So they’re going to mute mics for the last debate.

Wonder if Trump backs out.

It’s a good thing Trump’s words don’t matter and we don’t need to worry about the lying. Or that he’s just as bad as other politicians.

Yeah. If you don’t already know who trump is by now, you’re just not going to get it. Whether you’re being willfully ignorant or just ignorant to who he is, doesn’t matter. He can say whatever he wants and outside of the 0.001%, you’re not changing your mind on him.

The expression on his face when he can't interrupt should be something to see.

His team is also upset about the topics largely because it’s the Covid 19 discussion and he wants to talk about foreign policy so he can attack president elect hunter biden.

He's still going to interrupt because he's ten feet from the human he's talking to. So it's going to work out better for him because people at home aren't gonna hear him acting like a buffoon but he'll be effective at stopping Biden from getting his words in. Imo

This reminded me of the time when John Edwards (lol) brought up Cheyney's daughter.

CNN Legal man getting it on. This is almost as bad as knocking up his colleague's daughter and threatening her if she didn't have an abortion. #onlythebest

85% chance this debate doesn’t happen, right?

I would’ve guessed you’d be a bit further right. What views would you consider you’re left on?

Ron Johnson on Hannity tonight talking about the Biden hard drive. He has a big problem with the FBI not disclosing that they had the hard drive in their possession in 2019.

I’m exactly two blocks to the left of you which kind of surprises me, but there were some questions I could’ve gone either way and that probably tipped me left.

There is quite a lot of stories about him and his behavior on the Internet. Just start with "shockingly" + "Jeffrey Toobin" . :lol:

He’s not upset for Rudy having this hard drive copy for a year that contained “CP?”

I was middle of the green box, which is not surprising.

But your results makes me wonder if the test is reflective.

Or I'm a lot more centrist than I thought :lol: . I've always thought I was a fairly right wing guy, but as I was answering questions I was surprising myself as to which answers I was selecting.

Especially on things like corporate responsibility, wealth, etc. As I was taking it I was wondering if I was going to be closer to the center than I thought.

Yeah, I think those questions might be a little dated, like I think I saw one about fighting inflation vs unemployment.

A better barometer would be like:

Agree or disagree:

Twitter is censoring don jr.
Liz Warren should have endorsed Bernie sanders.
George Zimmerman acted in self defense.
Bill Clinton is a rapist.
Obamacare is a right wing policy.

Stuff like this would identify the far left and right
