    You mean if Trump had pushed all his policies to fruition, but had refused to answer any press questions and media either coddled him or didn't report what he was doing, then all of his actions would have been "good" as long as he worked secretively and you never knew what he was doing.

    Thread is full of hypocrisy.
    The last president had to halt press conferences. After suggesting people inject chlorine.

    Who would ever guess members of a political forum would be partisan and biased? ;)

    Why does partisan equal hypocrite?

    Why does partisan equal no standards?

    Trump could be Adolph Literally Hitler, and it wouldn't make Joe Biden any less senile.

    These things are not mutually exclusive, and one does not cancel out the other.

    Is this a concept that you're able to grasp?

    It doesn't always. Hypocrisy depends on the individual.

    It doesn't. Some people have "higher" standards than others, on both sides of the aisle. Most people have standards. Your standards may be very different, which may lead you to label your fellow humans as hypocrites or "lacking" in standards.

    If someone told you that you had no standards due to your political opinion, you would disagree, right?

    You were justifying hypocrisy due to partisanship.
    Standards may be different. But they don't need to be lowered just to justify a certain person.
    It wrecks credibility.
    IE. Christian's can never use morals any more if they supported trump. It will ring hollow.

    Thank you for acknowledging that the current president is, in fact, senile.

    You faced the truth. I'm impressed.

    And your armchair TV diagnosis is something everyone ignores.

    It's nonsense. Just like everything else started by Trump. Trump said... That should be your first clue.

    Yes, I agreed that some partisans are very hypocritical. Other are not. Takes all kinds to make the world go 'round.

    Seems that credibility, like hypocrisy, is in the eye of the beholder, yes?

    Hmmmm....Interesting observation you have on hollow rings.

    Well then, hope you are having a blessed and happy Sunday!

    When the Chief White House correspondent for New York Times and MSNBC analyst notices Dementia Joe's lack of willingness to allow press exposure, then we can expect that Operation Install Kamala has begun.

    That's because the inside of your head is like a movie theatre that shows nothing but movies starring Trump in an endless loop.

    Relax, it takes time for the media to memorize the only questions Biden can remember.. Questions like,,,,,,,,well I'm sure he can remember some, just I can't think of any he might be able to retain.. Maybe "what color shoes you wearing today Mr President?"..

    Maybe not! Best thing to do is have him wear white gloves and what color they are!

    I'd ask him where Alligator Bird eggs come from... And how we save them from the endangered species list..
