The difference is you are guessing, we can give actual evidence to the contrary.

The "actual evidence" you refer to is ultimatly a subjective indicator.  No matter how much you try, you still cannot make this a non-opinion question.

Agreed, his reasoning for why this is a right leaning website is about as sound as if I said its left leaning because I don't agree with what ptown, gut, Central, et al have always said.

And you may very well hold his opinion.  I can disagree with it, but I can't "prove" it with "actual evidence".  It's subjective.

So I saw a clip on a TYT vid where it shows the Morning Joe cast saying that anybody who questions Kamala's policies are anti-anti-Trump; and nobody should be questioning her about anything at all.


Anti-anti-Trump is a thing now, I guess. 

The vid I watched, for full context:

They are all in lockstep on 'nobody questioning her'.  


Planned, purposeful, and controlled.

Is anyone dealing with bringing in product overseas and the potential strike at the ports on the East coast.  The strike is supposed to start on the first. They are refusing to negotiate right now. It’s going to create a shitshow for the holidays because of shortages. Right now it’s looking like things currently being shipped have two options route to the west coast which will take about an additional two months or let us sit at the ports on the East coast until they re open but then they will be over congested so who knows how long delays will be. For shipments leaving China you can reassign them to the west coast so it won’t be to bad but orders from other countries are fucked. Companies are going to have to choose to accept the delays or flight products over at crazy costs. 


Our sources are saying Biden plans to support the unions because he wants to appear strong for them but this is going to cause product shortages and increase prices. I’m surprised their going to let this happen in an election year.

This is very much affecting my New Orleans operation.

I don’t work in consumer goods anymore, but we have a sizable port here that will be impacted. I’ve seen some articles in the local paper and it seems a bit much to be asking for 77% pay raises over 6 years, and that they haven’t negotiated since June. The other ask which is absurd is to hinder as much automation as they can. So yea unions have definitely helped their workers, to the detriment of everyone else.  Could cause some serious issues if it lasts more than a few weeks.

Well the Dems voted to bust up the rail strike in California two years ago.

I'm sure a special someone from a middle class family will be able to handle it.

So, I think we all agree that when it comes to the polling, Kamala is blowing Trump out of the water when it comes to abortion.

So, with that in mind, how much does the immigration issue mitigate that?

So I watched this so you don't have to.

Contents:

- she again tells the story about how she grew up middle class

- blames Trump because it's Wednesday 

I've literally had more substantive beer belches. God, I hope she wins.

It's obvious why she hasn't held a press conference since being selected, and has just 2 puffball interviews. 

She may more moron than Marxist; hard to tell.

This ass clown is supposed to be the leader of the free world and he's fanning the flames with this shit. No wonder everyone is trying to take out Trump when the useless POTUS is encouraging it along with the media, and Democrats, and all of the other mouth breathing liberals....

After Kamala flew him over in a US airplane to do campaigning for her in PA?

Trump said he could wrap up the war ~24 hours after being elected.  Maybe Zelensky was curious how that’d work.

Well, Kamala is already part of the current administration. In fact, Biden has said that he's long since delegated authority to her for both foreign and domestic policy. So it would make sense to meet with her. 

So, is Zelensky just hedging bets in case Trump wins in November?
