Can't we all just agree that ...

[ionel]

... there will be no mean tweets in the next Presidential term ... ok but maybe some nasty Xs.  

[ionel]

... it would be grand if we could vote to disallow any previous Presidents from running next term.

I’d prefer it be nobody who has held any public office… RFK vs Vivek.

That's not even possible.  For that to happen there would have to be no MSM.  They would have to go the way of FloArena.

Can we have the following....PLEASE?!?!?!

Term limits, no bi-party, equal $$ for each candidate, equal airtime for each candidate, can only speak to what their policies would be when doing commercials and on the campaign trail, politicians paid and fired based on performance-based metrics created and revised by the citizens of the US (fired outside of election years)

how about a salary cap for each party.

[Scouts Honor]

how  about, each dollar to a candidate... a matching dollar goes to a charity of the other party

[mspart]

They'd figure out how to funnel the charity money back to them.

What do you think is going on with Ukraine?

A war that is destabilizing eastern Europe as well as the global food supply, and also threatens NATO involvement and potential nuclear weapons use.

(Which is all, a much bigger deal than the notion that charity money won't be used 100% as it should be. A risk that exists and is true for all charity money.)

Destabilizing the U.S.A. as well.

The USA, as we Americans call it, will be fine.

But if you insist on continuing the conversation... we can go on, there are more. Those f'ing Russians are messing up a whole lot of what this global economy runs on. Smaller countries will hurt, and poor countries are going to suffer. 

The hell of the thing is that the f'ing Russians don't have ANY good reason to do it. NONE. ZERO. Aside from stealing Ukranians stuff, of course. Which isn't a GOOD reason, it's an evil one.

No, no, that was not what was said. 

Offthemat is a dopey poster trying to cause trouble with no basis. Political troll. (Maybe worse.)
