By the way Tweety has played more golf than Obama did in two terms

so again, what’s the maximum allowable number of rounds
of golf? once again, i bet it’s more than obama but less than trump. right?

no sane person should care if the president plays golf except during the middle of an actual emergency like an invasion. it was stupid to criticize obama for it, stupid to
criticize trump for it.

Well since you and many other Repubs. constantly complained about Obama playing golf (and many other petty things) isn't it the height of hypocrisy not to criticize Trump since he is playing golf at a far higher rate than Obama (and never mind it is during a virus that has killed over 160K with no end in sight)?

i think ( could be wrong) that the only time i said anything about obama and golfing, was when he did it the day an american was slaughtered by a terrorist. even then, it’s not the end of the world, doesn’t mean obama didn’t care, but the optics are bad. other than that, play all day every day, as long as you get the job done.

paul, the hypocrisy goes both ways. the dems didn’t are about obama’s golf, but care about trumps golf. that kind of idiotic hypocrisy exists on both sides.

so why not ignore that nonsense, and talk about policies and results? trump has plenty of policy failures to satisfy your desire to bash him, there’s no need to criticize him for things you would
never criticize obama over, and same goes for
me.

You yourself wanted to see Obama's transcripts even though he never discussed them. Why don't you care about Trump's when he bragged he grad. at the "top" of his class yet had his lawyers threaten to sue if UPenn released his transcripts. If I grad "top" of my class, I wouldn't care if the school released them.

anything.

paul, we can go back
and forth all day with examples of hypocrisy on all sides. i don’t care about obama’s grades one bit. i only brought them up, to show the hypocrisy on the issue.

But you're the one who wanted the transcripts and now you want to talk about only serious things?

Should we discuss how many states Obama said he visited again?

no i didn’t want the transcripts ( i see very little
connection between gpa and intelligence). i only brought it up
to show the hypocrisy.

and i never, ever used the 57 states thing, again except to point out the hypocrisy. i said a million times that anyone will
say dumb things if recorded 24/7.

i didn’t need to be petty in my criticism
if obama. there were more than enough america-bashing policy disasters to focus on. i never, ever said that his 57 states comment
meant anything, except to say it should
mean the same as any stupid comments made
by republicans.

Biden’s obviously senility is a different story, but we will
likely have a lot of opportunity to get used to that, if he wins.

i’m not the grammar police paul. i’m not that stupid. i focus on things that matter.

This is the bigger issue

Secret Service has paid rates as high as $650 a night for rooms at Trump’s properties

Trump has spent a 3rd of his time in office at his properties on avg that 120 some odd days a year


Trump-branded properties charged federal government at least $1.2 million, records show


So are you ok with Trump making money off the taxpayer. Even him refusing his paycheck of 400k cant excuse his behavior

no, i’m not ok with trump, or any elected official, using their office to steer money to themselves, friends, or families. i don’t like trump doing this. nor do i like biden’s son getting a lucrative job he’s obviously unqualified for, because of who his daddy is.

that’s the difference between us. you can only call out this behavior on the opposing side, you’re incapable of calling it out on your own side. I have no problem doing that . none.

The "Law and Order" president breaks another law in a desperate attempt to ameliorate the disorder he caused. Look around -- when was the last time we were surrounded by this much lawlessness and chaos?

Trump is such an autocrat that nothing happens without him. He ordered the riots going on across the country. Dude simply has too much power. Someone needs to take him to Court about instigating those riots.
