I’m no Trump fan, and I completely agree with your sentiment, but that would have been absolutely hilarious.

Or are they only "partisan" if held by your political opponents/politicians you don't like? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strangely this non-third-world-migrant, QAnon fan and Republican candidate is not in jail.. Quote Three years ago, Delaware's now-Republican candidate for U.S. Senate sat unresponsive within a car parked in a busy Tennessee intersection. Inside the car was heroin, methamphetamines and a handgun, according to court documents. Outside were police officers with their guns raised. Lauren Witzke's troubled past involved trafficking illegal drugs between Detroit and Tennessee at the orders of a Mexican criminal organization, she says. It was a result of struggles with addiction, sometimes using drugs and sometimes selling them, she says. Sometimes, she would deal in drivers licenses and birth certificates as payments, she says – credentials that would be distributed by cartels to people living in the country illegally. But on a Friday morning in August 2017, Witzke's criminal life appears to have ended with an arrest and six subsequent criminal charges. Today, the 32-year-old is a politician gaining national fame on the far-right after Delaware Republicans picked her last Tuesday as their candidate to run against Democratic U.S. Sen. Chris Coons in November. Edited October 11, 2020 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course government buildings should not be used for partisan purposes. Edited October 11, 2020 by Granny Danger 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's known as pulling a Hunter Biden. Delaware is the worst state by far.

Detournement Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 So if Trump has beat Covid that's him Boris, Bolsonaro and Berlusconi all survived it.

Like most countries we have controls on election spending so people like Mhari Black and Douglas Alexander don’t have to spend all the time between elections running around shaking a tin to finance an arms race against each other.This is probably a good thing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
