This has already been addressed. What's your point? That it's ok for Trump to be a draft dodger because Biden was? The biggest difference in my mind is that Biden never denigrated our military. (By the way, I wasn't voting for Biden when he was in the race. ) Wait a minute!! Haven't you heard? Biden isn't the candidate anymore.

“Clinton got a high draft lottery number”. - Nice try! The draft lottery was held on December 1, 1969. Clinton was already 23 years old. As 18 year olds were being drafted how did Mr Clinton avoid the draft from the age of 18 to 23? Deferments, machinations with various people in power (pub and dem) and luck. But he did go through the lottery. Check your "Snopes" source. They have the entire sordid trail. What does being 23 years old have to do with it? I know a number of folks that were in their 20's who were drafted.

They were grabbing 18 year olds right out of high school. I remember plenty of guys to “college” just to avoid the draft. It was a way to “dodge”.
If he was not called between 18 and 23 he had to be dodging.

If he was not called between 18 and 23 he had to be dodging. We've already established that. Again, for your edumacation, Clinton had a high lottery number. (From YOUR source for verification.) "The saga began when an eighteen-year-old Bill Clinton entered Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service in the fall of 1964. As required by law of all 18-year-old males at the time, Clinton registered with the Selective Service System on 8 September 1964, and on 17 November 1964 he was assigned a 2-S (student deferment) classification by Garland County [Arkansas] Draft Board No. 26." "....on 16 February 1968 the federal government eliminated draft deferments for most graduate students, and Clinton would therefore no longer be eligible for additional student deferments after he completed his final term at Georgetown in the spring of 1968. Accordingly, his draft board reclassified him 1-A (available immediately for military service) on 20 March 1968." "When the first draft lottery of the Vietnam era was held on 1 December 1969, Clinton's birthdate of 19 August was selected 311th, a number high enough to practically guarantee that he would not be drafted (and indeed he was not)." www.snopes.com/fact-check/clinton-draft-pardon/

Yes. College to avoid the draft. Typical of the people that had money back then.

Thwarted? You seem to have a strange understanding of the meaning of that word. Big Meanie is still in the race, while Brandon is no longer his partie’s choice. If you flipped your scenario around, it would be a better match with reality. They have been planning their attacks against Biden thereby he thwarted their plan. past tense: thwarted; past participle: thwarted prevent (someone) from accomplishing something. "he never did anything to thwart his father" oppose (a plan, attempt, or ambition) successfully. Nope looks like I had it “write” Thanks. But I’m still waiting for you to explain how Biden dropping out of their campaign has anything to do with the word “thwarted”, as it pertains to Big Meanie. Logic would tell me that Biden’s candidacy was the only one thwarted. His party has made it plain (even to him) that they don’t want him running any longer.

FF45 spent all his opposition research the last 3+ years on taking Biden out now he has 1 month before early voting starts to dig up dirt on Kamala or just keep calling her names because that resonates with women

If only they were about to have a big national meeting, spell all that out, and present it both verbally and in writing, to the entire country, over four nights. You know, the way it's supposed to be done.

Why is the felon scared to debate Kamala...his dementia and racism and misogyny would be on display or he's just too dumb...all of the above. The DA knows how to deal with criminals.

Question for the liberals. Do you think that anyone who may vote for Trump is a MAGA fanatic or that they just might not like the alternative?

I don’t think everyone who votes for Trump is a fanatic. Same way people who were going to vote for Biden aren’t evil communists. Trump runs on conservative policies and I can understand why people would choose him over a liberal.

My best friend is a Trumper, I’d take a bullet for the guy. We just agree to disagree. We did find common ground on Haley but that ship sailed. To be honest I’m ready for this shit to be over, no matter which way it goes.

MAGA is the best thing going. But , at least now, the lefties on here have someone forced on them to support. Unlike Biden ,whom they seemed to be ashamed of mentioning his name on here, they can now talk up and show how proud they are of their new girl. It should be a whole new ballgame on here if they want to do something besides just attacking Trump and his supporters. I hope it's not the same old boring shit from them. And her name is Harris in case they forgot.
