    Biden, or any other US president in present global circumstance, can hardly be responsible for ensuring peace between Israel and it’s neighbors.

    You're right. But we are responsible for fucking up relationships between countries. And the POTUS is in charge of foreign policy.

    And foreign policy is about power, not morals.

    So Haley dropped out seven weeks ago and still drew this many votes against Biff? :lol:

    I'm sure that's not a big deal for him in a swing state. :bergman:

    >EDITED< to add that it's a closed primary.

    It ended up at 17% for Haley, but that was over 100K votes. There are a good chunk of Never Trumpers in the GOP now, finally. And you have to figure that that number is even higher among the general population, because most people don't vote in the primaries.

    Haley didn't even campaign in PA, at all.

    And this is a closed primary. These are all registered Republicans.

    The Democratic Party has a lot of money and they’re keeping him from campaigning.:shrug:

    Donald Trump has held rallies recently - April 13th and April 2 - and has another scheduled for May 11th

    In between that he raised $50 million - allegedly - at a Palm Beach dinner

    https://blog.4president.us/2024/donald-trump/

    Sorry, how is he being kept from campaigning?

    Was it wrong when John Edwards was prosecuted for using campaign funds to pay off his mistress?

    But, you want to bring charges against Biden, Hillary, and a host of others. Why are those not BS charges? Oh, wait. Nevermind. I already know your answer.

    He's literally campaigning and raising a lot of money (allegedly). This is an undisputable fact

    You are arguing against a proven fact, which means you're intentionally lying

    Why?

    And I already know why you think they shouldn't be charged, glad we avoided pages of back and forth griping.

    How is it that you can type words into sentences, but can’t see how trump is a criminal?

    I believe that everyone is innocent until proven guilty.

    Of course, Trump believes in "Guilty even after proven innocent". See his response to the Central Park 5 (?).

    That's too close to the trump case. and trump is definitely innocent until proven guilty. and this trial is just a witch hunt so even if he is found guilty it will still be a lie cooked up by Democrats.

    IOW, he won't respond or answer.

    Currently right now the lawyer for the Republican nominee and the Supreme Court are having a discussion that under certain circumstances, a president could order Seal Team Six to assassinate a political rival and not face prosecution. Like this is literally happening right now

    You're such a clown :lol:
