Anyone notice the Democrat tactic of removing Trump from ballots? Democrats actually think they are in charge of who Republicans are allowed to vote for. Republicans THEY approve of. How can there be FAIR elections if Democrats are allowed to tell you who you can or cannot vote for?

Unreal. Biden and Clinton get to do whatever they want, but not Trump. They pull every excuse out for the members who are in "the club."

"WASHINGTON — Special counsel Robert Hurhas declined to prosecute President Joe Biden for his handling of classified documents but said in a report released Thursday that Biden’s practices “present serious risks to national security” and added that part of the reason he wouldn't charge Biden was that the president could portray himself as an "elderly man with a poor memory" who would be sympathetic to a jury."

Biden won't be charged in classified docs case; special counsel cites instances of 'poor memory'

The decision caps off a yearlong saga and means Donald Trump remains the only president in history to face criminal charges.

Our country is fried. How the motherf*cking god damn hell has Biden not been 25th'd or impeached?

If they don't charge Biden then Trump's off the hook. Dems have been questioning Trump's cognitive abilities from the get go. Guess he can use the same excuse to get off .

Just sayin'....so who benefits? Please inform us, is this how Bidenomics works?

If everyone owns stocks, then everyone benefits when business is good.
Even if they don't own stock, they benefit working for a publicly traded company when business is good.
Even if the company they work for is not publicly traded, they benefit when business is good.
When business is good, even MORE people can benefit because there will be more jobs.

The GDP is up during this administration.
The stock market is up during this administration.
The economy is better during this administration.

Those are bad things?

“According to the indictment, he not only refused to return the documents for months, but he also obstructed justice by enlisting others to destroy evidence and then to lie about it.”
“In contrast, Mr. Biden alerted authorities, turned in classified documents to the National Archives and the Department of Justice in 2022 and 2023, consented to the search of multiple locations including his homes, permitted the seizure and review of handwritten notebooks he believed to be his personal property, and in numerous other ways cooperated with the investigation.”
Of course, Trump even lied about THIS situation: “I was cooperative with the Investigators. Crooked Joe Biden didn’t — Just the opposite, following the usual, corrupt Democrat Playbook,” Trump claimed, despite prosecutors’ statements that he failed to turn over documents.

What’s the difference between the Trump and Biden classified documents investigations?

The Hur report said Trump’s case was different from Biden’s because the former president allegedly “obstructed justice” after being given chances to return classified documents.

Yep. Identical situations.

Doesn't change the fact Biden is clearly a national security risk, no matter how much you hate Trump.

That's a separate discussion. This is about the economy.
Do you think a good economy is a good thing, or a bad thing?
Or do you not care because you get money regardless?

And Trump is obviously a bigger security risk. He thinks he has absolute immunity and can do whatever he wishes. Not good.

I was responding to the classified investigations thing you posted. I love the immediate insult. You can't say anything without insulting someone or trying to start a dirty fight between people's characters. You're disgusting.

Biden is on stage giving speeches saying he's been talking to dead leaders of foreign nations. This guy has classified files, Biden has the NUCLEAR FOOTBALL RIGHT NOW AND HE'S TELLING THE WORLD HE'S TALKING TO DEAD FOREIGN LEADERS. He can't even find his way off a stage, yet somehow him having classified documents and knowing the secrets a president knows is somehow less dangerous than Trump. All these wars started when Biden took over, and he's clearly not running the country, so the who the f*ck is, Rob?

You know, all these things people hate Trump for before he was president apparently didn't matter to the left even when so many Democrats had no problem hanging out with him and staying at his properties. As soon as he ran as a Republican, they turned on him and now all those things they were cool with they are using against him. What a bunch of hypocritical *******.

Why should a potential defense strategy dictate charges being brought...seems like the doj playing favorites to me...

"You can't say anything without insulting someone or..." "You're disgusting."

"I can't fix stupid, so I expect this to go on."
" This is stupid and lame and you should've known this years ago."
" You're just far behind in the way the statistics were counted "
"you don't understand the mRNA tech and the research from everywhere "
"You still don't get how much damage everything about covid did and how it's still unfolding today. Idk how to explain it to you any further."

And on and on and on. The irony is palpable.

As for Biden being incompetent, incapable, and leading us to doom. You want to replace him with Trump?
A convicted criminal who is facing charges for causing insurrection. A guy who has been impeached twice. A guy who bankrupts businesses left and right.
Good logic.

Attorneys do it all the time. They hedge their bets on both the prosecution side and the defense side.

So your saying the stockmarket drives the economy???

The stock market vs. the economy: Why they’re different and what it means for you | Money Under 30

The stock market and the economy are not the same. The economy is the production and consumption of goods, while the stock market is a collection of shares of public companies. The economy is much larger than just the stock market.

The stock market is not the economy

But, yes, the two are related. And that relationship can get pretty interesting.

The S&P 500 is Not the Economy - A Wealth of Common Sense

Technology stocks make up nearly 24% of the S&P 500. And that number is probably understating things since many of the biggest companies aren’t technically in the tech sector. Amazon and Tesla are two of the biggest holdings in the consumer discretionary sector. Facebook, Google and Netflix are...

The wealthy acquire more wealth.....Bidenomics at work....that explains why all elite dummycrats follow along blindly with all this current BS....its all about the $$$, right? And why are companies with rising stock numbers laying off large numbers of their workforce?

SO.... the american people are supposed to forget about all the negative impacts of Biden's policies on their life because wealthy companies/individuals are doing great in the stockmarket?
