been a loser and an abject failure as a father, a senator and a vice president. Why would anyone think he would be anything else but a loser and a failure as president?
