I don't support the TPA personally, but I sure as he!! don't want Newsom in charge of the country. As a matter of fact, I'd like to see him get the boot in Cali, so the Californias stop coming to Colorado and Californicating Colorado.

Why would you not support the TPA? without it, the government can pass just about any tax bill they want without the consent of the citizens.

Because shyt like this screws up the Colorado budget. They have guaranteed pay raises for certain civil servants, TABOR is similar to TPA here and I'm not impressed. We elect officials, how about they just do their freakin jobs and figure this stuff out.

Biden is getting out debated. That open mouth gaze isn't helping him either.

 

[Old_Slapper]

Even the moderators, at the very beginning, mentioned that the economy is terrible, and Biden still claims the economy is the best ever.

Then Biden talks about the high unemployment when he took office. It was COVID that put people out of work.
Then Biden is trying to take credit for people going back to work after businesses opened back up.

What a joke!

I wonder why Biden refused a drug test. If a drug test was so ridiculous, then he would agree to it just to throw it in Trump's face.

Biden claims many other countries greatly respect him and fear him. Then why do all these other powerful countries make comedy memes about him?
