    I just don't understand why Ax would post this?
    Typical for him to keep us all informed though.

    Thanks, Bud!!

      Poor Ax STILL hasn't figured things out. The Country Club republicans work for the political establishment, Trump works for the people. One of the reason Trump was elected in the first place was to get rid of the trash in the republucan party. It only stands to reason that theyve chosen to go hang out with the trash party.

        Maybe.
        But my bud Ax always desires to egg-on conflict from a safe distance.
        I totally respect him for that.
        And, he's consistent. 100%
        Awesome!

              Beautiful.
              Just, beautiful.

              I feel like the bunny. Poor me. Poor me and Ax, that is.

                I get it. They hate the man. I'm not all that fond of him either.

                Now, what I'd like to hear is where they disagree with him on policy rather than personality.

                Trump? Trump can be an asshole. But read through that list that Mik posted. The man has gotten some things done, many of which I support whole-heartedly.

                It took Nixon to go to China. Maybe it takes Trump to fix some of the problems we have now. What could have been, if only the Dems would have negotiated with him?

                  Former Republican Governor of Pennsylvania Tom Rich endorses Biden:

                  https://www.inquirer.com/opinion/commentary/tom-ridge-trump-biden-election-2020-vote-20200927.html

                  ... Joe Biden has the experience and empathy necessary to help us navigate not only the pandemic but also other issues that have fractured our nation, including social injustice, income inequality, and immigration reform.
                  .
                  Whether the Republican Party can restore itself or not, I don’t know. Whether it wants to or not, I don’t know that either. But what matters to me is that the core group of conservative principles I held as a young man when I cast my first vote decades ago are with me today. They are the same principles exhorted by my party’s forebears — Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan. Those principles have been indispensable to me in deciding to extend my hand of support to Joe Biden, who I believe absolutely must be America’s next president.

                    @Axtremus said in Republicans for Biden:

                    Joe Biden has the experience

                    Who was it that said that, when it comes to foreign policy, Biden has been 100% wrong - every single time. Having "experience" doesn't mean you were correct, it just means you were there. I worked with a lot of "experienced" surgeons, some of whom I wouldn't let touch my cat.

                    core group of conservative principles I held as a young man when I cast my first vote decades ago are with me today

                    What "core group of conservative principles" has the GOP abandoned, Governor? And when did that happen? During the Romney candidacy? During the Bush years? When?

                    For that matter, what, exactly, those principles?

                    [modus quirtianus]
                    Gee, George, I didn't know that Governor Rich participates on this forum. I look forward to hearing his responses.

                      Ax almost pees his panties when he finds another Never Trumper RINO say they support the democrat. But he missed the most important endorsement yesterday... a police official endorsed Biden! ...

                      No police anywhere endorses Biden? ... where was That? I'm wrong you say? NONE??? Not a single one????

                      BAHAHAHA..

                      Surely one of the 30 people that attended his last rally was a cop!... NO?????

                      Hey Ax - have you seen the size of those crowds that show up everywhere Trump holds a rally? They vote, Ax!!

                      Get ready for it, Ax - Biden is going to get his ass kicked!

                      BWAAAHAHAHAAAAAAA!

                        As I said in another forum thread, everybody has their point at which they can longer support a candidate.

                        It may be a single policy issue.
                        It may be a combination of multiple issues. Each of those alone is not enough, but all together, it is.
                        It may personal conduct
                        It may be personality.

                        What is important for Governor Rich may be/probably is different than for Larry or George K or Axtremus or me.

                        I am sure any press release is written very generic, which is pretty typical. LOL

                          Former U.S. attorneys — all Republicans — back Biden, saying Trump threatens ‘the rule of law’
                          https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/republican-us-attorneys-back-biden/2020/10/27/c1b55702-17fd-11eb-befb-8864259bd2d8_story.html

                          The letter:
                          https://www.washingtonpost.com/context/statement-of-former-u-s-attorneys-who-served-under-republican-presidents/ecd4d1ac-f10e-4ca8-a560-b2359d9b2b83/

                          Twenty former U.S. attorneys — all of them Republicans — on Tuesday publicly called President Trump “a threat to the rule of law in our country,” and urged that he be replaced in November with his Democratic opponent, former vice president Joe Biden.
                          .
                          “The President has clearly conveyed that he expects his Justice Department appointees and prosecutors to serve his personal and political interests,” said the former prosecutors in an open letter. They accused Trump of taking “action against those who have stood up for the interests of justice.”
                          .
                          The letter, signed by prosecutors appointed by every GOP president from Eisenhower to Trump, is the latest instance of Republicans backing Biden. In August, dozens of GOP national security experts signed a full-page newspaper ad endorsing Biden over Trump.
                          .
                          “He has politicized the Justice Department, dictating its priorities along political lines and breaking down the barrier that prior administrations had maintained between political and prosecutorial decision-making,” their letter says.

                            Link to video

                            Democrats are walking away from the democrat party by the tens of thousands, and you think it's news that some never Trumpers say they aren't voting for him.. lol

                            They say as much as 30% of the black vote will go to Trump this time. And the democrats have screwed the pooch with Hispanics. Your list of ne er Trumpers don't mean squat.

                              You still haven't convinced me, Ax.

                              Keep trying!! I haven't voted yet.

                              Your nonbiased sources are really helping me decide.

                              You're the best. C'mon man, THE BEST!

                              That's our Ax.

                                  Twenty former U.S. attorneys — all of them Republicans — on Tuesday publicly called President Trump “a threat to the rule of law in our country,” and urged that he be replaced in November with his Democratic opponent, former vice president Joe Biden.
                                  .
                                  “The President has clearly conveyed that he expects his Justice Department appointees and prosecutors to serve his personal and political interests,” said the former prosecutors in an open letter. They accused Trump of taking “action against those who have stood up for the interests of justice.”
                                  .
                                  The letter, signed by prosecutors appointed by every GOP president from Eisenhower to Trump, is the latest instance of Republicans backing Biden. In August, dozens of GOP national security experts signed a full-page newspaper ad endorsing Biden over Trump.
                                  .
                                  “He has politicized the Justice Department, dictating its priorities along political lines and breaking down the barrier that prior administrations had maintained between political and prosecutorial decision-making,” their letter says.

                                  20 out of how many? Is it 0.1, 1 or 10%?

                                  I just want to know whether it’s unicorn or at scale?

                                  Is that too much to ask?

                                        I'm glad to see that Mr. Flake is all for decency and civility.

                                        I'd like to see this thoughts on who he thinks is best for the country, and why.

                                        (occasional impoliteness aside, of course)

                                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                          Flake knows now that Biden will win and is thinking about what the future of the GOP looks like after the washout. Personally I don’t think it’s him but it will be the GOPs main question.
