This Border situation is crazy. Texas can lay their barbwire barrier etc. They just can’t stop the Feds from removing it. So will Biden order its removal? Will Texas just replace it? Will Texas et al stop the Feds from removing it? Wild times.

Sounds like you’ve become a single issue voter, my friend!

Just one issue that affects me more than perhaps any other issue being talked about in the media.

Hard to believe that there’s not a viable 3rd party option for this one. Apparently, no one wants it. So we’re left with a pair of overexposed 80 somethings.

As has been the case for decades, there will never be a viable 3rd Party Candidate until there is a viable 3rd Party. It HAS to start at the City and State level. Moving up to Gov Rep and Senator. Otherwise you get with what we had with Trump. Both Parties fighting the President and their policies

Or as one Chinese taxi cab driver in a 2016 trip to the Great Wall said, "you have 300 million people and those two are the best you have? I'm so sorry for you."

I mean, Jesse Ventura was with the Reform Party and elected governor of Minnesota.

Because he had no Party support in the MN House. Which will only be magnified in a White Ouse / Congress situation

Texas poltical ads are a different beast. Provides some laughs. That's for sure. Kind of like @TH Spangler :lol:
Nearly every other commercial in the evenings is either a Bob Good or John McGuire ad. I had all but forgotten the Texas political ads, and I also never voted in Texas either lol.

Yeah I'm still registered in Florida since I'm still active duty and that's my home of record. Though I'm tempted to change that as I'm not entirely pleased with the local government reps. Which in reality have far more impact on my day to day life then whatever old man is voted into the white house.
