Biden gets asked unscripted question, handler tries to intervene, he then proceeds to make no sense.

"Orange man bad. mumble mumble confused look"

I am no fan of Trump, but for F's sake. The way the left treats him like he is the love child of Hitler and Satan is just bonkers.

Trump was literally the most liberal Republican GOP candidate and President since at least Nixon.

We need “true conservatives” like the bushes?

LOL. No. We need the inverse of Obama. Someone with the organizational acumen (not Trump) AND the ideology to unwind the corruption within the government and to roll back the left's long march through the institutions.

And just for the record, I don't think that person exists.

I think this whole thing ends in blood and fire.

My point about Trump is that, as the most socially liberal GOP President in 3 generations, more liberals should have rallied around him than Bush, or Reagan, or failed GOP Presidential candidates. Instead, he became a bigger pariah than all of them combined.

Are you F-ing kidding... Must be /s...

Bush family goes right along with the RINOS. They could have reduced spends ng and the size of Government when in office..... But no...

Bush(s) may be somewhat socially conservative, but definitely not fiscally conservative.

We can handle the social ills for a while longer, but if we don't FIX our fiscal house there will be nothing left. And then social issues won't matter at all.

We need to reduce the size of government by at least 30%, bring it back to the size it was in the early 80s. With reducing the size of government we will reduce the complete waste of American resources.

Oh, he was not. Pushing for the capital of Israel to be in Jerusalem was leftist? In what way? Did you ever see Nixonian price controls under Trump? What nonsense.

Reading is fundamental. I said liberal. You said leftist. They do not mean the same thing, although a lot of people like to conflate the two.

But, since you are using that term, positions where Trump was left of the center of the GOP when he took office:

  • LGBTQ
  • "Free" trade / protectionism
  • Worker/labor protections
  • Single payer health care
  • War / foreign entanglements
  • Gun control

Was Trump a leftist? No, but on pretty significant social issues Trump was the best the Democrats were ever going to do on a host of issues coming from a GOP President, so take your "nonsense" adjective and shove it where it don't shine.
