Thanks for the response, Gamble. Sorry I am not able to format like you. Here are my thoughts after hearing yours.
1. The president has stated on several occasions that the virus is a hoax and will disappear in April, or after the election. Do you believe it is a hoax?
No. I never believed the virus was a hoax. That said, instead of playing BuckFalls's game of guess the date, just give me the last time Trump said that. Remember, Nancy Pelosi paraded through ChinaTown mocking Trump and inviting people to party while Trump was closing air travel to China.
I am not aware of the last time Trump made the comment that it was a hoax. In my view in just watching him he created a lack of faith in career experts in the matter, and their warnings that have since clearly come to fruition. To further complicate the matter mask wearing was politicized and he showed no attempt to lead by example. There is no news source needed to confirm or deny this. All that was needed was to watch what he said and how he acted. I can't get past the extent to which he mishandled this situation. The Woodward tapes are another example of something that I am absolutely fascinated that supporters can simply discount.
2. The russians have been implicated in a variety of things including a hack, a bounty, and a poisoning. Do you view this a fake news since the president has not ever come out and condemned any of these actions?
I am concerned as all Americans should be in regard to the recent hack. That said, WE don't work in USA cyber security. I think it goes without saying that this problem is being addressed by Trump and Radcliffe. Why do the people not demand free and fair elections, but then demand to have all of the details of the hack made public information?
Thanks again for the response. I am not sure it addressed what I asked. I am having trouble understanding how career intelligence agents have continually made a case of Russian interference and yet he will not acknowledge and instead erodes trust in these institutions. Your response also did not address the other two examples that were provided. These are a small sample set of the multitude of transgressions that have been identified by our intelligence agencies. A person who has no dog in the fight would most certainly have alarm bells ringing as to why there is a lack of response.
3. Do you believe all the courts, many of them with republican appointed judges ad election officials are all complicit in this conspiracy to steal the election?
I DO believe that hundreds of thousands of critical votes in swing states were stolen on behalf of Biden. I believe Supreme Court Justice Roberts influenced Jr. Justices, voiced a distain for Trump, and expressed a desire to avoid a civil war. As I said in other threads here, judges are human and are subject to bias. I believe there is bias in our highest state courts as well. No doubt.
I find this belief to be frightening at the very least. If this is going to be the belief of a large portion of our society, even when no evidence has been provided, our country will soon cease to exist as it is. When people do not even believe their own parties assertations that election were clean we are in trouble. To this day no evidence has been provided. Saying something on a Qanon web site or during the Tucker Carlson show does not make it real. Without trust in our courts we will cease to exist. Dangerous indeed.
