Polls: Trump Jumps Out to Big Lead Over Biden
CNN has Trump out to a six point lead. Which is the result I'm worried about. The wailing and gnashing about Biden will come back in full force.
On the other hand, the other possible candidates don't do too much better than Biden. Surprisingly, Kamala does the best, only behind Trump by 2.Political PollsA Democracy Corps poll -- and Democracy Corps sounds like a bunch of commie gobbedlygook to me -- now puts Trump up by... 8.
@Politics_Polls 2024 National GE: Trump 49% (+6)
Biden 43%

Trump 47% (+2)
Harris 45%

President Biden needed another stage of momentum to raise his approval and his vote nationally and in the battleground states. His approval went down 2 points and the deficit with Trump grew 8 points. And on who is better handling an issue, he lost 6 to 7 points of margin on inflation, strong, and makes me feel safe. In the past, the polls have almost always reflected the direction and patterns we identify here.They mean, on specific issues, Trump did not improve. Biden lost support, making Trump look better relatively, but Trump's numbers themselves did not go up. Except on the question of who people intend to vote for.
Advertisement Donald Trump didn't benefit on any measure, except the vote. ...
[Biden] took his biggest hit with Black voters and Hispanics, as well as third party voters. ... The biggest shifts against Biden started at 5 points and came on the border, common sense, getting higher wages and salaries, infrastructure, controlling inflation, being strong, and making me safer.For those who say the national polls are meaningless -- they're not -- here's a guy going throug the state-by-state polling and calling the electoral college as the state polls now stand. Spoiler alert: Trump wins, and not by a little. Trump takes all of the swing states, and takes Maine and New Hampshire, too. He even takes Minnesota. One purple/blue state he loses is Virginia. We'll see about that. Jake Tapper is in full partisan mode -- against Biden. He knows Biden will lose to Trump, and, after covering up for Biden for years and years, is now posing as a Jonny-Come-Lately "Truth Teller," telling Democrats to stop pretending we didn't see what we all saw.
Jake Tapper has apparently had enough. No more covering for Biden--at least that is what he is signaling here. He didn't use the term "gaslighting," but that is what he is describing in no uncertain terms. Watch:
Jake Tapper to Biden campaign co-chair Chris Coons on Crooked Joe's cognitive decline: "It is not honest to say that this is just one night!"

Yashar Ali @yasharSure, Jan.
Carl Bernstein on CNN right now: Multiple sources tell him that there have been at least 15 occasions in the last year and a half "where the president has appeared like he did at that horror show (his debate performance)." Bernstein reports that in the last six months sources have told him that there has been a marked incidence of cognitive decline. He says that his sources have gone to Ron Klain in the last year to express concern about the President losing his train of thought and not having the ability to pick up where he left off. Bernstein mentions a fundraiser at the Four Seasons restaurant in New York in June of 2023 where the President became "Very stiff...almost like a kind of rigor mortis." Bernstein notes that he has heard from sources that Biden is very sharp in his national security briefings and that he has full command of the facts.

I remember the leftwing "expert" class all saying that when it turned out that Obamacare did, in fact, terminate your pre-existing insurance. It was not true that "if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor." After this lie, which the "experts" had sworn to for years, suddenly "experts" like Megan McArdle said, "Well of course it terminates your insurance. That's right in the text of the bill. All of us experts knew that."

My theory on Kamala's numbers:
The same people who hadn't seen the real Biden have most definitely not seen the real Kamala.
Make her the focal point and people will immediately start wondering if it's too late to get Biden back.

Conspiracy Theory:
They've known Biden has been mentally incapacitated for quite some time, however he's progressing at a rate they did not anticipate. They are now pressing their cohorts in the media and polling orgs to make it seem that Trump is going to decisively beat Biden so they can push harder to get him removed ASAP and replaced with someone else, whether that be Kumswala or one of the backbenchers.
I think it will be Kumswala, because if its not, they'll have admitted they f*cked up ROYALLY by choosing those two initially for an anticipated 8 year+ run.

So the question to ask them is, knowing that they knew Biden was infirm etc, why did they lie to everyone else and say he was fine?

The prosecutors in New York have agreed to a delay in Trump's sentencing till the 24th (I think), so there can be a hearing into whether the Supreme Court decision affects the trial.
Hopefully, they are pulling away from the abyss.
OTOH, if Merchan does sentence Trump to prison on the 24th, he will be sentencing the official Republican nominee for President of the United States to prison at that point.

She probably has the best name recognition of the bunch.
I mean, she's an embarrassment, but that embarrassment is mostly relegated to right-leaning social media accounts and not being blasted unfiltered all that much in wider news channels.
It's just kind of a return to base partisan numbers with less baggage.

Whereas Buttigieg's is a ceiling, because everyone knows that lightweight and associates him with fucking up our supplychain and train infrastructure. Anyway he's even lazier than Big Mike so won't want the job.
Likewise Newsome isn't gaining points.
I think this is why the governors got Newsome and Whitmer on the same call. Also, some would rather have Bredesen from KY.

This too shall pass. Four months is a small eternity in campaign politics.
this has been the split for 5 months. It hasn't budged. Polls in swing states are the key.
Polls mean absolutely nothing right now. Nothing. They have no predictive value of who wins in November.
This is not good, and we cannot ignore it. Polling has its problems, but it's accurate in measuring trends, and post debate the trends do not favor us.
We have to come to terms that corrective action is needed while we have time.
Normal voters are not paying that much attention during summertime. Only weirdos like us.
we all expected a small dip in polling. Unfortunately the tv pundits and journalists aren’t going to let this story go away. I believe the more trump gets exposed in his rants we will see Dems and others give more support back to Biden. If dems keep fighting amongst ourselves republicans will sit back and enjoy the show.

President Biden plans to hold a meeting with Democratic governors Wednesday, CBS News has learned, as the White House and his reelection campaign work to shore up support for him after last week's shaky debate performance. Some will attend in person, while others will attend virtually.
The Biden campaign had been trying to arrange time for Vice President Harris to speak with governors, but the governors decided Monday they wanted to hear directly from the president.
"They'd like to hear from him directly before going and sticking out their necks for him again," said one of the people familiar with the plan, granted anonymity to speak frankly about them.

this is from 'salon' bu a guy named "Lucian K. Truscott IV":
So far, Joe Biden has been running as the candidate who doesn't lie and tells the truth, who will protect our democracy, and do the things that good Democrats always say they will do - provide health care, protect Social Security and Medicare, support the troops and take care of the vets, and work on the economy so there is equal opportunity for all.
But he's running against the Donald Trump of 2024, not 2020, or even the soft-focus fascist of 2016. Accusing Trump of lying every time he opens his mouth is stating the obvious, as is accusing him of extremism and racism and all the other terrible isms, including the modern-day fascism of MAGA Republicans.

If she becomes the nominee, Trump can just hire Tulsi Gabbard to follow her around everywhere beating her like a rented mule.
The thing to remember about all these poll numbers is that they, almost certainly, represent the apex. Most Americans know nothing about these people. Few politicians become MORE popular as they become widely known.

For those who say the national polls are meaningless -- they're not -- here's a guy going throug the state-by-state polling and calling the electoral college as the state polls now stand. Spoiler alert: Trump wins, and not by a little. Trump takes all of the swing states, and takes Maine and New Hampshire, too. He even takes Minnesota.
In a free and fair election. I don't think by any stretch they won't try to cheat their asses off again in this one.

I also want to point out the LA governor's race polling from last year.
The final polls (FINAL) which are supposed to be the most accurate were showing the R getting between 35-40%, meaning a runoff (LA elections are weird, it's a jungle primary nonsense).
The actual result had the R winning with 51%, avoiding the runoff and outright winning the governorship.
Polling, even when firms are actually trying, are failing horribly.

All Democrats want you to know is that their party is fine. They are terrified of Mumbles becoming the face of their party, which he is.
Imagine a (D)ementia campaign right now? Trump can't do it because it's a little too cruel but some enterprising people should be able to.
If that was a Republican up there Democrats would have immediately branded the (R)'s with it for the next 20 years. The party of Old White Demented People.
So be aware that every story you hear coming out of that festering pustule is to let you know that Democrat Party is strong as ox.

79 I still think Whitmer's percentage is a floor caused by most of the country not knowing who she even is. So: I consider her dangerous.
Whereas Buttigieg's is a ceiling, because everyone knows that lightweight and associates him with fucking up our supplychain and train infrastructure. Anyway he's even lazier than Big Mike so won't want the job.
Likewise Newsome isn't gaining points.
I think this is why the governors got Newsome and Whitmer on the same call. Also, some would rather have Bredesen from KY.
Posted by: gKWVE
Running for president, especially a truncated one is a lot more difficult than it looks and outsiders like Bredesen don't have the internal chits nor manpower to mount a race with personnel. Arguably Newsom does, Mooch would Whitmer to a lesser extent, and Cuomo would have if he had not be defenestrated. Kamala probably has it somewhat easier but only if she takes over the Biden campaign team which has not been her friend much. Wholesale firings of Biden staff put her right back with the other potential candidates except possibly regarding hard money.
This is not 1976 where a darkhorse can storm the gate nor is it the pre primary past open convention era.

Believe it was August 2021 when Tucker played that "painful" 5 minute video of Biden at a White House party where everyone shunted and shouldered him aside because Obama was there, and Biden pathetically attempted to get into the cool kids' conversations, and failed. That was nearly 3 years ago, OF COURSE THEY ALL KNEW HE WAS A VEGETABLE BACK THEN. He also told us in 2019 that China was "not a competitor" with the US, and China couldn't even build a road to reach "their mountains in the east." The only way the vegetable could win a campaign against Trump was to...CANCEL THE CAMPAIGN.

Nixon did, the second time. In 1972 he only lost MA and DC.
Reagan might have had a 50-state sweep, but MN was Mondale's home state.

The Handlers need to try much, much harder to get Old Joe to stop with the mouth half-open, blank stare/where am I? look when he is not reading from the 'prompter. It's impossible at this point, though. Maybe they need to hide Joe for three weeks so the plastic surgeons can give him a Joker-like smiling face.

With the Dem fascination with racial issues, flying in Killary to be over Kamala is not likely to be a recipe for victory. The Clinton contingent is stale, pale, and white compared with the Obama faction. Same issue with a lesser extent with Whitmer but even greater with Gruesome Gavin.
Regarding Wes Moore, it is not 2008 and even Obama had problems putting away Hillbot. Kamala is now in the Hillbot position--not particularly liked but she is already there. A price has to be paid to remove her from the ticket.
My guess is that unless Mooch gets in it, Kamala will be the reluctant choice to avoid party fratricide at a convention if Biden bows out.

I think Jill saw him do reasonably well in the prep sessions and thought he could pull it off. But medicine really is still an art as much as a science, so I'm sure they have to constantly tweak his regimen and they didn't have it exactly right on debate day. Still, seems like they would have noticed that it wasnt working in the hours before and must have had thoughts about somehow canceling.

i think part of the problem in 2022 was stupid kevin mccarthy saying that even if the repubs took the house impeaching biden was off the table, which undoubtedly got the repubs no votes and got some likely repub voters to stay home... and stupid lindsay graham calling for a national ban on abortion which probably got the repubs very few votes but motivated some people to vote dem.
and this is why the gop establishment hates trump, he just refuses to say the right things

For the media, there are only 2 options:
1. Dump Biden and make the new nominee out to be a cross between George Washington, Mother Theresa, and Michael Jordan
2. Keep Biden and gaslight harder (He was so presidential tonight! That is a man in full!)
Option 1 seems like the easier sell.

If the Dem ran Primaries instead of Caucuses Obama would never have been nominated. Hillary hammered Barry in primaries. He hammered her in Caucuses.

Congressman Wesley Hunt Reveals Jaw-Dropping Trump Story
This is amazing.
In a tense meeting with Taliban leaders, Trump declared, “I want to leave Afghanistan, but it’s going to be a conditions-based withdrawal,” before issuing a stark warning.
“If you harm a hair on a single American, I’m going to kill you,” Trump said. The translator conveyed this exact message.
Trump then “reached in his pocket, pulled out a satellite photo of the leader of the Taliban’s home, handed it to him, got up and walked out the room.”

Ford arguably lost the 1976 election because he pardoned Nixon. Biden's pardons would be likely to have the same effect if done before the fall election. After it, probably a cinch anyway.

Taking joy in the guy who was trying to rob your neighbor tripping over a fence picket and pantsing himself is not contrary to any commandment. It is because of your love for your neighbors that you delight in the ruin and embarrassment of the one who tried to harm them.

“If you harm a hair on a single American, I’m going to kill you,” Trump said. The translator conveyed this exact message.
Trump then “reached in his pocket, pulled out a satellite photo of the leader of the Taliban’s home, handed it to him, got up and walked out the room.”

In a tense meeting with Taliban leaders, Trump declared, “I want to leave Afghanistan, but it’s going to be a conditions-based withdrawal,” before issuing a stark warning.
“If you harm a hair on a single American, I’m going to kill you,” Trump said. The translator conveyed this exact message.

Joe (and Jill Biden) have absolutely no motivation or reason to willingly exit the race for reelection. I doubt they 'feel' the slightest bit of pressure to quit.
Joe knows that if he throws in the towel, the powers that be in the Dem party will immediately chaperone him into a corner, serve him some pudding, and turn his chair to face an episode of Matlock. His entire life instantly becomes irrelevant.
He knows that NO ONE will every give the smallest shit about him ever again.
So, it is highly unlikely that Joe is going to willingly bow out.
Likewise with "Dr." Jill Biden - the biggest nobody to ever be first lady. She's going to milk this status-cow for all it's worth.
Joe knows that if he throws in the towel, the powers that be in the Dem party will immediately chaperone him into a corner, serve him some pudding, and turn his chair to face an episode of Matlock. His entire life instantly becomes irrelevant.
He knows that NO ONE will every give the smallest shit about him ever again.

He used a very different tactic on the Norks, appealing to their vanity that they are better than their southern neighbors. He showed them a vision of what they could be if they chose to go that direction.
Unfortunately, he didn't get the opportunity to follow through with that vision and now he probably never will.

One purple/blue state he loses is Virginia.
We'll see about that.

I met several people from non-NoVa Virginia on my recent vacation. Given the way they talked (all went out of their way to tell me that although they were from Virginia, they were *not* from NoVa), I get the impression that, like various others, these are two different states bound together. If Biden storms NoVa hard - and he probably will, probably close to DC-levels - he could win it. I suspect he will.

Biden is probably more worried about pardons for his family and such. If he resigns, he has to do them now before the election which will further damage the Kamala campaign. Given Kamala's hatred of Biden for probably reneging on an early resignation and shitting on her in office, I don't think the Biden faction would trust Kamala to issue the necessary pardons.

(Actually, I'm not sure if she pulled the "we all know that" about the termination of insurance policies, or about the fact that Obamacare would not, in fact, reduce medical costs, as promised. I'm having trouble finding the column that so enraged me with its casualness about having withheld this information from citizens.)
I remember pointing out to various proponents of Obamacare that you can't give low cost/free insurance to hordes of people including illegals and also lower the costs of insurance...which remember is basically just a shared cost structure.
The answer was always both:
1) Of course it will
and
2) That's why we need nationalized health care!

Trumps legal team wants his NY sentencing delayed while they prepare new motions, etc. due to the SC ruling on immunity. Bragg's office said they don't object but think two weeks additional time should be enough. Lord knows what Marchan will do.

328- I’m really not. Saw a cs Lewis quote yesterday about forgiveness,and Christ’s teaching (7x70)- his point was we revisit, daily sometimes (certainly for me) the wrongs done to us (in my case betrayal and complete family abandonment) by a single person, and that we may need to remind ourselves and “reforgive” (is that even a word?) Just don’t want a heart full of hatred for anyone.. Not trying to be “holier than thou”

Ford was tainted by pardoning Nixon, and his political career ended right there
-------------
Was he? Maybe. At the end of the day, Ford ended up a member of small and exclusive club with all the trappings that being an ex-member has. Unlikely he gains access to that club in any other way.

My memory was that no one liked Ford, and no one felt they had voted for him in any ways. Also the pinch from Nixon's wage and price controls were rolling down the economy and everyone was hoping to turn it around.

Despite all that, Carter barely won. 297 to 240 electoral and 50 percent to 48 percent in popular. The mostly solid South for the Dems allowed Carter to pick off states in the Midwest and NE to win.

Nothing. Party members do their duty. Like in Red China. When the Party says, "it is expected that you mid-level Party men do X," they do "X."
Except having kids, anyway. That seems to be the one Party directive that the drones are largely ignoring.

Ford was viewed as an accidental president. He was not elected VP (Agnew had resigned), nor president (Nixon resigned). Ford made a misstep in the debate saying Poland was not under Soviet domination. Carter ran as the outsider, crisscrossing Iowa in a VW beetle. But Ford gained a lot of momentum in the last two weeks of the race. He needed a couple more days to pull it off. The electorate was much more fluid then.

from another blcokhead at salon:
The shift from a republic to a rotating tyranny was years in the making but the final blow still managed to shock: A Supreme Court that had just declared it a crime to be poor and homeless ruled that Donald Trump, previously and perhaps soon once again the world's most powerful man, cannot be prosecuted for anything that a president’s lawyer (or conservative jurist) might spin as an "official act." Legal experts say the decision effectively legalized executive criminality, ensuring that whoever occupies the White House - at least any Republican - can do as they please with the powers of their office, effectively constrained only by the threat of impeachment, which is hardly any threat at all, or a loss in a free and fair election.

I really think people are too hung up on Jill Biden. I know I am in a distinct minority on this, but she strikes me as a non-entity. She loves her position and the fame, influence and money that comes with it, but she's ultimately nothing. She has a grand vision of her own quality and importance, but it exists entirely within her head. The organization placates her because she's the Grande Dame of the family, but that only goes so far.
If the Party decides to turf Biden - and I don't think it will - then Jill is not going to be a factor. She'll be out on her ass with the rest of them. She'll screech and shriek and throw a long (possibly the rest of her life) tantrum, but she'll get little traction. Most press outlets won't talk to her per the Party's direction, and the number that *will* talk to her will shrink to nothing within a year. She'll be screaming into a vacuum.

371 Regarding pardons... Joe can get Kamala AKA the deep State, to agree to pardons after she is installed as President
Posted by: It's me donna
======
I doubt it. Joe already reneged on his promise to resign for Kamala and to run again.
Kamala and Biden don't like each other and Jill Biden particularly hates Kamala.
The Deep State is not monolithic and is factional. The Obama camp, for example view the Bidens as expendable. The Killary camp is out for the return of the queen and stamping on whoever is in the way and so on.

All stops are being pulled to save FJB. One data point: he is going to do a one-on-one with Stephanopoulos. I don't see how any of this saves him come November, assuming he gets past the Democrat convention. The open secret, the big fraud is out in the wild. There is no way he gets past that. If Biden is there in November Trump gets at least 325 electoral votes, easily more.

They will pretend no one knew how bad Joe was because of Jill to explain away their role in using Joe as a puppet for Obamas third term.

Biden is probably more worried about pardons for his family and such. If he resigns, he has to do them now before the election which will further damage the Kamala campaign. Given Kamala's hatred of Biden for probably reneging on an early resignation and shitting on her in office, I don't think the Biden faction would trust Kamala to issue the necessary pardons.
Posted by: whig at July 02, 2024 02:02 PM (/0X3E)

It is also predicated on the idea that immunity is a new concept in American caselaw. It's old.
It may be stupid, and I may hate immunity generally, but it's not new.
I think I'd be better with it if Congress made a law outlining what immunity is, when it applied, and when it didn't and to whom, but the current thing is just judicial creation. Which is decades old and has a long history in common law.

This one is tough. I agree that Yvonne De Carlo is all around hotter, but Carolyn Jones has a certain je ne sais quoi - an X factor that makes her just exude sexiness.

Carolyn Jones was married to Aaron Spelling at one time. (She's not Tori's mother, though.)

416 I really think people are too hung up on Jill Biden. I know I am in a distinct minority on this, but she strikes me as a non-entity. She loves her position and the fame, influence and money that comes with it, but she's ultimately nothing. She has a grand vision of her own quality and importance, but it exists entirely within her head. The organization placates her because she's the Grande Dame of the family, but that only goes so far.

Jill is the avatar of the Biden aides currently in high office. Changing the crew means their own ricebowl is threatened right now rather than in a transition. Plus the animus of Kamala versus the Biden team--she is going to want to bring in her own people. So, given that the polling shows about the same for all Dems, it gives the Biden faction traction to why make a change this late as it would threaten a greater disaster.
As far as Deep Staters wanting Biden offed, the curious 4yr long screening off of Biden from the ordinary WH staff which was recently reported give a clue. Biden is surrounded by loyalists from a 50 year political career and their positions depend on him rather than vague Deep State promise

It is also predicated on the idea that immunity is a new concept in American caselaw. It's old.
It may be stupid, and I may hate immunity generally, but it's not new.
I think I'd be better with it if Congress made a law outlining what immunity is, when it applied, and when it didn't and to whom, but the current thing is just judicial creation. Which is decades old and has a long history in common law.

It's actually inherent with being vested with a *power*.
Congress' role is defined. The Chief Executive role is ... everything else that is not a judiciary function.
Congress' power through law, can even define the powers of the other branches, however. So long as it does not seriously relocate powers (which pre-Chevron did).
After all the Bigger-staters wanted the government to *control* all of it.

On the factional side, yeah, probably. But Jill Biden isn't a faction. Neither is Joe. Kalorama is their faction, and she continues to exist at their sufferance. I don't think Jill is all that important - other than perhaps, as you put it, an avatar.

Dems across the board including politicians, media darlings, and doners have seemed to mostly have come to the realization that they have been exposed as the lying liars who lie. Judges have changes rulings and truth tellers formerly lying accomplices have started fessing up. Maybe the stories of the Trump administration is instilling much needed fear into them.

If the Party decides to turf Biden - and I don't think it will - then Jill is not going to be a factor. She'll be out on her ass with the rest of them. She'll screech and shriek and throw a long (possibly the rest of her life) tantrum, but she'll get little traction. Most press outlets won't talk to her per the Party's direction, and the number that *will* talk to her will shrink to nothing within a year. She'll be screaming into a vacuum.

You are correct about qualified immunity which was a doctrine from the Rehnquist court, albeit misapplied far beyond its original context. But Sovereign immunity is actually embedded into constitutional law in the US and the 11th Amendment to overrule a Scotus case threatening state sovereign immunity was in the 1790's by allowing citizens to sue state governments.
For most of this nation's history, courts of claims existed and private bills by legislatures existed to fix injustices but no formal constitutional waiving of sovereign immunity happened much until the Federal Tort Claims Act came into existence and a monumental Scotus case deriving from ammonium nitrate explosion in Texas City causing massive damage and loss of life occurred right after WWII.
Since then, many states now allow being sued but only to the extent of their insurance coverage for ordinary issues rather than the old way.

Most of the Kalorama clan except for Anita Dunn have already left the building. Whether to seek lucre or to prep for a Mooch standup possibly. Right now, most of the internal circle of Biden aides are long timers and sometimes Biden brings in ones that have left like Ron Klain back for important issues.
There has been some interesting reporting on the downlow during the last several days over just how does the Biden WH work (or not).

377 328- I’m really not. Saw a cs Lewis quote yesterday about forgiveness,and Christ’s teaching (7x70)- his point was we revisit, daily sometimes (certainly for me) the wrongs done to us (in my case betrayal and complete family abandonment) by a single person, and that we may need to remind ourselves and “reforgive” (is that even a word?) Just don’t want a heart full of hatred for anyone.. Not trying to be “holier than thou”
Posted by: Farmer Bob at July 02, 2024 02:07 PM
You are correct, forgiveness is for us, not for the person we are forgiving. It's not healthy to carry the hate around. I know you're not being holier than thou. I struggle with the same issue.

Meh, longtime deep stater due to her dad Zbignew. He had a lot of sway during the Cold War era with the IC and State Department. Unfortunately though his rotten crotchfruit lacks much of a brain and had to settle for media as a career.
Still in the party but in the marketing rather than executive faction of the Dems.

It'll be Harris. No other option.
Biden will not pass up the nomination and the delegates are committed. The only way to replace him would be to use the DNC disability clause post convention. However, can't really do that without at the same time invoking the 25th. So, with Harris as the sitting President, no one would dare challenge.
Ok, one other option. Hillary has him commit suicide in which case your guess is as good as mine who will be the nominee.

The media is FILLY CLMPLICIT in the coverup of Biden's dementia, and has been for most of his term. With the exception of Fox News, ALL major media outlets have been aware of and have hidden the truth from the American people, and are now scrambling to pretend that the problem lies elsewhere with someone who has deceived them!
This reminds me of how many the big players in Nazi Germany who thought Hitler had been assassinated by a bomb, suddenly began executing subordinates who knew too much, when the news broke that Hitler had survived!!
THEY ARE ALL LIARS, and many are even TRAITORS who know the full extent of the Biden Crime Family's international influence-peddling to our enemies!
