Misleading header. One would think the worsmith's could have done a better job and fit this part in:


Same poll shows majority of Americans oppose former President Trump running for reelection

What does that say about our political parties when the majorities, respectively, don't want their candidates they're going to shove down our throats anyway?

Yet there seems to be substantial numbers that cling to each of these men. The corruption of society seems a fait accompli to me.

They did it to us in 2016, then again in 2020, why would we expect anything different in 2024?

BOHICA baby!


I said it then, and I say it still...

If everyone who didn't like the Democrat candidate but voted for them anyway because they didn't like the Republican candidate, and If everyone who didn't like the Republican candidate but voted for them anyway because they didn't like the Democrat candidate had all voted a third party candidate, it would have shaken things up like we've never seen. But hey, as long as folks are more concerned about their "side" winning, those of who care more about country than we do about party will continue to get the short end of the stick.

I couldn't vote for either of them. Gary Johnson got my vote for the second cycle in a row. Then Jorgensen. Both times they better represented my beliefs than the "mainstream" choices.
