Or four years ago and for the four years since the last election. ''Not OUR president''. All the wailing and screaming tantrums that haven't let up since.

I spoke poorly about Trump’s compassion and morality for quite some time. You’ll find that my complaints about Trump were in response to your direct questioning and not voluntarily offered otherwise.

Go through my posts and you’ll find no mention of the president in the last 25 posts. Maybe there’s something to what you’re saying in earlier posts. You’ll also find posts in support of the normalcy of Trump’s supporters. And there were posts that were equally applicable to Trump’s supporters and detractors, posts which explicitly stated they applied to everyone.

My attitude has not changed in the last two months or the last two decades. I have not expressed what you call conciliation at every turn, but I have long asked, “Can’t we all just get along?”

Please do. I reviewed my last 25 posts before replying. You may be generalizing me with others who have consistently behaved that way.

If the Republicans maintain the senate while winning the House in two years, then they can impeach Biden for Russian interference. Trump will run again and if we get handle on corrupt mail in ballots, we'll be back to square one

The scenario will hold in the future inasmuch as if he doesn’t win in 2024 he can still run in 2028.

Well in 2024 he will still be a spring chicken by American political standards.
Joe Biden's face is pulled so tight that it's practically transparent.

Well if they did that, Fox News would have to straighten up their act as much as any of the other channels. I doubt the people at Fox News would agree to that.

As far as the media not being "impartial", what would you like to see done differently in the reporting of the news? For example, would you like to see stories such as police shootings of unarmed civilians not reported, or less reported on in favor of other stories? Or how should the media report on things that are controversial or even perhaps morally unjust in a way that they are not currently doing? Or what is an example of a story that the media has reported on inappropriately?

I mean, if the news didn't report on things like police shootings (going with that example) or other controversial subjects then they would be accused of deliberately avoiding reporting on controversial subjects and thus accused of being biased.
