Biden finally shot down the balloon.....well, better late than never I guess.

What I learned from all this is I barely trust Biden to decide how to handle a seemingly harmless spy balloon meandering over the country, god forbid something more pressing in danger occurs.

Likewise, I would pay money to peek into an alternate universe and see what crazy way Trump would've handled the balloon situation had he won re-election.

Bottom line: Please let literally anyone else run for President. A Biden/Trump contest would be 3 years in a row of two abysmally horrible candidates running for the top spot.

Pretty sure the reason they didn't shoot it down until now is that something the size of a couple buses falling at terminal velocity in an unpredictable debris radius (like it's not so simple as just drawing a straight line down from its location in the air) was considered undesirable if, god forbid, it landed on people/buildings.

So because he didn't rashly act in regards to something inconsequential, you don't trust him to act quickly when something actual dangerous and alarming occurs

it's moreso about the individual. I wouldn't trust that old geezer with managing my bank account much less running a country. Thankfully he doesn't do it alone, but hey, if you trust grandpa Joe to have a coherent train of thought for longer than 5 minutes, then more power to you.

I really dont buy the case that DeSantis is some electoral juggernaut. The guys a douche without any of the unique appeal that Trump had to offset it. Hell win back some of the never Trump conservatives, but I dont think hed actually be especially appealing to swing voters.

I occasionally post in this politics topic. Maybe a few times a year. I always regret it.

Edit: But yes, I have made up my mind about Biden already, and I suppose it was just me musing about how during the balloon incident, while news reports indicated Biden was discussing with his cabinet about how to handle the balloon, I realized that I didn't even feel confident in Biden handling this trivial of an issue, much less anything more dire. Not asking anyone to agree with that or stating it as any sort of objective truth. I was just sharing my personal feelings.

If Biden stays alive and somewhat functional as a public figure, he's a huge favorite against either Desantis or Trump.

No way, Desantis beats Biden easy.

Biden almost lost to Trump, who is one of the least popular political figures of all time.

I think Biden handled thisappropriately?

They basically came out and said yeah its likely a spy balloon but we dont have reason to believe its substantially better than the low orbit satellites the Chinese are already using and blowing it up is more of a risk due to the debris then the benefit would be to removing it. And then when it was safe to do so they destroyed it?

Like if you want to come in here and be like Biden sucks for x like 90% of us would agree with that. Its just you picked a dumb thing to jump on.

Also didnt it suddenly turn at one point proving it had more control than initially suspected?

If anything I would think it was shot down too soon as shooting it down is a fairly aggressive action.

It's not just ok--but extremely cool to talk about how much Joe Biden sucks.

But not shooting down a balloon full of metal the size of 3 school busses that's 66,000 feet above people and infrastructure is fine.

There are spy satellites that can read people's t-shirt's, what exactly do you think this balloon could even do?

Do you think shooting it down and blasting deadly debris in a multiple mile radius is cool? If someone died from that, would it still be worth it?

In short:
You sound dumb.

Biden beat Trump as the challenger. He's now the sitting President, and historically that matters. Also, it would take some incredible circumstance for Trump to sit quietly by without attempting to torch Desantis and the entire election. Trump has already announced his candidacy - kicking and screaming (and dragging all Republicans down with him) is the *only* way he knows how to go down.

Which Republican candidate do you prefer? The other choices were literally Mike Pence, Donald Trump, and Ron Desantis. Not that I care to prove to be a "moderate" or care about your opinion when you and 2-3 others have already dropped the shroud in just saying stupid shit to try and elicit responses.

Nikki is a more mainline republican in comparison to the bonkers some on the right have gone lately. She politically has the right acumen and measure she carried herself in. She has shown she is willing to try and bridge differences in opinions, yet also has backbone to back away when it becomes too far against what she is willing to accept despite the political ramifications. She is able to tell who should be her own allies to shove it if they go too far. I like that about her.

I don't understand how I am supposed to compare her stances to the others when the field hasn't materialized yet and their campaign stances for this election haven't been shown yet.

Generally my stances fall in line with Trump a lot. If you could put some of his stances with a good temperament, it would go along way. As of right now, Nikki is probably the best choice of the lot presented. She is a good candidate. Like I said, we will see. There is probably 20 more coming.

We are talking about America here. If you talk about other countries suddenly everything is different. I read an article the other day about Frances center left party condemning American Wokeness

Im sure you would consider France fairly liberal in most cases, but they have some isolated extremely conservative French culture values. Same with many other countries you would normally consider leftist

Found it
