This seems - kinda bad (for the GOP)?

Biden campaign expected to kick off properly on Thursday with a speech goading the Mango Mussolini.

Obama going to treat his speech supporting Joe as an unofficial roast of Trump. His surrogates being sent out to keep throwing jibes. The plan is to make the cunts head explode during one of his rallies.

The problem is that we in the west know this all too well. We know that your suggested approach of appeasement is a textbook guide on how you end up with fascist dictators…

That's true. Politics in east are so different to the west. In asia, if we take the same approach of the west, it will not end up well...We (Chinese) always prefer the "a middle course", moderate, compromise, something like that...That's the way to keep everything work well.

I thought the Chinese government preferred the do it my way or you go missing type of politics. Or is that just a western fallacy?

Welcome to the board by the way.

Sounds less like politics and more like Facebook, maybe if the Democrats could pick someone a little younger say like Harris for example?

Or was she picked just for show ;-)

The biggest issues concerning the American public currently is the economy and the border situation, both of which favors Trump heavily.

For Trump to win the general election, he doesn't necessarily need any extra voters to beat Trump. He just needs some of Biden's voters to stay home and not vote and that's looking like the case with the how indifferent some Biden voters have become with his policies.

State of the union on thursday.

To be fair the MTG/Boebart double team heckling will make it entertaining.

That's western fallacy...
Chinese government or CCP, they are the most moderate, or compromise role in the country.
The logic is different. Because you don't need to fight for an election, your job is to keep the country going foward.
So you need to unite all kinds of people. You must stay in the middle.
If you are far(extreme) right or left , they (the government) will make you shut up. You will disappear from public view.
And in our Chinese view, that's good, they should do it like that. If the government don't do their job, public will feel angry.
But west media call it "censorship" "people missing", that's BS.

Thank you for the reply.

Always good to hear other sides.

We mostly stick to one view (me included sometimes) so a new perspective is appreciated.
